Rec Room - gribbly
  • Fixes a nasty bug with custom rooms. Long story, but rooms with large objects could cause a cascading networking issue that could manifest a variety of symptoms: Failure to join the room (dumped back to Dorm Room with -6), players looking frozen/desynced, other weirdness.
  • Fixes behavior of filters when browsing Custom Rooms
  • Removes insistent "looks like you're the first one here..." for custom rooms based on The Lounge.

Rec Room - gribbly
  • Adds circuit control for holotars!
  • Fixed issue where maker pen creations looked "shiny" (we messed up the normals, sorry)
  • Tweaked "Enable Watch Notifications" setting so you still get prompted for infrequent/non-message events like "Do you want to take your party with you?"
  • Circuits - Delay and Timer chips now accept times in 1/10th of a second increments (previously one second). Note that this will screw up your times in existing circuits - you'll need to multiply your values by 10 (sorry).
  • Circuits - fixed issue where deleting a connected chip could put room into a bad state
  • Circuits - fixed issue that could prevent a custom room from loading
  • PS4 - fixed issue where buttons weren't showing up for Custom Room --> Details

Get ready for a V-ARRR adventure with our new, pirate-themed, Quest: "The Isle of Lost Skulls"



Your merry band are captured en route to the Isle of Lost Skulls, on an adventure to claim its legendary treasure. You'll need all your wit and skill to make it to the Isle, defeat the fearsome guardian that awaits you, and escape with the gold!
  • Like all our Quests, The Isle of Lost Skulls is hard and best played as a group. Up to three players can play together. Party up!
  • This Quest comes with its own themed Merch Booth in the Quest lobby! Gold found by anyone is credited to the whole team, but you need to escape the Isle alive to keep it and spend it on fancy pirate duds!
  • If you are defeated, you'll drop your gold where you fall, and it'll be waiting there for you on your next run (in the same Rec Room session... if you quit, your gold is lost forever...)
We hope you have as much fun playing it as we had making it! Let us know what you think (unless of course you hate it, in which case please keep that to yourself and/or lie to us)
But wait there's more!
  • The Rec Center Merch Booth is back by popular demand! We heard lots of positive feedback so it's staying and we'll keep developing it to be more awesome! This update we've tweaked how many tokens you get, how much stuff costs, etc. Expect this to grow and change over the following weeks and months.
  • Note: We've removed pretty much all random package drops starting with this update. It's the end of an era! No more random boxes when you finish a paintball game... (at least for a while - we have some ideas for a cooler variant of this down the road). No more duplicate gloves at the start of every session! Anyway, pour one out for gift boxes sad violin music Seriously, with the new Merch Booth we felt like random packages were no longer needed. Holler if you disagree.
  • We did a big rec.net update! Amongst many other things, the front page now features the "What's New" feed, which is a constantly updating stream of stuff happening in Rec Room! Be sure to check it out at http://rec.net
  • You can now subscribe to another Rec Room player. When you're subscribed to someone, you'll see any rooms they create in the "Following" tab of the Custom Rooms screen in your watch. The Following tab also shows any rooms you've bookmarked (it used to be called "Bookmarks" =])
  • You can now add Holotars to your custom rooms - find the Holotar Projector in the sandbox machine. Place it in your room, then laser point the button to start recording your movements and voice! You can record up to 30 seconds. Holotars are saved with your room, so any visitors will see them!

  • Note: There are a couple of limitations with Holotars v1 - they don't yet record your facial animations, and you can't yet trigger them with circuits. We almost got that in, but couldn't quite squeeze it in this update. Next update...
  • Maker Pen - you can now recolor placed shapes with the Recolor tool! Use it to apply the currently selected color to shapes (when in EDIT mode). Speaking of EDIT mode...
  • Maker Pen - EDIT mode now has its own button: "Edit Shapes". Previously you had to go into Settings for a maker pen object, then tap "Edit". Tap "Done" to leave EDIT mode. We've tried to make this a little more obvious, as OBJECT/EDIT mode is still a bit confusing. This makes it slightly less confusing. We hope to make it even less confusing in the future!
  • Maker Pen - Maker pen objects can now be set to "Environment" (this is the default) or "Physical". Environment objects have collision, but don't move. Physical objects move, have gravity, etc. This helps reduce the cost of maker pen stuff, which is an ongoing project for us! We want you to be able to make as much stuff as possible... we know you want that too.
  • Custom Rooms - you can now Clone a room. Room owners (including co-owners) can now create a clone of the room they're in (you'll be prompted for a new name) via the This Room button.
  • Custom Rooms - you can now restore from a history of the past ten saves. You'll be prompted to choose when you hit This Room-->Restore. By default, you'll restore the most recent save, but you can go back further in time using the incredibly attractive drop down menu we've provided.
  • Custom Rooms - you can now choose to start a new instance of a Custom Room (if it supports instancing). Tap "Start Instance" in Room Details. Instances you start this way will be private/invite-only.
  • Circuits - there's now a random number generator chip. Guess what this does!
  • Circuits - there's now a sound effect chip. Use this to trigger sound effects with circuit events. Limited selection for now, we have a plan to expand! If there's specific sound effects you want, let us know.
  • Circuits - you can now connect the sandbox dice to circuits! I guess this is another kind of random number generator =]
  • Saved outfits - more slots for your sweet pirate outfits!

Then of course there's some bug fixes!
  • Fixed loads of bugs with maker pen objects and saving/loading rooms. This remains a big focus for us... we love what people are building in their custom rooms, so we're striving to make the tools as reliable as possible.
  • JumboTron - fixed a bug where JumboTron was reluctant to shoot at you. We docked him a couple of weeks pay for laziness.
  • Settings - made "enable watch notifications" fully suppress all incoming watch notifications when turned off.

OK phew that's quite an update! As always, let us know what you think. We rely on your feedback - positive and negative - to make Rec Room better. Hit us up: https://www.againstgrav.com/contact-us-1
