Hi! Note csexternal is just a repository for third party plugins, and anyone is invited to add any plugins he has there (not sure this is clear from genjix' email). I can give appropriate permissions there to anyone that wants them.
We created this repository because of the feeling that many plugins where being lost or not shared just because they were not fit (or generic) enough for csextra or cs (or cel). (mmm, im remembering now some water plugin from piotr :)) Also note the repository contains separate work from several devs, but it doesnt mean we have studied every plugin together, actually, the idea here is that devs can have some freedom to work on their own plugins. We think this repository can be good to foster more crazy plugins for cs, as we have the feeeling that for a plugin infrastructure it has very few third-party plugins. (compare to http://pure-data.sourceforge.net/old/documentation.php) Also, i think it can free main devs a (very very little) bit more to work in cs core (as opposed to burden all plugins on their shoulders). I take responsibility of this repository maintenance. some comments on amir's description of current plugins: Amir Taaki wrote: > Hello, > > https://b2cs.delcorp.org/svn/csexternal/trunk > > This is an experimental repository with plugins from Hristo, me and Pablo. > > blenderproc/ > Can interpret blender texture plugins as procedural textures.

This is older (or starting) implementation of ffmpeg player as procedural texture, still here for historical reasons, but the implementation is ugly, people interested is more recommended to go for the ffmpegimg. the qt references are due to this being initially a libquicktime (ie, mov) reader, but moved to use ffmpeg later so more video types can be read. > odephysics/ > Alternate physics plugin that tries to address several arguable design > decisions in default cs physics. > > osc/ > OpenSoundControl is a sound protocol for sending commands over the network. > http://www.cnmat.berkeley.edu/OpenSoundControl/ > Here its been adapted into several cs plugins that are dynamically loaded to > edit scenes depending on commands sent.
