Script module database on homepage?

Why not have a page on the main AGS site for modules, that's set up like the one for games?  One could still upload a screenshot, and give a description of what their module does, etc.  I think that would be most helpful for those looking for modules in general, rather than for a specific task.

You could do like SSH does and put them into the "Non-Adventure" category.

Yes, you could, but I still think we should make full support for them.  After all, there is/was a support like the one for games for plugins, isn't/wasn't there?  I just think it would be useful to be able to browse all the modules people have created and wanted to share, just like one can with games.

No I don't...

anyway, I think this is a good idea. Incidentally, I wrote some PHP that parses an SCM file and outputs the documentation in the header (using the template I use)

Yeah, sorry. Don't know where I got the idea. I thought I'd seen some of your script modules in there the other day.

I think it may also be doable if Skimbleshanks (run by Scummbuddy now I think) gets some face lift and provides better navigation on its content (the freewebs ads are quite annoying though).

Akumayo

I think it would be more practical, though, to put them on the main site, where they will be seen more.

I agree that this would be a good idea, if I get the time at some point I'll try and do it.

Akumayo

Thanks!  I'm glad more than just myself thinks it's a good idea (though I was pretty sure SSH would).

I also think that would be nice to have the complete list of modules in the main site.
