Wookie Community builds wants you. This blog will show you how to get your build to the bigger audience. So lets get in done and i could be reviewing your build on this site very soon. Have Fun guys!!!
Right Guys this is a big shout out to all Kodi Builders on behalf of the team over at Wookie. They are currently looking for builds to add to their wizard. Do you have what it takes?
I have heard about issues with other well known community wizards being down more than they are up and other’s having various issues. So why not get you build in a place that it deserves.
They have told me they have had no down time since they started 6 months ago.
Why not drop them a tweet if you are interested HERE
Why not have a look at some of the other builds already gracing the Wookie.
They have Three of their own.
Also have some amazing community builds shown below so why not join the team have fun and spread your build across the community
Please follow the instructions below of how to get your build into the Wookie Custom Community Builds.
How to create an update package for the Wookie Wizard
We will do this in three parts:
Part 1: How to get the files out of your device and ready to be uploaded.
Part 2: How to prepare files to be uploaded.
Part 3: How to upload it to the wizard so people can download and test your custom build.
Tips
1: Never leave your passwords in the the addons or you will share it with everyone please also remove any wookie passwords before uploading, they can be found in your userdata folder.
userdata/addon_data/ delete the “plugin.video.aswizard” folder
userdata/profiles/ (now choose a profile) addon_data/ delete the “plugin.video.aswizard” folder
2: Always start from fresh or your update could get too large.
3: Check you userdata folder this is where most of your devices caches kodi info. There will be lots of ways to make your update smaller by removing old thumbnails/addon data.
4: Check your addons folder and remove the packages folder (this is not needed but will take up space).
5: Keep your skins updated everyone likes working links (you can update your build any time you like). It’s ok taking part in the Wookie community custom builds, but if your links stop working then your build is pointless for the end user.
Part 1
The first thing we need to do is get the files form Kodi or SPMC depending what you have built your setup on. I am going to show you how to get the file using an Android 4.4 T8-AML-V2.
You need file manager HD to be able to see the files.
Open file manager and locate and enter the “Android” folder
Now click data
Depending on what you use Kodi or SPMC click the correct folder, I am showing you with kodi so I will pick org.xbmc.kodi
Click .Kodi (or .spmc If you use SPMC)
You now need to copy the addons and the userdata files on to an external SD card so you can explore the files with a PC
Part 2
Now we need to prepare the files.
1/ Copy the userdata and addons file to the desktop
2/Remove any wookie passwords before uploading, they can be found in your userdata folder.
- userdata/addon_data/ delete the “plugin.video.aswizard” folder.
- userdata/profiles/ (now choose a profile) addon_data/ delete the “plugin.video.aswizard” folder
3/ You now need to Zip up both file together with 7-zip Winzip, or any other program that can compress files into .zip files
You should now have one .zip file, if you click on this it should have two folders inside “addons” and “usedata”
Part 3
How to upload your new update to the Wookie.
Find a good file sharing host http://www.archive.org http://www.storegate.com
Upload your .zip file, an image for your icon, and a background to show when someone highlights your icon.
You should now have 3 files uploaded, copy all your download links.
Now start a new subject in THIS thread with images of what your build looks like.
Now copy and past this wookie wizard text onto your post and replace the info with your links and description.
The Wookie Wizard will do the rest…
name=”put the name of your build in here”
