Title: Help Pleeeease! What do i need to publish a mod?
Post by: Quasarrgames on April 27, 2014, 01:15:55 PM
I have a mod. It's almost finished. It adds a few more guns into the game. I was thinking of releasing it. I'm just wondering what i need to publish it. Do i need a source code or a change log or some type of accreditation or something, or can i just compress the file and put a download link through google drive, and post it in here along with a little description?

THANKS A BUNCH! :)

change logs, source code is fun but not required,(if u only add xml files people should be able to read them, if they can read of course)
However the download link is (This makes no sense at all :P )

Just test it to make sure it works, zip it up, and post us a link :D If the mod is small enough when zipped, you may find that you can upload it to the forums, in which case you will be able to see how many people have downloaded your mod at any one time too :P

This is the best answer some one could give, but if your mod is too big for ludeon and you have to use an external upload site like mediafire for example, then go onto bit.ly and paste your link there it will give you a new link that you post here as the link this way you can still see how many downloads you have had, and which parts of the world are playing it :)
