Revamp Developer Changes

Developer changes in VJ Base Revamp, version 3.0.0.

Important Notes

  • Most existing VJ_* functions and enums have all been converted to the VJ library!
  • Most CustomOn* functions have been renamed & merged, check below or the corresponding base file for the new names!
  • Many removed/renamed functions and variables have backwards compatibility though it's highly recommended to update them!

New Plugin Loading

Dummy repository Official Addon Example

Plugin autoruns have been completely revamped, here is how to update them:

  1. Create the following directory in your addon's lua folder vj_base/plugins.
  2. Create a lua file inside it with a unique name, example: lua/vj_base/plugins/addon_name.lua.
  3. Navigate to your addon's existing autorun folder.
  4. Copy the actual content excluding VJ Base check, and codes that are included in the old dummy file.
  5. Paste it in lua/vj_base/plugins/addon_name.lua.
  6. At the top of the file add VJ.AddPlugin("", "") where the first string is the addon name and second is the type, example: VJ.AddPlugin("Zombie SNPCs", "NPC").
  7. Go back to the existing autorun file and delete it.
  8. Copy and paste the vj_base_check.lua file found in the dummy repository inside your addon's autorun file just like the dummy repository.
