Downloads
How to download your purchased plugins, re-download after updates, and understand source-protected builds.
Finding Your Purchases
All purchased plugins are listed at Dashboard → My Purchases. Each row shows the plugin name, the version you own, your license key, and a Download button.
The Download Flow
Clicking Download triggers a short preparation step before the file starts downloading:
- PulsePlugin checks your license is still active and in good standing.
- If the plugin uses source protection, your personalised build is prepared (see below).
- A time-limited, signed download URL is generated and your browser starts the download.
Source-Protected Downloads
Some sellers enable source protection on their plugins. When this is on, the file you download is an obfuscated build — it is not the raw source code. There are two protection modes:
Per-buyer
A unique obfuscated build is generated for you specifically. The build is tied to your buyer identity. Each download generates a fresh personalised zip containing the plugin file and your license config.
Shared
A single obfuscated build is shared across all buyers of the same version. You still receive a personalised delivery zip with your license config, but the underlying obfuscated binary is the same for everyone.
Downloading Updates
When a seller publishes a new version, you will receive an email notification. Visit My Purchases and click Download to get the latest version. Your license key stays the same across updates.
What's in the Zip
Obfuscated Rust plugins
Source-protected Rust plugins are delivered as a zip with both Oxide and Carbon folder structures so you can extract directly into your server root:
Nick-v1.0.0.zip
├── oxide/
│ ├── plugins/
│ │ └── Nick.cs ← place in [server]/oxide/plugins/
│ └── config/
│ └── Nick.license.json ← place in [server]/oxide/config/
└── carbon/
├── plugins/
│ └── Nick.cs ← place in [server]/carbon/plugins/
└── configs/
└── Nick.license.json ← place in [server]/carbon/configs/The .license.json file is pre-filled with your key — no manual editing required. Note that Oxide uses config/ (singular) and Carbon uses configs/ (plural).
Non-obfuscated Rust plugins
Plugins without source protection deliver the plain source file with no license config:
Nick-v1.0.0.zip
└── Nick.cs ← plain .cs source, no license requiredDrop it into your oxide/plugins/ or carbon/plugins/ folder. No activation required.
Minecraft plugins
Licensed Minecraft plugins contain:
PluginName.jar— the plugin file to place in yourplugins/folderconfig/PluginName.license.json— your license key pre-filled for easy configuration
