NEW

  • Game Suite (BETA) is a grid-based level builder plugin — choose from a large library of themed game assets, snap them into place on a 3D grid, and configure game rules, player behavior, and win conditions without writing code. Export your level as a scene or a fully playable Bitmoji-powered game.

  • AI Clips plugin enables creators to generate 5-second AI-powered videos by combining a user’s image with a unique embedded prompt. Each Lens transforms a single photo into a dynamic video experience based on its predefined creative concept.

  • Combine GenAI components with each other to build advanced Lenses! Learn how to use AI Portraits, Selfie Attachments, or Face Generator in powerful creative workflows.

  • VFX Multiple Outputs. A single VFX Asset can now contain multiple output nodes, each with its own render settings, allowing you to easily create new types of particle effects.

IMPROVEMENTS

  • Lens Component lifecycle processing (OnStart, Update, LateUpdate) has been optimized to be significantly faster. As part of this improvement, relative ordering between two Updates or two LateUpdates is no longer guaranteed.

  • Updated documentation for all deprecated APIs to point more clearly to their replacements.

  • Improved automatic font fallbacks on Windows.

BUGS FIXED

  • Fixed a Turn-Based bug preventing auto capture when scores contained a fractional part. The score is now rounded to the nearest integer.

  • Improved Character Controller ground detection, allowing it to be used at smaller scales and fixing a bug that prevented the character from jumping.

  • Fixed an issue where Text with Wrap + vertical Shrink might overflow the space it was given.

  • Fixed console.log/warn/error handling of %%
