This past weekend, after a few months of procrastination and dumbness, I managed to get a pilot file editor working. This first version doesn't allow you to edit all the aspects of the pilot file; instead, it focuses only on "ship attributes" such as ship name, ship type, outfits, weapons, fighters, and escorts present.

I plan on adding the ability to edit "universe attributes" in the second version (last stellar visited, exploration state of systs, etc), but I'd like feedback on what I've got.
If all goes well, the final version (version 3) will allow you to edit everything but active mission information.

It should work for both EV and EVO pilot files (though I've only tested it for EVO pilot files). The only drawback is that I used AppleScript in making the app (sorry). It may only work under OS9. Anyway, that's why I'd like feedback.

People can download it from (url="http://"http://phair.csh.rit.edu/~seant/EV/PFEv1.sit.hqx")http://phair.csh.rit...V/PFEv1.sit.hqx(/url)

Please post comments to the EV Developers Corner web board.

Enjoy.
