The R6S x Aim Lab Combine Event

We have just launched 5 new tasks, specifically designed for Siege to kick off the R6S Aim Lab Combine! Play those tasks and compare yourself against the pros with our Player Card! The limited time Player Card gives you great insight into your motor, perception & cognition skills, alongside an overall score! Share it on Twitter with #AIMLABCOMBINE to see how you shape up against your buddies! The event is live from today until the 18th of March!

SiegeEntry



Run through the Oregon map taking out targets as you go - But be careful, they shoot back! Targets will spawn around corners, behind doors and hidden in hard to reach places - Your goal here is to move through the map as quickly as possible, clearing sightlines and progressing through the map as many times as you can before the timer hits zero.

SiegeC4Arcs



Like a shield mains nightmare - C4 will come flying at you from behind cover. Destroy the blocks before they can explode to score points!

SiegeCapacity



Designed to benchmark and stress test your short term memory - Targets of various colors will spawn and respawn, with one target changing color every wave. Pick the right target to progress! Bonus points are awarded the further you go without a miss - But note, as you do better, the number of targets spawning per wave will increase!

SiegeDetectionShot



Being able to pick out an enemy in a complex background is one of the fundamental skills of Rainbow Six Siege - This task aims to do just that. Small targets will spawn all around the room, blending in with the background - Your goal is to identify, then eliminate these targets as quickly as possible. Bonus points are awarded for destroying the target quickly.

SiegeAudiospatial45



A remix on our existing audiospatial mode - This task spawns 4 targets all around the player and has one of them play a noise. Your goal is to take out this target as quickly as possible to spawn the next set. The faster you kill the target - The more points you get. It’s that simple.

This patch we’ve added:

New
  • Added 5 new, R6S related tasks
  • Added a limited time R6S assessment system - Compare yourself against the pros!
  • Added a sharable Player Card highlighting your Aim Lab rank. Show it off on Twitter with #AimLabCombine

Fixed
  • Introduced some fixes to end of round tooltips
  • Fixed an issue causing outlines to be improperly set on uploaded crosshairs
  • Swapped out the home screen to highlight the new Rainbow Six Siege Event

Creator Studio Additions & Fixes
  • Fixed the player always defaulting to the same orientation, even if the player spawner has its angle changed
  • Fixed bots spawning and interacting with the scene before the round starts
  • Fixed the Bot Behavior panel being closed by default
  • Fixed level options not properly saving on newly created Creator Studio maps
  • Fixed an issue causing bots using the “Chasing” behaviour to move much faster than normal
  • Fixed hotkeys activating when typing into text boxes
  • Added a new “Rotation” behavior for all bot types
  • Added a new R6S template map - “Oregon”
  • Added a new “Tracking” behavior for targets, which will change the damage type to the same tracking damager used in tasks like Spheretrack, no longer requiring the player to fire
  • Added a new “Save As” feature for bots, allowing you to duplicate existing bots without overwriting the previous bot
  • Added some new modifiers for the “Fireball” behavior
  • Added the ability to rapidly switch between inspector tabs with the + and - Keys
  • Added chickens. Yes. Chickens.

Welcome to this week’s Creator Studio update! We have new & updated VALORANT templates, custom weapons, new bots and a community contest with G2 Esports with a prize pool of $4500! More info on each below!

Smart Bots

We have launched a new experimental bot type - Smart Bots. These bots behave a little more closely to what you might expect from a human player, dodging, roaming and reacting to the actions that you take. Currently, Smart Bots have 5 sets of overrides that you can choose from within the Creator Studio - Each of which has oodles of options to play around with.

We would love to hear any feedback that you might have on the new Smart Bots - And especially anything that you might want added, so be sure to reach out to us with any feedback you might have!

Custom Weapons in Creator Studio

Custom weapons are now fully supported within the Creator Studio - Including those that you have already made! This means that any custom weapons that you, or anybody else have put together within Aim Lab can be integrated and uploaded alongside your creations - Want to build a long range sniping course with actual projectiles? Go for it! Want to practice your Sova lineups on one of our VALORANT templates? Or maybe a gauntlet to practice your wingman shots? Now you can!

Bind Map



After many requests - VALORANT’s Bind map is now available as a Creator Studio template for all users and is ready for you to build your own scenarios from.

Haven updates

We have updated the Haven template to be more accurate and true to the original. These changes will apply retroactively to all maps created on the template - So don’t worry creators, you won’t have to lift a finger!


The G2 x Creator Studio contest



We’ve partnered up with G2 Esports to bring a new kind of contest to Aim Lab - A creative one! To enter, simply build a cool task, include their logo or emote in your creation & be in for a chance to win your share of $4500!! Once your task is created, be sure to tag your map with “Enter G2 Contest” before uploading to make sure you enter your creation properly - We’ve added a new button just for this.

The top six winners will receive $500 each, and the map that comes out on top of those six will receive a bonus of $1500! All creations will be judged live on Twitch by G2 Esports & their creators! More info here: https://g2esports.com/creator-studio/?r=EU

New Tracking Tasks!

This week’s update brings you 5 new tracking tasks, from reactive tracking to tasks focused purely on smoothness, this update brings something for everyone! Each task aims to highlight a different component of tracking to help you become the best tracker you can be!

Spheretrack90



A remix on the task you all know and love - Spheretrack90 plays very similarly to the normal Spheretrack, but with a catch, the target will always remain in front of the player!

This should no doubt help out those of you that found yourselves running out of mousepad space, but on top of this, the focus is shifted more towards accuracy over resetting your mouse. It will help you in practicing tracking engagements against enemies that are mostly in front of you, rather than moving all around you. Spheretrack90 is super useful for games like Apex Legends or Hyperscape, for targets that stay mostly in front of you, but that are quite dynamic.

Arctrack



A new task with a new Greybox variant - Arctrack has you tracking a target that moves in a plain circle in front of you, with relatively high consistency and predictability.

This task focuses more on general smoothness and predictive tracking over anything else, and applies more generally to the games you play, rather than being better suited to one or the other.

Startrack



A new favorite of mine personally, Startrack! It’s another smoothness based task in the same vein as Linetrace, with one key difference, instead of shooting two targets at the end of a tracking target you follow a target as it moves between "Ghost" targets. The combination of vertical and horizontal tracking enables you to better engage enemies with jumping abilities, such as an updrafting Jett or a Jump padding Octane.

Microstartrack



A variant of Startrack, Microstartrack combines reactivity and smoothness by spawning targets much closer together - Super hand for games with reactive targets like Overwatch, Warzone or Apex.

Reactivetrack



A new tracking task focused purely on reactive tracking - Face a target that changes direction rapidly and try your best to stay on target as much as possible. This task is pretty much perfect for those of you that have trouble dealing with enemies that change directions frequently, and should be a perfect fit for those looking to improve your performance against higher level opponents.

Other changes

  • Removed the Chinese New Year event from the lobby
  • Fixed some issues that may have caused crashes or slow downs on some users systems
  • Updated the app icon
  • Fix for ranking sometimes locking to "Bronze"
Aimlabs - JoshP
We recently put out EB 0.93 but had to roll back to the previous build, the update was causing the mouse cursor to not work for some users. If you were experiencing the issue before and could update to the previous build 0.92_HF2 and are no longer getting the issue and could let us know here it would be much appreciated.
Aimlabs - JoshP
Happy Chinese New Year from the Aim Lab Team! To celebrate we’ve added some special surprises to ensure extra good aim for you this year 🎯 The Year of the Ox skin for the 9mm is now available in-game - All for free! To equip it, simply select the 9mm and then select the "Chinese New Year" skin - It's that easy!

We are continuously updating the Creator Studio alongside core Aim Lab with new features, fixes and additional content coming just as frequently as you are used to.

  • Fixed "Health Regeneration" continuing to heal while damage is still being taken
  • Fixed "Waypoint Pathing" starting before the task begins
  • Fixed "DirChangeSpeed" being affected by frametime
