Walker Plus 1.0.0 — First Release Is Here!


Walker Plus has officially launched on S&Box! Our first release, version 1.0.0, is packed with new features, quality-of-life improvements, and a hefty batch of multiplayer fixes. Check out the video below to see everything in action.

Swap Between Human and Hotdog — Anytime, Anywhere


The headline feature of this release is real-time model swapping. Press H at any moment to switch between the Human and Hotdog models — yes, even while flying around in Freecam. A model selector has also been added directly to the Freecam menu, and you'll get a handy local notification (Switched to Human / Switched to Hotdog) every time you swap, so you always know which skin you're wearing.

Freecam Gets a Major Upgrade


Freecam is now a proper cinematic tool:
  • Independent animation pausing — freeze your own character and other players separately.
  • Animation-speed sliders — control your character and everyone else independently, anywhere from fully paused up to 2× speed.
  • Depth of Field controls — dial in that perfect cinematic shot, alongside the existing camera smoothing options.
We've also smoothed out the Freecam experience overall. Your character now stops moving the moment you enter Freecam instead of sprinting off into the distance without you. Holding TAB in Freecam opens the Freecam controls while keeping the scoreboard hidden until you leave, and exiting Freecam automatically restores any animation speeds you changed.

Better Lobbies, Better Chat


Hosted lobbies are now named Walker Plus, and we've enabled the platform chat UI with a 255-character message limit — so you can actually talk to the people you're hotdogging around with.

Multiplayer Fixes and Stability


This release also tackles some of the biggest multiplayer pain points:

  • Fixed the host freezing every player when using Freecam.
  • Lobbies now transfer to the best available host instead of disbanding when the host leaves.
  • Lobby capacity increased to 64 players.
  • Network tick rate set to 30 for smoother play.
  • Players who fall out of bounds now die properly — or safely return to a spawn point if God Mode is on.
  • Kill-count tracking has been fixed.
  • Improved authority checks across the board: respawning, fall damage, Noclip, God Mode, flashlight state, and player statistics.
