Those plugins no longer exist and are no longer used by PS as a result.

A note of caution here

Click on this link to a page on the main PlaneShift website:

http://www.planeshift.it/pslicense.html

Here is an extract from that page:

Brief Explanation of the licenses

Read this paragraph if you want to have a quick overview of the licensing used by PlaneShift.

For players:

The first goal of our team is to make a free game for players. This means you will not have to pay for the game, nor pay a monthly cost. You can install our software on many PC as you like, play it as much as you want.

You cannot distribute the client, sell it or gain any profit from it.

You can use our client only to connect to Official Servers.

For developers:

Code is under GPL license, this means you can get all our source code, study it and reuse it as soon as you keep it open and give back to us your changes.

All artwork, musics, dialogues, stories, names, 3d models, etc... are under a proprietary license. This means you cannot reuse those in any way. If you plan to create another game based on our source code, remember you will have to redo all art,music,models,stories,etc...

You cannot host another server where PlaneShift Clients connects to, because our license on assets forbids it.

A detailed explanation of the licenses follows.

I suspect that if Simagel were to distribute a copy of his compile of 0.3.017 PS Client for Mac OS X to you Skooty or to anyone else, his actions would be in violation of the license for PlaneShift.

[Xordan]

That's rubbish. He can distribute the compiled source to whoever he likes. Putting it in an installer with the art without our permission would probably breach the license, but he doesn't need to do that.

Ah.. okay, thankyou for the clarification on this Xordan

[Simagel]

Those plugins no longer exist and are no longer used by PS as a result.

hmmm if they do no longer exist why are they included in the pc-binary? Like rain.dll or rainldr.dll or partphysis_simple.dll 

[sun_and_moon]

does that mean there's no more weather system? :O

[Skooty]

Well then Sim can you send it to me since its conisedered legal?

[Xordan]

The particle system was changed recently and rain/snow/fire etc. is all done in a different particles plugin. Talad probably forgot to remove those old dll's from the windows installer.

[Skooty]

can ANYONE sned me a compiled Ver.

Hmmm, I think patience is the word here. Like most of you, it is killing me waiting for an official release (I am checking the sticky five times a day now  ), but there are obviously issues with the mac client and dfryer wants it to be as perfect as possible before releasing. I congratulate those whom are able to compile their own version, I wouldn't know where to begin, but surely these versions will contain the very bugs dfryer is trying to stomp out. If too many buggy versions are in the public realm, it will not only spoil gameplay for those users, but for everyone who interacts with them in game.

Please be patient.

A very, very big thanks to dfryer for all the hard work (and do you think you could get a bl**dy move on  )

Thank you for the post thats exactly my opinion (about releasing a buggy client) i talked to dfryer on irc there are defenitly some issues with the current release and dfryer is trying to resolve them so be patient till the release. I know its hard but if you realy want to play, compile it yourself, it is not that hard and you can find help on irc. At the moment i am testing if i have the same buggs as dfryer, if not i think we will find a solution fast.

Sorry for this bad news for all who are waiting, but releasing a buggy client is surely not a solution.

My Head exploded a week ago. All thats left is a tiny little ringing sound.

Why do I get the feeling this is going to end up being a Christmas gift to us?
