Re: Can't find the plugin folder
plugins folder is created if needed when the user installs a plug-in (the same behavior applies to furniture, textures and languages folders where sh3f, sh3t and sh3l files are stored). You can create it yourself if you want to.

Re: Can't find the plugin folder
Thanks for your answer Puybaret. I created the plugins folder and put a test plugin I wrote (a JAR file), but it's not read by SH3D when I run it. So I downloaded some plugin to double check and it worked. However, that plugin had a ".sh3p" extension. What's the diffrenece between a JAR plugin and a .sh3p plugin and how do I make one?

Re: Can't find the plugin folder
I also tried to test with the VolumePlugin from the tutorial to make sure I get everything right, but in the PluginAction.execute() method eclipse can not resolve the call to getHome(). And indeed I couldn't see where that method is declared?

Re: Can't find the plugin folder
I finished creating the VolumePlugin, exported to JAR, changed extension to sh3p and run. I got the message saying the plugin will work in the next run but there's nothing new in the menu :(
