i m doing something
Hmm
press optional attributes
get a title
and get text and add a description
and draw ground
Then ?
There we go, because why not
So now i take json ? @crimson basin
Thats awesome job
zip archive one
well ye but i tried to stick as close to the origin as i could but really a good contract between plugin newbie, experienced creator and god level
xD
Doesn’t seems to do anything
did it download?
see what downloaded
was it a zip file?
try opening discord attach file buttons and see recent
Congrats
move it in the plugin folder
youre on android right?
Ptag files
TheoTown files are located under such directories:
- Windows: C:\Users\(insert username)\TheoTown or %USERPROFILE%\TheoTown
- Linux: ~/TheoTown
- MacOS: /user/TheoTown
- Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/. Uninstalling the game on Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.
If you cannot access game files through these directories, game has an in-built file manager for mobile devices which is accessible from the region view menu.
You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.
You can use this
Where is the plugin folder
Can i have a picture of it cuz i dont see it
im not on mobile rn
try opening it through the game then
open the game, settings and files
I’ll do it tomorrow
Now you do the 4th
Nah it's not god level
Thanks, my old plugins is very grey and plain, i studied some pixel art so it can be better
No, it is aDutchguy plugin but it became vanilla if im correct
I wanted to add an apple name/ logo there but its definetly not gonna look good/ it wont fit
Whats this building youre making?
Bloody futuristic glass...
bloody? did 6 worker died while trying to assemble the glass
this Gas is sos ksnae
Glassy boi 😂
I don’t see files when going in settings
Are you trying to add a mod over fast?
Yes @kindred tide
Let me read above real fast
You mean to the store? What I'm referring to is adding plugins from the forums and such to use in game? It looks like your trying to actually add a plugin to the store if that's it then I cannot help as I am not experienced in such.
And you may have to wait for bunny.
No what i want is to add my store in the game
Then I cannot help apologies.
I mean the first option that you said
do you have your .zip file?
Yes
youre on mobile right
Ye
Ptag files
TheoTown files are located under such directories:
- Windows: C:\Users\(insert username)\TheoTown or %USERPROFILE%\TheoTown
- Linux: ~/TheoTown
- MacOS: /user/TheoTown
- Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/. Uninstalling the game on Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.
If you cannot access game files through these directories, game has an in-built file manager for mobile devices which is accessible from the region view menu.
You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.
Uhh- i dont think so, your one is already good and honestly i am not that good in this thing rn, i am just making my first plugin
is a picture like this okay?
yeah, need some tree and plants too
show me a screenshot
uh, one single triangle traffic sign is enough i guess, you wont be able to see what the sign it is
Looks good but delete that decal please
Decal?
he made his own plugin and is trying to put it in game. He couldnt find the theotown folder in files and thats where we are at right now
when the uhhhhhhh
did u mean like this??
Japanese railway
looks nice
Nice house
Still lacking a bit of shading but its good
Nice house
Still lacking a bit of shading but its good
Nice house
Still lacking a bit of shading but its good
I'm still in the early stages of learning, so I'll pay attention in the future
Almost stalled
what am i looking at?
plz stop copying me😭😭😭😭😭😭
I believe they're made by EFranz
Ill check it out
I can even sent you a vid (paramètre means settings in french)
god damn are you a youtuber or something
dam, show me ur yt, in dms not here
try opening it in region view
daily logins, upgrading bus stops, levlling up in maps, redeem codes (chrs05), making plugins
check pins
@glass creek thats hard lol
it'll be easy once you get the hang of it
Then ?
it really depends on what youre trying to make..
@rain gate i have to admit that for drawing it’s being easier but to add it in the game 🥲
that's gonna be the hard part for me
@sharp kettle a plugin. An apple store for commercial zones
well first time for everything is definetly not gonna go swimmingly well.
i want to make these commercial pylon signs Ignore the us flag, couldnt find the original image
thanks
Fr
micsosoft edge's image searching browser sucks ass
imagine using microsoft edge
F
So no one can help le right? Do i have to wait for bunny ?
i dunno mane, i gave you the entire direction but you just dont want to read
I saw it but i just don’t understand anything here
Import the zip
This one ?
Yes
Wouldve showed you all of it but my files are private mostly
Then ?
Restart the game
(To find it open manusl build and whichever commercial uou placed it under)
Of course it has to happen
you're probably missing the outer square brackets
He used jas website for this afaik 🤔
What are tjose textures thing
Can u guys speak english ?
We are speaking english
I only use it for Bing AI
Firefox is the way
I mean u guys are saying words that i don’t understand like : tjose, jas, afaik, outer square backets ☠️
tjose is a mispelling for those
jas is "JustAnyone (a person) 's"
afaik stands for as far as i know
jas
outer square brackets is ]
[]
jesus
I really can't help with that
also, where tf did you get that json from
You said outer " ] "
PCA
[ { } ]
ah
ohhh
that ain't pca gal
I did everything in that link
Might be an issue with the website, ill check after i go home
im not testing plugins on mobile
highly unlikely wouldnt it
just write it yourself
lmao
it's shrimple
Maybe i should use this innit ?
Whats the difference lol
Isnt that the same thing twice?
I think it is
it's pretty shrimple, trust me
Wrong
Okayyy guess i dont have to test then
But like isn’t there a difference with apple store.zip ?
No
Ok 🥲
you downloaded the same thing twice
send me the zip in dms
ill see it after i get home in like 2 hours
Twice or 3 times ?
Twice
There is plugin-1.zip, plugin.zip and apple store.zip it’s 3
You downloaded the same thing 3 times
When you export a plugin through PCA, it should have familiar file structure inside:
the comrade pickle is the texture image
I mean it hasn’t putted me an error message
Mmm wait
Like this ?
petition to create basic tutorials for file structure format on forum
yes
correct
There are basic tutorials for writing JSON.
Will remove live preview from PCA as that will be abstracted.
@marble pelican Follow these process, but instead clicking on "File", click on "Folder"
These 3 files should be on the same folder, find that name of the folder
Import that folder (your plugin) into the game
hold it
Still not doing anything
WHY AM I GETTING EVERY SINGLE POSSIBLE PROBLEMS can’t it just works at first try like eveyone
I rarely get stuff done at first try even tho I'm only using the simplest codes
Are you trying to install plugins? (That aren't from the plugin store)
A bit of patience my friend all gonna work
hes making his own plugins
I m trying to publish a plugin
Ok
At which step you found trouble with
you assume it works first try for everyone, it rarely does 😭
Put your code and plugin PNG on a separate file select it then "compress"
@misty pawn how'd you get plugin creator role?
Email them
its pinned somewhere, i think #information
Become a plugin creator
took me days to succesfully make a plugin and import it ingame
how
nvm, i dont need it anyway
Pain and suffering with pixes
@marble pelican with all of my respect, I hope for the best on your way of becoming a plugin creator/ pixel artist
become a plugin 👍
That's even more deep
Sir how to become plugin?
Thx
yeah but how
Bruh
sameee
whats the problem rn?
At first I was just copy pasting codes shiish
thats the answer i dont have for you, youll have to climb the highest mountain, walk the hottest desert, and sail the craziest storm to find such a answer
When i think in means that the drawing is 3× easier than simply publish 😭
i was doing that and still having errors
I m trying to selct the zip files but it’s not reacting
oh yeah lemme watch the video
I tried to tap and hold but it’s not doing anything
did you do it like i showed you?
Yes i finished what u showed me
Now i m trying to add a zip file from "folder" as lakan haraya said
I mean
yes
This
What unzipped means ?
try restarting the app and see if that helps
I already tried
Anyways i m gonna continue my quest tomorrow i have to sleep 😴
just finished doing a small bus update
Bussssss
what about bikelanes
pls add big interchange generator 2.35
he prolly too lazy to do that lol
nah I understand it
what about kanji markings on the road?
Amazing
Will do
In a near future
As of right now I'm just going to slowly introduce updates, and hopefully one day it will actually be worth 100 diamonds 🫶
I have no actual reason tbf
But I think with small updates ie adding more content while keeping the same price tag could be a bargain
plugin creator moment
Need to feed my citizens 🙄🙄
I also occasionally play on mobile
can someone help me whats happening here?
could just be a typo
where?
[ { "id": "$Me.Sign.00$", "type": "decoration", "title": "sign", "width": 1, "height": 1, "build time": 1, "draw ground": true, "supports terrain": true, "needs land": false, "frames": [ { "bmp": "sign1.png", "h": 29, "w": 32, "count": 14 } ] }, { "id": "$Me.Sign.01$", "type": "decoration", "title": "sign", "width": 1, "height": 1, "build time": 1, "draw ground": true, "supports terrain": true, "needs land": false, "frames": [ { "bmp": "sign2.png", "h": 29, "w": 32, "count": 14 } ] }, ]

no I mean
it's already in the store
and I want to download it as a zip again
is it possible
well that sucks
stfu you do it
nah
I did lol for my scaffolding
crazy
wow
would like to see you do that again but with the burj khalifa plugin by vonark
yeah
press the left most button, it downloads as a zip and you can see all your contents
have you ever tried doing it on the store?
this is extracted cause i wanted to work on it but its like this when you download from there
no button
Turn it horizontal
Huh really?
i cant see it vertically but i can horizontally
I can see it on desktop mode too
am i not supposed to be able to see it lol
nah, its just for my own plugins
you can ask any forum admin or plugin moderator for the zip file though
im sure theyll be happy to help ya
alright, thanks
Yes i did it
is there an error?
Nope 🙂
feel free to dm me and I can get it for you
can i get one of mine?
i wanna update it ngl
maybe
pls?
behold
hot
Plz add night animation, rotation, rotation awareness, and snow frame. Please! I'm begging you
night animation???
Where night 😡
No night = bad plugins (according to the comments)
I hope it works 🙏
my eyeeees
You mean what i want to make ?
I think a TT is the best option
which level did you put when you used the website
1, 2 or 3
can you send me the zip in dms?
i can check for you
huh interesting
it isnt in the json
try skimming through manual build
check commercial sections
its likely in poor
apparently its an optional attribute
The problem if it’s in T it always gonna despawn
not if you place it manually
yeah thats what manual build is for
WAIT IT’S ALREADY ADDED INTO THE GAME ???😃
ye
It’s in the plugin store ?
Aaaaaaaarg 😭 this never ends
In my opinion, I think it has low chances to be accepted in the store
t-72/t-90 chassis
"Chances are low, but not 0"
nah, your next road block is waiting a week for a plugin mod to reveiw it
I lost track
he just gotta hope for commander
then the approver is under the infulence of something'
Looks underground a little bit isn’t ?
infulence 👀
lol whatcha do xD
half of the building is underground so i wouldnt call that a little bit..
It spawned like this
Good good 👍👍👍👍 - the comments
thanks
@crimson basin
its a 1x1 so 32 for width
drawing frames for a terrain plugin is actually giving me mental breakdown
I don’t understand 😅
We can do updates for plugins so i should be able fix it right ?
@crimson basin yes plsssssssssssss
how bout i fix it?
ive done some coding before
or whatever it is u need help with
as long as it isnt lua
its not even the coding, its the image thats the problem
ill be done in like 15 to 45 mintes
the building sinking?
I think it’s better to let bunny do it she was helping me during all this time she probably more knows the file than me lol
it'll take less than a minute to fix that if its just cropping
Uh ok then
he's a plugin creator
IM a plugin creator
bunny is a girl btw
im referring to you
ah
your context is wrong lol
never was chipper implied in that
ok
hot
nice
Problem fixed
hmm
Next up is gonna be a 4×4 burger king (far to be finished yet)
use the same colours i did for the windows
Ok i’ll try 👌🏽
also check pins for tips
Okay
Is there only one perfect sentence here ?
how do you even make that without making your brain hurt
I though it was asking for what this website was here but no it means of what its about lol
Do i just wait now ?
pretty much, just check every couple of days
btw
I can check in the game or i m forced to check on the website ?
as a preview, you have to upload a picture of what it looks like in game
website
So the picture right here is wrong ?
you can see if its accepted in #plugin-showcase or in game but if its rejected it will only appear on the website for you
yeah, pick a picture which shows what it looks like in the game
Alright i do this
Done
HAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣
guys are there any plugins that add other sides of the vanilla buildings?
Kulche plugins
cheers
45 crystals
lol rip
Yes all you do is wait
Complaining will not cause change in approval time
Are you kidding me? 45 diamonds...
Definitely worth it

Because plugin is awesome
Looks awesome for European and Asian cities
OH WAIT I M GONNA CHANGE IT FAST XD i though it was pieces
No no he just kidding. 45 diamonds is normally
it got dissaproved??
Yes it was kinda logic to be honest
Yes i’ll do that another time
if mine got disapproved i would cry
what is your submission
but if my year/years of hard work all by myself got disapproved, i would just be sad
a japanese train pack
plus
buses
plus
trams
and everything else i can find about these three in japan
basically probably 1k amount of content in one
mega pack?
mmm not really
since it's prefecture is a mega pack itself
n since JRG has a massive influence on japan, that might just be a mega pack itself
including every station in hokkaido owned by JRG
or has lines from JRG
demotivated
i got like 2
one is for the philippines
and one is for every single country in europe
every single train, tram, bus company in every single region/state in every single country
all gonna be done by me only 🥹
country side expansion
World War2 pack
Vanilla props V2
and the other one is probably gonna be private
mine is gonna be published
but probably cost higher cos i wasted like 1 or 2 years working on this
by myself
yes i am very motivated
good for you
huh?
yeah i can't balance my motivation for one thing and another
I m doing a burgerking tell me what it’s missing pls
On the roof ?
What's the application called
Pixel studio
Ok thx
Thanks man
Np :]
i kinda like it
looks like brain hurt
crab
Crap
no
looks like what you have in brain when you hit a nerve
I'm kidding, your tanks/cars are awesome. But i still hate any wars
indeed
mine is gonna be worse since im gonna be making a bullet train
idk how it fits on tank's muzzle
i will do taht
it will
bullet train should be small enough
yeah but the head of the bullet train is when my brain starts asking why
your shadows are one pixel too long
Oh nice it's better than your apple station
Apple station
heres what i think needs work on
how long did this take you to draw lol
Ok thank u 😂
@lyric depot @echo moon are you both guys ok in #plugin-suggestions
probably not lol
Yes
Too bad I saw you reacted to all those emojis
I added a guy that is fixing the air conditioner and some textures to the roof and the left wall
And i also did some tips that bunny said
Okay
what shall i search for then
probably longer than it wouldve taken me to actually fix it lol
duh
🤷♀️
That's one tall person, usually it's 3 pixels
Yeah, just trying to prove a point.
It’s a yellow worker hat
"A point" lmao
4 is fine i would say
all of the soldiers in the parade update is 4 pxs tall
This
ye we can all see that
oh i thought it was a reallly tall person
Usally it's supposed to look like this
Make the head yellow instead
atleast we can tell that your hats are hats
you can do 4
no one will notice
or is it
That one pedestrian with a red pixel on his head
Nice wall
thanks
eh i thought they were wearing those same hats as the royal british gaurds
yes they will, those hats arent that tall
i usually see my soldiers and thought they are just 3pxs tall lol
yeah cause they are soldiers
that hat has the same size of the construction hat
Fr
yes.
I said it’s a worker hat
Dude that hat isnt making people longer
💀 she did a whole another plugin with this explanation
You could make the person 4x if he has this hat
Wr need diagonal peiple
Peiple
wi nid digonol pople
Yu nid dioginal piple
stop speaking chinese
No ı wönt
Ио нe woи'т
Bruuuuh how is it possible to fail a plugin so hard ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
I m gonna cry 💀
Cool
How is this cool lol
Not that
Oooh ok i see
Ye i improved it even more but i’ll show it when i fix this weird problem
Save it in ×1
Needs to be blur
you either messed uo the image, the code or both
Sorry, I didn’t mean to throw the US flag at your post, I accidentally, I just wanted to throw my flag, but I threw the USA, I wanted to ask if the Ukrainian army will be in your wonderful fashion?? I am very pleased that you have the Ukrainian army and equipment in your plans, if only equipment, then I will be glad if you think about Infantry, thank you)))
Sorry for asking, but when will the next update of your plugin be?
@lapis crystal i have revoke your timeout
yes ukraninan army will be in tlmep
im doing russian equipments as well as eastern europe and other countries too since they also use soviet/russia equipment
I am Ukrainian myself, from Kiev.. in my country, you know that, and love for the country wants more and more, I would like to throw the flag of Ukraine so that you can see that you are not only with Russia and with Asian views, but and with Ukraine
i see
Ukraine also uses Soviet tanks and even weapons, so it turns out that you will make a separate fashion in Ukraine? or I misunderstood you
i dont know wdym but i will also make ukranian military equipment too
Thank you for your answer) I’m very pleased, I also want to create a server in discord about this game, but I don’t know if it will be successful
well you have to figure out what will you post on your server first so
I will be glad if there is still an army))) can I ask you?? how did you develop your server?
If this is going to turn into a conversation about server creation I suggest you all use DMs
ok, I won't thank you for your support, thank you very much)
can we continue in LPC
no no, thank you, I won’t bother you for your attention, good luck to you and good luck in developing fashion) I’m glad you answered
thanks
Fr 💀
Is all of these reactions really necessary...
no
Should I release my scaffolding plugin or keep it for me?
ig release
Release is cross, Keep it for myself is M
Release 
@lyric depot
Yes, I'm proving a point.
its a suggestion-
not a political debate
What
youre really not helping anything
and as youve been told before
plugin creators just create whatever they want
its rarely ever from #plugin-suggestions
but if you want it o be made, i dont think all those reactions are helping your case
Still won't stop me, I'm not trying to help anyone, just trying to prove a point.
if you say so
what? i have not a single clue what you are talking about
i have a motel plugin in the making too that i haven't made progress for lol
ive been trying to draw some terrain plugin for the past 8 days, i havent made a single progress even tho i really need it for my city
Lolll i am remembering your motel plugin, what happened to that
i think you know the answer
procrastination
Uhh guys i want to try my plugin but i cant see it in the game, is the file correct ?
show the code
well did it crash>>
No
Residential
Shıt, i forgot adding the residential level
Imma change the colors tomorrow
Oh come on why do every chat die when i post something lmao
Wow die
i think this server hates me
fr x2
but ye i will to change the colors
It looks like a leopard rn
will probably change the era colors
i went to get food.
cool
If i dont add the resideantial level, its not poping up in anywere right ?
wtf is your png lmao
is it a whole screenshot?
Lmao how can you screw it up so bad
he had the 381x381 template
lol what
This guy reminds me of 2017 theotown
No it’s normal i even cropped
why is it so big
"normal"
man, you really have never used a computer before did you
Idk it’s just a 4×4
IT IS
bunny that image is 1800 pixels wide
it is not
im sure 1000%
imagine arguing with experienced plugin creators when you clearly can't even create a png with the proper size
download a template from the pins and use that
this is a 4x4
lol my chrome opened it as (950x573)
this is not a 4x4 anymore
yeah its like 10 times the actual size
did you like enlarge it after you were done??
I KNOW
stop with the caps
It’s cuz i saved it with 4× 🤣
what do you mean 4x
I though it was to crop but it’s to make it bigger
its atleast 10 times the size
Basicaly my drawing but 4× times bigger
disagree that its only 4 times bigger
how could one mess up this bad ;-;
when kids try plugin creation
the solution is as simple as resizing the image to 64x39
prefereably using nearest neighbour or anisotropic
those are options?
?
i didnt know that was even a possible option
Okay my plugins are bad because I'm kid
no
Who made pipes and props plugin?
by 'kid' I don't mean anything below 18 years of age
theres kids who makes great plugins
also, nobody said your plugins are bad??
and like do great stuff in general
never heard of image scaling modes?
cringe
but then theres kids who havent reached that maturity yet and just wants the free diamonds
yes 🥺
Bruh I still can't access plugins😭
?
"access"??
Need vpn
That'll do it
ah
what plugin needs a vpn??
evan when plugin update :>
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Dangerous to use vpn
The plugin store in some countries
"Dangerous"
then that's your country's issue
Might get jailed
Fr
Specifically in some Middle Eastern ones
nothing we can do about it
Do my plugins need updated?
download forum plugins and join servers where creators share their own plugin files
I think there's more to the solar system than earth orbit and middle east
No, im just joking, you just seem to be here around a lot and not actually working on anything. Your stuff are still great :>
Ah I've moved on to graphics for other games
hows this for a rock texture?
Ohhh
The comments on our dear platform are quite annoying
That is good idea
looks good
yeahhhh, should see some of the comments on some of the plugins lobby released
thats the base, ill add more shadows and lights to it
and it doesnt have a built in comment translator
really dont like drawing terrain
yeah lol
so i end up ignoring them
@crimson basin i need ur help
@marble pelican save it in ×1
what did you do now
;)
then get a better one
Wdym
lol
it's that shrimple
Just save on ×1 bruh
apparently its mobile
It’s vague
so glad i got pc to draw plugins now
and you know how mobile apps are kulche
fr I had the same problem as you at the beginning, everyone told me to crop or do stuff like that, when the only problem was just saving in ×1
If i save it on 1× it’s super vague
?
so that the pixels are smaller
But if i do it on 2× it’s too big
yeah
So 1×
do it on 1
I DID IT ON 1 AND LOOK THE RESULT
Caps.
I told you to caps off
evan lurking
It's my job
pixly isnt avaible for you or somethin?
what happened when you did on 1
wtf my github doesn't start
it's quite funny that I'm a pixeltudio user and by chance I'm the only one to find the solution
its suppised to be small and pixel like
that "quitting might break your installation" didn't lie
update????
well then update
idk
man this-
Anyone knows Player_no_zero?
It also says on the app that making it 1× will make it blurry like that so it’s not my fault
because you probably downscaled the upscaled version with an inappropriate scaling mode
like bicubic
💀
Thats real classic fr
Yes
Do it
He's around still, why do you ask?
press the undo button if there is one
On the app ?
yes
anyway whatever application you use you have to save the blurred images for it to work in Theotown
you are not helping
not blurred
I don't get it
Some autorisations
Fr
then don't interject
you get your apple store to work
how did you mess up this time??
the process is quite literally the same
Lmao fr
that's exactly what I'd prefer you to do
🥸
You are a good guy bye
