To set up PLGarage you will need:

  • a build of PLGarage
  • MySql(or MariaDB) database

When you will all of the necessary components you can proceed with the setup process.

  1. Open terminal and navigate to the folder where PLGarage's executable was placed
  2. Run PLGarage from terminal to get an example configuration file.
  3. Open the ExampleConfig.json file in a text editor or an IDE
  4. Modify uid variable inside MysqlConnectionString so it will have the username of the user that PLGarage will use to connect to your MySql(MariaDB) server for example uid=example
  5. Modify pwd variable inside MysqlConnectionString so it will have the password of the user that PLGarage will use to connect to your MySql(MariaDB) server for example pwd=example
  6. (optional) if your MySql(MariaDB) server is hosted somewhere else, you will also need to modify server variable inside MysqlConnectionString so it will have the ip address or a domain of your MySql(MariaDB) server for example server=example.com
  7. Save and close the editor
  8. Rename ExampleConfig.json to config.json

Congradulations now you're ready to run PLGarage if you want to modify some additional variable inside config.json head over to "Configuration" page to check what the variables inside the config file mean.

If you want to play ModNation Racers(PS3) or LittleBigPlanet Karting then you will also have to set up Bombd server and connect it to your PLGarage instance, but if you want to play ModNation Racers PSP then you will need to set up and connect FLS server, if you won't set up and connect any of these types of servers the only game that will be playable on your instance is going to be ModNation Racers: Road Trip(unless you set BlockMNR to true in your config...)
