Installation

How to Install this plugin.


First Time Installation

Warning

This page is meant for guiding you through installing this plugin for the first time. In case you want to update the plugin instead, please refer to the Updating page instead.

The installation process for this plugin is mostly the same for v20.1 and v21.1. But there are a few differences in where to put the Graphics files and your custom Graphics.


If you have any custom Graphics made related to the Pokedex UI, please make a backup of those Graphics as this plugin comes with modified Graphics for the Pokedex Area UI. These are required in order to actually see the Region Map on the Pokedex Area Page.


Common Installation Process

  1. Extract the Zip file using any extractor tool.
  2. Inside the Arcky's Region Map folder, you'll find 2 folders and 2 files

    Copy the townmapgen.html file, which has the essentials version in it's name that you're using, into your game's root folder and remove the original one.
