I’m trying to deploy an xbox360 plugin to my computer (forum:xbox-controller-plugin-help-request) This plugin is a folder and .cs project. I’ve gotton other plugin samples to work which had a help.vp4 by opening that file and copy and pasting until somehow my patch magically worked.
The first topic on the plugin page is to develop a plugin, i think i’ve missed the boat on what a plugin actually is and how it’s referenced on my system.
I’m of the mind set that i could place it in the vvvv/plugins folder in its entirety and it would show up on my nodesearch?
don’t touch the \plugins or \addonpack\plugins directory. when you get plugins from the forum or the contributions put them in your own \contributions directory.
i have mine on the desktop, like:
\contributions
\plugins
\modules
\effects
and i put downloads in the respective subdirectories. then the only thing you need to do is add a reference to the \contributions directory to the search path in the root. here is how thats done: nodes and paths.
is it mandatory to have that subdirectories as you described? I have got everything only in one Folder called “_addons” and a lot of things in there don’t appear in the nodelist…
