    • Good Total Conversions


      I'm just wondering what total conversions of EVO are out there, and which ones are the best. I would appreciate any input, but if you are going to post a plug, I would really appreciate reasons (best graphics, plot, ships, outfits, etc.).

      Thanks everybody!

      PS Sorry i forgot to include this before-I know Frozen Heart/Femme Fatale are great, but am looking for others.

    • I found B5 increbily boring because it had no plot from my point of veiw and it used some old sprites and lots of stupid ships and outfits

    • just go to the addons page and look at the highest and most downloaded conversions. i wonder if the dredden war is out yet? if so that would be a cool one to visit.

    • I would have to say that Star Wars would be the best if the weapons worked half the time... 🙂

      First, F-25 is expansion, not TC

      Second, I'm amazed no-one's yet mentioned FF and FH (Femme Fatale and Frozen Heart). IMO, the best TCs out there...till Empire's Fall is released, at least. 🙂

    • SW sucked, all though it had great potential. If someone where to make an SW plug for Nova i would be interested. My idea of a good plug would be if loads of people contributed eg graphics and text so crap stuff could be sidelined and the quality would be good.

      Not out yet. Dreden War will be one of the best when it comes out though (I hope ;))...

      At the moment, the best are FH and FF. No real competition... (as mentioned above, yet)

    • The Frozen Heart is an excellent TC

    • If you really want good TCs, your best bet is to use the original EV engine. However if you wait a while there are some good plugins in the works. Captian Skyblade's Corsair Development team is currently working on a plugin called "Operation Overlord" as well as "The Dreaden War". My own plugin "Espeidia" should be out by this time next year, and Onyx has just announced that "Cold Blood" is in Alpha. So wait just a little longer...

    • Go to Meowx software's site. He has some good stuff like quantamire (for ev not evo) and MAGMA for evo. That one isn't a tc but it upgrades the graphics or changes them rather into these crazy 3D ones. Worth trying and worth the downloads.
