Rec Room PATCH - the “Showdown” edition

Custom Shirts Marketplace

RR+ members can now submit their Custom Shirts to be sold! Custom Shirts work much like Inventions / Dorm Skins - players can purchase them from a dedicated section of the Watch Store, and the creator of that shirt receives tokens for each purchase. We’ve made some tweaks to the Custom Shirt publishing flow, including adjusting permissions (who can see / purchase your shirt). For moderation purposes, all Custom Shirts are set to the most private permission by default, and will appear pixelated on your profile. To change this so that everyone can see your shirt, edit your shirt via your Profile or the Portfolio, and change the permission to “Everyone”.

In this initial release, only featured shirts are approved to be sold. To submit your shirt for featuring, take a new or existing custom shirt through the publishing process, change the permission to “Everyone” and submit them through the Ink Inc Discord (https://recroom.com/inkinc).

In the coming weeks, we will share our plans to “open up” the marketplace so that there are more ways for creators to sell Custom Shirts. We’re looking forward to supporting and expanding this feature further based on your feedback!

Improved Nametags

Nametags have gotten a visual rework!

  • Party color now shows in nametags separate from name color (so you can now have both a team color and a party color). Players in your party will get a special icon so you can easily tell them apart from players in a different party.
  • Nametag orientation will now stay upright relative to the player's head they are above. In other words, sitting in an upside down chair will make your nametag upside down when looked at by rightside-up players instead of putting your nametag inside your body.
  • Rec Room Plus users now get shiny nametags! If their name isn't already colored from another source (for example, team colors or the CV2 name color chip) then it will also appear gold. This can be turned off by going to your profile and customizing your profile settings.
  • Added a toggle to let you see your own nametag in third person mode in the visuals tab on the settings page

General Improvements and Bug Fixes

  • Fixed bug for move, rotate, and scale tools that no longer allowed single tap to select a single object from a larger selection.
  • Custom Colors have left Beta! We fixed some bugs and gave the HSV Value slider a convenient gradient visual.
  • "Join Event" buttons have been slightly reworded for readability.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented the Respawn Point component from saving any configured roles.
  • All pickups that force you to drop your tools are now swaps. This was already true in most cases.
