This has broken literally all my plugins. The plugins don’t even load, and I can’t even reinstall them. Tried reinstalling Studio, turned off all Beta features, logging out and in, and removing every plugin and adding it again. Even local plugins don’t load.
Still waiting for public access to sell, I’m working on a plugin that will add an advanced TPS and FPS gun system!
This is neat. Far better than it was before.
I see a lot of comments about “trust issues” and such. While those concerns are warranted, they’re not exactly realistic as one might expect. In fact, the platform you use (Roblox) is not open source yet, you download it.
For plugins, the same concept applies. Research before you download. If you absolutely need it, bite the bullet and see what happens.
Amazing, this shall definitely help me out while I am working on games.
Looking forward to this being opened to other devs.
I am an ex back end web dev (career/actual job) and looking to release some cool stuff I have been making in roblox.
How can I began to sell my new plugin?
Make sure to read the OP before asking these kind of questions.
Its been a long time though and nothing came out.
Should do the same with models but I’m glad this is a feature.
That sounds good, but has anything come out yet? Stealing plugins and reselling them is not a very nice thing to do, but many people do it to get a plugin because they don’t have Robux to get a plugin, but they want one anyway. So maybe there is already something here to control if a user has bought a plugin or not? With this we could use the HTTPS service thanks to (for example) a private Github Pages webapp. With this we could secure our plugins more. So maybe there is something better or is it still W.I.P?
Any update on the allowing select people be able to sell plugins? I have a plugin coming out extremely soon that I’d like to sell.
you can add a script that check if plugin is updated to the lastest version and if it’s not then block it from using it, so if you regulary update your plugins then re-uploaded plugins will not work
Yeah, but if they install the plugin then they just can copy EVERYTHING, even the scripts, destroy my update security and reupload it. You really can steal plugins easy, once installed you just go to the plugin folder and copy everything. Then reupload the source code. This takes about 1 minute, do you now understand what I mean? I know that everything that the client can see can be stoled, but at one time we had something called ClosedModule (I can‘t remember the name), and no one could see the source code, wich was good. So, I even think that no one could steal some plugins. But, it was removed because it was used by exploiters and hackers to create scripts wich were malicious and that no one could read.
So, what I hope is that Roblox add them again, but this time only Roblox can read the source code: And all the other persons can‘t. This would “prevent“ hackers, because if they create a malicious code we can report it to Roblox, wich then can read it, and plugin stealers can‘t steal plugins (code, they still can steal the UI, but not the code). Wich, would help more.
(Correct me if I am wrong to avoid any spread of misinformations.)
I tried to sell my plugin but I can’t for robux, but I can just put it for free. Do I have to be premium to do that or do I have to become part of a program like UGC catalog ?
As far as I’m aware Roblox is only allowing certain people to make payed plugin similar to UGC. I had the same problem myself. But they are trying to give this feature to everyone.
