Transparent Images get a pink background!

This seems to be quite new (if I'm wrong do say) it will only show on the develop page and not when you click the asset itself. This will be quite interesting and maybe gives a possible insight to a new moderating approach instead of instantly deleting any small white transparent images which was a pain in the ass.

Roblox gets localization tools

In-case you're living under a rock and missed it the loczalization tools were launched earlier.

This will be helpful for games that have players from different countries (like Spanish, French etc)

Notes / Limitations
There are a few things you need to be aware of when using the localization tools:

If you have text within an image, embedded and exported as part of the image from your image editing application, Studio can't translate that for you. In cases like this, a better approach would be to use a background image and then apply a GUI text object on top so the localization system can translate it. Otherwise you’ll have to make a different image for each locale and swap out the image asset with a script.

At this time, the localization plugin only supports Spanish playtesting.

The Roblox platform currently supports only English and Spanish for language detection, user account settings, and customer support, but we're actively working on introducing support for other languages.

The methods discussed in this tutorial can be used for almost any language, so don't let us stop you from getting ahead of the game!

If you're doing fancy text operations like a typewriter effect where text is added one character at a time, the text scraper and text replacement system won't work very well. You might have to enter the text into the tables yourself and look up translations in scripts.

So currently, it will only support Spanish by default but the framework can support other langauges if you wanted to research and work it all out.

RDC 2018

Freggy — Wed, 14 Feb 2018 16:29:28 +0000

A day late but the RDC for 2018 was announced yesterday, you can find the thread here[devforum.roblox.com]

You can find the dandy RDC discord server that got recycled again from the RDC hype server into a server for all things RDC from Younite here[discord.gg] an important note about RDC this year is that being in RBX Dev doesn't automatically guarantee you a ticket as with previous years. Invites this year, will be subject to a moderation review process.

Originally posted by Nightgaladeld:
Initial invites will be sent out in the next couple of weeks to those in the Developer Forum who passed the moderation review process. This process usually involves a manual review from a DevRel employee that checks if you had any recent moderation history in regards to anything serious such as harassment or other serious moderation actions to ensure the developer is clear for an invite

#NetNeutrality lost for now?

Freggy — Thu, 14 Dec 2017 21:15:33 +0000

Hope everyone is having a good holiday festive season I wanted to make this announcement, despite residing in the U.K to remind those RBX Dev members that live in the U.S to strongly vote/take action for net neutrality.

I've included some good reading material on the subject and I wish the best for everyone and hope for the best results in protecting the internet - not paying £5 more to access ROBLOX/Steam

I've read that currently "FCC just killed Net Neutrality" is the latest which isn't good.
