Here are some programs which have been created by outside developers, you may call them third party developers, we like to think of them as pioneers and heroes. They are examples of how easy it is to extend Project Dogwaffle or turn your existing program into a companion or plugin. Some tools here that are not really plugins uniquely made for Project Dogwaffle, but still  excellent companion tools.

Please note:
our own plugins are here - Below are 3rd-party plugins  & add-ons

PJW Production's Animation Plugins

(video transitions & FX)
by Paul Wyskowski

A fabulous collection of plugins that allow for video transition effects over your Dogwaffle animations

Great for 3D animators too!




v1.2 is now
freeware (!)



DoggyFX




HOT!

The full version 1.2 is now free!

Great transitions, fades, and new filter effects (e.g. Nightvision, white noise...). The commercial version also allows for combining (stitching together) multiple clips. Also has a Sprite Sheet creation tool, and animated Gif import/exports, MNG,....



tBDW - thinBasic
Project Dogwaffle
scriptable interface


by Marco Pontello




freeware 



> details here

Marco also wrote the Lua scripting interface (DogLua)


the DWA Viewer
A free viewer for animations saved in Project Dogwaffle's native (uncompressed) .dwa format.




freeware 

includes source code!



There's a compact version that uses the Penny dll, and a standalone, independent version, as well as source code for developers.


DogWeaver

This is a plugin for Artweaver, a paint and imaging program. It creates a connection to a running session of Project Dogwaffle (or PD Particles, coming soon), to allow sending images to and from Artweaver directly, without the Clipboard or files.





freeware 





Artweaver also supports LUA filters with our GUIserver, so you can exchange filters written as Lua scripts between these two programs too.
More info here


Thumb Plug TGA
an extension for Windows Explorer to view thumbnails of TARGA (*.tga) files, which is the preferred format for Project DOgwaffle.




freeware 




Not specifically made or only for Dogwaffle - but so useful! Another great & free tool by Greggman

DogLua

Lua Scripting is available for Project Dogwaffle. Make your own filters, test new special fx algorithms, experiment with math, share your filters with Lua/gluas users from GIMP, Artweaver and other programs etc...



freeware 



more info here - this is perpetual work in progress, as new scripts are created and posted.


Copy-Shape
make your own custom brushes with this great free demo tool from Manuel Zander







freeware

it's the demo version and thus a bit limited in features when compared to the full version but this is so sweet already!



Multi-Print

an intelligent print layout manager
another great utility
by Martin Wright

now it's freeware!







Reverse Animation

made for Project Dogwaffle 2.

GameDev plugins

Gertrudis for
Project Dogwaffle

Turn your photos into masterpieces



affordableware





Note: There is a free SDK (software developer's kit) available here for programmers to enable their own, existing programs to communicate with Project Dogwaffle. If you write programs in MS Visual Basic, all it takes is one line of code and you're "in business", meaning your program is able to connect to the Dogwaffle activeX server and request image data, brushes, animation and much more, and send modified data back. You can then easily focus on your special tools, algorithms and applications to make plugins, filters, import/export modules and more. We have examples written in Delphi, Powerbasic and more.
