hello everybody!

i really enjoy playing around with all the freeframe plugins, especially The Strip Show by Syzygy Visuals.
inspired by this, i would love to try coding such plugs by myself, but dont know where to start at all...

could anyone help me getting started?
i checked sopme doccumentations at sourceforge, but couldn't figure out a lot...

what software do i need to code?
what skills are required?
are there any tutorials for noobs like me?

regards,
Gordon Freeman

they are codded in C++ if im not mistaken, so it would be a good idae to learn C++. aprt from that there is a teplate file for Freeframe on the freeframe webpage at sourceforge.

you also have to get it to compile, ive had no luck getting any free frame plugins to compile, so i dont know whats going on there.

Hi All,
freeframe plugins can be coded in any language as long as it results in a usuable dll.
i code the plugins in Delphi.
There is a good download on sourceforge to get you going. There is a sample plugin for delphi and c++ available. They should compile right away. There is also a directshow wrapper for freeframe plugins made in delphi.
check out the following download page.
sourceforge
download the latest zip file (it's the first in the list).

also check out the freeframe site itself.
