Texture Generation now goes beyond color. Quality mode, now in beta, generates 4K PBR textures with color, roughness, and metalness maps right in Studio. Link below.
Package Overrides, first shown at RDC, is now in Studio Beta. Now you can edit a package in your place, like repainting a car, and keep the link so updates to the source package still come through.
Our In-Experience Creation tools are getting a new addition, makeup. Let players design their own looks in real time, like applying makeup in front of a mirror, and save them to their inventory.
Safely removing build and publish friction for creators is a top priority for us. We just rolled out a simpler path to publish, including early tester access so you can invite up to 10 friends to preview your game before going live.
Today, Roblox announced that they were making publishing games easier on the platform.
I asked Roblox Director of Product Jim Meenan some additional questions creators may have about these changes. Read below! 👇

We sat down with @Repotted_ , the dev behind the hit game, Illegal Soccer, to get some of the secret sauce for making successful Roblox games. Here’s some tips, thoughts and behind-the-scenes shots, straight from the dev! 🧵
5️⃣ “With Illegal Soccer, we really leaned into the absurdity of it (shooting someone & using all sorts of items in a soccer game) while keeping genuine mechanical depth & incentivizing teamwork. But the right answer will be different for every game. It should be your goal to find out what that is for you.”
