Avalon is an official front end for GemStone IV, for use with Mac OS X. Though it does not a point-and-click interface, it provides direct compatibility with user-developed plugins. In versions newer than and including 4.2.2, Avalon has a built-in script engine that can run scripts written with the Wizard or StormFront formats. Avalon is available for download at: https://www.play.net/gs4/play/avalon-info.asp
Unique Features
Avalon can process either the XML feed or the 'Wizard' feed from simutronics. Currently this would not result in a pleasant user experience, but a plugin could be written to process the extra information and display it properly.
Plugins
- YASSE - the original scripting plugin. Also provides a lot of built-in support for DragonRealms
- YASSE lite - a stripped down version of the original YASSE, just the scripting engine with the other features removed
- Avalon Oxide - a GemStone-specific plugin that provides a window for a cleaner viewing of status information (HP, mana, spirit, stance, directions, etc)
All of these plugins are open source, and licensed under the GPL.
Bugs
- Health and scar info that is sent to plugins is not properly formatted (keys/values don't make sense)
- Sounds may not work in DR
