Bummer, Divals. Reminds me; I have barely started. It's going to suck though...

Hmmm, weird. Sounds like a problem with your server. I've received about twelve e-mails today, and why my account wouldn't receive your message would be odd. It doesn't even appear that your e-mail is getting out of the outbox.

If you continue having problems, go ahead and stick 'em up online and I'll take them from there. Be sure to include your description.

Oh, and another alternative would be to bombard EVula with e-mails. Since he's the host and all, he loves that kind of thing. Angry feedback, oh yeah...

Title: an exercise in futility
skill level: elementary
email: micahg@microserve.net
web site: (url="http://"http://www.microserve.net/~micahg")http://www.microserve.net/~micahg(/url)
Description:
A scene from TGC, probably will end up being a QT movie since EV:O supports them. Warning, possible spoiler alert! with that said, let the viewing commence... BTW, sorry for any wonkiness, this thing made my computer crash 'cause it was so big and I had to do about half of it over again...

BTW, please post after you download it, i'd like to take it down again this afternoon.

Uh, yeah, don't do that. My email server is currently less than down (I hate my current .com host), so I wouldn't get it.

Divals: Looks like you have a bad download file there. I get a page with a bunch of hex code, similar to a few corrupted files I sometimes find on the addons page.

Make sure you have a late version of the Stuffit engine, and stash your files as .bin after it is stuffed. Might fix the problem.

ok, tack a .hqx onto the end of that and that's the new link. for future reference, you can save a file with the code and stuff and then open it from inside stuffit expander.

sorry to bother you, but the title is wrong (should be "an exercise in futility"), and it was made in infini-d, not Strata (what's strata, anyhoo?)

jeez, you must really be tired.

You bet I'm tired... Going about my day with three hours of sleep ain't easy. I'll fix that immediately. Thanks.

That would explain why my questions for the advice section of EVula's Lair wouldn't send; it's ok because they were mostly sarcasm.

Yeah, certain technical aspects of evula.com are extremely screwey right now (for example, go to any page and view the source. I'm good at HTML code, but I'm not so good that I can actually read it all when it is on a single line). This is all a result of my (url="http://"http://www.evula.com/reviews/computer/awc_host.html")incredibly sucky webhost(/url) -- I hope to have the issue resolved by the end of next week.

While we're on the subject of Saber Studios: I just downloaded the EV/O shipyards and the Outfits. Has anybody ever made a plugin for the ships (i.e. increased armament, larger size, etc.), or the weapons (turbophase weapons)?
