      Does anybody Know if there is an apllication that lets you make your own ships for EV. If there is, will someone give me the name of it.

      As for any ship-building applications for Escape Velocity, you won't find one, a good one that is. Programs like "ShipWrite" for Override are a good choice if you're making Override plugins, but ResEdit will always be the best means for creating plugins. So long as you're familiar with the EV Bible by Matt Burch, handling ship graphics and plugin development is really a piece of cake.

      Hope that helps you out. 🙂

      Uh, I'm not that familar with ResEdit, but I'll try it out. Thanks for the help. I'm going to try to make a ship and some outfits. Be on the look out for it. It'll have something to do with the F-5 Hawk. 🙂

      If you're looking for ResEdit, then you can find it on the same page as posted above. Scroll down twelve files, and ResEdit will be there.

      So you're going to design a fighter based on the Hawk? Good choice...That is one awesome fighter. Good luck, and feel free to post it at the EV Image Gallery when it's done.

      Anyhow, you're welcome for the help. Just give me a hollar if you need anymore...

      Well, you would only wreck your Power PC if you were trying to. 😉 However, you can easilly ruin your copy of Escape Velocity using ResEdit if you don't know what you're doing. I would suggest making a duplicate of your Escape Velocity folder, and edit it instead. That way, you'll have a backup copy if anything goes wrong. And if you are somewhat nervous about messing something up (in EV standards), read the EV Bible. That will cut your work out for you. 🙂

      Actually, I found it easier to use the Beginners' Guide to Res-Edit for EV, then, once a little more familiar with Res-Edit, start using the EV bible. The Beginners' Guide can also be found at the (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/games/ev/addons.html")EV Addons Page(/url).

      And you'll need the EV Templates, which can be acquired from the EV Bible download, or the TPH Development Kit, which also includes the EV Bible.

      Oh, and Iridium is also making a Res-Editor for EV/O/N, called (url="http://"http://www.danicsoft.com/fusion/")Fusion(/url). Currently, it's still in alpha, and is not yet finished, but sh•ps are near the top on Iridiums priority list (I think it goes: Gšvt, SŘst, Spšb, OŸtf, W‘ap, then Sh•p, et cetera).
