This guide on how to mod weapons and items in Mini World: Block Art aims to enhance your gameplay by letting you modify the items and resources in the game.

Updates for 2021

Note: Do not edit the Plugin Pack inside the Plugin Pack editor, as this could result in it disappearing from your current Plugin Packs.

Important: This version (0.30.x) may also delete all installed Plugin Packs. It is advisable to move Plugin Packs to the world where you want to use them.

Requirements

Minimum Requirements for Modding
Requirement Windows Android
Text Editor Visual Studio Code or Notepad++ DroidEdit or Quoda
File Explorer Not Applicable ES File Explorer

Getting Started

To create a mod, start by making the following folder structure:

/ -- my_first_plugin_pack (your folder/pack name)
    | -- behavior (behavior plugin, how the game is interpreted)
        | -- actor (monsters/animals plugins)
        | -- block (blocks plugins)
        | -- item (items plugins)
        | -- receipe (non specified)
        | -- crafting (craft plugins)
    | -- resource (resources folder, it's useless at the moment)
        | -- models (.obj models)
        | -- shader (shaders, no file extension found)
        | -- sounds (.ogg sounds)
        | -- textures (.png images)
            | -- block (textures for blocks)
            | -- entity (textures for entities)
    | -- icon.png (the plugin icon, shown in Plugin Library)
    | -- pack_manifest.json (the file that handles the metadata)
    

This is the necessary folder structure. Remember not to change the order of folders, or the pack may not function properly.

pack_manifest.json and its Components

Add the following structure to your pack_manifest.json file:

{
    "name": "My First Plugin Pack",
    "en_name": "My First Plugin Pack",
    "description": "Hello World!",
    "author": "Your Name Here",
    "pack_version": "0.6",
    "api_version": "0.14.0",
    "mod_type": 0,  // 0 for Plugin Pack
    "uuid": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
}
    

This structure handles all the metadata for your pack. Replace 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' with your own UUID generated from Online UUID Generator.

Testing Your Plugin Pack

To use your Plugin Pack, transfer the Plugin Pack folder to your mods directory:

  • Windows: Press Win + R, input %appdata%, navigate to the folder miniworlddata410/data/mods
  • Android: Open File Explorer > search for miniplay/com.playmini.miniworld/data/mods

Congratulations on creating your first Plugin Pack! Start creating plugins to enhance your game.

Basic Plugin Pack Template

The MWH.json Plugin Pack template is available on GitHub for you to start working with your own packs. Instructions can be found in the README.md file.
