Extensions wishlist

A working version of MultiUploadViaZip that also accepts 7z files.

Not quite the same, but a nice alternative to uploading multiple files without UploadLocal? - Scarred Sun (talk) 07:51, 4 November 2017 (CDT)

It doesn't have the benefit of compression, but could be useful nonetheless. - Hivebrain (talk) 21:56, 4 November 2017 (CDT)

Extension:MultiUpload might work. - Hivebrain (talk) 14:33, 22 November 2019 (EST)

OBJ or some other 3D object viewer (with PNG thumbnails). Maybe 3DAlloy. Something that supports textured models would be better (for example, loading the model and texture files from a single zip file).
Something that can read bytes from uploaded files.
Something that can view the contents of zip/7z files ("ZipHandler").

I'm imagining the file page for a zip contains a list of all its files, each of which has its own file page and can be viewed/downloaded individually (e.g. "File:Zipfile.zip/Anotherfile.bin"). Also thumbnails for contained files ("File:Zipfile.zip/icon.png").

Sync looks like a good way to share templates between wikis. From what I can tell it would only needed to be installed on Retro CDN.
External Data so we can share info stored in Cargo tables.
PSD thumbnails. PSDs contain layer information that gets lost when converted and uploaded as PNGs. Maybe thumbnails for other formats too, such as TIF. PagedTiffHandler would work.
RTF/DOC/DOCX/PPT thumbnails.
Something to bulk copy files from here to Retro CDN (by category for example).
Something to bulk delete pages/files (by category for example). Extension:DeleteBatch might be good if it works on files.
FileImporter and FileExporter
More video formats for TimedMediaHandler: MKV, AVI, FLV etc.
DjVu thumbnails. Apparently possible.

Portable programs needed

Cogwheel
FreezeSMS
PC-Saturn - hidden in 16-bit installer, probably 16-bit itself
Satan - hidden in 16-bit installer, probably 16-bit itself
SSEmu
Yabause (creates files in user AppData folder)

Problem emulators

A-Saturn - needs a BIOS file I can't find
Xe - needs GTK+
Daphne - needs some kind of video files
- Looking up "Daphne for dummies" may be a pleasure
Makaron - seems to require Xbox 360 controller
- To use a keyboard: change "X360PAD.dll" to "MakaronKEY.dll", under "[PortA]" in "Maple.ini"
Gearsystem - missing component
SSE - doesn't detect BIOS
Retrocade - couldn't get it to detect roms
Virtua - uses nonstandard rom set
