Hey everyone!

We're back with another update. This time around, we focused heavily on squashing some of the most annoying client bugs, expanding language support, and dropping a very cool new tool for our scripters.

Here is what’s new:

🛠️ For Scripters: The New Gizmo API​

We’ve added a brand-new Gizmo API to the scripting engine. For the tech-savvy among you: this is powered by ImGui (specifically the ImGuizmo library). This should make working, building, and debugging in 3D space a whole lot easier for you.

Check out this quick showcase to see the new Gizmo API in action:

🖥️ No More Alt-Tab Nightmares & Resolution Fixes​

We tackled some of the most frustrating window crashes. You can finally Alt-Tab safely without getting stuck on a black screen or crashing the game!

On top of that, we fixed the crashes that happened when changing your resolution in the graphics settings, and stopped the game window from forcing itself into full resolution.

🌍 WebUI IME Support​

Our WebUI now natively supports IME input, meaning players can now properly type in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean!

⏳ Game Start Overlay​

If your game ever takes a little longer to start up than usual (which is usually caused by Windows Defender or other Anti-Virus software scanning the files), we’ve added a helpful new overlay. Now you'll know exactly what's going on and won't be left wondering if your game just froze.

🔧 Under the Hood & QoL​

As always, we tweaked some things in the background to keep everything running smoothly:

  • HUD Improvements: The FPS counter and the watermark rendering look much cleaner now.
  • Scripting Fixes: We improved native invocation code and fixed an annoying crash related to thread destruction.
  • WebUI & Engine: Fixed textures not recreating after a D3D reset, improved IPC code, and added more network session logs to help with debugging.
