want to get a large collection of minis you have to go hunting one by one. solution, a content developer can create a pack that includes multiple Taleweaver minis at

once allowing the user to download more assets quicker.

Usage

User of this plugin don't need to do anything if the auto sync feature is turned on (which is the default). With this

feature on, when a board is loaded the plugin does a sync and copies all downloaded Taleweaver mods to

the Local Content Packs folder making the assets available in the Local section of the Creature library.

If additional mods are downloaded during the session, the sync can be triggered manually to add the new minis even

while Talespire is running.

`Home` = Sync the Local Content Packs folder with downloaded Taleweaver mods.

How To Make A Compatible Packs

Create a zip file that has the usual 4 files: icon.png, LICENSE.txt, manifest.json, README.md. Then create a `plugins`

folder and create a `CustomData` folder in that folder. Place the tsMod files into that folder or some sub-hierarchy

of the folder. Do NOT zip the tsMod files. For example, a pack structure might look like:

icon.png

LICENSE.txt

manifest.json

README.md

plugins\CustomData\Bandits\bandit1.tsmod

plugins\CustomData\Bandits\bandit2.tsmod

plugins\CustomData\Bandits\bandit3.tsmod

plugins\CustomData\Thieves\thief1.tsmod

plugins\CustomData\Thieves\thief2.tsmod

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
