.hxi file encoding
-
Hi all, I'm currently exploring expansions (never really explored it before) and I'm a little confused on HXI files and how they should work. In the docs when describing HXI, it mentions: 'the entire expansion is included in one file which makes it much more convenient to distribute.'
So, after encoding an expansion, do I then only ship the .hxi file? After encoding one of my expansions into an HXI, it's incredibly small (only a few kilobytes) so I'm not sure if I'm missing something or misunderstanding the above statement from the docs.

@paper_lung said in .hxi file encoding:

You need to ship the samples as well. If you're using the hr format you can embed the hxi within the hr file - there's an option to select it in the hr creation window thing.

@David-Healey Ah yes I've got it. So encode to .hxi > export HR1, then I need to use installExpansionFromPackage that's accessible from a button or something in the UI that'll unpack the HXI and samples. thanks!
