== | == Info file == | ||
Every zip-file mod requires a <code>modinfo.json</code> inside the root directory of the archive. Otherwise the entire mod will be ignored. This info file specifies what kind of me it is, its name, author, etc. | |||
== | An example of a theme pack info file (<code>modinfo.json</code>): | ||
<syntaxhighlight lang=json> | |||
{ | |||
"type": "content", | |||
"name": "My Example Content Mod", | |||
"description" : "This is an example mod, which does nothing", | |||
"author": "CreativeMD", | |||
"version": "1.0", | |||
"gameversions": [ "1.5.0.3+" ], | |||
"website": "http://example.com" | |||
} | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
---- | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang=json> | |||
"type": "theme", | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
Defines this mod as being a '''ContentMod'''. Therefore it cannot any scripts or mod classes (it might contain some, but this will be ignored). | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang=json> | |||
"gameversions": [ "1.5.0.3+" ], | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
Means it requires at least VintageStory v1.5.0.3 or a newer version. | |||
== Icon == | |||
The file <code>modicon.png</code> (if it exists) will be used and shown in the mod manager menu. | |||
