[strike]Gain early access to the new Steam Workshop integration and modding features by joining the following Steam group: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/carrion-workshop-tests[/strike]
[strike]The new Carrion build is now available in the beta branch on Steam (no passphrase needed) and gets new updates frequently.[/strike]
The Workshop is now LIVE!
New features include:
- Streamlined and safer mod loading - each mod is a self-contained hermetic package stored in a single folder and doesn't require hacking/changing the base game's resources. When the game loads a mod, it prioritizes loading the mod's resources over the base game's ones, falling back to the original assets only if necessary.
- Save files stored separately for each mod allowing for fail-safe experimentation.
- In-game mod browser - subscribe to Workshop items or unzip the mods into a "UserContent" folder to make them visible in the game!
- User-Generated Content Toolkit shipped alongside the game's binary.
- Basic Lua integration - makes it possible to add new functionality or load extra assets (check out the Streaming Avatar mod: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2252217602).
...and more to come!
