Tabletop Simulator - Kimiko
Happy 2017! Here’s to another great year of gaming! To celebrate the new year, we’re having a giveaway for Tabletop Simulator and its DLCs, so be sure to check that out here.

This update focuses a lot on cleaning up the UI and existing functions as we really want TTS to look nice and clean. If you come across any funny looking bugs be sure to post them on our forums here.

Have suggestions for new features you’d like to see? Then post them either on our official forums or in the latest pinned thread on our sub-reddit.




New Camera Mode - Top Down
  • You can now use the new Orthographic camera.
  • This keeps the camera locked in top down 2D view.
  • This is great for games that require more of a top down view or for placing down and aligning objects perfectly.
  • Press P to toggle between the camera modes or right click on a non-object to bring up the Global Contextual Menu.

ALT Zoom Revamp
  • Orthographic camera so everything is perfectly flat and readable at any angle.
  • Improved object clipping prevention.
  • You can now see objects as they are supposed to be.

  • Fixed issue with cards in new decks not being given a unique GUID.
  • Fixed scripting exploit to spawn objects when they are destroyed.
  • Fixed not cleaning up Lua coroutines properly.

  • Saved objects added to Objects menu in the top bar, so you no longer need to go to the Chest to access it.
  • Added confirmation button when loading a save to prevent accidental missclicks.
  • Added a /debug command to highlight objects red that are moving. Great for tracking down objects that are causing network and physics overhead.

Fixes

  • Fixed issue with building cards locking into place upside-down in Tiny Epic Western.

This is the probably the longest we’ve gone without an update, so thanks for your patience! We’re all set up in our new little studio in Austin, TX and while we’re not completely situated, we’re happy to be in one place! We’re still looking for programmers, so if you’re in the area (must live in Austin already!), then please send us your info.

Our latest DLC Tiny Epic Western by Gamelyn Games is now live! Tiny Epic Western marks the 4th game from Gamelyn Games we have released. We’re looking forward to seeing what else the future holds.

We have made some major changes to our Games menu which now houses the default “Classic” games, DLCs, Workshop mods and Saves. You can now easily find all your games in one spot along with thumbnails! We can finally get rid of those old ugly Workshop and Save/Load menus! We have also updated the Top menu and ESC menu, with more changes to come!

This will be our last update of 2016 as we go home for the holidays. We wish you all a very happy holiday and we look forward to seeing you next year. Lots more great things to come in 2017, including updates to VR and getting Oculus Touch users up and running.



New DLC - Tiny Epic Western
  • In Tiny Epic Western, you are the boss! And upon your boss card, you will keep track of your posse and your influence.
  • Now available for $4.99 with a 10% launch discount.
  • 1-4 players, Ages 13 and up.
  • Only the host needs to own the DLC for everyone to play.



Games Menu Overhaul
  • Updated the Games menu to be more user friendly.
  • New Games menu showcases the base "Classic" games, the DLCs, your Workshop mods you've subscribed to and your Saved games.

  • Workshop and Saved games are now shown with a thumbnail.
  • Old save files will not have a thumbnail until resaved.
  • Pages have been implemented so you can easily scroll through the different pages without having one continuous scroll.
  • Unowned DLCs will have a lock icon.
  • Depending on the game category, you can sort by Name, Random, Date Released, Recently updated games, the Slot number, and the Date created.
  • This is still a work in progress as we add more features to the menu, like creating folders and favorites. If you have suggestions, please post them below.

  • ESC menu has also been updated to reflect the new UI changes.
