Hello all, it's been a while since the last update, as you may found, in NavalArt's Steam Workshop page, there is a new category for mods, that means workshop integration for mods has finally been added to the game.

Mods don't work with v0.8, in order to make mods work, firstly you need to enable and download the 0.9 public beta, which can be found in your Steam inventory, right click on NavalArt, choose Properties - Betas - and select the beta branch.

Since mod support has been added in last year , a lot of nice and fun mods have been created by our active and supportive mod community, so I decided to bring it to workshop, make it easier for every player to share the enjoy of mods, and make the game a better naval sand box platform.

There isn't many mods in the workshop yet because, the upload function has only been opened for less than 24 hours, you may need to wait for a period before more high quality mods appear.



By default the mods are disabled, you need to enable it by using the Mods window in the game menu, and you will need to restart the game

To answer a more important question, when will aircraft carriers come? Well, as you can see below, a lot of new stuffs, like custom parts(subassemblies), rigging tool, a new armor system, huge optimizations, a smoother free camera for cinematic purpose are now avaliable in the game. The major program structure for aircraft carriers have also been nearly finished, along with a two missile launchers, they exists in code they are just not playable yet, I will started to work on finish that two system right after this article has been posted. So don't worry, the next version will come soon.
