Tabletop Simulator News

[p]Happy New Year Everyone![/p][p]We are kicking off the year with what we are calling Tabletop Simulator 2.0 — a series of major updates that we will be releasing for free with the goal of modernizing Tabletop Simulator and setting up the platform for success over the coming decade and beyond.[/p][p]Tabletop Simulator 2.0 is not a sequel but the same Tabletop Simulator you already own, upgraded and reworked to feel modern, snappy, and more comfortable to use. The recent v14.0 engine update was the stepping stone to begin this process, and we would like to share this roadmap with you early to incorporate your feedback and suggestions.[/p][p]Our major focus and centerpiece for 2.0 is the UI/UX overhaul — reworking the fundamentals of how you play, learn, and build in Tabletop Simulator.[/p][hr][/hr][h2]Summary of Tabletop Simulator 2.0[/h2]

• [p]Improved gameplay experience: Rebuilding the interface and user experience to make TTS more approachable for new and experienced players alike.[/p]
• [p]Practical creator tools: New and improved tools for creators so they can spend more time creating and less time fighting interfaces.[/p]
• [p]Better performance & improved visuals: Modernizing the rendering pipeline and performance foundations.[/p]
• [p]Multiplayer reliability: Networking improvements with a focus on stability and security hardening.[/p]
• [p]VR rework: A modern VR foundation with improved interactions and VR-friendly UI.[/p]
• [p]Steam ecosystem: Better compatibility and usability on Steam platforms such as the Steam Deck and upcoming Steam hardware.[/p]

[hr][/hr][h2]The Tabletop Simulator 2.0 Roadmap[/h2][p]Our plan is to release the changes in the roadmap as individual major updates in the following order so that you can experience the changes earlier and give us the time we need to go through all of your feedback and suggestions.[/p]

1. [p]Stable & Secure Online Play[/p][p]Networking modernization focused on reliability and security improvements.[/p]
   • [p]Upgrading to the new Steam P2P networking which encrypts traffic and helps protect player privacy (including hiding IP addresses).[/p]
   • [p]Overhauling the networking system to offer better protection against exploits from malicious users.[/p]
2. [p]Performance & Hardening Improvements[/p][p]A build/runtime upgrade moving the build over to IL2CPP for better performance characteristics and security hardening by raising the bar against common tampering/exploits.[/p]
3. [p]New Interface & Experience Overhaul (Play Mode / Edit Mode)[/p][p]Full UI/UX overhaul from the ground up on a modern framework (UI Toolkit).[/p][p]The re-design will focus on creating two distinct modes that you can switch between:[/p]
   • [p]Play Mode: Clean and intuitive UI designed to streamline gameplay and make the playing experience less cluttered and confusing.[/p]
   • [p]Edit Mode: Advanced tools and options for creators and power users who want expansive control over their creative process.[/p]
   [p]We also want to support full UI theming and skinning (a “CSS-like” styling system) so creators can build more customized interfaces for their games.[/p]
4. [p]Modern Control Scheme & Controller Support Improvements[/p][p]More consistent controls across mouse/keyboard and controller use with the Steam Deck in mind.[/p]
   • [p]Upgrading to Unity's new input system for better device support and a more modern action-based design.[/p]
5. [p]Visuals & Performance Improvements[/p][p]Major rendering modernization by upgrading to the Universal Rendering Pipeline (URP) while preserving legacy Workshop content.[/p]
   • [p]Reduced CPU usage for rendering with URP's batcher (should improve frame rates and performance in many cases).[/p]
6. [p]VR Rework — Modern VR Foundation & Better VR UI[/p][p]Full VR rework introducing OpenXR with a focus on fluid VR interactions and VR-friendly interfaces.[/p]
7. [p]Steam Deck / Steam Frame / Steam Machine Polish Pass[/p][p]Focused improvements to make Tabletop Simulator run better on Steam platforms and future hardware.[/p]
8. [p]Creator Marketplace[/p][p]A curated marketplace for user content that aims to expand the library of available Tabletop Simulator content without interfering with existing free Steam Workshop submissions. Read more about the Creator Marketplace below.[/p]

[hr][/hr][h2]What is the Creator Marketplace?[/h2][p]Our goal is to expand the options and support for creators who publish content for Tabletop Simulator — giving smaller creators a real chance to monetize their work while also increasing the amount of polished, ready-to-play content available.[/p][p]The Creator Marketplace will be a curated marketplace for content such as:[/p]

• [p]Official DLC-style content[/p]
• [p]TTRPG assets & figurines[/p]
• [p]Original models & assets (tables, tokens, miniatures, props, environments)[/p]
• [p]Polished high-quality experiences designed to work “out of the box”[/p]

[p]We are designing the Creator Marketplace to be creator-first with a top-tier revenue share structure compared to other in-game UGC (user generated content) marketplaces so that more of each purchase goes to the people making the content. We are happy to share more details about this when we get closer to release.[/p][p]Marketplace submissions will be checked and curated by our team to ensure that they are of high quality and do not infringe on intellectual property rights.[/p][p]The Creator Marketplace does not replace the Workshop or introduce a paywall on existing community content. It is an optional library in addition to the Workshop that will let you support creators who produce high-quality content. Like with current DLC content only the host will need to have purchased a marketplace item for it to be available to all connected players.[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][h2]What won’t change[/h2]

• [p]You will not need to purchase a new copy of Tabletop Simulator — all of these updates will be applied to you for free.[/p]
• [p]The Steam Workshop remains fully supported. We are committed to keeping existing content fully playable during this modernization.[/p]
• [p]The core values of Tabletop Simulator remain the same — making it the best platform for finding and playing your favorite tabletop games.[/p]

• [p]When the task for a given id is complete, call: [c]collect_table:add(id, ...)[/c].[/p]
  • [p]The first time this happens for a given id:[/p]
    • [p][c]collect_table.results\[id][/c] is set to the [c]...[/c] you passed in.[/p]

    • [p][c]false[/c] → a rewind state could not be stored. You should always check this before continuing.[/p]
  • [p][c]didSave[/c][/p]
    • [p][c]true[/c] → a new rewind state was actually written.[/p]
    • [p][c]false[/c] → call succeeded but there was nothing new to save.[/p]
  • [p]If [c]block_further_stores[/c] is [c]true[/c] and [c]success[/c] is [c]true[/c], then no additional rewind states will be recorded until:[/p]
    • [p]You call [c]storeRewindState[/c] again, or[/p]
    • [p]You call [c]allowRewindStore()[/c], or[/p]

[h2]Tabletop Simulator v14.0 Public Beta — Engine Upgrade (Unity 6 LTS)[/h2][p]A quick note from the team: We know it’s been a long time since the last big update. Behind the scenes we’ve been doing a lot of groundwork on the engine and tools, and this patch is the first step to a renewed focus on regular updates and improvements to TTS. Thank you for your patience and for sticking with us ❤️[/p][p][/p][h2]Public Beta (Steam)[/h2][p]This is a huge engine and platform update, so we’re rolling it out as a public beta first to shake out any remaining issues before it goes live for everyone.[/p][h3]How to opt into the public beta on Steam[/h3]

1. [p]Open your Steam Library.[/p]
2. [p]Right-click Tabletop Simulator → Properties…[/p]

• [p]Engine upgrade to Unity 6 LTS: smoother performance, better stability, and faster loading in many cases.[/p]
• [p]Native Apple Silicon support on macOS with a universal app that runs on both Apple Silicon and Intel, using Metal by default on Apple Silicon.[/p]
• [p]New Vulkan graphics API option on Windows & Linux (experimental) for potentially better performance in heavy scenes.[/p]
• [p]New minimum system requirements:[/p]
  • [p]Windows: 64-bit Windows 10 21H1+ (Windows 11 supported)[/p]
  • [p]macOS: 11 Big Sur+[/p]
  • [p]Linux: Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 (64-bit)[/p]
• [p]Win 32-bit builds are no longer supported.[/p]
• [p]Game & plugins updated to latest versions and now code-signed for fewer antivirus/security issues.[/p]
• [p]Big quality-of-life upgrades: camera movement, keybind behavior, music player overhaul, notepad improvements, grid tools, erase-all controls, Cloud Manager upgrades, new console options.[/p]
• [p]New Lua tools for drafting, hand selection, hand “stash” areas, rewind control, and more scripting power.[/p]

[p]Gameplay, rules, and your saves are unchanged. This is primarily an engine and quality-of-life update.[/p]

[hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Engine, Platform & Security[/h2]

• [p]Updated TTS to Unity 6 LTS.[/p]
• [p]Updated all plugins to their latest compatible versions.[/p]

[p][/p][h3]New OS / Platform Requirements[/h3]

• [p]Windows[/p]
  • [p]64-bit only.[/p]
  • [p]Minimum: Windows 10 version 21H1 (build 19043) or newer.[/p]
  • [p]Windows 11 fully supported.[/p]
• [p]macOS[/p]
  • [p]Minimum: macOS 11 Big Sur or newer.[/p]
  • [p]Now ships as a universal app that runs on both Intel and Apple Silicon (M-series).[/p]
  • [p]On Apple Silicon, TTS now runs natively (no Rosetta required).[/p]
• [p]Linux[/p]
  • [p]Supported: Ubuntu 22.04 / 24.04, 64-bit.[/p]
  • [p]Wayland and X11 supported (behavior may vary by distro/driver).[/p]

[p][/p]

[p]If you’re on an older OS than the above, TTS may not launch after this update. Please update your system.[/p]

[p][/p][h3]Graphics APIs[/h3]

• [p]macOS (Apple Silicon):[/p]
  • [p]Metal is now the default graphics API when running on Apple Silicon.[/p]
  • [p]If you’re not on Apple Silicon, the game uses OpenGLCore by default.[/p]
• [p]Windows & Linux:[/p]
  • [p]Added Vulkan as a new experimental graphics API.[/p]
  • [p]In very demanding scenes, Vulkan can offer better performance on supported hardware.[/p]
  • [p]Because Vulkan is still experimental, if you hit visual glitches or stability problems, switch back to the default renderer.[/p]

[p][/p][h3]Security[/h3]

• [p]Includes the latest Unity 6 security fixes, addressing known file-loading vulnerabilities in older engine versions.[/p]

[hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]VR (Beta Note)[/h2]

• [p]In the current public beta, post-processing is not active in VR.
  This means effects like LUT-based color grading and other post-processing visuals do not work in VR yet. We’re planning to restore this in a future update.[/p]

[hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Music Player[/h2]

• [p]Added search filter for playlists. (Nolt #2143)[/p]
• [p]Added Clear Playlist button.[/p]
• [p]Added Export Playlist and Import Playlist:[/p]
  • [p]Save your current playlist to a file.[/p]

  • [p][c]ui_notepad_size[/c][/p]
  • [p][c]ui_notepad_text[/c][/p]

[hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Grid[/h2]

[hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Misc Fixes[/h2]

• [p]You can now obtain the “Be Social” achievement using in-game chat. (Nolt #1895)[/p]
• [p]Fixed game crashing when trying to load a CMYK JPG.[/p]
• [p]Fixed line tool not converting to cm in component mode. (Nolt #1934)[/p]
• [p]Fixed “Showing Hand” button displaying incorrect color after seat swap.[/p]
• [p]Fixed on-screen hand blocking in-game UI. (Nolt #1757)[/p]

• [p]Fixed hotseat players being unable to drop cards in searched deck. (Nolt #1959)[/p]
• [p]Fixed hotseat turn incorrectly resetting when loading a Classic game.[/p]
• [p]When starting a hotseat game, the game now only picks larger tables, so all player colors are immediately selectable.[/p]
• [p]Fixed context menu not clamping to screen. (Nolt #1966)[/p]
• [p]Fixed context menu appearing in the wrong position when right-clicking a card in hand. (Nolt #2051)[/p]
• [p]Fixed unintuitive Text Tool placement behavior.[/p]
• [p]Fixed appearance of custom card aspect ratios when searching containers. (Nolt #2021)[/p]

• [p]Fixed Japanese language name in language select. (Nolt #2116)[/p]
• [p]Fixed shake detector triggering when the user spams Tap.[/p]
• [p]Fixed Random Domino/Card/Mahjong Tile not generating every possible object. (Nolt #2160, #2154)[/p]

• [p]Fixed game breaking on first launch but working on subsequent launches.[/p]
• [p]Fixed cards getting cut off onscreen when scaling very large hands.[/p]

• [p]Fixed issues when uploading PDF files via “Upload All” in the Cloud Manager.[/p]
• [p]Fixed a bug where objects with multiple assets (primary/secondary AssetBundles) could think they finished loading too early, breaking on-screen hands, highlighting, and Lua load completion.[/p]
• [p]Fixed dice behavior when picking up and dropping instantly, so dice now roll correctly in that scenario.[/p]
• [p]Fixed VR floor setting being inverted for the [c]vr_floor[/c] option.[/p]

[hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Lua[/h2][p]New Lua functions and features for creators:[/p][h3]Object State Changes[/h3]

• [p]Added [c]tryObjectStateChange(object, new_state_index, player_label)[/c] and [c]object.tryStateChange(new_state_index, player_label)[/c].
  (Nolt #1822)[/p]

[p]These are called whenever a user uses the state change action on an object — even if the object doesn’t actually have extra states. That means:[/p]

• [p]You can hook into the “state change” action to drive similar custom behavior in your own scripts.[/p]
• [p]You should not use this as a generic “do anything” trigger; keep it semantically tied to state-change-like behavior so your mods remain intuitive.[/p]

[h3][c]Wait.collect[/c][/h3]

• [p]Added
  [c]Wait.collect(table expected_ids, on_finished, on_add = nil, on_error = nil) -> {table expected, table results, add(id, ...), reset()}[/c].[/p]

[p][c]Wait.collect[/c] takes a list of expected ids and returns a [c]collect_table[/c]:[/p]

• [p]When the task for a given id is complete, call:
  [c]collect_table:add(id, ...)[/c].[/p]
  • [p]The first time this happens for a given id:[/p]
    • [p][c]collect_table.results\[id][/c] is set to the [c]...[/c] you passed in.[/p]
    • [p]If you provided [c]on_add[/c] to [c]Wait.collect[/c], it is called as:
      [c]on_add(id, ...)[/c].[/p]
• [p]Error handling:[/p]
  • [p]If you call [c]add[/c] more than once for the same id and you provided [c]on_error[/c], it is called as:
    [c]on_error(Wait.COLLECT_DUPLICATE, id, ...)[/c].[/p]
  • [p]If you call [c]add[/c] with an id that was not expected and you provided [c]on_error[/c], it is called as:
    [c]on_error(Wait.COLLECT_UNKNOWN, id, ...)[/c].[/p]

[p]When all expected ids have been added:[/p]

• [p][c]on_finished(results)[/c] is called with the final [c]results[/c] table.[/p]

[p]You can call:[/p]

• [p][c]collect_table:reset()[/c] to zero out call counts and clear results so you can reuse the same collector.[/p]

[h3]Rewind State[/h3][p]Rewind states are stored periodically. If a store happens in the middle of a complex scripted change, you can end up with bad intermediate states. These helpers let you control when rewinds are saved.
(Nolt #617)[/p]

• [p][c]storeRewindState(closure andThen, block_further_stores)[/c][/p]
  • [p]Attempts to store a rewind state if there are unsaved changes, then calls:
    [c]andThen(success, didSave)[/c].[/p]
  • [p][c]success[/c]:[/p]
    • [p][c]true[/c] → the call completed successfully.[/p]
    • [p][c]false[/c] → a rewind state could not be stored. You should always check this before continuing.[/p]
  • [p][c]didSave[/c]:[/p]
    • [p][c]true[/c] → a new rewind state was actually written.[/p]
    • [p][c]false[/c] → call succeeded but there was nothing new to save.[/p]
  • [p]If [c]block_further_stores[/c] is [c]true[/c] and [c]success[/c] is [c]true[/c], then no additional rewind states will be recorded until:[/p]
    • [p]You call [c]storeRewindState[/c] again, or[/p]
    • [p]You call [c]allowRewindStore()[/c], or[/p]
    • [p]60 seconds have passed.[/p]
  [p]If [c]success == false[/c], the safest simple strategy is to retry [c]storeRewindState[/c] before proceeding with the critical part of your script.[/p]
• [p][c]allowRewindStore()[/c][/p]
  • [p]Clears the block on storing rewind states.[/p]
  • [p]You should call this any time you previously used [c]storeRewindState[/c] with [c]block_further_stores = true[/c], once your “don’t interrupt me” work has finished.[/p]

[h3]Hand Zone Stash[/h3][p]Each player’s primary hand zone now has a “stash”:[/p]

• [p][c]player.getHandStash()[/c] → returns the stash object if it exists.[/p]
• [p][c]player.drawHandStash()[/c] → draws all cards from stash into hand.[/p]
• [p][c]player.setHandStashLocation(v3 position, int rotation)[/c] → set stash position & rotation.[/p]
• [p][c]card.moveToHandStash()[/c] → moves a card in hand into its stash.[/p]

[p]Use cases: drafting mechanics, temporary hidden piles, etc.[/p][h3]Hand Select Mode[/h3][p]Automate drafting & hand selection:[/p]

• [p][c]chooseInHand(label, minCount, maxCount, prompt, players) -> affectedPlayers[/c][/p]
• [p][c]chooseInHandOrCancel(label, minCount, maxCount, prompt, players) -> affectedPlayers[/c][/p]
• [p][c]clearChooseInHand(players) -> affectedPlayers[/c][/p]
• [p][c]currentChooseInHand(player) -> label[/c][/p]
• [p][c]onPlayerHandChoice(player_color, label, objects)[/c]
  → Callback triggered when a player confirms their selection.[/p]

[h3]Lua Fixes[/h3]

• [p]Fixed [c]JSON.encode[/c] not working correctly with Unicode. (Nolt #1263)[/p]
