You know you all have bits of incomplete plug-ins which will never see the light of day. Why not donate them for the genneral use of the EV community?

How about my "Master List of Unused Plugin Ideas" thread? (go back to the Dev Board main page, then look down....."

Maybe something like a shipyard, except plug-ins. It would be a great idea for new people wanting to build plug-ins, as they could see and learn from other plug-ins.

ok, how do i upload a failed project?

(URL=http://www.geocities.com/infini_d_maniac -
maybe we could as ambrosia to put a page like the one to upload & download ev/evo/evn plugs.....
They could make something like "Abandonplug site"
(yeah thats gonna happen)------------------

Is this going to happen, I know this post goes back a bit, but it is a really good idea.
If it has happened where is it?

Uhm, what's the point of having a site where people can upload unused plugs? No offense, but most of these have very little codework in them -- take Age of Exploration, for example. I have three or four seperate plugs -- one for blasters (no coding, just pix), one for ships (they're gonna be used later, so they're not getting released to public domain anyway), and one for systems (that's available to anyone who wants it). But I also have a lot of stuff that I still remember, such as how we were planning to do certain missions, weapons, outfits, ships, systems, planets, and governments. The storylines that I have written aren't completed, so they wouldn't do anyone any good. I may be wrong, but I get the feeling that a lot of vaporware is like this, and if it is, then an upload page isn't gonna do anybody too much good.

This could give them an idea, and a head start on a plug. If someone already did half the graphics and systems and such, and a person comes along and likes it, that person has the chance to resurect the plug, and maybe finish it this time.

Hey, I'd be real happy to do it I have plenty of Wep Developing experience and have got enough graphics programs to make it look good.
The point of doing it would be so anyone who goes to the site, can get a whole host of ideas... people can steal something they like from the unused plugs... also people could get a good idea of how to do things, just from seeing other peoples work, even if it is half finished.
You could expand your "master list of unsued plugin ideas", Spacecowboy and give people the option to share the unused ideas aswell.
It wouldn't neccessarily just have to be a site for half completed plugs.

Okay. Good. I was just questioning the feasibility of having a site with just an upload/download page. A forum would work as well. And as to my Master List idea, nobody really seemed to care for it too much, and it's down on page 3 or 4 somewhere...

Sounds like an interesting idea, what about legal stuff? Maybe you can put up a disclaimer to those who will upload unfinished plugins.
What I would like to see is Ambrosia taking off all those useless plugs from their plugin addons page and put them into the Master List of Unused Plugin Ideas website.
Personally, I would call this the Salvage Vaporware Site, but that´s just me.
