OpenRPG Plugin HQ
//plugins
This is where OpenRPG plugins are made available. You can use your browser's search function (usually CTRL+F) to find a specific plugin, or you can browse plugins by category.
To use a plugin, you first have to have OpenRPG 1.6.3 or higher. If you do not have 1.6.3, you must upgrade before you can use plugins. The plugins on this site may or may not work with patched versions of older clients, so OpenRPG versions less than 1.6.3 are not supported. Sorry!
Once you've started the correct version of OpenRPG, Tools > Plugins should bring up the Plugin Control Panel, where you can use the checkboxes in order to enable the plugins. Be sure to use the Plugin Info button to find out how to use each individual plugin. Be careful, because sometimes plugins conflict (for example, Idle Time and NowPlaying) which can cause undesirable results, though problems are usually minor. If you want, you can set up some plugins to automatically load when you start OpenRPG by going to Main > Plugins Loaded on Startup.
To install a plugin you have downloaded, just extract the file to the plugins/ directory of OpenRPG. If you have OpenRPG running, you can hit Update List to refresh the list so you can then enable the plugin. A caution: plugins run some code when read into the list, so if you have a plugin from a source you don't trust, don't even put it in your /plugins folder, or else any code in that plugin will be run when you start OpenRPG.
| download | last update | author | default? | description |
| xx1337 | 2005-11-05 | mDuo13 | No | Turns all your text into the hacker language 1337, as well as displaying everyone else's in 1337. HTML tags still work fine though. |
| xxaliaslib | 2003-01-20 | mDuo13 | No | DISCONTINUED, because it's glitchy and a mess of code. Furthermore, most of what it does is replicated by the standard Alias Library. Creates a window where you can enter a list of aliases, give each one of them text styles, and switch between them with the PageUp and PageDown keys. |
| xxarsmagica | 2005-02-16 | mDuo13 | No | Allows you to roll special dice macros for Ars Magica. It's not a full-fledged dieroller, but it's a quick substitute for one. |
| xxautogreet | 2005-11-05 | mDuo13 | No | Greets someone whenever they enter the room. Try not to annoy people with it. |
| xxblackjack | 2005-04-24 | mDuo13, Woody | No | Lets you play a 1-player game of blackjack on OpenRPG. |
| xxblank | 2005-11-06 | Woody, mDuo13 | Yes | This plugin does nothing. Instead, it should be used as the template to make other plugins. It has a whole lot of information on how to make a plugin. |
| xxcarddealer | 2005-02-16 | cogollo | No | Allows you to simulate a deck of cards in OpenRPG for rudimentary card games. It doesn't currently support multiple people drawing from the same deck. |
| xxchatbot | 2003-03-08 | Woody, SSFSX17, mDuo13 | No | DISCONTINUED, because it's glitchy and really really complicated (and hard to test). Automatically replies to prompts with answers written in the wordlist file(s). Has support for variables, password-activated responses, and remote controlling. |
| xxemote | 2005-04-28 | Woody, mDuo13 | No | Changes your emotes to the be the same color as your regular text. Also keeps track of other people's text colors, and colorizes their emotes to be the same color as their text. |
| xxfontchng | 2005-09-22 | mDuo13 | Yes | Allows you to make your own text appear with a personalized font. Only people who have the font will be able to see it. |
| xxgsc | 2005-10-19 | Woody, mDuo13 | Yes | Gives you a window to let you put your AC and HP in your status and track them easily. |
| xxgvm | 2005-11-06 | mDuo13 | No | DISCONTINUED, because xxvarmaster does pretty much everything it does, and more. Lets you store and recall variables, which you can use in curly-bracket die rolls and your status. |
| xxhiddendice | 2005-12-09 | mDuo13 | No | Makes rolls in double-brackets invisible to other players. Useful for GMs who want to quickly roll dice that players can't see, but to let the players know they're rolling. Now works with text nodes and other sources of hidden rolls. |
| xxidletime | 2005-01-25 | Woody, mDuo13 | No | DISCONTINUED, because it was eventually incorporated into the xxstatus plugin. This is only for historical purposes now. |
| xxinit | 2005-03-09 | Woody, Darloth | Yes | Collects and sorts initiative rolls for D&D or Shadowrun. Also see the Initiative Tool 2.2 which builds on this plugin with Shadowrun 4 intiative, and 'effects' for both systems. |
| xxinit22 | 2005-12-21 | Woody, Darloth, Veggiesama, magoo | No | Collects and sorts initiative rolls for D&D or Shadowrun 4, and has better handling of initiative changes, special effects, and so forth from the original xxinit. Also see this thread for help. (Fixed for OpenRPG 1.6.3) |
| xxmaketab | 2005-01-29 | mDuo13, Mercenary | No | DISCONTINUED, because it has been incorporated straight into the base code as the /tab function. |
| xxmirror | 2005-04-28 | mDuo13 | No | Reverses all text in chat (not just your own). Be careful not to make yourself very unpopular by using this plugin. |
| xxnamechange | 2005-04-28 | mDuo13 | No | Provides a /myname command that lets you change your name to something without a length limit. Good for names with lots of HTML in them. |
| xxnamesound | 2005-11-06 | mDuo13 | No | Makes a sound whenever your name is said in chat. You can also add nicknames to trigger it. |
| xxnowplaying | 2005-11-06 | mDuo13 | No | Posts what's playing in Winamp into your status. |
| xxooc | 2005-04-28 | mDuo13 | No | Helps you make out of character comments surrounded by double-parentheses. |
| xxpm | 2005-09-26 | mDuo13 | No | DISCONTINUED, because it's a messy hack, and it doesn't work when "Show ID in Chat" is on. Works mostly okay otherwise, but it's such a mess that if I were to fix it, I'd have to redo it from scratch. |
| xxprotec | 2005-07-27 | mDuo13 | No | DISCONTINUED, because its functionality has been incorporated into the main code. See the Settings > Chat > Show_Images_in_Chat setting. Blocks images, background color changes, and text alignment changes in chat. |
| xxquotebox | 2005-11-06 | frobnic8, mDuo13 | No | Lets the GM easily put descriptive text into a box so that it stands out. You can do this built-in with /d but this plugin gives you more options for styling the box. |
| xxroller | 2005-04-28 | mDuo13, Woody | No | Rolls stats for AD&D 2nd Edition with a graphical interface and then puts them into a character sheet in your game tree. |
| xxsavewindow | 2005-09-22 | mDuo13 | Yes | Saves and restores the position of OpenRPG's main window whenever you close and reopen it. Has to be enabled to save the position, and has to be set to load on startup to restore the position. |
| xxscramble | 2005-04-28 | mDuo13 | No | An 'unscramble the word' game you can play with other people on OpenRPG if you get bored. |
| xxsendas | 2005-12-07 | mDuo13 | No | Lets you specify an alias at the chat input line, so you don't have to take your hands off the keyboard to pick an alias from the dropdown. You can even make up aliases on the spot. |
| xxsmiley | 2005-03-11 | mDuo13 | Yes | Turns emoticons in the chat into smiley images. |
| xxsoundfx | 2005-12-09 | mDuo13 | No | Lets you trigger WAV-format sounds on other users' computers through OpenRPG. All users must have the plugin and the sound file. |
| xxspell | 2005-11-06 | Woody, mDuo13 | Yes | Automatically corrects a few common spelling errors. You can edit the plugin to change what it corrects. |
| xxstatus | 2005-03-09 | Woody, mDuo13 | Yes | Puts the number of minutes since you last spoke into your status. You can also set a special status for when you're idle 1 minute or more. |
| xxurl2link | 2005-10-30 | tdb30_, mDuo13 | Yes | Automatically converts URLs into clickable links. |
| xxvarmaster | 2006-04-25 | Bruce Kroeze, mDuo13 | No | Lets you store and modify game variables, place them in your status, and so forth. It does pretty much everything xxgvm does, and more. I've personally added a graphical interface, so you can see your variables and edit them in a grid, and change your status formula. |
| xxwhispr | 2005-07-06 | Woody | Yes | Creates an alias whisper (/a) function that lets you whisper to people by name instead of ID#. |
| xxwoodnet | 2005-01-21 | Woody | No | DISCONTINUED, because the Woodnet Trackers with which this used to interface are down indefinitely (because Woody is gone). Lets you easily interface with Woodnet Trackers to see who's logged onto which servers, and even send messages between servers. |
