All right, I have FINALLY figured out how to make a plug-in. ResEdit is one of the most difficult things I've ever tried to handle. My Dad wouldn't let me use it for the longest time (said I'd hose my system) but now he finally trusts me with it. So I'm making a plug-in. I'm going to call it "Lost Empires" or something to that effect, not sure yet, but the basic premise is that the supposedly-extinct ancient civilizations from earth didn't die, they simply went to space :). (i.e., the Inca, Maya, Egyptians, and even a few nasties like perhaps Nazis) I'm working on the missions and all, and that part I understand, but I am completely lost when it comes to making my own ships. I need ships that can reflect the plotline I'm trying to get across. You know, advanced, but still reflecting the style of the cultures. I'm looking for someone who's a good artist, can design ships, and tell me how the heck to get the game to read them. And while we're at it, can you design weapons? I just need someone intelligent enough, I know there are people out there doing this all the time. I've got about every instant messaging service there is, and I'm on the internet almost every day, so I basically need a graphics consultant.
Thanks so much for reading!

While I'm not available for graphics, and not very good besides, I'd sugest (url="http://"http://www.wings3d")Wings3D.com(/url) for a beginner. It's reasonably simple to learn, and can give very good results.

Although you suggest you'd like a graphics artist on your dev team, it's always useful to know the ins and outs of graphics yourself.

So too get you on the right track I will offer to give you one ship for you to use. I feel that this ship may fit in with your plug in some way, as It is based on old architecture. I'm not going to be using it for any plug, so It might aswell get used. I cannot give you or create any more ships for you, because I'm working on other stuff at the moment, and will be for a long while yet. So it's a sort of take-it-or-leave-it situation . Heres a pic:

If you want to use it, just hit the e-mail button above my post, and get in contact with me, and we'll sort something out. If you don't want to, thats fine.

Hope I've been of some help, and good luck with the plug.

I'm working on a plug involving ancient Egypt myself... There's a _WHOLE LOT OF STUFF _back then to take into consideration, be careful. All caps aren't meant to be screaming here, just emphasis (I never learned ubb).

It is extremly difficult to come up with a totally new idea for a TC. Almost everything has been used, the simplest thing to do is to just use the origonal idea of an intersteller human race. Your idea is a nice variation of that.

Also, I can't tell if you want somebody to design your ships, or somebody to model them. And no, I'm not really open to do either.

Cmon people, the (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/cgi-bin/ubb/forumdisplay.cgi?action=topics&number;=20&SUBMIT;=Go")Chronicles(/url) are worth looking at.
I love Frigates, as is easily seen:(url="http://"http://www.dabie.k-ow.net/~glasskids/EV_Frigates_page.html")EV Frigates(/url).

Hey, thanks everyone for responding so quickly! And thanks for the advice! Oh, and the ancient Egypt part isn't the whole thing, it's just one part. I've also got Atlanteans, Greek, Macedonians...But anyhow, I'm off to find some people to help me develop this thing...
