WIP

Features & Improvements

• Unlock 4 new heads usable across both Nations At War and Frontlines!

» Unlock George ‘Muppet‘ Burton at Silver 3 (Rank 30)

» Unlock Albert ‘Jolly’ Saxton at Decorated 3 (Rank 60)

» Unlock Frank ‘Hammer’ Chapman at Valour 1 (Rank 65)

» Unlock Thomas ‘Shellshocked’ Baker at Decorated 2 (Rank 55)

• Introduced a new kill log icon to distinguish small cannonballs from the rest.

• Added better support for testing VoIP in the ‘Settings panel. These testing tools can be accessed while in-game or in the main menu.

SDK Version 6.0

• Bolstered the functionality of the SDK Character Editor.

» You are now able to rig heads and uniforms separately. Hats should be coupled with uniforms should you be utilising this new system.

» You are now able to set up a ‘CustomUniformDefinition’ allowing you to use existing Holdfast heads that are unlocked through progression. IE. You make your own custom uniform coupled with your desired hat as mentioned above then tick said option to use the Holdfast base game heads.

» You are now able to create mod packs which feature different heads. These can then be used by other mods.

» These new systems are backwards compatible with the old way of doing things (rigging heads and hats separately from the uniform). If a mod breaks please let us know in #bug-reports on our Discord.

• Introduced functionality allowing artisans to define a separate model when in first-person.

• In addition to having ‘uniform’ LODs, you are now able to create a specific ‘FirstPerson_x_LOD0’ that will be loaded only when using the first-person view mode for some crispy looks when in this mode - <Chef’s Kiss>.

• The artisan’s name now displays in-game when players have downloaded your modification. You can set this up in the ‘Mod Properties’ section under the ‘Creator’ category.

• The ‘Custom LOD’ script now properly works when players are looking through the spyglass.

• Introduced a new object for scripting ‘NoActionInteractableObjectModOverload’ so you can hook networked player-driven events.

• Introduced multiple new assets to the Holdfast SDK. This includes functions allowing players to spawn ships when interacting with an in-world object.
