I'd just like to take a moment and let people know about a project underway that is working on a Star Trek plugin for EV3.

If you are interested,
Please visit the site at: (url="http://"http://stevdevelopers.tripod.com/")http://stevdevelopers.tripod.com/(/url)

Thanks.

Well, there are already several STEV's released or in production. You may want to look at some of the others before continuing yours, and make sure you aren't doing things that havn't already been done...

PRECISELY! That's exactly the goal of this project... It will unite all developers so that we may all work together.

Well, if there's any room in this, I would love to help! I thought I was working on a project, but my partner dropped out, so I"m anxiously looking for a project, and I love Star Trek, so if there's any room, count me in. (I do models )

just reply on here, or give me an e-mail if you want to see some of my work.

For the record, there are 3-4 Star Trek plug-ins being developed. Myself and Metzen have true working versions out, mine is in beta with missions being de-bugged and written/programmed. Metzen's has very nice graphics, and last I heard, he was working on missions. I haven't any further info other than that. Whitestar had his Star Trek plug (Whitestar Rising) in development for a few years now, and I helped him out with a galaxy about a year back, and haven't heard much since. Zeta also had one going, but I'm not sure if that's burining in space or not.

I would give you links to screenshots, but Geocities is f*cked up and snapzpro 2 needs to be registered...

PEACE YO!™

As an FYI for the time being my version of STEV/O has been abandoned till I can sort through some issues here at home.

I think it's needless to say that I'm extremely strapped on time to do anything I like till I get out of a little jam I put myself into

I am enthralled to hear everyone so interested in helping with such a plugin.

ANYONE who is interested, PLEASE visit our project site, contribute in our discussions, and perhaps even contribute some of your work so that we can work together.

That old saying holds true, being as patriotic as I am, "United we stand, Divided we fall."

My vision is that, where one developer leaves off, another can take their place. We've seen in that past where someone who has something great seems to fall of the face of the Earth... Well, when we work together we can eliminate this problem by communicating and letting each other know what the heck is going on...

Please, by all means visit the site at (url="http://"http://stevdevelopers.tripod.com/")http://stevdevelopers.tripod.com/(/url) and contribute.

Thanks.

Well seeing that I am a Star Trek freak and I would like to help count me in. By the way I was wondering since its going on to the EVN that will you beable to make the Prometheus seperate and be 3 ships like in Voyager?? You know the only reason I ask this is because the Bible says how ship parts can move if firing so if you could trick the computer to think that when you fire the ship will look like 3 but maybe still be one?
Something like that.

I would be happy to help, I don't knowexsactly now what your wplu-in is like (ihaven't gotten to look at your site yet) But I would bhe glad to help in what ever EV game you're planning to make the star trek plug for, I'm not so great with star trek itself, But I would enjoy helping with the building the plugin.I would be happy to create whatever someone told me to, even if I don't understand the story behind it.

Have you ever heard of a saftey on that GUN?!

Just an Update:

Our site has moved to a better host: (url="http://"http://odin.prohosting.com/~stevn/")http://odin.prohosting.com/~stevn/(/url)

And more importantly: I have setup a new improved we board that everyone is welcome to visit and share their thoughts and comments at: (url="http://"http://odin.prohosting.com/~stevn/cgi-bin/ikonboard/ikonboard.cgi")http://odin.prohosti...d/ikonboard.cgi(/url)

(If you aren't a STEV developer you will have to post on the general discussion board)

Again, everyone is invited to take a peek at our project, and we are still looking for experienced developers who are also knowledgable about the Trek universe. Please visit the site at (url="http://"http://odin.prohosting.com/~stevn/")http://odin.prohosting.com/~stevn/(/url)

Thanks again everyone!

Word.

You will be able to have a ship change into another when a weapon is fired. So you simply have the Prometeus launch 1 part of the ships and change into another. Then that part launchs the last component. Viola you have 3 ships from 1. Easy to do.

The weapon firing animation only changes the ships graphic for two seconds at a time before it reverts to its original state. However, using the totally excellent shän resource, the ship sprite can change depending on whether or not you have launched any craft from your vessel. It would be exactly like the Prometheus in that respect.

Oh, and I've signed up for the boards, but there are no posts outside the developers section, and no members that aren't developers!

Damn, and I can't fix that.
