Welcome.

Plugins.
Avatars? There's a link that says "my controls". If you can't find it then... we'll try to help.

Thanks for the avatar info, Apple Core.(Helped, as you can see.)

Hmmmmm....I got the plug-ins downloaded I mentioned earlier,

but still nothing happens when I try to use it! Exactly what do I do

when I download the file? Am I doing something wrong?HELP!!

Nice avie, Rameretz. You can also add a personalized signature to your posts. It's under Edit My Signature in My Controls.

A few things about plugins:
• Read the file docs.
• Don't have more than one addon game in your folder at the same time.
• It's a good thing to have a "base" pilot that hasn't been used for plugs. Some plugs won't work right if you use a pilot file that was used on another plug. Really, this is only for Expansions, not Total Conversions.
• Some plugin files have more than one file to DL. This happened to me recently with Brotherhood Of The Kestrel and EV. In the middle of the game I found out there was an addendum file to DL.

Some of my favorites:
Frozen Heart
Femme Fatal
Empire for EVO
FOTVE
ROTUE
ROTVE
F-25 (a bit buggy, but fun)
Babylon 5

1. Unstuff
2. Read the docs!
3. In the EVO folder, there is a folder called Plugins, drag only the actual unstuffed game file into that folder. Not the docs files.
4. Then you launch EVO as usual.

Should look like:

Number of downloads: 68

I forgot to add: on larger plugs, like TCs, there migh be Data files that you will put into the EVO Plugin folder also.

Anything you feel like... just about.

Where would I see it? Is it (in Apple Core's case), You put what in my power mac?

A signature line is a great place to put your favorite quote, thought, song, whatever. Just, please, for the love of all things pleasant, do not, I repeat, do not make a ginormous siggy. Kthxbye.

Edit: Yes, and mine is green.
