It's been a long time since I've used DBP, and I have almost all the plugins for it. I'd like to start using it again, but I've discovered that a lot of the plugins for DBP aren't even supported anymore and commands in them no longer work.

Could I get a list of supported plugins and a list of errata for them? I've found that just because TGC sells them, doesn't mean they're supported or even working %100 which is kind of concerning.

I was going to pick up the enhancement pack and styx as those are the only two plugins I don't own and they both contain some features I'd like. I was advised against it by my friend who said the enhancement pack isn't supported anymore and most of the commands don't work. He told me not to get styx because dark basic pro has anti aliasing built in now.

I'm so out of touch, but I can't find any posts in the forums that discuss this.

Most of STYX functionality is included in IanM's plugins.

His plugins are possibly the most essential plugins there are; I strongly recommend that you download them (and they are free).

Sparky's dll is up to date, but cloggy's d3d plugin is not fully compatible with the latest dbpro. For the cases where cloggy's doesn't work, my Advanced2D plugin covers the 2d commands.

As for paid for plugins, I'm almost certain that all the plugins on this page work:

Just make sure you get the latest version of DBPro.

PS
If you're interested in 2D, I've had very good feedback from my Box2D plugin \/

@Iceman Thanks for the warm welcome Iceman!

@Diggsey I'm way ahead of you Diggsey, I picked up your wonderful plugin 2 days ago. It's what I always wanted in order to do a Scorched Tanks game with cool ballistics physics. I'll download IamM's plugin package now as per your advice.

Currently I own:
Dark AI
Dark Data
Dark Lights
Dark Net
Dark Physics
Dark Shader
Dark Voices
2D Plugin Kit
Box2D
Enhanced Animations
Extends
Texture Max
Unity LUA

I own other odds and ends I've purchased from TGC that I won't bother listing. I'm not OCD or anything.

As we speak, I am adding a list of free plugins to my website which should be published within the hour.
