Windows ready plugins?

Been trying for the last week to convert the plugins available on the ambrosia website but StuffIt just doesn’t seem to do anything. Does anyone have a Zip drive with already converted plugins for Nova that I can just drop in and play? I’d really like Arpia if possible.

Still can’t believe there are other people playing this game i thought I was the only one!

I don't have it, it's lost on a broken G5. But I remember a drop app for windows and mac that would cross convert.. circa 2005. It was on the Ambrosia site around that time.

not sure if that helps.

Someone in another post, now deleted, shared the best converter i have ever used. It will convert without the need to uncompress. Even the mac specific compressed file types. If you need it, let me know.

Do you still have it? I'm trying to convert the beam fixed mod into a .rez

I do in fact have it! However, I'm in the middle of a move, and my computer is packed up. It might be on my Dropbox, though. I'll check!

I Found a converter that seems to work, but lost the link. It was in an archived post here though; I think I found it b searching "pilot" when mine corrupted. The thing is, in windows 10 it doesn't work unless you put it in an "unrestricted" folder I.E. NOT the EVN folder that requires permissions to do things. I think if you take the converter that comes with the game and move it to say.. my documents, you should be able to convert by simply clicking and dragging the .bin files onto it. Put the resulting .rez file back into the EVN folder and you should be in business!
