ModForge and ModPlay

Hi I was thinking about maybe reviving ModPlay and making a thing called ModForge. You would be able to upload image files and share them with other people. I got the idea from SourceForge. So I need some help with these and was wondering if the old ModPlay  people could come and work with me.  smile

Re: ModForge and ModPlay

There's somthing already like this, called 'mod-share'. I haven't personally seen it, but I belive it's a site where you can upload your mods and have people download them.


I'm back.
Maybe.

It's actually a site for uploading projects made in mods, not the mods themselves, but yeah.
It's at modshare.org

Hi al-x!  big_smile
The reason why GP1 and I disbanded Mod Play is because Mod share IV basically filled all that we wanted from Mod Play:  it's open source, has larger upload sizes now, will soon have an API for various things, and a java player is being worked on for individual mods.

I  have to say, though, that your idea of a "Mod Forge" is a good one.  I do have the old mod play WIP code, but, in my opinion, you'd be better off using Mod Share's code, and building off of that.

Best of luck with your project!  smile

Re: ModForge and ModPlay

I don't know where the Mod Share thread is, butfor the java player - wouldn't it be easier to just include Sqeak (somehow) and tell mod authors when they upload to Mod Share to upload it in sqeak form? Or somthing like that.?


I'm back.
