Simon Brown 41 Report post Posted January 27, 2008 To help you create a filetype plugin - I have created a template to use in visual studio. It is attached (remember not to unzip it). Use at your own risk. Paint.NET FileType.zip 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pyrochild 344 Report post Posted January 29, 2008 Comments Please You'll get comments when someone uses it. Effect plugins don't get written every day, y'know, and FileType plugins are even rarer. Rarer... that's hard to say. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rarer... that's hard to say. QFT. I haven't downloaded a filetype plugin since OptiPNG. And it's mostly because there hasn't been one since OptiPNG. :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Simon Brown 41 Report post Posted January 29, 2008 I'm working on one at the moment. In the end probably most of my plugins will be filetypes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

why06 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 Thanks for this. I'm looking to make a plugin so that Paint can work with and reproduce Lithtech .dtx files Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ionosys 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2011 (edited) Thx, a lot I had looked for that kind of template Edited July 22, 2011 by ionosys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FigBug 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2013 I know this template is really old, just wondering if the file plugins have changed in the mean time. I tried building this plugin and it doesn't load, and neither does an older icon plugin I had. Paint.Net doesn't report any plugin load errors. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
