I use Mechanisto and it is a lot friendlier thant the interface first appears.
I've got a ship an the image board a while back, a decent model - the first ship I ever made - but it could've done with a bit of a better texturing job! Anyway, there are plenty of tutorials around, find them, pick out the pieces of information you need and away you go. I'd put up some of my stuff but alas no webspace.

Don't think like that, hey I know Factions isn't going to be as popular or as impressive as SFA or SS but that doesn't mean I'm going to give up! It will have its charm and there will be those who like it and those who don't and thats cool by me. I'm not going to lose any sleep at night worrying that a plugin someone built in there spare time is more popular than one I did in my spare time.
Sure SS andd SFA are going to be big and polished but if everyone else gives up then they're going to get pretty boring, I mean you can make it as variable as possible but there is a finite number of times you can play a plugin before it just gets tiresome and thats where other plugins come in. As good as FH was I couldn't play it at the expense of all other plugins, it was brilliant but it wasn't infinite.

to end this rant (as it is now becoming) don't be intimidated by larger, more popular plugins, just get out there and make your own little piece of EV history!

Me is impressed. Very useful to probably all but me, I'm stuck with Photoshop 2.1.3 (from waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in 1993). No layers for me, still when I do my overhaul of software I'll have to have that handy for reference.

Psyg redid the lot. The ones you would've seen pale in comparison. When he puts them up be ready to be amazed... more.

A strange idea (yes another one from the twisted mind of sam), if you are on PC, you could use..... Super Dupa Music Lupa! We used it in school for our compositions. You get pretty good quality sounds for something that costs $5 Aus. And I don't mean they are ****, there good quality and you can hack it and add your own loops (my music teahcer got confused that I had all these loops he didn't). The only problem a far as I can see would be converting it to snd resources.

You can do a whole lot of stuff with it, its not bad.

Don't worry Mazca, it doesn't concern you

I thought that one of Bomb's plugs must have crashed the guys computer and erased his hard drive or something like that!

Have to correct you here. There are at least two teams of more than three who have the determination and commitment to follow through and finish their TC's (both are actually Total Conversions rather than partial conversions) one is Sephil Saga, the other is Factions. I'm pleased to be a member of both teams

The others just don't have the same feel.

Then be happy. There was not a single bug in any bit of mc before the galaxy editor. I think it would have been better if he had released the galaxy editor seperately as it brought a problem with saving along with it as well. It is a real shame because otherwise there isn't a single thing wrong with the program.

He has a fair few posts on Ev-nova.net, just not here. Though I do admit the ads are a pain.
