| What are people thinking of creating as add on Modules to Monkey? The ones I would like to see are: XML Loading / Parsing Web Socket Interface 3D? Box2D? Phil |
| ||
| SqlLite3 Wifi communication |
| ||
| XML has already been done, see bananas/skn3/config Box2D is mentioned in another thread, very early work in progress |
| ||
| For Box2D, I would probably wrap the original for Desktop/iOS targets, AS3 version for Flash, and perhaps the JS version for HTML5. As an experiment once, I got Box2D running on iOS in a day and a half... so it's not a huge job to do it this way. A lot safer too, IMO, since you have MUCH less to go wrong if someone else is coding the engine. Not sure what Box2Ds are available for Android... without googling, I can guess there's already a Java port of it. |

| Here's my wish list for Monkey Modules/additions (I know it's big) Physics Module (Box2D or the like) Networking SQLite Facebook Integration Twitter Integration OpenFeint Integration GameCenter Integration (iOS) In-App Purchase API Maps Integration (Google Maps) Native UI controls Barcode Scanner integration Also add Hardware Access for GPS Compass Camera Microphone (perhaps this could be added to mojo.input?) |
| ||
| This is my wish list at the moment. Sqlite Open URL command in browser on all platforms! Httpget for IOS indiepaths module is gr8 for flash and html 5 I might have a look of at these when I get time but it will be a long while. |
| ||
| completely agree with Greg, I bet you've read my mind - same concepts & wishes and almost same order (sqlite & networking first of all ;)... the whole list is key.. :) |
| ||
| SQLite would be helpful to me as well |
