Announce your plugin work in progress here!!!!!!!!

[CoolHammer]

Hello all,

Started a My Quiz plugin. Progress is slow since this is my very first serious attempt to do something with C# and MP.

Target:
To create a plugin which read a quiz information from .xml file and store a score to a .xml file. Supports pictures and up to five questions (A, B, C, D, F).

Current status:
Playing with MCE skin and GUI.

So everyone, now is time to find those trvial pursuit cards. :-)

Hey folks,

I am working on a new myProgram version. Wish I could check in but there's still stuff to do!

I've reworked the plugin definition forms:
* added tooltips, user sees now which fields are mandatory
* added treeview (preparing a multi-level browsing of myProgram items)
* did a definition screen per source-type => only the relevant fields are really visible now...
* (probably) finished the new database version, so db is ready for the next few goodies that have to be devved....

That's it for tonight..... have fun!

Daniel

Edit:
here's a screenshot from the new setup form:

Thanks for the link. I had not yet seen that. There are some nice features in there that I'll look at putting in the plugin.

I was going to do that as well. Oh well, you beat me to it Sounds like you have the YAC listener done, but I have that much done as well in C#. If you need that code, let me know.

A worldclock... perhaps even with alarm function. Handy for when you have family in different timezones (never again: whoops sorry i didnt call, forgot the time)

Started working on a TTS (Text to Speech Plugin) that I hope will be open to other plugins to make MP say whatever they want.

But it's gonna take a while, I'm just starting out (the talking isnt hard, I have that already, but the integration in MP.....weeehh) hehe

Anyways, I also want to have a generic plugin that tells the user information, maybe a key button could be assigned to this that will read (user defined) information.

I've just started working on enhancing the Weather plugin to display multiple images. I noticed that quite a few people in the feature request forum have requested this, and thought it would be a nice thing try developing.

I'm currently developing a Shoutcast PLS downloader plugin.

This work only applies to the actual grabbing of cover art - not the interface with which the user will select the appropriate downloaded cover art. This will probably have to be implemented by someone else (Frodo?), since I am not yet familiar with the GUILibrary.

Progress Report The fetching of album art works for Amazon, Buy.com, Walmart and Google picture search is done, and fairly clean (though I still need to fix it up a bit more). Ready to be integrated into MP by someone else. (Maybe me, I'm gonna try to do My Lyrics first )

How are you progressing with this? I was going to implement some amazone web services 4.0 code that I wrote, but I see you may have already started (finished?) something like that?
