Tool Submission Guidelines
All valid tool submissions will be tested and reviewed by a staff member. Rejected submissions or removals will be logged here.
In addition to these rules, it is strongly recommended that in developing your tool you make an effort to have it be interoperable with, or avoid conflicting with, other essential tools and commonly used major resources.

- You must be the author of the tool
This is your tool, you have received permission from its author to upload it, or the license agreement included with the tool (if it has one) specifies that it may be reuploaded to other sites. - Tool must come with documentation
The tool contains a readme, help file, internal documentation, or some other form of instruction detailing how to use the tool. - Must not already be hosted
Do not submit a tool that is already hosted tool anywhere within the section. This means no "starter packs" or anything similar! - Tool must have relevance
The tool's purpose must be directly related to or useful for hacking a game which we support in some way. - Tool must not be self-updating
A tool that updates itself from an external server bypasses our moderation process, and poses a security risk to users. SMW Central will not accept or host any tool with this functionality. - Submitting Online Tools
Lightweight browser tools that are built out of simple HTML and JavaScript are better suited to the Online Tools section. See the guidelines below for submitting an Online Tool.
