Hello everyone! I was bored, so I decided to make DevMarket, where you can find assets to use in games.
What is DevMarket?
DevMarket is a community based resource where you can get Developer Assets easier.
Why DevMarket?
Normally using the toolbox there would be stolen assets and assets with malicious code.
With virus-free assets and pleasing design, you can easily get assets, or place your own assets to make it easier to get! That is exactly what DevMarket has to offer.
How to get DevMarket setup
You need to open the following website in your browser to open DevMarket.
If you wish to install assets directly from Studio, a plugin is coming soon.
The website UI isn’t that great, the domain is an autogenerated Wix domain, and a Roblox plugin is 100% necessary at release if you want people to use this. It’s too much of a hassle to switch to a browser in the middle of development just to find an asset when you can use the Toolbox.
I would not recommend Wix at all, or any website builder for that matter. I would urge you to learn how to create websites with HTML and CSS. Yes its more of a learning curve than a website builder, but you aren’t restricted by a website builder.
Try wordpress, it is completely customizable but easy to learn.
For beginners (you dont have to buy a domain): https://wordpress.com
For more customization (you must own a domain and more difficult to set up) https://wordpress.org
I think that this is a cool idea! Keep up the good work and don’t let anyone discourage you!
All this does is give you virus free assets. Which, as most of you may not know, most viruses were removed in an update a couple months ago. Also, as many others have said, it gets annoying alt-tabbing or pressing F11 every time I need an asset. Also, if you are really careful with viruses, just use a virus scanner.
So this is just the toolbox but even more annoying to use.
I do not mean to sound “know it all” (because I don’t).
This is a genuine question, so please take it as that and not as sarcasm:
How will you achieve to install plugins from within a plugin? This topic has been touched on in the past and I have my own personal interest in it, however, all discussions of this always lead to the answer being “impossible”.
The ability to install assets within the plugin, which is in progress will be everything except for plugins, plugins are a website only feature for DevMarket due to the feature not existing.
DevMarket has 2 ways to install assets. Either through the toolbox or through the plugin. The plugin option gives you a code to paste into a textbox, that will load the asset. Loading assets through the plugin is coming soon, and is not available for plugins or resources.
(Why did you highlight “option” I’m so confused)
By code do you mean name? If it only gives you the name of the plugin it could be dangerous, I recommend instead a link to the appropriate https://roblox.com/ site
