Update 26.03.18

We've added a demo recording feature this week, fully integrated with Movie Maker. You can record objects and components in your scene to a MovieClip that can be played back in-game, or imported into Movie Maker for further editing. These movies could be edited into gameplay trailers or machinima, or used within games for killcams, leaderboard replays, or tutorial demonstrations.

You can use the existing Record button from within the Movie Maker editor, or type movie in the console to toggle recording. The recording API is publicly accessible, letting you configure it to suit your game.

Be sure to report any bugs you find, and feel free to ping me on Discord if you have any questions!

We released our first public version of Sausage Survivors 2 this week, give it a go! Community member Eridium did a great video covering it too below, including some developer interviews.

Works mostly like hammer, minus the subdiv stuff. Use the selection stuff from vertex painting to make it match better with vertex paint + stops displacing stuff by accident.

Pasted objects now place to where your cursor is.

You can turn this off in editor preferences if for some reason you hate this.

I found myself wanting this, so I added nudge buttons to number editor widgets. You can also use the up / down arrow keys.

We switched to the latest HLSL 2021 standard for our shader compilation.

If your shaders no longer compile, you might've been using some legacy syntax, check out this migration guide: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/directx/hlsl-2021-migration-guide/

HLSL 2021 brings an assortment of new language features that we think will make shader authoring in HLSL more familiar and productive.

Our next big jump will be to Slang shader language, this is fully backwards compatible with HLSL with a bunch more features and support, and is what Valve are already using in Source 2 these days.

I spiced up the undo dock.

Platform security is a big priority for us which is why we have a HackerOne programme that rewards bug bounties for security exploits. Across all our games we've paid out over $600,000 to exploit hunters.

This week we fixed a couple of exploits:
