Welcome to our June 21st Patch Notes!

The new Avatar system is now live

The Avatar system has been completely reworked to allow mixing and matching of individual parts for tremendously more customization. See full details below.

MetaMask Wallet linking

  • Users can now connect MetaMask wallets to their accounts!
  • Players can use owned digital assets as profile pictures and on the new NFTee character cosmetic.
  • Creators can use a new API to get the contents of a user’s wallet and information about collections on OpenSea.
  • Read more about Wallet linking and our plans for NFTs inside of Core in our blog post.
  • What is MetaMask and how do you connect it to Core? Learn more in our help center article.

Make sure to watch the patch notes live-stream hosted by Kalvothe on the Core Live Twitch channel at 12:30 PM PST.

General

  • New: Revamped Avatar System:
    • Players now have much more control over individual hairs, colors, head items, and more!
    • For players that previously purchased characters, you will have all the parts that make up that character - nothing will be lost.
    • All users will go through the new Avatar flow to create their Avatar. Because the system has changed so much under the hood, old presets are discarded and all users will create through the new interface.
    • We can’t wait to see everyone's new style in the Core Metaverse!
  • New: MetaMask wallet linking:
    • Players can now link a MetaMask wallet to their account by logging into coregames.com and going to Settings > Linked Accounts in the user's profile menu in the top right.
    • Once a wallet is linked, image NFTs in it that are on the Ethereum blockchain and on OpenSea can be used as Profile Pictures and NFTee images inside of Core.
    • To set a profile picture, just go to the new NFT tab when editing your picture.
    • All players have the new NFTee character cosmetic. To put an image on it, just select the shirt and click the NFT icon, which will show you all of the images in your linked wallets. You can also edit the horizontal and vertical position, as well as the scale of the image.
    • Lazy minted images can be used with this setup, which means that it is very easy for any user to put an image on OpenSea and use it within Core without paying any gas fees. Just create a Metamask wallet, go to OpenSea, and click the "Create" button.
    • Additionally, creators can now get info about items in users' wallets. See the API section for full details. This will allow games to do all sorts of cool things with NFTs from existing collections, or by minting their own NFTs on OpenSea and creating games based around them!
  • New: Added 1280 x 720 (16:9) resolution to the Device Preview list under "PC".
  • New: In the Terrain editor, holding the Shift key while in Sculpt mode, the brush will now change to the Smooth tool.
    • Also added hotkeys [ ] to change brush size and 0-9 keys to adjust strength.
  • New: Creators now have access to "Bot Spawning" on the profiler to test out the performance of their games with multiple players.
    • This feature is accessible to game owners only.
  • New: Added a "Mesh Merging Memory" counter to the Profiler.
  • New: This release exposes the "Complex Collision" flag in the editor.
    • When turned off this enables simpler, faster capsule collision for players.
    • As an example, games like shooters will likely want to keep Complex Collision on, since exact player collision is important for gameplay. Social experiences and games like Obbys or clickers will want this setting off so they can have increased performance since they will not care about the exact collision on a player.
  • New: In Create mode, the Material Editor window position is now persisted as part of layouts through exit and re-entering.
    • There are now buttons to select another Custom Material to edit, and "Find in Catalog/Open Reference Viewer" for current Custom Material.
    • Material Editor now supports having multiple tabs open at same time, we a added "Open in New Tab" button to select and edit custom materials in another tab. If the asset is already open, it will try to focus on existing tab instead.
  • New: Emotes will now have basic movement SFX when performed in-game or within the avatar editor emote selection screen.
  • New: Added a new "Enable Camera Collision" property in the scene category.
  • Changed: The dropdown for selecting a tool in the "Terrain Sculpting" panel has been replaced with a button for each tool.
  • Fixed: The "Play", "Events", and "My Games & Events" subtabs will no longer wrap the category rows on smaller or more narrow resolutions. They will now shrink the category rows down to fit all entries across.
  • Fixed: An issue where UIContainer's canvases set to a refresh rate of 0 would sometimes fail to render custom brushes correctly.
  • Fixed: An issue where dynamically spawned networked meshes were not able to provide mesh asset information on clients.
  • Fixed: Updated "Wood Plank" material to remove visible seam in texture.
  • Fixed: Updated "Sphere - Half" to remove a duplicate mesh that was causing transparency to display inconsistently.
  • Fixed: An issue where equipping a weapon with an empty animation stance would cause some animations to fail.
  • Fixed: When using the property playbackRateMultiplier on an AnimatedMesh, setting its value to zero will not only stop the animations but will also improve performance.
  • Fixed: Certain composite materials in the catalog were not correctly applying color modifications from scripts.
  • Fixed: A rare crash in CoreString.Trim() when called with delimiters that are longer than the string to be trimmed.

API

Blockchain

  • New: Added the a Blockchain namespace that is a collection of functions for looking up blockchain tokens, collections, and contracts.
