Tonight I have created and released a fork of GKusnick's SkunkVision to the Virindi View System. It is available on my site. (The original SkunkVision was released under the MIT license. The forked version is also.)

Example screenshot:

Available at:
http://www.virindi.net/plugins

In the future, where licenses permit, I would like to provide other VVS editions of plugins, or assist authors in converting. My goal is to get as many available plugins as possible to run under Virindi Views (most plugins will be set up to run under either Virindi Views or classic Decal Views, whichever is available).

Btw.. Thanks again for this.
As I mentioned ingame.
Here is a list of plugins that I would love to see you get permission from authors to convert:
* GoArrow
* SpellBar Saver
* Quest Timer
* LogWiz
* SSSort
* HWAC Stats
* Alinco3
* Radar Addon
* MiniMap

Thanks.

I'd love to see muletradeit converted over, might let me not have to restart my tradebot every 8hrs from running out of memory.

There's no chance I'm going to allow anyone else access to the source code for any of my plugins, and radar add-on doesn't have a view anyway. Besides, I've already got my own view system (AC+ uses it).

Yes, well, as you say there wouldn't be any point to that anyhow. AC+ and Minimap at least can both run fine with Decal Views disabled, which is all that really matters.

Ah... sweet... two plugins I can mark off my list then.
Seems Virindi & Thorfinn had same idea of abandoning the decal views service

And just to clarify.
I know what service VVS is in decal (Virindi View Service), but what view service is the default decal one and which one is the one used by Thorfinn?
I'm thinking it's Decal Render Service for decal's default view.. but can't pinpoint the view service for Thorfinn's plugins.
Granted I only have MiniMap and Radar-Addon installed and not AC+.

Flynn's plugins draw using Decal HUDs (Decal Render Service).

Normal Decal Views are managed by the Decal Inject Service, which also does other things so you can't just turn it off.

Apparently I'm not. It's been awhile for me and for some reason I MIRC isn't connecting for me.
