Hey, sorry for the late reply but sure.
You can fork it on github and publish your own version or you can contribute to the existing StudioPresence for everyone to use.
Would love to see this plugin in the background, or in the “Hide Icons” tab on windows, so I don’t have to see a console 24/7. I would run it on my server, but then I would have to connect my discord to it, and it is complicated.
I tried to make it run in the background or the ‘Hide Icons’ tab but I haven’t found a way.
I will look into it later (when I am done working on my game and other stuff) because this is my top priority for this plugin.
However if someone publishes a pull request for it with this feature I’ll add it to the current version.
Well I made a new release for windows users. I combined the Studio Presence and Studio so they launch at the same time. Its on my fork. But how do I get contributing privileges? My github is Nikev2.
Create a pull request to merge your changes to his, and then he has to approve it and merge it for everybody to use.
Hey, I’m trying to get this up but it won’t work for me. I have extracted the file and ran it in desktop, and restarted Studio and Discord several times, but it won’t show up as my activity. My activity on Discord is on. I have no idea why it won’t work.
EDIT: nevermind, it worked after a few minutes. its a great plugin btw!
Kinda cool, but its maybe breaking ToS of roblox.
why would it be breaking the tos? its just Rich Presence for discord
No, this does not break the ToS of Roblox or Discord.
Reassuring it is not malicious
Additionally, if you run into any issues, let me know.
Also, if someone is a MacOS user and knows how to create a pull request, please add your way of running the server into the documentation. It differs from Windows, and as a Windows user, I do not know how to document it. Will be credited (:
mac tutorial for those who were just as confused as me
- download the mac server
- extract it using the archive utility from the app store
- open your terminal and type
chmod u+x
and then drag the server file into your terminal, press enter and it will turn the server into a executeable file. - open the executeable file (if it cannot verify for malware go to settings > privacy and security and scroll down until you find the warning, and press open anyway)
Thanks for the contribution! I am updating the readme to include the Mac documentation too. I will add you as a contributor
Plugin runs really smooth, if you do the steps properly ofcourse.
This functions really well and I love all of the icons! I was going to ask if there’s any plans to let it run in the background/on startup (if that’s even possible) but it turns out it’s already been asked lol.
Could we possibly see it only updating for the selected Studio window? I was working on “Workspace: Solaris”, opened another place to create a few icons for my game, and it’s constantly switching between the two.
I do not plan on adding this feature myself, I attempted to in the past however I was unable to make it well enough and I was not satisfied with its stability.
however, this might help a bit:
Great idea! Yes this is definitely possible and I will most likely add it in the future, It will most likely be just a _G function because I do not want to create a UI for StudioPresence (I do not want the plugin to take space in the plugins tab, because that’s pretty unnecessary)
And thank you for your kind words
StudioPresence’s plugin has been updated, you only have to update the Roblox plugin.
The responsiveness of the plugin is about 2x quicker, along with a lot of optimization regarding HTTPS requests.
Should fix this issue: HttpService extremely sluggish in studio - #19 by Evercyan
@Evercyan @2jammers please let me know if the issue still persists.
Additionally, it only switches to the tab you have used the most recently, this does not work with just switching tabs, however, if you are switching scripts and such it will.
V3.0.3
Fixes Performance Degradation in Roblox Studio
In summary, this should improve the performance of the plugin.
All that is needed to update is your Roblox plugin
it does not work with my windows 11. It keep the node js runtime opened in the background and as soon as I close it, it stops working
It won’t work?? Do I need to install anything? Since I found the tutorial in the youtube I tried and yet there’s no presence in my discord?
I did this
- Install both plugin and the server.
- Open studio
- Restart discord
- Extracted server in the desktop
- Open server
- Still no presence
help?
does the server display the StudioPresence started message?
