If for some reason you need to edit the templates themselves, that can be done, but it requires ResEdit. I'm curious, though - why would you want to edit the templates? The ones provided already cover every resource in all three games.

Well, I just try to find the way to make at last my own ships and outfits to Nova. I have made many Ships and outfits before to Override, for myself because im not so good graphic editor and i dont want to release them because they most include other creators graphics and i thought ''it wouldnt be just fair'' to use them on my own plugs... still i have so many ideas to Nova but what are you gonna do when you can do only half of them :frown:

...which you can do using the templates as they stand.

David, I think he's thinking that your templates are basically copies of the standard nova elements...

Explanation: The templates are basically a set of "things" (made by David here, thankyou david, we all appreciate the great work you did) that modify res edit, turning it into a nova plug in maker, "nova tools". The nova data files on the other hand are the files that contain the graphics, Spöbs and all the other resources that tell nova what to do... what nova tools, the res edit template set allows you to do is replace these with your own via a plug in... David isn't suggesting you use the standard nova stuff, he's suggesting you use nova tools to make your own...

Glad to help...

Almost right, except that I didn't write NovaTools (which, just for the record, is a set of editors, not templates, written by DrRalph and available from (url="http://"http://w00tware.ev-nova.net/")w00tware.ev-nova.net(/url)). MissionComputer is the one I wrote, a stand-alone plug-in editor for all three Escape Velocity games which provides graphical editors for many of the resources (with more coming soon) and text-based editors (these are the template-driven ones) for the rest.

Look, i know that i am a dumb but are you telling me that there IS a way to edit ships and outfits without resedit? Example, with your Mission computer or evone or something? I know how templates work, i have use resedit before so much that it's almost my best friend :).

Triple-posting is frowned upon. Edit your earlier posts if you want to add more information.

While MissionComputer and EVONE are all well and good, I still don't see why ResEdit is bad. Lots of people insist that and I don't get it. I personally enjoy using ResEdit; if I were making a plugin I would only use external editors for syst and rle resources.

Especially if all you're going to do is quote yourself.

I totaly agree with you. I'm making a plug, and the only thing i could say against ResEdit is that it's a classic application. It's far better than the other editors.

More powerful maybe, but would you really say better?
