Oldie but goldie... This is the home of Clavius and Beyond, a plug-in for Ambrosia Escape Velocity.




With EV Classic for Nova, you can play Escape Velocity running through the Nova engine on recent Mac OS X and Windows.
The registration server for these games is long gone, so these downloads include a cracked Nova binary.

1. Install EV Nova Community Edition - provided by escape-velocity games.
2. Install EV Classic for Nova - provided by escape-velocity games.
3. Run the included .nplay file.

1. Install EV Nova 1.1_b2.10.5 - provided by escape-velocity games.
2. Install EV Classic for Nova - Mac - provided by escape-velocity games.
3. Run the included .nplay file.

First, download the following pack, containing EV Nova and EV Classic For Nova 1.1.1.
Unpack zip archive and:

1. Install the included font Sillycon.ttf. This font is used for interface elements in Escape Velocity.
2. Open EVNova 1.1.1.dmg, and place EV Nova.app in your Applications folder
3. With OS El Capitan and later, launch novafix.pkg, this will patch EV Nova.app
4. Unpack EV_Classic_for_Nova_1.1.1.zip, and place Escape Velocity.app in your Applications folder
5. Launch Escape Velocity.app, this will complete the installation
6. Remove any Nova plug-ins you have currently installed as they are unlikely to be compatible with the Escape Velocity scenario, and place unpacked new plug-ins in ~/Library/Application Support/EV Nova/EV Classic for Nova/Plug-Ins folder
7. Launch /Applications/Escape Velocity.app to play.

If the installation succeeded, you should have something like:

Applications folder	Application Support folder

Pilots files will be created in ~/Library/Application Support/EV Nova/EV Classic for Nova/Pilots folder.
See included ReadMe text file for further informations.

• EV Map - A3: map focused on governments, outfit services and shipyards - A3 format.

This plug-in doesn't replace the standard EV universe, it just extends the galaxy. It is designed as an end-game plug-in, so, depending of your skill, you will need a strong ship to complete Clavius' missions.
It mainly adds:

• 6 governments
• 9 systems
• 16 ships (with new graphics)
• 25 outfits (with sounds and new graphics also)
• 62 missions
• ... and much more!

It also adds Maskirovka Station — headquarters of the famous Maskirovka company — where you can purchase new ships. Maskirovka Station is located in the Levo system. Just land there and visit the shipyard and outfit section.

Fight against a pro-Confed extremist movement and use new weapons, beat off an alien invasion, discover a ancient civilization... Land on Clavius Station, and depending on your combat skills, you will be able to pilot the famous Neutronic Kestrel Interceptor, a sleek, fast and powerful vessel. Clavius Station is located two jumps below the Sirgil system. Just go there and the adventure will start.
Enjoy... hit hard and good luck! Clavius And Beyond 3.70 is based on 3.50 version, ported to EV Classic for Nova by Chris, with SpacePort software. It contains minor changes and fixes in order to look like the original 3.33 release best, and resources cleaning.

Clavius And Beyond should NOT be compatible with other plug-ins, so it’s highly recommended to remove any other plug-ins.
In the same way, it is strongly recommended to use a dedicated Pilot file to play plug-ins.

If first mission "Welcome to Clavius" is not available on any in-game Mission Computer, install included Clavius Cleaner plug-in, and complete the special Computer mission.
