    • What do I need ?


      What do I need to make plugins fo EVO ? I'd like to make my own ships but all i have is ResEdit. is there anything i can do with it?

    • Yes. You can make really low quality, pixely graphics with Clarisworks. 🙂
      Anything else and you'll probably need a real graphics program.

      Resedit isn't for making graphics. It's the programing tool.

    • With ResEdit you can only do, well, just about everything! Download the bible and it will tell all. To make life a little easier, get EV-Edit, Schmelta-V,and EVO Developer's Map as well. They'll really save you some time.

    • I got the EV-Edit program but it doesn't recognize any of the file i try to open. Is there a certain image type it has to be?

      ResEdit is absolutely essential for making plug-ins; but you cannot make ships (that is the graphic elements that are displayed in the game) with ResEdit. The acyual ship resources that determine a ship's size, speed, armament, etc. can be made with ResEdit. For creating ship graphics you need a 3D rendering program like Infini-D and an image editing program such as Photoshop - at leat that is what I am told by people that know about such things.
