This is WIP
This is a project template for creating custom plugins for Pro Motion NG, a fantastic pixel art and animation program. It is also available on Steam.
The code does absolutely nothing. A message box is displayed when the initialization function is invoked (see src/PluginInterface.cpp). Tested with version 8.0.1.0 of Pro Motion NG.
You'll need the following tools:
- git
- CMake
- a current version of Visual Studio
Open a terminal (MSYS2, PowerShell, etc.) and enter
git clone https://github.com/georgjz/pro-motion-ng-plugin-template.git myplugin
cd myplugin
cmake -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -S . -B build
cmake --build build --config Release
NB! if you wish to your plugin to work with a version of Pro Motion NG prior to Changes with 8.0.0 beta 3, you'll need to link again 32-bit libraries with -A Win32:
cmake -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A Win32 -S . -B build
Newer versions should build/work fine without the extra option.
Once the build is finished, copy the resulting DLL build/Release/PluginTemplate.dll to the plugin folder of Pro Motion NG (usually something like C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pro Motion NG\plugins if you're using the steam edition). Then update plugins.ini on include
pluginX_exe=plugins\PluginTemplate.dll
pluginX_name=Plugin Template (CMake)
where X is some subsequent integer (to other plugins already installed). See Pro Motion NG's plugin documentation for details.
WIP. See the developer documentation of Pro Motion NG for the time being.
