Topic:
Development: Unofficial Addon: Game Trailers AddedLong Description:
I have silently been working on a few projects aimed specifically at vgcollect.com. The latest release of mine is an
UNOFFICIAL release for Game Trailers support. By
UNOFFICIAL I mean that it was
NOT created by the developers of vgcollect.com - it was developed by
ME aka
bugs181 aka
Levi. This version is slower than if the support were added directly by
matt. The reason for this is rather technical. In lamens terms it's because I don't have access to matt's code and can't add the support natively so I have to use work-arounds like my own server, database, and etc. I did however develop this to be extended and implemented with ease by matt - so if there is enough user demand for a feature built right into the website, give matt a shoutout in the
Site Feedback thread and express your feelings on the
Game Trailers addon support.
Help Wanted:Before we get started I wanted to give a friendly shout out to any other developers or web designers here lurking around on the forum. If matt has no interest in designing this further or doesn't have the time - I will need somebody to come up with a creative design. My programming skills are pretty decent but html is my Kryptonite. I absolutely dislike it very much and we have a fairly mutual relationship with one another. Hit me up on here or PM if you have interest in helping with this project.
Features:- View available game trailers via YouTube embed.
- Fancy popup that plays youtube video automatically when clicked.
- YouTube player controls disappear while watching trailer.
Features to Come:- Dynamically show more videos if requested.
