Is their any supplemental material produced by other companies in the megaversal system or similar enough systems (like d20 to dnd3/4)?

i think there is precisely one such supplement. a rifts supplement for the manhunter setting (which i know next to nothing about, so someone else will need to fill you in on the details if you're interested).

i don't believe it is still in print. i'm not sure if palladium is even still allowed to sell it, since it isn't their IP and it was not made using an open license like the OGL for d20 was.

now, it is possible that there are others. if there are, i haven't even heard of them by reputation (i only know about this one because i've seen people mention it on these forums before). but i don't *think* there are any others.

But aside from that the only one I know is from Myrmidon Press Rifts Manhunter .

It is a different take on Rifts and is really not that compatible with Rifts itself although I had a player run one of the OCCs in a Phase World campaign and I use the Manhunter robots as random robot villains ever now and then.

It works totally fine in a 3galaxies campaign easy enough to slot all the manhunter stuff into a corner of a galaxy no fuss no muss. But as others mentioned the savage rifts is the current fully supported alternate rule set rifts option.

he asked about megaversal system or similar enough to be played in it folks.

rifts savage worlds does not use the megaversal system, and while i haven't played savage worlds yet i'm pretty sure the system it does use is not even remotely close to the megaversal system. you really shouldn't be offering it up in answer to the OP's question.

I decided to look into if further and found:
Demon Hearts Falling (self published dimension book)
The Banwok Hunters (same as above)
Not sure how legit it is, since the creator asserts some contact with palladium... But it could (likely is) Grifter/Drifter content.
