RL got in the way of installing and testing but now I have!

Positives: The additions are awesome -
the extra zoom levels make the map a dream to use
the search 'jump to target' is extremely useful
the mouse zoom function is very convenient

Negatives: none! :P

Well done and thanks!

Thanks a lot for sharing :)

I'll try to translate carefully for my frog peoples and to spread them the good news of this new version...

by the way it make me look again inside the "how to input objects" things and it seems very easy to do so and very precisely... interesting

See you later in space time continuum.

the emtool2 file about objects is really cool to use and to update, not that much difficult :)

at zoom 8 it's really cool to see the planets appearing on screen :)

thanks a lot guys for creating and share those programs

Yeah thats where I ended up grabbing it, useful little compilation you have there Seejay. Hopefully I'll be passing you things to host in the near future. I think I'll start with the civilian ships first, and start releasing frames and equipment three at a time.

Shouldn't be any problems. As long as I get the images with
a brief description, I'll add it.

Yeah, little. I'm used to a hell of a lot more options, I used to model for the Escape Velocity games. Sure its a top down game, but it doesn't stop you from making some damn nice quality 3d ships. If that game actually used models instead of sprites and masks, I'd be downloading those mods and modifying a few of the cooler ships I've seen pissing about the EV universe.

"Writers ... have (it is to be presumed) the full and magnificent vocabulary of the English language at their disposal. They can say anything they want with whatever intensity of invective they require in a thousand different ways without ever once deviating from full respectability of utterance. They have, therefore, no need to trespass upon the usages of the ignorant and forlorn, and to steal their tattered expressions as substitutes for the language of Shakespeare and Milton."

Which site? Most of this stuff, if it still works in the expanded version of EM, can be found at SeeJay's website (check his sig for the link).

The link on the first page leads to Archy's "portal" ... which I guess is his website. You might be able to contact him there. Either that or try the homepage button below his sig.

Yeah like Marvin said just send him an email, I doubt he will mind if you release an update, but it's his work and you should at least ask him. If you cant find his email, I have the address he got back to me from a couple of years ago, so let me know if you need it and I'll PM it to you.

And like Caleb said source is with the download so you can at least edit it for your personal use with EL. (I don't currently have EL if I did, I'd update and release it myself).
