    • Recruting


      Ok, I was recently advised by reliable sources to do my TC project for nova. The only problem being my never having made a plugin, or even tinkered with making a plugin, for nova. Therefore, while I go to work learning all I can I need some help, not to mention that I don't think I can do the job alone even if I were a master plugin maker. Below I've listed the type of help I need:

      General programmer/s:somebody to write the actual resorces untill I learn enough to do them myself. Note, this person's job will be made much easier should they have a method of porting an EVO plug.

      Mission programmer/s:somebody to program the missions, I'll do the writing. Currantly I have zip missions done so porting will not help.

      Testers:I suppose anybody who has a registered version of nova and likes crashing the game will be eligeble for this.

      If anybody will volonteer who has good modeling skills I would be really happy. Although I can get by with my own work a texturer or modeler would be a major help.

      =========================================

      currantly I can claim to have no web site of my own other than the small site for my marathon scinario. But I happen to know of a good free web board service that could be used easily and I have a few megs of private webspace.

      If you wish to volenteer your help post your area of expertise, and the role you want to take (doesn't count if it matches the area of expertise).

    • This is not meant offensive in any way , just a tip. If you plan to recruit people for your TC and you say you are going to do the writing , at least take the trouble of running your post trough a spell checker , it contains several errors.

      Oh Heck! A post is not writing, I try to be carefull, but I don't run them through a checker ever, the most I do is looking over a long one. Besides, I read through this one and didn't see anything wrong. What are you talking about? 😕

      Thank you, now all I need is at least one more helper and I can really get started. 🙂 I still hope for somebody who can port stuff for me.

      Edit:what are the formula's for changing EVO numbers to EVN numbers in the resorces? This is really confusing me.

    • What is the nature of this TC?

      Hmmmm, depending on the nature of that question there can be several answers.

      First of all, it is a full TC, everything (or almost everything) will be replaced. Since this is from an EVO TC I'm having a few problems meeting Nova's standards, but have no fears! 🙂

      Secondly, it is pretty much normal EV style, it is not set in the solar system.

      And most important of all, it includes brand new ideas, all ships and weapons are scaled to their modern naval counterparts. That means no more three storey tall medium blasters. :rolleyes: Weapons look small compared to the ships, but a ship can only carry so many because its engines can only push so much and be efficiant. The second guiding idea is that of molding the whole universe to what is going on in our world. For instance, guns are quite difficult to obtain, they require expensive licences and are expensive in their own right. It is just so in this plug. Every frontier in our history has become a battle field. On the sea we developed warships, in the air, fighter planes and bombers. Every new continent discovered has had battles fought over it, fights between settlers and indians, (and quite often between the settlers themselves) were fought as americans pushed west. And so it is imagineable that such occorences are common in the history of this universe. And they are still common when you start.

      Does that answer your question?

      I don't expect a beta to be out for a year at least. 😉
      what I need is rather a fairly constant test of the plug once it reaches a state where it no longer crashes the game. 🙂

    • I'm still looking for help, preferably somebody who can help me learn how to make Nova plugs.
      I found space port, but I can't figure out how to use the darned thing. Can somebody tell me how to port using that program?

      Thanks, but I'm happy with what I've got. I'm used to that style of board. 🙂
      Please register on it so I can set us up. 😉
