Tocreate my franken-ship, the IDA Courier, I first started in FreeCAD to build a 3D model of what the ship would look like. EV Nova uses 64-frame sprite sheets to display the ship on the screen, and I knew there was no hope of consistently drawing a ship at different angles that many times, so a model would be necessary for rendering.

With the texture mapped onto the ship, it was time to render the scene, position lights to match how a ship in EV Nova is normally lit, and then take 64 screenshots of the ship rotated by increments of 5.625 degrees.


While this has by no means been a comprehensive walkthrough of how to create a ship, it should get you moving in the right direction should you want to enjoy a bit of nostalgia and expand the game. Resources like the EV Nova Bible and EVNEW should prove invaluable, and the Nova Reference Plus is great if you need information on existing game data. Development for EV Nova is a bit of a lost art with little information to be found in Google searches; however, I would be happy to answer any questions.


Also, feel free to download the IDA Courier plugin as an example for your own plugin creation. In addition to two variants of the ship, it contains seven ship-specific outfits and makes for a good example of how to create special items for sale in the outfitters.


I recently started jazz lessons & a jazz group at my school but am super new to it all, so I have been using MuseScore to create practice tracks for myself to speed up the learning process with pitches, chords, etc. We are doing one piece in a Bossa Nova style and I was wondering if there is a setting or plugin I could use to make the music play back in that style (like it does with the Swing setting)? I wanted to make an mp3 with it just to make sure I'm on the right track with the feel of that sort of rhythm.


if a plugin doesn't exist for this I have no clue if this is even something capable of being one or if it would always have to be done manually, I just saw it can be done with the Swing setting so I was wondering if this would work similarly.


What exactly would you want such a setting to do? The "swing" setting doesn't add new notes or really change any notated rhythms, it just plays the second eighth of each pair a bit late, which is how swing eighths work in real life too. I'm not aware of anything comparable for bossa nova - no simple adjustment to the timing of notes that turns an existing rhythm into bossa nova.


He might want something like automatic comping. This can be done with external programs like Band in a Box or MTH Pro, and then importing the midi files into MuseScore. It would be great to have this function directly in MuseScore, even in a very simplified form. For example, generating a Bossa Nova bass line could be done very easily from the chord names.


By the way, it could be done easily manually if we had a very simple opportunity: when a note duration is shortened, having the choice to get either a rest or a not for the complement. For example, if we have an A half note, shortening it to a dotted quarter (Shift+Q) inserts an eight rest after it. Having the choice to get an eight-note (the same pitch) instead would be great. Having the choice between the same pitch or the pitch of the following not would even be better. But perhaps there is another way to get the same result. (I mean generating rhythmic patterns from chord names.)


Working the other way, such as generating dotted-eight - sixteenth pattern is much easier. One just has to use only eight notes, and then increase the duration of every other one with Shift+W, which automatically changes the next one to a sixteenth.


Hi Pierre-Yves, I made something similar, for the very same purpose. But it is not in MuseScore. I say it here, in case of. It is build with SuperCollider. It generates an endless bass line for the grid you've specified. The added value over an App such as iRealPro, it is that (among others, and if you plug a microphone) it will also analyse what you are playing and tell you if you are in-tune or not.


Unfortunately, when I installed V.2.2.0 It would not show up in Plugin Manager. I tried running it in Plugin Creator and this gave an error saying that selectionhelper.js could not be found. So I tried copying the version of selectionhelper.js from your excellent Solo Analyser plugin to the zparkingb directory of the new plugin and then it seemed to work fine.


In case you are looking for any suggestions for further versions, could I suggest adding a "Bass Clef Instrument" option to your list of Transposing Instruments. (Also, I've just noticed a little spelling mistake - what should be spelled as "reversed" is being printed as "reserved" when the pattern is generated.)


I've updated the packaging. I've changed my packaging approach for the new versions of all my pluging's (I'm so used to the easiness of Maven when packaging for java, and I wished I was able to replicate this with qml/java, but unfortunately, I wasn't).


Whilst these instruments aren't transposing instruments in same sense as a trumpet in Bb, they traditionally read from the Bass Clef rather than the Treble Clef, so when generating exercises, etc, for them it is currently necessary to apply a clef change (and usually an octave shift) to the output from workoutbuilder. It would just be nice if the plugin could do it itself, by choosing an option.


I had in mind the way playalong books are typically available in four versions - C (Concert Pitch) Instruments, Bb Instruments, Eb Instruments, and Bass Clef Instruments. You've very nicely dealt with all the common transposing instruments, and also some less common ones, but it would be nice if bass players, trombonists, etc, could choose a setting that would produce output suitable for them too.


My first investigation showed that the clef's details aren't available from the API. Same as for the KeySig.

And intermediate solution would be to pitch everything down, like 2 octaves without changing the clef. I'll have thought about it. Thanks for sharing your feedback ! Much appreciated.


It is possible in principle as Nova supports the Language Server interface LanguageClient - Nova which is implemented for Julia as well. But someone needs to take care of setup (or make a Nova plugin that takes care of setup). If you want to contribute that to the Nova and Julia communities, this is probably where you should start: Nova


Integration is provided via a plugin. There are multiple configurationsettings required for proper indexing and incremental updates. Some of thesettings are specified in Searchlight configuration files. Others areprovided in other service configuration files.


The settings above may be automatically configured by stack.shby adding them to the following post config section in devstack.Just place the following in local.conf and copy the above settingsunderneath it.:


Since changes to Neutron can affect Nova instances you may optionally turn onnotifications for Neutron. If you do not, networking changes will only bepicked up by Searchlight when notifications are received from Nova.


In order to reduce the impact on the nova API, changes have been made to theway notifications are processed. Currently searchlight has to retrieve novaserver information from nova because the notifications alone are missingseveral pieces of information. Prior to Newton this meant up to 7 API requestsduring a server boot. During Newton this was changed. There will now be oneinitial nova request prior to the scheduler, one when theinstance.create.start notification is received, one when networking isestablished and one after the instance has booted and run any init scripts.Other notifications during boot will update only the server status.


All OS-EXT-SRV-ATTR:.* properties are filtered out from search resultsfor non-admin users. This is not a configuration option in this release.To change this or filter out additional properties, you must change theplugin code to add additional properties.


I really appreciate all the work you have put in to this Aurora dashboard, that gives the RGH users a "working" console with all the features like covers, filemanager, scripts, the ability to play "online" etc etc ?


I seem to have the opposite problem with Nova,, have done a clean install twice with separate downloads each time, but Nova is not active in the Modules tab and it does not want to load the manual way either.


I don't have Freestyle Dash installed, only XEX menu and Dashlaunch, so I went into XEX menu and deleted the Aurora 0.6b folder from there and copied the extracted 0.7b release.rar folder onto the HDD.


This or the other Trainere Plugin may have caused the problem. If you want to use Nova, you have to remove the other ones, when they use the same Adresses to be loaded. The FreestylePlugin is definitly a collision, the other probably too.


What trainer plugin are we talking about? Because there isnt one that is needed?? Older trainers use a launcher, aurora trainers have support built in.. sooo.. answer what plugin you are talking about? Because i can guarntee you dont need no trainer plugin for dashlaunch..
