Update 0.8.3
Today we released a minor update, which contains new editor features and several bug fixes. It’s also the last update till we are leaving early access. So, stay tuned for update 1.0 coming later this year. Remember that leaving early access doesn’t mean that we will stop pushing updates. We have plans reaching far behind Update 1.0.
[h2]Custom Materials[/h2]
If you are building your own custom map and no theme suits your level design, this feature is made for you. By navigating through the following menus “Editor > Importer > Materials”, you’ll find our new material editor.
Inside the material editor you can create new materials by combining default and imported textures. These newly created materials can later be used inside the map editor to create your own theme.
[h2]Next up Update 1.0[/h2]
Today’s update is just a minor because we are actively working on our next major update 1.0. To give you an idea about what is coming, here is a list of features:
