Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades Update 120 Experimental 21 Adds Photo Studio

H3VR Update 120 Experimental versions 20 and 21 are live, introducing the Photo Studio scene, H3VR Studio tools, and Take & Hold fixes.

Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades has pushed Update 120 Experimental 20 and 21 to the experimental branch, rolling out Steam Workshop support alongside new tools and environments.

New Scenes and Tools

A Photo Studio scene is now available, featuring Sosig Holo Capture and photo backdrop options. Alongside this, the new H3VR Studio app is accessible in the Steam tools section, accompanied by a work-in-progress data validation system designed to catch errors in custom Take & Hold characters before loading.

Gameplay and Take & Hold Fixes

The Take & Hold Rampart map issue has finally been resolved, and custom object table icons now display properly in the Object Constructor. Holographic displays for Take & Hold characters remain a work in progress.

Visuals, Audio, and Spectator Controls

Screenshot functionality now permits aspect ratio and resolution selection. Global spectator camera settings can now be saved and loaded via profiles. Additionally, fixes resolved an exotic Object Constructor issue where central options lacked active selections, restored a missing safety sound to the SoundCheck Pistol, and corrected an errant suppressor reference on the Rosie.

Why this patch matters

This experimental drop stabilizes the newly enabled Steam Workshop pipeline while introducing useful asset creation tools and fixing long-standing map bugs.
