Uploading Games

What is the User Box?
The user box is a system to collectively manage frequently used material on the site.

Usually, you need to bundle files of images and music materials in the game data.
Prviously, If you want to use the same material in other games, you have to prepare duplicate game data.

So PLiCy made a UserBox.
In UserBox, you can keep all shared game material on the server, and then it is applied to other games automatically.

By uploading files to UserBox on Profile in MyPage, you can use the materials in different games.
With UserBox you can simplify your work of putting the same files in the game.
It is also possible to use RTP as a UserBox file.


Please put the materials in the appropriate folders based on each tool.
If you're not sure how to do this, you can put a file in the relevant part of the sample folders below.
(2015/01/17 update RPG Maker VXAce / pli-log / GameDesignerAction added)
UserBox file composition

Users who have not setup the UserBox can still enjoy playing games.
I want to remove a copyrighted work that has been uploaded without permission.
Your copyrighted material can be deleted by reporting to:
Game play screen>Report Copyright> [Copyright Infringement].
Is it OK to upload an unencrypted zip file?

Will my game be reviewed when it is published?

PLiCy is not a video sharing site, and at the moment cannot support HD video.

PLiCy can process midi files, but occasionally these may loop at a strange place.
