[!NOTE]
Hi MonoGame community, MonoGame.Extended is currently being updated to resolve outstanding bug issues, included those surrounding Tiled, and to update for MonoGame 3.8.1.303. Please bear with me as I work through the backlog. You can follow the progress in the v4.0.0 Milestones page.

MonoGame.Extended
MonoGame.Extended is a set of utilities (in the form of libraries/tools) to MonoGame that makes it easier to make games. Choose what you want, the rest stays out of your way. It makes MonoGame more awesome.

Getting started
Code is distributed as NuGet packages in the form of libraries (.dll
files). You can easily install the NuGet packages into your existing MonoGame project using the NuGet Package Manager UI in Visual Studio or by using the command line interface (CLI) in a terminal.
Current Stable Release
[!WARNING]
The current stable release is not compatible with MonoGame 3.8.1.303.
dotnet add package MonoGame.Extended --version 3.8.0
Current Prerelease
[!NOTE]
Prerelease is based on current develop
branch snapshot. There it is not considered stable and may contain bugs
dotnet add package MonoGame.Extended --version 3.9.0-prerelease.4
Using the Content Pipeline Extensions
To use the content pipeline extensions, you will need to edit your .mgcb
file to reference the .dll
. To see an example of how to do this with NuGet see the samples at https://github.com/craftworkgames/MonoGame.Extended-samples. The important pieces are the NuGet.config
file and the .mgcb
file.
