MFC Chroma Editor
[CChromaEditor] is a work in progress to pack the functionality of [UE4ChromaSDK] and [UnityChromaSDK] into a Windows DLL.
[GameMakerChromaExtension] uses a GameMaker extension to load the embedded MFC DLL.
[ConsoleChromaEditor] is a C# Console app for testing the embedded MFC DLL.

Add Chroma Animation Assets to Unity
Time to port the animation assets from UE4 to Unity [UnityChromaSwagger].
Once it works, I’ll push to [UnityChromaSDK].

[Discord Developers Introduction]
[GameBridge] is an SDK to detect Discord to access all the user features of Discord.
Discord runs an [RPC] server on localhost that controls Discord clients.
[Sample Game Integration] is an example using Discord’s API and local RPC socket to add Voice and Text chat to an instance or match based multiplayer game.
There is also an [active unofficial community-driven Discord Server for devs].
Control your LEDs with your TV remote?! || Arduino IR Tutorial
I created a [XamarinFormsIoT] Windows Core IoT project which can control LEDs and play sounds on a Raspberry PI 3. I used a portable dependency interface to expose the GPIO controller which only exists in the UWP project. GPIO is used to control the LEDs. I also ordered an IR receiver so I can detect IR signals from a remote and it works!
Next I need to [find] a UWP library for LIRC.
The [Arduino-IRremote] has a C++ library that can be converted to UWP.
I followed the idea from the video below.

Unity Images
Unity has an issue with Texture2D and GetPixels at various sizes. So I’ve created a native plugin [UnityImageNativePlugin] to handle loading BMP, GIF, JPG, and PNG image types.

UE4 Plugin for Chroma
This week, I’m wrapping up a UE4 plugin for Chroma [UE4ChromaSDK].
Next step, I’ll be making a [Custom Asset Type] on [tgraupmann].
The ForceFeedbackEffect has a hover animation that when clicked plays the animation which is what I want to do for Chroma. “Play selected force feedback effect” from
[AssetTypeActions_ForceFeedbackEffect.h]
[AssetTypeActions_ForceFeedbackEffect.cpp]
Works!
Next step customizing the details window.
So you'll want to create an IDetailCustomization-derived class and implement that interface and register/unregister it in your plugin module's startup/shutdown logic As for how to implement that interface, lot of stuff to cover there. You'll implement CustomizeDetails, which has a IDetailLayoutBuilder parameter.
Example: [LocalizationDashboard]
Go to Editor Preferences, all settings, search "Localization Dashboard" and check the box. Then go to Window -> Localization Dashboard (under Experimental), from the top-level menus.
