How many of you remember the "Incomplete Plug"? Well, now the Silent Runis of Earth has been in development for a few months, and is in late alpha stanges. To make beta go faster, I'm planning on releasing a public beta via the EVO webboard.

Check out the storylines and screenshots below:

Any responses are appreciated.

WTF is a "Runis"?

BTW "incomplete plug" is hardly a unique title, I can think of half a dozen, at least (some of which reside on my hard drive), gong back as far as "Vorinth."

This looks like it's going to be pretty good. Nice graphics and all, but my only complaint is that target selection would really get on my nerves... Too big and large if you ask me.

Just my own opinion. Keep up the good work.

Checked them out. Nice graphics. Great title screen. Interesting storyline, should provide some good mission/stry development.

But PLEASE get somone who knows spelling and grammar well to proofread your text before you release the plug, I got a headache from all the errors just in the first story. (To be fair, the fact that you used blue-on-black text for part of the copy contributed geatly to the headache, in future try to use more visible colors such as white, yellow, or cyan.)

Looks like it will be a great plug.

Overall this looks like a solid TC; good going. I agree with Skyblade that the target selection graphic is a bit too large and prominent, but its a pretty small issue.

I'd also like to echo what Joe Burnette said; find someone to proof read the text in the plug. The fewer typos the better; even a few tend to detract from the overall quality of the plug. Definitely get a proofreader or two and make any necessary changes before the final release.

------------------

Don't worry - the reason for the typos is I ushally do the proof-reading all at once using EV Text. And I'll see about fixing the radar thing. I could either make it dimmer or just replace it with something different.

Oh yeah, and the "Incomplete Plug" refered to the one that was uploaded to the addons page AS "the incomplete plug". Then me and Pesimist Guy took over development, and massivly expanded the universe, storylines, etc.

Hey, that's kinda nifty. A display like that would be good to make for Nova.......

As a matter of personal preference, I don't like the circles. I find them distracting. However, others may not.

As soon as Nova's released and SRE's done (not sure which will come first), I'm porting SRE to Nova. And I'm going to be looking into someone re-doing the graphics for Nova's engine. Anyone know any good places to order 3D graphics other than Meowx and Warlock? (I'm definatly considering both of these - I just want to know what all my options are)

Looks rather good. In a matter of personal taste, I like the circles.

That's good as far as it goes, but you still need someone else to check your work - beta testers can do it if they're good at spelling, etc., but it is essential to have someone besides the writer check things.
