The mirror has been totally redesigned! Getting dressed is easier and more convenient than ever!
- New Tabbed layout with Store, My Clothes, and Hair & Face as the main categories.
- Gorgeous, clean, 2D renders of each outfit item.
- Clothes sorting and search - makes it super fast to find what you're looking for. You can even type color names into the search bar.
- The left column represents what you are wearing currently. If you are wearing trial items, it will show a Buy All button.
- After buying an outfit item using the mirror it will be unlocked and applied immediately (without having to open a gift box), so you can instantly start exploring Rec Room in your new look.
- Convenient shortcut button to the Saved Outfits page of the watch
- Screen players now use the menu with a cursor, similar to the watch menu. No more aiming up and down to scroll!
Tucked away in the new mirror UI is a tab for customizing the shape of your avatar's face, with five new options to pick from (plus the original, which is first in the list!) We want you to be able to build an avatar that feels like a reflection of yourself, and this is one of many small steps towards more unique and expressive features.
- Choose between original, heart-shaped, narrow chin, square jaw, round cheeks and long oval.
- Beards and items with close-fitting chin straps will conform to the shape of your face.
- Mouths may be slightly altered in size and position by being mapped to a new face. Tweak as needed!
- New face shapes will appear in new photos, holotars and saved outfits, but will not update anything previously saved or recorded.
Room Doors are also getting a facelift of sorts: Room Doors++!
We have added an upgraded version of the Room Door to the palette! Much like our most recent update to costume dummies, we have provided more flexibility via circuitry to control your room transitions! If the door in your room is somewhat old, to get the new features simply place the Room Door from the palette again. The new Room Doors features include:
Inputs
- Green Pin (Player ID) - You can send any Player ID to this door to trigger a room/subroom transition for that player. This pin also respects your config options for invite method (for subroom only). Note, there are steps in place to prevent using this too frequently upon loading into a room.
Configuration
- Hide Door/Sign - These new options make the door or sign gadget visible.
- Force New Instance (subroom only): This option finally gives players the option to force a new room instance each time the door is used. This adheres to the current instance type you are in (public makes new public instance, private makes a new private instance). This mimics our quest behavior so you can go to the first level of a quest and people in the previous room wont come into your room instance automatically.
Other improvements to doors:
- Teleporters can now grab the door in addition to teleporting into the door
- Hover animation is now back on the doors for additional feedback
- Renamed "Normal" invite mode option to "Ask To Invite Party" to be more descriptive
- Fixed strange UI shuffling that occurred when you picked an invite method
- New default invite mode is now "Party Auto-follow" to make staying with your party much easier to think about. You can change the invite method via the config menu.
- The doors are still kinematic and don't fall when you spawn them in your room.
- Grabbable is no longer a configurable on the Room Door.
And finally, we're also introducing the Free Gifts button - A new prop that lets creators give gifts to their room guests or club members. You buy gifts to add to the button, then other players hit the button and choose a gift to receive. Right now you can stock it with food, film, potions, and KO icons, and we plan to add more item types in the future.
We also fixed a bug which causes Rangefinders to sometimes stop working properly.
As always, thanks for playing Rec Room!
