| NTR will look for plugins in the <code>plugin</code> folder on the root of your SD card. Each plugin must be inside a folder named with a game's [[3DS:Title ID|Title ID]]. Inside the folder, put your .plg file | | If you're using the default configuration, NTR will look for plugins in the <code>plugin</code> folder on the root of your SD card. Each plugin must be inside a folder named with a game's Title ID. Inside the folder, place your .plg file. |
| | * You can get the game's title ID from [http://3dsdb.com/ here] (cartridges), [https://hax0kartik.github.io/3dsdb/ here] (digital games), or from the <code>FBI -> Titles</code> menu. For example, Taiko no Tatsujin: Dokodon! Mystery Adventure's title ID is <code>0004000000190E00</code>, so if you wanted to use a plugin for that game, you'd create a folder named <code>0004000000190E00</code> |
| | * The creator of the plugin may have already created a folder with the correct name for you, in which case you can just copy the title ID folder from the plugin's zip/rar/7z archive to the <code>plugin</code> folder |
| | * If you want the plugin to run for ''all'' games (for example, for an FPS overlay), create a folder called <code>game</code> inside the <code>plugin</code> folder and place your plugin inside |
|
| |
|
| For example, the path may look like <code>plugin</code> -> <code>00040000001B5000</code> -> <code>plugin.plg</code>
| | An example directory for a plugin affecting one game would be <code>plugin</code> -> <code>0004000000190E00</code> -> <code>plugin.plg</code>. |
| | |
| | An example directory for a plugin affecting all games would be <code>plugin</code> -> <code>game</code> -> <code>plugin.plg</code>. |
