Module |
Description |
|
Ath's Algorithms |
My personal package of library functions. They're published because they
might be of use to you, but read the documentation to be sure before you buy
them, eh?
(Documentation here.
) |
|
Code Comment |
This isn't a module for leaving comments; rather, this a module for world
builders (collaborating or otherwise) to leave comments on their worlds, places
and objects for their own use. It contains a simple behavior which can be added
to worlds, places, and objects to store comment text relating to them. |
|
Coffee Drinker |
Provides the ability for you to serve drinkable coffee from the front counter
(or coffee maker, or whatever) of your cafés. Simply add this
behavior to any object, and enjoy. |
|
Companion Cube |
The Companion Cube will accompany you through every world you build. Please take
care of it. The Enrichment Center reminds you that the Weighted Companion Cube
will never threaten to stab you and, in fact, cannot speak.
(Note: despite the description, which is intended just to be reminiscent of
Portal, this is not a pet and will not follow you. It's just an object
template and its sprites.) |
|
Cross-World Data Client |
These two modules work together; the client stores and retrieves data from a
server instance configured in one world, which in effect allows persistent
storage and sharing of data between worlds.
(Documentation here.
) |
|
Cross-World Data Server |
|
Deplorable Word |
Just like the Deplorable Word in The Magician's Nephew, this behavior
kills everyone in the world except the speaker of the designated word. (Or
who touches a given object.) |
|
Dial Home Device |
A DHD, from Stargate SG-1, to go with the Stargate module. (See also
Stargate, below.) |
|
Disco Lives Forever! |
Why walk across your world when you can dance? Well, no reason, if you buy
this module.
(Warning: compatible with avatars_lite ONLY. For its
replacement for the new avatar system, see Funkywalk.) |
|
Embedded World |
A behavior to embed one world inside another world, and display it when an
object is used. |
|
Even More AFK |
Mark yourself AFK for longer periods (or just more distinctly, or when you may
still be technically at the keyboard, but just inattentive) with the Even More
AFK plug-in. Adds an "afk" floater to your avatar, with optional pop-up message
giving the reason you are AFK.
Once installed, the module lets you mark yourself AFK from your player menu, and
when you do so, an "AFK" image appears above your avatar's head to indicate your
AFK status. This also marks you AFK in chat, as if you had typed "/afk".
YYou can also mark yourself /afk in the new, with-image, style by using the
"/moreafk" chat command, with or without an optional message giving a reason.
If you supply a reason, it is shown as a pop-up hover message on the "AFK" image
as well as in "/who". |
|
Flame Sculpture |
A flame-like sculpture for your world. |
|
Favorite World
Gates |
Teleporters to your favorite worlds! This plug-in automatically updates a set of
gates in your world with teleporters to your favorite worlds, the latest
however-many you have gates for, each time your world starts up. Maintain a list
of worlds worth visiting without any additional effort on your part!
Decide which object you want to use for gates to your favorite worlds.
This object should not be used for anything else - remember, all
instances of this object within your world will be replaced with a gate to one
of your favorite worlds.
(In the showcase world, I use my
Mirror on the Wall
object for this; and for testing purposes, the module is set to use this by
default.)
Then add the Favorite World Gates behavior to your world (you must do
this manually; this module does not auto-install), set the template ID of the
objects you wish to use, and restart the world.
EE voila!
|
|
Funkywalk |
The plug-in that replaced Greased Floor and Disco Lives Forever! Welcome to
FUNKYWALK, bringing sliding and dancing your way across the world into the New
Avatar Era!
This package contains a "funkywalk" behavior when it is installed. Add this to
any and all places in your world in which you wish sliding or dancing to replace
walking, and select the desired walk animation in the behavior tool. If you
desire to limit funky-walking to a specific region in a world, enable that
option and enter the top, left, right, and bottom of the area in which you want
it to take place in tile coordinates.
YOU MUST RESTART YOUR WORLD (FROM debug OR world admin) BEFORE
FUNKYWALKING TAKES EFFECT. LIKEWISE, WHEN YOU REMOVE THE FUNKYWALK MODULE, YOU
MUST RESTART YOUR WORLD BEFORE FUNKYWALKING RETURNS TO NORMAL.
Funkywalking operates by replacing a portion of the Avatars Full module to deal
with avatar animations. While we have limited self-repair capabilities built
into the Funkywalk module, we take no responsibility for any failure of
Funkywalk capabilities or other world breakage resulting from an automatic
update of the Avatars Full module while Funkywalk is installed in your world.
While we will attempt to keep Funkywalk updated to match future changes to the
Avatars Full module, we make no commitment express or implied with regard to the
availability or timely delivery of such updates. Use of Funkywalk in your world
is done at world owner's risk. |
|
Greased Floora> |
Slide across the floor instead of walking! Good for simulating skating, like in
IcePond, or other non-walking movement, like in Grid Battle. Or just grease.
(Warning: compatible with avatars_lite ONLY. For its
replacement for the new avatar system, see Funkywalk.) |
|
LibraryThing |
A behavior to enable access to your
LibraryThing library catalog, or a given tag of it, from your bookshelves. |
|
Metaplace
Standard Time |
A clock for your world (a windowed digital clock, not an object in your world)
displaying Metaplace Standard Time.
Why?
Well, read this.
Attach this behavior to the place (note; not the world, the place) in which you
wish the Metaplace Standard Time to be displayed. The clock will then appear in
a window for all users who enter. |
|
Mirror on the Wall |
Mirror, mirror, on the wall... how many uses do you have? Well, scrying.
Answering questions. Being a portal. Or simply letting the Evil Queen or
Sorceress attend to her toilette. Just the thing to spice up your fantasy or
fairy-tale worlds. |
|
Prim (Second Life) |
For those of us who've come over to Metaplace from Second Life, here's a
nostalgia item. A lovingly rendered plywood prim, just like in the Old World.
(More seriously, I was testing my newly-learned ability to render. This is
product #1.)
Might be a good one to use to host the Second Life Gateway behavior. |
|
Programmable
Teleporter |
A specially modified teleportation "behavior", designed for use from scripts,
along with a library to allow easy usage of it. This is the teleportation
script used by the code that implements the Favorite World Gates module
and the hirable portals in the
Hall of Worlds.
(Documentation here.
) |
|
Ratings |
This module contains images representing the four ratings possible for worlds;
Everyone, Teen, Mature, and Adults Only (essentially, the same images as are
used on world profile pages). These are intended for use from script. The
easiest way to use them from your script is to IncludeScript ('127361:166') ,
which script includes constants to reference each image, and giving the width
and height of these ratings images. |
|
RSS Feed Reader> |
Add this behavior to any object to turn it into a pop-up RSS feed reader, with
links to the articles. |
|
Safe |
Someplace to keep cashy money! |
|
Second Life Gateway |
A behavior to enable teleporting from Metaplace to a location in Second Life.
(Also see "Metaplace Gateway"
over here
for the other half of the solution.) |
|
Server Rack |
A simple 19" rack to keep servers and networking equipment in. |
|
Show Last Tweet |
A very simple twitter behavior which displays your last tweet in a window in
your world. (This is intended as a replacement for jeffmcnab's Basic Twitter
Behavior, which no longer shows a configuration interface, presumably since the
behavior tool was updated.) |
|
Show Your Nationality |
Allows visitors to worlds with this module installed to display their
nationality in the form of their nation's flag over their shoulder. A
global option allows them to set it once and have it work in every world that
uses this option. |
|
Sit On Lap |
Is your world feeling romantic? Let people sit on each others' laps with this
module. (And the sittee's permission, of course.) |
|
Sssh! |
Shushes anyone it hears yelling. (This was originally built for the
Librarian in Library
of Metaplace.) |
|
Stargate |
A stargate, from Stargate SG-1. Comes with mp_gate functionality for
inter-world teleportation. (See also Dial Home Device, above.) |
|
User Profile Access |
An add-on allowing easy access to user profile information from the player
object.
(Documentation here.
) |
|
Virtual Elitism |
We We all know the problem with newbies. And that problem isn't newbies per se, no,
but rather that anywhere on the Internet with free sign-up, there are a thousand
thousand bored jackasses with nothing better to do than cause trouble among the
newbies. Therefore, in the spirit of the Second Life "allow only paying
customers on my land" option, Virtual Elitism allows you to restrict entry to
your world to only those people who have invested significant time and/or money
in Metaplace. |
|
World Profile
Access |
An add-on allowing easy access to world profile information from the world
object.
(Documentation here.
) |
|
World Sheaf> |
A system for linking multiple worlds into a single "sheaf" of worlds, with
mechanisms for multiworld announcements and for one world to fire triggers in
all worlds of the sheaf.
(Documentation here.
) |
|
XML / Table Library |
A library for translating back and forth between Lua tables and XML (derived
from Obo's Table to XML functions here:
http://www.metaplace.com/wiki/index.php/Table_to_XML ). I do this a lot, so
I thought I'd wrap my version up in a library for reuse and public use.
(Documentation here.
