New Year & Steam Workshop Major Update! V1.10
Steam Workshop Support Now Available
This feature requires logging into Steam. Click “File” → “Workshop” to open the Workshop window. Inside the Workshop window, users can browse assets created by other users, as well as view assets they have subscribed to or uploaded.
Common asset types available in the Workshop include:
Projects (full projects), portrait templates, animation model collections (models with corresponding animations), models, animations, sprites, background images, icons, sound effects, and music.
Users can browse assets by category or search using keywords. Subscribed assets will be downloaded in the background and can be imported into the current project at any time.
Users can open the upload page within the Workshop window to select assets, package them, and upload them to the Workshop server.
Users can also open the Steam Workshop web page directly from the window to preview and edit their content.
