Hey editors!

We've temporarily enabled our wiki holiday theme. The theme will last until early/mid January, when we will revert to our previous theme.

Changes:

• Background changed to a house (using Future is Bright) with a snowy effect.
• Wordmark has a dark blue outline.
• Buttons, the nav bar, and other UIs have changed from their red color to blue.
• Transparency changed slightly.

Enjoy!

Hey everyone! I'm sure you've heard of the Roblox Interwiki, but if you haven't, here's a quick explanation. The Roblox Interwiki is a connected network of wikis all pertaining to games on the Roblox platform. Led by Ender01 (Ender#4355), 1011025m (1011025m#2176) and myself (Thundy#2018), we have over 50 wikis who are now a part of us, and over 50 of the staff members of those wikis are with us under the Interwiki Staff category in the Roblox Wikia and Interwiki discord server.

Why do I mention this? 1011025m, Ender and I have put together 2018's vote for the best Roblox-Based Wikia. The vote includes *almost* all of the interwiki wikis. We are asking for all of you to help us vote for the top wiki who will win the 2018 Roblox Wiki of…

Hi everyone, and especially devs! Recently Roblox has announced that the first phase of Future is Bright (new, better lighting) is now available for beta testing in Studio. This brings the new voxel lighting.

If you're unaware, Future is Bright is a new, more detailed lighting system for Roblox.

This is only to test, so it'll only work in Studio, and not in Roblox Player. You can enable it at Lighting > Technology > "Voxel". Legacy is the current lighting system.

Slight appearance tweaks may happen over the next few weeks as they fine-tune it and rid of bugs. Remember to report bugs if you find them.

Hey everyone.

As of this announcement, we are now getting developer feedback such as interviews, quotes, etc from developers. We wanted to take the time to get your favorite notable games (i.e. games that are on the wiki) and the developers behind them.

Please, if you have any games that you really enjoy that have not yet been added to the DCP Status List, please leave the game URL in the comments so we can reach out to the developers.

Thanks!

Hey everyone!

Today Roblox made an update to all games marked as Experimental Mode not be playable by users who are not friends with the creator. This update was made for the safety of all users. Games marked as experimental can still be played by

• The game owner
• Any friends of the game owner

If you no longer have access to a game, that means the game has experimental mode on and you need to befriend the owner in order to play.

When experimental mode is turned on, all clients have the ability to do whatever they want to the game, which is what makes it unsafe. When experimental mode is off, clients can only do what the game developer allows them to do, with a few exceptions. To turn experimental mode off in your game, do the following steps. …
