New, bigger and cleaner extension list

Thanks to Yves update which allows us to change default group of Create New Object I was able to make more use of my extension list (based on current FusionWiki with some modifications).

Please login to see this link. you can find zipped ext.ini file of all published and available extensions (401).

The list doesn't consist any closed beta extensions (Irrlicht) or not available for public (Hempuli object) or all extensions from File Archive/Help forums if such were created (and I recall that they were) I will try to localize them and add them to list which I plan to update, so yeah have fun.

Categories are as follow:

.Audio - All audio objects
.Data handling/storage - general objects for data handling and storage
.Data handling/storage Arrays - All array objects
.Data handling/storage SQL - All SQL objects
.Encryption/hashes - All security objects
.Eventing - Objects related to events
.Files - File related objects
.Game Orientated - general game orientated objects
.Game Orientated Movement - movement related objects
.Graphical - general graphical objects
.Graphical 3D - all 3D extensions
.Graphical effects - Effect extensions
.Mathematics - Mathematical extensions
.Networking - All networking extensions
.Scripting - All scripting allowing extensions
.String parsing/manipulation - all string and manipulators
.System - System related objects
.Time - Time and date objects
.User Input - Allowances for user input
.User Interface - User interface objects
.User Interface controls - Controls of interface
.Video - All video objects
.Z Exporters - Extensions compatible with all exporters
.Z Flash - Extensions compatible with Flash only (not counting .Z Exporters)
.Z Flash & Java - Extensions compatible for Flash and Java (not Mobile one - not counting .Z Exporters)
.Z Java - Extensions compatible with Java only (not counting .Z Exporters)
.Z Mobile - Extensions compatible with Mobile (not counting .Z Exporters and .Z Java)
.ZZ HWA - extensions recompiled for HWA
.ZZ Unicode - extensions recompiled for Unicode
.ZZZ Discontinued - extensions which are discontinued
All objects - list of all 401 objects which is loading quite a long time

Just remember 3 things:

1st don't forget to backup your exts.ini file (extension folder) before copying this one cause it removes original categories!
2nd I'm not saying that it's perfect list, it's proposal which sorts out a bit of extensions, and allows you to see which are available for all exporters, which for only particular one (don't forget that to particular ones you have to add those available for all of them!)
3rd it's only extension list not extensions themselves so if you don't have some of extensions they will exist in ini file but won't show up on list.

Disclaimer:

I asked Yves to introduce that small change in CNO and sorted those extensions in this way because I want to create separate groups of extensions for my projects which I plan to have multiplatform so knowing which extensions are available and precisely what they are doing or are designed for was quite crucial for me. If you don't like it or you've got any suggestions feel free to comment.

If you will set All objects with dot and delete rest of them it should be all right.

All grats should go to Joshtek, Sortacore, Sphax, AdamDobay and Yves for changing one small thing in build 250 for me and everyone else who I forgot to motivate me and give me a hand in organization of those events.

I'm glad that you are finding it useful and I will try to update the list ASAP. The good thing about it is that, when any new extension appears because of lack of default categories it's signed as uncategorised (other) so you can easily add it to any other category (this is one of reasons why I used dots).

Hopefully the thread would be sticked.

With about 400 extension it is hard.

Thanks to Jeff for uploading video from iOS exporter I was able to create Please login to see this link. with extensions which are iOS compatible. But at the same time the list of extensions to which we don't have access increased by 7 by following Entries:

Accelerometer Object
iPhone Button
iPhone Joystick Control object
iPhone Multiple Line Editbox
iPhone Multiple Touch
iPhone Single Line Editbox
Location object

Because of that we've got additional categories:

.Z iOS & Flash
.Z iOS & Flash & Java
.Z iOS & Java
.Z iOS & Mobile

When I will get access to names of mfx files of above 7 entries I will add category .Z iOS for iOS dedicated extensions (anyone who can help with that one might PM me).

P.S.
It's quite nice to see that even CT staff is using this extension list

P.P.S.
I cleaned .Z Flash & Java group by deleting extensions which appear in .Z Exporters group.

Thanks Nifflas. I only put it there cause you are using it for your projects, which are mostly games. But I will correct it a bit later on - I'm still trying to get names of iOS extensions.

OK next update guys:

I got information that I will be provided with names of extensions of iOS runtime when it will be released, so until then they will have it in Other category.

What's more I'm looking for extension called Bezier Curve which was created by kornelijepetak - if anyone posses it could he share with it?

New in this list:

3D Active moved from Game Orientated to Graphical 3D
Nifflas & Stochastic utilities moved from Game Orientated to Mathematical
Text To Speech moved from Audio to Discontinued

Object Mover & Randomizer added to new Java & Mobile category
iOS & Mobile change name to iOS & Java & Mobile.

Link is the same like Please login to see this link..

Huge thanks for that extension StephenL! But I just wanted to go to sleep ^^' Oh well...

[update]

Extension list is Please login to see this link. with Bezier Object in group Mathematics.

So only extensions which are not on the list and I am are aware of them include:

Hempuli Object (ownership by Hempuli)
iOS extension family (ownership by Clickteam)
Irrlicht object extension family (ownership by Clickteam)
Steam extensions (ownership by Subsoap)

Approximately it's about 15 extensions in total. How do you think should be update Fusion Wiki page?

Oh and I'm not counting Flash Haxx as Discontinued extension (like it is stated on Fusion Wiki) because AS Dynamics won't be released at least in form which it was thought to be released what Jamie stated in other thread.

After Jacob suggestion and my personal feeling I decided to make a bit heavy update for the list. To make it simpler to accept by old fashioned clickers, as well as more user friendly I decided to delete all decimal points.

Thanks to that All Objects are again on top of all groups, as well as you can select them by pressing first letter of group name.

But to keep the order of the groups following changes have been done:

* .ZZ HWA and .ZZ Unicode are now called Vr HWA and Vr Unicode (Vr stands for Version)
* .ZZZ Discontinued was renamed to XXX Discontinued and stays between Versions and Exporters
* All Exporters from .Z have been renamed to Xport (Xport stands for Exporter)
* Now the group of extensions compatible with ALL* runtimes is called Xport All
* New Group for extensions was created - it's Xport Python and comes with all extensions currently fully compatible with Python Exporter - Codename Anaconda. (The * next to all connects with this groups because not all of those extensions are fully compatible ATM and this is also the reason why I haven't created other pairs of exporters for Python)

Message Box and Asker (old Message Box) was added to Vr Unicode
Internal List Object was added to User Interface Controls

The link is like always the same so have fun and give some more feedback: Please login to see this link.

I put it there cause it does similar functionality to other extensions - but what do you think would be better? String parsing/manipulation?
