Hi VjSKy,
There is a great resource for Freeframe developing on Freeframe.org.
This is the official site for freeframe.
There is a nice SDK for C++ wich makes developing freeframe plugins a breeze.
If you are using Delphi for instance (wich we do) i can send you a simple template of a standard freeframe plugin if you would like.
Cheers
Edwin

i've found the resources and they are raly good, now, can anybody tell me how to owerlay a picture from one computer to another running resolume and my plugin??
Sitiation:
PC1(sms server) outputs scrolling sms pictures.
PC2 (running resolume) should somehow recievi these pictures ( via network) and combine it with the single frame in the processFrame prcedure.
I will need a tool that captures the secondary monitor on pc1 and streams it to net and my pc2 should have a piece of code to recieve that data. somting like vidnet.
I am a vb programmer with some konowlage of delphi and c++ and C#.
Cheers, VjSky

Danger,
i will post a link to some delphi code wich you can directly use and compile.
i will post the link later this day..
VjSky, getting something like vidnet to work is a lot of work. Maybe you can send the data through a simple socket. Or maybe you can hack it a bit by sharing a network drive wich you read the pictures from. So the sms manager saves the messages to that drive and the other computer reads from that same location. This probably works fine if you don't need to refresh the pictures constantly.
Cheers

Hi All,
Here is a link to Delphi examples of two freeframe plugins.
One effect and one source plugin.
The examples are updated so that they also work with Pete's freechain and Wax for instance.
