Packaging your addon for release.

When you have finished developing your addon, you may wish to release it to the public. Here are some tips on how to do that.

Notice

When the Mod Updater is finished, the way you have to package your addon may change.
This page will be updated when that happens.

Packaging your addon

When releasing your addon on GitHub, or sharing it to friends, you should package it as a .zip file in the following structure:

MyAddon.zip
├── addons
│   └── myaddon.dll
└── Languages
    └── MyAddon
        └── lang_English.yaml

This allows users to simply extract the contents of the zip into their Among Us installation folder, without any extra work.

”My addon doesn’t include a Languages folder, what do I do?”

Your addon will only include a languages folder if you make use of the VentFramework Localizer. Don’t worry if you don’t have one, it’s not required to have one.

If you want to make use of the Localizer, you can check out the VentFramework documentation on how to do so here.
