Will there be any new rendering capabilities?
Examples:
Hello hello! I know there are plans to rework groups “from the ground up” and was wondering if you all could provide any more information on what this entails?
I currently am the owner of a group that holds all the experiences I’ve created. I’d like to have more granular control on which developers can interact with the places under the group. Right now I have to give developers access to all the places under the group if for example they want to upload an animation to it. There’s also the issue with distributing group funds, is there plans to add the ability to distribute group funds based on an experience and not the entire group funds?
The overall idea would be to treat groups like organizations, and within these organizations could have “groups” that have finer control over experiences. This prevents having to create a new group per project which in return then allows you to grow a centralized fan base in one organization rather than having them spread apart against a lot of different organizations.
This is an area I have always felt was lacking and am excited to hear if any of these changes are planned or are being implemented!
Not directly related to the announcements made at RDC, but are there any plans to improve on the universal client? Since it’s release 80% of the client is still just a browser pop-up & the performance leaves a lot to be desired.
Hello again,
As of now, the Export Selection in Studio only allows you to export as a .obj file. Will there ever be support to export as other formats, such as .fbx and .glTF?
Thank you.
Will there ever be better tools to debug memory leaks? What we have currently is semi-decent, but I’d love more in-depth tools such as origins or objects that take up a lot of memory.
Will we ever get official support for control over the avatar editor backgrounds and VR home enviroment? Currently it’s unoffically possible by tinkering and swapping the mobile.rbxl and the file responsible for the home enviroment. I gave it a try and it looks pretty cool, the only downside that the skybox outside is theme-colored alongside with a thick fog.
I’m ranking my questions based on priority now, so here’s another:
How much of a priority is it to improve Hyperion to patch more exploits which lead to executors/injectors continuing to work? Right now, even after the 64-bit client, anti cheat is still a high priority because of people using injectors, mainly via the UWP app.
I’ve seen that Roblox is adding a new feature for webcam upper body tracking and has recently launched on the Meta Quest. Will there be any future plans for Roblox to support full body tracking for VR?
Actually, the UWP application does have Hyperion inside of it (quite a long time ago). I’m not going into the specifics but currently no exploit executors/injectors are working (from my own knowledge).
Will we ever have API access to AI?
This one is more out there, but I’d figure I’d ask anyway.
Examples:
I have four questions.
At RDC and an investor’s call, something was mentioned about clothing designing changing on the platform. Rather than it being done with a flat template and being overlayed as a texture like the current way to do 2D clothing, you would paint a texture over a layered clothing mesh. What exactly does that entail?
Will the ability to customize studio icons entirely be possible in the near future? I asked this in the previous AMA but didn’t get an answer.
Why can’t we view sales on our assets through the dashboard, and why is the ability to view sales through the API removed?
What happened to expanding the UGC program for classic, 2D faces? When UGC was first announced, we were told that this would happen? But based on this statement regarding the release of UGC faces, I am not entirely sure.
first, thanks for the question. to clarify, at any age, you can verify your account using your email address or phone number. for ID verification, we do require users to be 13+, and some features, such as video upload, are currently limited to 13+ users. more about age verification can be found here.
Hey EuropoorSimulator!
Thanks for sharing your questions. To ensure we’re engaging with as many creators as possible we ask that everyone keep to one question per message. Can you reduce or consolidate? Thanks so much!
I can confirm exploit reports in my game are down by a lot, the last reported exploit was 9/11, nothing since then. I used to get at lest 4 a day.
right now models and plugins are the assets most used by our community in Creator Marketplace, and we believe they have the highest potential for earning for our creators today. currently, the plan is to expand Creator Marketplace to allow selling of models in addition to plug-ins.
we are always looking to expand the ways creators can earn, so we are considering other asset types in the future. some of these may have significant IP hurdles that would need to be addressed, so we are not supporting those yet.
as mentioned in my response to YasuYoshida, we’re not yet ready to support selling other asset types beyond models and packages, but are certainly looking into it!
Will there be different graphics settings for the ROBLOX client? Currently, the client only has a single 1-10 bar to adjust graphics, which doesn’t give players a lot of room to adjust certain aspects about the performance of the game. I’d love to see different options such as effects, post-processing, rendering distance (up to developer StreamingMaxDistance), anti-aliasing, shadow quality, and a lot more.
Will we see more tools to improve testing in Studio?
Examples:
I had asked this in the previous one but it got locked.
Whats in the pipeline regarding plugin functionality, one feature I’ve been requesting for a few months now is deeper access to the underlying analysis tooling (AST tokens etc.) to make reading script behaviour and shape easier.
Hi Nick and Tian!
First of all, thanks for staying transparent with the community. You’re absolute legends for doing so.
I asked this during the last AMA but it was never answered.
As someone who works with translations in my work, the manual localization tools are very lackluster and broken at best. It has forced us to move entirely off-Roblox with localization and utilize the downloadable .csv file.
While that has its ups and downs, will we see improvements coming to the Translator Portal?
Right now, the translator portal just outright rejects any and all strings that trigger the filters without telling us what exactly has been filtered out, nothing distinguishes the AI translations from manual ones at a glance and there are a few other QOL things that the portal desperately needs (made a devforum post about it in Nov '21 and there are still no changes, hell the new localization portal made some of the highlighted issues worse.).
Roblox pushes for connecting the world pretty heavily but looks to have dumped the translators somewhere on the road there and isn’t looking at us at all. I hope to hear from you guys about this
