@DevSlashNulled Good Luck! Hope it all goes well!

@KweebecCorner What emotes are you most looking forward to?

[Riven Realms @Riven_Realms]

Emotes are going to be such a fun addition to Riven

[Mew @MewSoul]

Emotes are coming to Hytale with this week's pre-release update, including easy mod support!

Here's the mod structure to add emotes to the game:
- Place your emote animation (.blockyanim) in Common\Characters\Animations\Emote\
- Place your emote icon (.png) in Common\Icons\Emotes\
- Create your emote config (.json) in Server\Emote\ (replace "MyEmoteName" with the name of your new emote)

An emote config looks like the following:
{
"Animation": "Characters/Animations/Emote/MyEmoteName.blockyanim",
"Name": "My Emote Name",
"Icon": "Icons/Emotes/MyEmoteName.png",
"IsLooping": true
}

With that done, you'll now be able to see your emotes in-game!

In the future, we'll improve the emote wheel so you can customize it.

@MewSoul Can’t wait to see all the awesome emotes everyone comes up with!

[Riven Realms @Riven_Realms]

Very excited for taming horses!

Pre-Release Patch Notes (Feb 11, 2026)
Update 3 (Part 3 of 3)
Enable via Launcher → Settings → Pre-Release

The release of Update 3, including its 3 parts, is scheduled for next week!

HEADLINE FEATURES
- Added a very basic, early version of taming! Some of the friendlier animals you find in your adventures can now be tamed, provided you have their favourite food in hand!
- Tamed animals can be petted with an empty hand and fed once in a while - some of them can also be milked, sheared, or mounted!
- Tamed animals won't run away from players (unless they’re hit), and will occasionally greet them.
- Added Sickles, capable of harvesting multiple crops in a single swing.
- Updated climbing, enabling side-stepping, dropping down, and rotating around ropes.
- Added an Anchor UI system, enabling server plugins to add UI elements to client pages, such as the world map. This will allow modders to insert into various predefined points as we add them.
- Brazilian-Portuguese and Russian have been added as our first new in-game language options, kicking off the first phase of our localization efforts. Additional languages will be introduced in the coming weeks.

CONTENT

- Added a new debug flag, VisFlock, enabling visualization of flock membership and structure.
- Updated packet handlers for builder tools to utilize the World packet handler for world-specific packets.
- Renamed light radius to bright radius and set the default to 1 so that light color is maintained.
