Unfortunately, I think that this website has died out. Does anyone know a site where nice plugins for GL are placed, both free and paid plugins. Unfortunately, nothing is posted on Dayo's website anymore

It's a great shame indeed @tom39, it seems the site has simply been left in limbo.

A number of people have put their hand up with a view to taking it over and trying to resurrect the site but to no avail.

What version of GL is your game using and what mods do you seek?

I am likely taking down a game in the near future and disposing of its assets.

I don't see this site as dead or in limbo. Times change forums are a thing of the past, you can now message people directly and get a reply instantly. No need to make forum posts and wait for replies.

The forum is a great archive and has decades of knowledge.

If there are ideas you have on how to boost activity im all for it.

@Dayo,

MWG's is the very definition of dead and in limbo, nothing is happening here and those features which primarily kept it running have been removed.

You suggest forums are a thing of the past and yes, you can now message directly (Discord perhaps) and get a reply instantly but forums are a repository of questions and replies offered to all in a structured sense, while messaging platforms conduct business on either a person to person basis or you can join a group to discuss 'stuff' albeit with any real structure which I believe is the reason why forums are still relevant in 2025.

Yes, this particular forum is a great archive with decades of knowledge buts it's all old hat and from the past, what about making web games in 2025 with all the advances in software and technology that offers?

Who is going to want tips and advice on starting a serious game with MCC V1 and PHP5?

Useful for an insight into the 'olden days' sure but hardly relevant when putting together a game now.

If the goal is for MWG's to be an archive then mission accomplished, may as well prevent new accounts and people logging in. 

As for ideas on how to boost activity, they have been there all along, restore the marketplace and once again offer hosting service for members, that's a good start.

I know that it's been said that the site is too time consuming, to costly, I have other interests and more and I know Invision does not support a marketplace any longer, but big whoop, change the software, there are other options and much less expensive and if those above reasons are why the site now languishes, then it's definitely time for another change of ownership, to people who will give it some love ... in my opinion. 🙂

@tom39 ... have a look here OpenPBBG - Marketplace, you may find what you are after. 🙂

I already have all the modules listed here, but almost nothing is posted here anymore, I'm just looking for newer modules

Ahh ok, there was a time when dev's posted about their mods both current and upcoming but without a marketplace this practice is now redundant.

Perhaps offering a suggestion to GL's author on what you would like to add to your game may bear fruit.

Is anyone at all developing any new mods for GL???

 

@Dayo ... do you have any exciting new mods on the drawing board?

I did some mods a while ago lost them in HDD crash along with 14 years of work I might ask Dayo for a working copy so I can try my hand once again at GL mod creating
