Holiday greetings from UGX-Mods-Team.:christmas_tree::snowman:
Hopefully you gathered enough RAM and GPU before the big bang - crazy times, huh? We wish everyone some stressless days, good food and a great time. See you all in the new year
A quick update on the major update mentioned in the last news:
Unfortunately faced some hardware issues and I also had a few other major time consuming events. I'm almost fully back on track and I'm optimistic for an early 2026 release. More on this soon.
No matter if you like it or not, today is the spooky day :ghost:
I really tried to get the major update out by today, but unfortunately private and technical issues said no. Therefore I'll just make it short and hint a bit on what is coming soon:
Introduction of MapManager²
That’s probably a surprise, but I’ll share more details once the beta version is out. Technically, it’s a complete rewrite of the old Map Manager with some exciting new additions.
Donators will get early access to the first beta, so if you’re a donor (status not available anymore), be sure to check the donor room on Discord.
A new way to find Custom Maps
The next update introduces a new custom maps section, where all released maps on our forum are available. You can quickly filter and find maps, get a random map or add, manage and even share your personal custom map collections.
Next Forum Update
There will be a new forum update, which reworks various parts and should improve the user experience, especially the profile section got some love. E-Mail templates have been reworked, Mobile (Push) Notifications will be available and a few systems have been reworked.
Monetization
It will be possible to support us/me financially again. This took way longer than I anticipated, but I always wanted to provide value first before accepting money. With this update, I think the time has come to open the option to fund and support this project
I can’t wait for this to be available... it was a lot of work. Most likely will hit mid November unless I face more technical challanges again :sweat_smile:
