      i am very close to a net ev/o. the game is roughly playable via lan using tcp/ip. if i get ready to implement UDP correctly i could post a playable version (2 player) today. but i'm having heavy problems with this... i am actually workin' on it but i don't have much time for this. i have alot to do with studys and drama group at the moment :frown:

      but here my principial note to EVMP:
      EVMP is possible! under Linux there is a game called xsw (XShipWars) that proves this!
      The most difficult part is the netcode for syncing the players data. A functional plugin engine exists! My actual research shows that there can be up to 50 ships in a galaxy if the server has enough bandwidth and power.
      If a universe is spit into multiple servers (my attempt) it could easily carry thousands of players.

      Yeah I notice Ship wars wwhen I was installing SuSE. When is it going to be released (I'd be willing to beta-test :D)

      The only time I'll usually fly a Helain is with upgrades, that way I can get away from all the guided weapons that tend to decimate renegade vessels. 🙂 I must admit the Helian is a rather cool-looking ship, though...

      Skyblade - The Clipper was cooler. 😛

      MadFax7 - How's it coming?

      sebek.du.law - COOL! Do you know when you may be able to release it? Will this be a plug for EVO, or a whole new program?

      Well you're right. The clipper was cooler, but then again all the ships in EV looked cooler than their EVO counterparts (my opinion).

      MadFax 7 posted on the Ares board that he might not be on for another couple of weeks. Hey, maybe he will have it finished by then.

      That would be good (though I doubt it :frown:).

      That was a false alarm.

      I've temporally stoped working on it while I play through Diablo2. (only 2 more acts and I'm done!) Although once I finish that, work should progress pretty quickly.

      I would promote it more, and take more screen shots (put them up rather) but I don't have the time to do so.

      Sebek...do you plan on porting this to Mac OS X? Because if you do...use Cocoa. It's fast, stable, and as I am told, easy to debug. Just my insane idea here!

      Its a totally different program written in RealBasic. The first build was a non-mp two player game which was interesting to play 🙂

      I have a question for MadFax. Will you make plug-in kinda things for A:O? It would be cool if you did.

      Hmmmm, an interesting idea. The only way I COULD do this, would be if I replaced Ares' data files with my own. It might have issues when playing online... (specifically through GameRanger)

      Nope. But I did update the (url="http://"http://evo.iwarp.com/AO/shots.html")screen shots(/url) page. No new shots, but it's friendlier to smaller resolutions. I'm also working on some EZBoards for AO (actually, they're already done, I just haven't gotten around to putting up links) they're mainly for posting news and progress that isn't big enough for a new topic on these boards 😛

      I'll do some updating tonight. Maybe even some new screen shots...

      8 new screen shots up. Go (url="http://"http://evo.iwarp.com/ao/shots.html")check 'em out(/url).

      I am even more impressed Madfax. The Azdaras and Aradas look great! It is a little hard to make out the Azdgari Warships since you zoomed out. Everything looks great. I can't wait to see the finished product. I sent off my registration application earlier so I should be able to play the whole scenario sometime this week. Great job Madfax!

      I did that on purpose. Not because they look bad, but because they look to damn cool 😉

      Would you be willing to post that for download? I certainly would play it.
