Who Working on What?

[darrin75]

Just wanted to start a thread to see who is working on what? Plugins?Skins? etc..Post away or not.  Me i am working on a video plugins alone with a new skin...

[darrin75]

Also i am working making a new plugin, but it will never touch reven's plugin. It the best and the one i will always use.

I installed Visual Studios last night and am probably going to be jumping in over my head; but I'm going to try and find a way to do a NES plugin for my Nintendo roms. I'm hoping to make it look/work similar to reven's plugins....maybe I can get some help/tips from him? I'm also hoping that the plugin manual is very easy to follow..lol. If not I'll just resort back to work on enjoying what everyone else has done. Keep up the good work everybody.

the plugin model and api is fairly simple to follow. You should not have a problem if you have an OO background and programming knowledge in Java, C++ or C#

Generic scheduler for external applications. Let me know if it's been done already.

Oh...and another one that I'm not going to tell you all about in case you all steal my idea.  

Cheers,
Brian

i was thinking of doing either "My Programs" or "My Files", my progams will launch games, program etc (like in xbmc), with sections like "emulators" "sierra" "errr something else". and my files would just be basic file stuff, like moving files, deleting files, copying files, exactly the same as in xbmc. havent put much thought into either one, but my engine (if you could call it that, if not core) could easily be used to set either of them up, in a couple of days. im thining of doing programs, so i can play all my old sierra games, but err havent put much thought into it, anyone want one of these let me know, or have any suggestions for another plugin (not the stupid traffic map one (i got no use for it, in nz)).

Bgowland, it would be really nice to be able to launch some external players from within GBPVR.

reven,
I was hoping to use one of your plugins as a reference guide for writing a nintendo emulator. If you have a basic code layout that you could provide, I'd appreciate it. Unfortunately I don't have any programming experience other than ASP, VBSCRIPT, & Unix; but I consider myself a fast learner. I've known for a long time that I needed to learn C++ but usually need some sort of project to work on whenever I am learning something. This was just the motivation I was looking for. Basically I'd like to just initially focus on a NES emulator (Jnes) with a directory listing of all the games in a folder and when you select the game it automatically launches Jnes and plays the game. Eventually I'd like to see a "favorites" list where one could add their favorite games if they don't feel like browsing through all of them (I have over 500). And eventually support for multiple emulators...

However I wouldn't recomend that you guys wait on me if you are wanting to see this soon, it took me over 6 months to learn ASP effectively. I'll be happy to provide feedback and beta test for others in the meantime though...lol
