In fact it's a bit easier, as Joiplay has an option to extract the files in a zipped archive.

Developer(+1)

Can you tell me where that option is?

Does it work on splited zip files?

Thanks

It's under the + icon (the same icon that you use for adding a game), and it's the Import Archive File option. I'm not sure what you mean by "splited", but it worked for me when I used it for the zip of version 1.0.1 of Para Ark 2.

Since Patreon has a weird 200mb limit for each files, I have to split one big file into smaller part like .7z.001, .7z.002 ....

Ah, I see. The zip file that I successfully had Joiplay unzip for me was the itch.io download, where I imagine you didn't have to do the split. Maybe for Patreon you would be better off just including a link to Mega or somewhere for the download, which I think is what most devs on Patreon do.

Thanks :-)

Does this work on iPhone?

Developer(+1)

No, it doesn't work on iPhone. I can't find any ios app that can run RPGMaker MZ yet.

I might be dumb but, what do I do after I extract the file on ZArchiver? Cause I haven't been able to download it at all.

It's useless for us to keep downloading Joiplay. When we install it and log in, I experience severe lag and crashes. I'd rather wait for the Android version if that's possible.
