I think there are many people capable of creating commercial quality plugins for Shiva on these boards. So I'm going to post a list of plugins I'd be very interested to use if someone was kind enough to make them.
I hope that as you're reading this, you can do the same and then maybe we can compile a top 20 most wanted Shiva Plugins:-
To get the ball rolling - these are my 4 major requests (couldn't think of a fifth at the moment):-
1. in-app purchases
A plugin to enable and possibly standardise in-app purchases for all mobile/phone platforms. In app purchases are (possibly) the future of monetising free apps: ( http://www.next-gen.biz/news/in-game-app-purchases-to-hit-11-billion-by-2015 - bit of an exaggeration I think...but interesting) (Perhaps this doesn't need to be a plugin or could be integrated into the Shiva/Server system, my question is, if this isn't an urgent feature for everyone, is it possible to do this right now with Shiva?)
2. Support for Admobile plus others
3. Openfeint support
4. Support for iOS Gamecentre and Googles up-and-coming social network equivalent "Google Me" for android 2.3. http://androidandme.com/2010/11/news/12-gingerbread-android-2-3-features-that-andy-rubin-might-announce-on-december-6th/
PS: A dedicated "Plugins - Development/WIP/Final" forum sections would be nice too.
Thanks for listening.

1. Standardized inapp purchases don't exist and never will because the iOS StoreKit is iOS only and the only option to do any selling on iOS (anything else will get automatically rejected).
As such: standardization impossible, forever

Ok, I revise my first request to multiple plugins that implement the iOS storekit, plus seperate plugins for making in-app purchases possible on android, palm and whatever else appears.
Unless its somehow possible already...

Personally I think a Box2D plug-in would just be awesome, not hard to write and really useful for many users.

2d sub-engine for "only" 2d games with box2d
and advanced AppLoader with posibility to add .stk files into .app files,
so it will be possible to test compiled from xcode proj file, not only stk without game
center, connected files with using xCode's "Resources" folder etc...
just thoughts : )

Why don't you build the ShiVa app loader with your xcode project? You'll then be able to load any stk in your development environment (game center, etc.)?
