So, as said before, I may work on this as a leisurely pursuit and if things work out I will release it in conjunction with my next batch of SexyCirrus views.
SexyCirrus Expanded is my primary concern for now, this is something on the side and there is no dedicated timeline for release but here's what I intend to add (or already have in some instances).
- Add Wikipedia as a scraper.
- Removal of defunct Allgame scraper.
- Addition of <rating> flag with scraping from TheGamesDB or manual entry.
- Support for Developer flags (alongside studio).
- Maybe add a players flag to be scraped from TheGamesDB.
- The ability to scrape technical data for systems from Wikipedia (CPU, Media Type, etc...)
Open to suggestions for other ideas. The plugin will he universal like the original and all skins should be able to use the Wikipedia scraper as well as assign these new flags, reading / displaying them will be another story as that is skin dependent but, as a shameless plug, you can be sure my SexyCirrus views will do so from the get go.
Hi Rufoo,
I'm glad that you start development of a AL variant !
In my opinion, AL users (retrogamer !) waiting for advanced filter like "number of player" and eventually displaying multi genre !
Currently, it is for me the only thing missing to definitively replace RCB !
That's will be great...
I hope you go at the end your project !
Congratulations !
