Does anyone know what happened to the old unofficial EV/EVO page? It was something like (url="http://"http://www.escape-velocity.net")www.escape-velocity.net(/url) (it's been a long time) I can't find a link to it anywhere. Did it get shut down or did the people stop doing it? That was the best site...

The old official one was at (url="http://"http://www.escape-velocity.com")www.escape-velocity.com(/url), it's now at (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiaSW.com/games/ev/")www.ambrosiaSW.com/games/ev/(/url)

Ooh, you don't have to use URL tags anymore, there is a slight flaw with the code though, it includes the comma in the link when you put a comma straight after the URL.

escape-velocity.com is the site you're talking about, Ambrosia assimilated it into their collective and made it what you see now when you type in: (url="http://"http://www.escape-velocity.com")www.escape-velocity.com(/url)

First of all, it was (url="http://"http://www.escape-velocity.com")www.escape-velocity.com(/url)
Secondly, I think Mr. Flippy is referring to the pages that were actually on the e-v.com site.
Thirdly, it wasn't a really long time ago (at least for me).
Oh yea...why I posted. I think I can help you out with that (I was only the last webmaster of that site).
I never set up those sites again (although I could have if I wanted to) because I just havn't really had time, and they really are terrible to update. If I ever did do another page, It'd be a little less reliant on uniformity.
Anyways, I think you should check: (url="http://"http://www.oxy-web.com/evo/")http://www.oxy-web.com/evo/(/url) I think that will get you something

Lol! I can't believe it - all this time and the missions/objectives section STILL hasn't been done!!!

Well, I don't know what you consider "content" to be -- the current (url="http://"http://www.escape-velocity.com")www.escape-velocity.com(/url) pages have:
-- Thousands of plug-ins (in the (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/games/evo/addons.html")Add-On Files section(/url))
-- Hundreds of web links (in the (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/games/evo/weblinks.html")Web Links section(/url))
-- Several dozen pieces of fan-fiction, and many more on the way (in the (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/games/evo/chronicles.html")Chronicles section(/url))
-- Five web boards with lots of active, on-topic discussion (you've found them, aparently)
-- A Newswire for important EV/EVO-related news announcements (in the (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/games/evo/newswire.html")EV/EVO Newswire section(/url))
...and everything is released with alacrity and updated regularly. So sure, we no long have the (unfinished) mission objectives pages, but there certainly is content here!

As was said before, I simply uploaded the page a while back because someone asked to, I never worked on them after I uploaded it, don't really intend to.

Anyone who has seen earlier posts I have written knows that I could never resist posting in a topic involving web pages about EV/EVO...
For real content (at least eventually) you can visit my page at (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/evosite")www.geocities.com/evosite(/url) . It's wonderful (of course)!
------------------
Visit my EVO web site (currently under construction) and tell me how it looks (via the poll at the bottom of the page or the guestbook)! It's at (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/evosite")http://www.geocities.com/evosite(/url) !
I can't think of anything else to write...

Why does (url="http://"http://www.escape-velocity.com")www.escape-velocity.com(/url) take you to the EVO page?
I'm sorry, I just had to complain.

Sounds like good government.

I guess that's because ambrosia wanted it to redirect to the EVO page, must go directly to (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/games/ev/")http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/games/ev/(/url)
