Latest Steam announcements
- R2.4 - 15 April 2026
Various fixes and improvements, but mainly : SC2 – Rampart • The fissure now originates from "deep underground", not just a surface point ! and you can now "draw" the crack like in SC1 ! • New popup menu for quick tools access 🙂 • Instant "Lava into Rock" function ! • Map Export / Import (finally !!) • Small gas / explosion effects pushing particles and fluids :) • Added some vegetation (small bushes) on cliffs (not much on its own, but it opens the door to many more objects. I'm currently modeling things like a car you can drop into the scene for scale reference ^^) ⚠️ Note on exports : This is still a prototype, map export works, but : - Some rendering properties may be altered (specular variations, etc..) - Source properties are not exported yet (I’ll improve this in future updates, but I really wanted to release this version ..) (I originally planned it for January .. 😅) That said…
