In this update, we've improved our internal systems and processes, as well as added new features, improvements, and bug fixes.

Update Highlights

🖥️ Improved: Server Hub

As we continue to focus on providing a smoother experience for server hub users, we've improved performance once again as well as our build workflow, allowing us to make even greater and stable changes to the hub.

~ ⚙️ Settings Improvements

We've completely changed the layout of the settings page, allowing users to navigate it much more easily.

It now features a sidebar containing all the categories as well as the number of settings in each of them. There's even new switches that have replaced the old toggle elements for toggleable settings.

~ 🖌️ New Animations & Theme

There are new animations when switching between pages of the server hub, which is a nice gesture that makes the hub feel more alive and reactive.

We've also cleaned up the theme and made the hub easier and better to look at and understand.

📛 New Store Packages: Special Tags

We've added a new category to our store that contains special chat tags. These special tags are seasonal tags that can only ever be purchased while they are available on the store, and after purchasing one, you get to keep it forever.

We're also doing monthly releases of new tags (such as Yapper) that are only available for a limited time. All supporters can access the #update-previews channel in our Discord to find out when they go live on the store.

🎨 New Feature: Neon Animation Studio

This new feature allows you to create your own fully-custom vehicle neon animations and share them with other players.

You can access it through the shortcuts card of the server hub dashboard (F1).
Only available to Ultimate supporters.

🙈 Improved: Appeals

We've added support for appealing mutes and warnings and any punishment can now be appealed hassle-free by just opening a ticket and selecting which punishment you want to appeal from a dropdown.

You no longer need to copy or painfully type any punishment IDs.

⭕ New Feature: Community Zones

Earlier this month, we had our very first official in-game community event organised by community members (the Infinity Festival). For this, we implemented a new type of zone that can be used in future events hosted and organised by loyal members of our community.

The zones inherit all features of passive zones, and have a unique icon and blip information on the map (including a custom image).

🛒 Improved: Store Purchases

We've significantly improved the way that your store purchases are retrieved and made it so that as soon as you purchase a new package the changes are reflected on the servers immediately.

This was implemented alongside the launch of special tags to allow you to purchase a tag and instantly receive it in-game.

This hasn't been tested with supporter subscriptions so you may need to reconnect for those to fully apply.

🚗 New Content: Vehicles

In this update, we've added 47 new vehicles for you to use in-game. As per usual, we've also gone ahead and applied fixes to existing vehicles that ensures balancing and fairness for PvP use.

We're constantly improving our content workflow, optimising things as we go along, and fixing existing content that may not be shown below.

  • This is a temporary fix and does not prevent them from hearing you. You'll be unable to hear them, but they will be able to hear you.
  • We're working on refactoring this feature for a future update to resolve a lot of problems that we've come across since it was first implemented.
• Fixed an external issue that caused the default player avatars to not load in the loading screen and server hub interfaces (by @nex)

Aside from these changes, we're also working on improving our moderation tools to take better and more informed actions towards consistently toxic behaviour (including cheating). More will be revealed about this in the next community update.

Thank you for playing on our servers, and we look forward to publishing another update log soon :)
Good luck and have fun!
