The 3GX plugin loader will look for plugins in the <tvar="luma_pl_path"><code>luma</code> -> <code>plugins</code></tvar> directory. Each plugin must be inside a folder named with the game's Title ID. Inside the folder, place your <code>.3gx</code> file.
<!--T:24-->
* You can get the game's title ID from [<tvar="3dsdb_cart">http://3dsdb.com/</tvar> here] (cartridges), [<tvar="3dsdb">https://hax0kartik.github.io/3dsdb/</tvar> here] (digital games), or from the <tvar="fbi_tl_path"><code>FBI -> Titles</code></tvar> menu. For example, <tvar="taikoname">Taiko no Tatsujin: Dokodon! Mystery Adventure</tvar>'s title ID is <tvar="taiko_id"><code>0004000000190E00</code></tvar>, so if you wanted to use a plugin for that game, you'd create a folder named <tvar="taiko_id"><code>0004000000190E00</code></tvar>
The 3GX plugin loader will look for plugins in the <tvar name="4"><code>luma</code> -> <code>plugins</code></tvar> directory. Each plugin must be inside a folder named with the game's Title ID. Inside the folder, place your <code>.3gx</code> file.
* 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 <tvar="plugins"><code>plugins</code></tvar> folder
* You can get the game's title ID from [<tvar name="5">http://3dsdb.com/</tvar> here] (cartridges), [<tvar name="6">https://hax0kartik.github.io/3dsdb/</tvar> here] (digital games), or from the <tvar name="7"><code>FBI -> Titles</code></tvar> menu. For example, <tvar name="8">Taiko no Tatsujin: Dokodon! Mystery Adventure</tvar>'s title ID is <tvar name="9"><code>0004000000190E00</code></tvar>, so if you wanted to use a plugin for that game, you'd create a folder named <tvar name="10"><code>0004000000190E00</code></tvar>
* If you want the plugin to run for ''all'' games (for example, for the CTRPluginFramework blank plugin), rename the plugin to <code>default.3gx</code> and just leave it in the <tvar="plugins"><code>plugins</code></tvar> folder
* 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 <tvar name="11"><code>plugins</code></tvar> folder
* If you want the plugin to run for ''all'' games (for example, for the CTRPluginFramework blank plugin), rename the plugin to <code>default.3gx</code> and just leave it in the <tvar name="12"><code>plugins</code></tvar> folder
