Vintage Story loads most of its game content from asset JSONs. Many examples of these can be found inside the <code>assets</code> directory inside your [[Vintagestory folder]]. Things such as blocks, items, world generation, recipes, etc. are all loaded from assets during startup. | |||
== Finding the assets folder == | |||
== | All the functioning assets for Vintage Story are visible in the game's folder, allowing you to peruse them and learn to write your own. You can find these files using the following methods for each type of OS you're running Vintage Story on. If you're looking for source code (ie C# classes) your best option is to dive into the '''[https://github.com/anegostudios Vintage Story Github]''' and peruse the '''vsapi''', '''vssurvivalmod''', '''vsessentialsmod''' and '''vscreativemod''' repositories for class references. | ||
=== Windows === | |||
If you're running Vintage Story on Windows you can navigate to this folder by typing %appdata% in desktop search bar, which will take you to your computer's roaming folder. Find the <code>Vintagestory</code> folder here and you'll immediately come across the assets folder, which contains assets for "creative", "game" and "survival". | |||
* '''creative''' contains assets for creative mode only. | |||
* '''game''' contains many universal assets, such as lang files, the player entity shape, and other essential assets to the game. | |||
* '''survival''' contains the bulk of the actual content most players will come across, and contains all the resources Vintage Story uses, such as textures sounds and world generation. | |||
