Thread: Discussion of Standardization in RoadRunner skins, plugins, addons and whatever else

From the release notes (Upcoming release mentioned in this post), the presets are no longer stored in the root RR folder, and are now in the Road Runner/Presets folder.

The forums have not been that active lately, but what is happening is all good stuff!

- New plugins folder & pluginsPath in the rr.ini, Plugins manager, Presets folder, backgrounds folder, Documentation folder, logo's folder.......

- Plugins are now starting to get organized in the plugins sub-forum.....

This has all been long overdue stuff, and is all starting to really come together!

Yeah!!

i wondered if its worth making the logos folder apart of this standard, as so many skins here now have logos as part of their skin to give the user his/her's own choice to define the skin to their personnel taste,

why not have a logo's folder in rr root so the skins don't have to add this folder to there skin file, this will help in a small way for the skin file size so also making it easier and quicker for downloading.look how many times you would down load a logo's folder when you down load a skin.

i don't mean for this to be hardcoded in rr , its only for skinners to change a couple of lines and done ,

Does this seem a good idea , especially for those skin junkies out there ( you know who you are lol..)

Looks like JohnWPB is onboard, any others willing to join in?

Sounds good to me...

I'm surprised that it took this long to bring this back up to the surface...

This is one of the reasons why I haven't released the updated RRTrafficCams with cameras by GPS location.

What is the point on me changing it, if they keep changing the way the plugins work and don't set a definitive standard.


Just means I spend more time doing the plugins for Centrafuse rather than RideRunner, at least I know where I stand with that.
