Override Pluggin/Mod

[pmartens07]

I don't have time for big projects (I really don't have time to be plying games at all but that's another topic) But I was wondering if anyone is working on bringing the EV Override Universe and storyline to Endless Sky?

I spent many an hour in late elementary and middle school exploring that world and would love to experience it again.

I don't think anyone is, and if they are I haven't heard about it yet. That said, you are free to put a team together. If this is just a request, on the other hand, feel free to say so and maybe someone will be willing to tackle it for/with you,

Local found someone a while back who recreated a bunch of EV (I think Nova) ships into graphics that could be used in Endless Sky. I've still got a copy of all of them. Those could be useful.

But as for anyone making an EV mod for ES, I haven't seen anything as of recent. Although, someone brought it up a while back[github.com] on GitHub.

No offence intended m8, but a lot of the experienced modders around here are already up to our elbows in our own mods- so I at least wouldn't be able to do this for you. However, if you wanted to start working on this yourself- it's always good to have new content creators- we'd be more than happy to help. (By the way, if you want sprites for ships, I recommend you talk to either Wrzlprnft or mdsmestad- Wrzl made the Marauder ships, and mdsmestad's done a load of cool things which you can see in the artwork section. I'd be up to help too- since MZ said he likes my ships- but I'm probably not the best to talk to.) Good luck!

Wrzl isn't taking requests right now. Let me just upload and paste a link to these EV ships here.

I stand corrected.

Not so much a request as curiosity. I seems that ES took a lot of inspiration from EV and I wasn't sure if anyone had taken that further. I will be months getting through the existing story lines at the rate that I play games

i'm pretty sure that M.Z. intended for Endless Sky to pick up where E.V. Nova (a story iteration after Override) left off - a powerful engine with easily creatable content.

the Escape Velocity engine (and its subsequent content iterations) was indeed the inspiration for Endless Sky.

the currently implemented storyline is about 15h of gameplay, so i hope that it triggers you, and you'll join our community effort to build E.S. into a bigger phenomenon than E.V. was.
