Why is thumbnail extremely low quality?
I recently made a plugin for adding lgbt+ flags into the game and the plugin itself works fine but the thumbnail, no matter what resolution the png in the file is... is always really pixelated. And I know it's not like the "max resolution" you can have the thumbnail, cause it's like 64x64...
I completely copied everything from the sample plugin btw. Haven't changed anything but the title, id, and the "thumbnail" directory. Please help ;-;

This is a pixelated city sim, you should try make the flags pixely so it suits the graphicsGlobhopping wrote: ↑03 May 2021, 21:56I recently made a plugin for adding lgbt+ flags into the game and the plugin itself works fine but the thumbnail, no matter what resolution the png in the file is... is always really pixelated.

Re: Why is thumbnail extremely low quality?
Each of them are 16x48. But in the thumbnail most of them are reduced to like 12 pixels each (the flag itself, not the flagpole)Zman The Man wrote: ↑03 May 2021, 23:28This is a pixelated city sim, you should try make the flags pixely so it suits the graphics
First picture is the image I put in the plugin file for the thumbnail. Second is a screenshot of what the actual thumbnail looks like. And then the third one is what other thumbnails usually look like, aka, not pixelated. Using Drive cause the attachment option is acting weird. Also, thank you for replying.

Your welcome, the flags seem to suit the game's graphics honestly, or am I blind?Globhopping wrote: ↑05 May 2021, 21:40Each of them are 16x48. But in the thumbnail most of them are reduced to like 12 pixels each (the flag itself, not the flagpole)

Re: Why is thumbnail extremely low quality?
Thet's normal for local plugins that have a thumbnail in their plugin.manifest file. I have a bunch of them and the compression is quite extremeGlobhopping wrote: ↑05 May 2021, 21:40Each of them are 16x48.

It will always be like thatGlobhopping wrote: ↑11 May 2021, 20:38Oh okay. Umm, is there a way to fix that or will it just always stay like that as a local plugin?
