Dear Stormworkers,
This week we are adding the ability to add a custom thumbnail to your workshop uploads!
Players have been using exploits to attach custom thumbnails for some time now, so we wanted to level the playing field and officially support player created thumbnail images.
You can place 512x512 png images in your Stormworks custom thumbnails user data folder and these thumbnails will be accessible from the upload-to-workshop screen. These folders can be found at:
Windows: %appdata%/Stormworks/custom_thumbnails
MacOS: Library/Application Support/Stormworks/custom_thumbnails
The images will be uploaded with standardised overlays to show the workshop asset type, so players can easily tell where the workshop item will appear in game.
We hope you enjoy the new minor update and we can't wait to see your new Workshop thumbnails!
Much love <3
The Stormworks Developers
