Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades Update 120 Adds Universal Tripods

The first Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades update of 2026 introduces two new tripod utility items for long-range shooting alongside weapon fixes and Take & Hold cleanup improvements.

The first Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades build of 2026 is live on the experimental branch, bringing a heavily requested utility item and a batch of fixes for guns and Take & Hold mode.

New Utility Tripods

Update 120 introduces two items under utility items: Tripod Modern and Tripod M2 Style. Players can mount any gun or object to a deployed tripod to gain stability for long-range shooting. While mounted, firearms retain full functionality, recoil is totally controlled, and the game applies maxed-out position and rotation filtering.

Take & Hold Mode Adjustments

Take & Hold receives several targeted fixes. Auto cleanup systems now ignore all kinematically locked and pivotlocked objects. The breachspeed bonus is fixed. Additionally, the G12 and L85A3 now properly spawn with sights, and a metadata connection issue has been resolved.

Weapon and Gear Fixes

The EM-2 magazine capacity is corrected to 20 rounds. Fallingblock weapons can now be loaded properly in all circumstances. Other fixes address STX357 crane alignment, G12 C77 bolthead clipping, 520 Hammerless geometry holes, RMR mount height offsets on the VRZ 1-6x24mm scope, CQB870 magazine bottom geometry, HM Flare Launcher magazine functionality, and a smoke emitter error on the Decoy Grenade.

Why this patch matters

Update 120 gives long-range rifle shooters a stability tool while resolving persistent geometry, loadout, and mode-specific bugs in Take & Hold.
