Just a thank you,i had a lot problems creating my rec room game because didn’t understand almost anything in the maker pen and i was struggling to make a perfect 90 degree cube,just thank you.
glad it helped thanks for watching:)
The new menu is kinda hard to get used to when you’ve been building for a while
definitely agree, i mainly just dealt with circuits but still its a huge adjustment
@@theRCLman like maybe rec room could’ve just done it one part of the menu at a time instead of immediately changing it all at once?
Yeah I hopped on rec room didn’t use the maker pen that much then I saw the new menu I was like well this is new lol
@@Cosmic__Edits lol
Omg i had no idea where inventions were thanks
no problem :)
Wow, so many important things for beginners, which I am, thank you so so much, specially in 2023. ;)
😆at least most of it still applies
I have a tutorial suggest: it's a trigger handle that can summon things on the ground or comes from the ground where the player wants it to for example a spike that comes out of the ground
ohhh that would be cool, ima look into this,100% doable really just depends on the yt data
This is awesome. Thanks! A UI change on most things is annoying for OG's but As a complete noob the UI change doesn't bother me.
understandable hopefully this video still helped, looking back i think i made it kinda assuming someone watching was familiar with the old one, not thinking that yeah ppl would come to it having never seen the old one
@@theRCLman Super Helpful. Your style of teaching is one of the best I've encountered.
This definitely helps. Thanks bro.
glad it helped, thanks for watching :)
Thanks a lot thank you have a nice day
you to :)
Thx this really helped
Glad it helped thanks for watching:)
Holy you're life saver
Glad it helps
Thank you
Thanks for watching:)
I have a tutorial suggestion as well, jump scare, I can't find any good tutorials on them, they all have the animation gizmo just telport a monster up in a set place, I want a monster/ai that follows you and when it gets you it plays a jump scare in front of your screen even if you move away or try to look away, I have no clue where to even start to try make it.
sounds like you might need the camera position vector chip thing, never used it but ill at least look no guarantees
I didn't know about the double page ty
np glad you got something from the video, thank you for watching :)
Thanks or the help :)
thanks for watching :)
Only is a opinion with maker pin well is the bred new one they update access allow theam old ones allready took it out bit now i get it doing at menu thing
the tear away is a cool concept but its still kinda hard to work with
I've had a question how do you spawn inventions like I'm trying to spawn inventions and download them and I can't find the
Do u know how to fix the way how to control the way the tube comes out like it’s only a straight line I want it to go how I want it to
i am not super familiar with tubes all i know is with tubes selected check out the setting on the right side of tools tab
Yes
remember how you could make shapes have different amounts of sides with the old makerpen? is there a way to do that with the new one? im trying to make a shop for a clothing brand i want to launch in rec room once they make custom shirts sellable but this is holding me back from making key parts of the shop
Maybe in general setting on the right side of the tool page, or maybe one of the other drop downs on that right side, might have to switch snapping on the top? Maybe try manipulate also
I hate the update but this tutorial made it a bit more bearable thank you very much
I’ll compare something I built with this menu to something I built with the old one
glad it made it abit easier on you, hopefully with time it will get better
For some reason the shapes do not come out the the end on the maker pen but on the surface that I point it on how do I change that?
Got to tools page, on top you see a slider for snapping, slide to laft for none, rught for grid, and center for surface
For some reason it wont show my pallette on my maker pen so i cant spawn inventions and i have done everything do you know how to fix?
Thats very strange, if you can't fix you mught need to make a bug report to rr
How can I reset my maker pen settings (I can’t build anything right now)
I have a tutorial suggestion Maybe a few people want the maker pen tube to be smooth like it used to be? I think that would very good to have it smooth like it used to be
Man i need to learn tube, im ok at circuits but know very little about making stuff, if i learn i will try :)
Amazing Video! It really helped a lot! I'm trying to make an AI Wave survival but no matter how hard I look and all the tutorials I watch I cant find the Spawner Gadget. I don't know if they changed the name or I'm just missing something. Any help would be very appreciated!
Its in beta content go into settings and enable beta content
@@theRCLman ok thank you!
Thank you❤but I have one question what happens if you use alll your ink this happened to me and people say to delete stuff but I like everything that’s there😢
configure each item that you don't want to hit to decoration, merge shapes also
Can u do a video of how to make a outline I been trying since the update came ou
ohhh thats a good idea, i can't garantee it but ill look into it atleast
How do you stick stuff on the wall like how you see the weapons in some quest games?
hmmm i'm not sure maybe they have something they are hanging on or maybe they are set to sticky but i dont think we can make weapons sticky
Hello, I don’t know if you ate still answering this but. In this update can you now cut objects with other objects?
im not quite sure what you mean but cutting but i think the answer is no lol
For some reason I can't get the number to change in the animation gizmo is there a way to do that
try configuring it?
How do you access the tube settings menu? I’ve been trying to activate the fixed tube width setting
Go into shapes and select tubes, then go to tools and there should be a tube setting menu on the right side
Man I miss the old maker pen like a 1 year ago
True
Hey , how do i draw , i dptn want to make fixed shapes i wanr to draw but it wont let me
Try tubes shape in the pallet
How do I go through stuff I made with the maker pen? I want to be able through something I’m making.
not quite sure what you mean, like how do you get your inventions, or how do you fly through it so you can keep editing it?
How do u open the maker pen tho that's what i am trying to figure out do u have to do it in ur dorm or what
to open maker pen just point the top part of it at your face and it should open
How would I configure the gadget cause now I don’t know how to make animation or anything like that I do the same step but now I don’t know how to get to the animation page it happen on the other gadgets too like the piston is there a page for it or a thing I’m missing?
to configure you now go to the tools page and hit configure on the top right of the left side then click on the thing you want to configure, if nothing pops up you may have to go to the configure page on the bottom of the maker pen. as for the animation gizmo, go to tools and hit edit on the top right then click on the gizmo and next time you look at the tool menu you should see the animation stuff, all animations buttons are the same as they used to be
@@theRCLman omg ty so much I can finally do so much things now
@@Herbert07172 glad to help :)
Hope you start your stream soon!

Hey RCL nice to see you again I have another suggestion I’m working on a big hands VR game and I wanna make it so you can grab people with a giant hands have any ideas on how to make this work been struggling for days :(
i've never tried tried , i will look into it but no guarantees
@@theRCLman of course I’ve discovered it’s not an easy feet of just clamps animations and trigger volumes that stick you to the chair for some reason they don’t work when clamped
How do you make a wall/object have no collision "like for a secret room or something"
Configure the object and make it decoration i think. Either decoration or environment one of those 2 i can't remember which is right
How do you make it so that make your pen object spawnon the tip of your pen
On the top of the tool menu adjust the snapping slide all the way to the left
may you please do a tutorial on how to save progress? i am making a rpg with a group of friends and my current idea is to use keys or consumables, but i have no idea how to do that.. thanks!! (save progress as in when you beat a level, it saves your progress and unlocks the next for eternity)
Ok so this is cloud variables, ill have to make a vid, but if you configure a variable like an int variable and make it cloud, it is saved when you leave the room and ia the same when you come back, this is saved for every individual person
@@theRCLman thank you!! :DD
So my "make invention button isn't working. Anyone know if theres a bug with it or something?
are you in a room with beta content enabled?
hey bro do you know how to move an already placed invention in your dorm? like wall art or something, i want to set it down on my wall but it goes behind my wall
you may have to unfreeze it before you move it
@@theRCLman thanks man
@@clevermia8709 np :)
How do i go to the store on play station bc i cant find it?
on ps5 i hit triangle and it brings up store search
hey i have been have problems when i try to move anything it rotates it.
Make sure when you move it that you are only moving it buy the green red and blue lines, there may also be a general setting on the right side of tools but im not sure
Hi I have a question, if you know the game cooking madness, I want to make something similar called “Cafe Rush” where basically customers come up to you and ask for an order so the players can serve them. How do I do that?
i want to help but idk how to begin explaining it lol, i think those games are mostly trigger volumes checking if an item is in them with a certain tag
@@theRCLman It’s fine I’ve decided to make a theme park instead but thank you so much!
Can u do tube settings pls
How do you change the time of day with the new update
Last i checked, open watch go to this room,go to settings, go to subrooms, click current subroom settings icon, scroll down till you see premade times of day. You can also use skydome chips as well
Question, how do make an object have more than 1 animation, for example, your making an enemy and you want a walking animation, and an attack animation, how would you do that
hmmmm i have never tried to hook an object to mulktiple animates i don't think it will work but i will try it
@@theRCLmanI figured it out after I commented this, you must make it so when you wanna make it stop, the player goes into a trigger volume which stop animation 1 and starts animation 2, when you want animation 1 to start again, make it to where the animation starts when another trigger volume touches the player, and stops animation 2. It's very simple apparently
I am gonna try this, thanks :)
So when I select items in rec room the green box moves instead of being straight it would be angled how do I fix this?
Hmmm that actually sound like a bug im not sure you might have to wait on an update or send in a support ticket on their website
@@theRCLman it's when I select also when I rotate something the hallow box doesn't move it stays ether straight or angled
How do I use a button to do something
How do you edit stuff how did you how did you get on that
top left should have an edit button, click on it then click on object with maker epn
Is there a way to de-select stuff? Cos for some damn reason, when I was making a funko pop, the ribbons I was screwing around with in the background to test things out before I actually slap it onto the thing got clipped onto the funko pop, so now whenever I try to delete the test ribbons, the funko itself also gets deleted.
So i f you hit wdit on the funko the while in edit mode select the stuff you dont want, then a little menu should pop up that says options click that then click split shapes, they should no longer be a part of the funko
@@theRCLman I see. Thanks a lot!
Np
ok i have been trying rec room for a few days and im wondering why when i try placing a object it doesn't appear nor place why is this?
hmmmm is it possible you have snapping set to like 100?
@@theRCLman fixed tysm
THANK YOU
I used to make games and props all the time and I can finally learn how to use it 😭
glad to help
One more question is the psvr a good vr to play rec room on?
Yes, its not the best but if its what you got its good enough, i played it for anout 1.5 yrs before i got a quest
Ok thank u
@@FroztPlayz the quality is very bad, although i have never seen what the quality is on any other vr but psvr, everything looks very fuzzy and i imagine its way better on quest, also the psvr motion controllers make you less emerssed in the game as it feels like youre holding sticks in your hands rather than with quest how they have controllers that fit onto your hand and make you feel more in touch with the game
Hey I'm trying to make a place to hangout with friends how do you change the background for your world? I've seen many places do so but can't figure out how
Like the colors of the sky? I think this will help, its a little old but i think everythings nearly the same th-cam.com/video/khOJjSRL0XM/w-d-xo.html
@@theRCLman Hey at 1:23 im from ps4 and i cant find this pin, how can i do?
@@kallmekarma8888 it only shows up after you tear out the page, with the little arrow at the bottom
How do you connect multiple items together?
depends on the item sometimes yes most of the time no
How do you connect parts and hold parts?
not sure exactly what you mean
If I wanted to make a game like find the markers from Roblox, is there a way I can make a collection system showing which markers you have and don’t have, and if so is there a way I could put a GUI in the game, like with a costume or something with a clickable button to show which markers you do and don’t have? I’m recreating find the markers btw lol. Also, if you could at some point, I don’t have a pc to add music to the game, but I need the find the markers soundtrack, so if you could, could you maybe help me out if you have a pc 😀
i am fairly certain you are trying to use the ui chips to display that or subtitle chips but i've only use those once (that might make a good vid actually just the ui chips)
@@theRCLman that would be a good vid lol
How do you change the physics mode of the objects? To make it decoration and save space.
Hit configure, then click on the maker pen ou bjext thwn go to thw configure tab( should be automatic on your maker pen) then it ahouls bw the first option
@@theRCLman I don’t see it. Could you please tell me more information about it if possible?
Open maker pen. Hit tools on the bottom then hit the configure button up above ( i think its under the redo button) Click on the object you want to change by pointing the maker pen at it and pulling the trigger. Then open maker pen again and click the configure on the bottom then you should see the option.
How to I get the tools menu mine doesn’t do it I press my pen pick it up and I just get a big orange block
sounds like your game might be glitched
@@theRCLman thank you a friend helped me it's fixed now
I’ve almost mastered maker pen. I just went here because I wanted to know what worldspace was
It changes how you move things like moving thinga in world space will move stuff on the zyand z axis of the room, where as if its off you move on the x y and z axis if the actual object itself
@@theRCLman had a lil hard time reading the typos but yea now I still have more questions about the maker pen like where did align go or where did align to edges go but other than that. You’re a great teacher RCL
@@pluralraccoon2187 go to tools on the top go to the snapping bar and pick surface, i think thats what your looking for
This new menu is so aggravating I'm trying to spice up my room with an invention but the buttons that they had like two months ago was nice but now maybe watching this video I can understand on how to find what I'm looking for again
what do you need specifically maybe i can help
@@theRCLmanoh cool beans
like a few months ago I could search random inventions before the entire menu change it was so easy all you had to do was click that button that says "get more inventions" search what you're after with your maker pen and a good portion of the time you can find something relatable to what you're looking for. So how would you go about getting back to that point and searching people's inventions
@@joewight4 honestly best way is to open watch and go to store the inventions on the top
@@theRCLman I found out what the problem was I'm used to the button being right off to the side whereas I didn't realize you had to scroll🤣🤣🤣 but anyways you're awesome my guy thank you for all your help😁😁😁
How do I turn on snap turning on new maker pen update
In the tools menu on the right side one of thw drop down menus has like a grid picture. Open that one and it should have snapping and rotate snap settings, also make sure the slider at the top is on grid
Sorry there are too many comments to see if this was already asked 😅 can you explain to me which setting is causing my shapes to move while manipulating? I just want to stretch something not move it 🤷♀️ ty oh n ty for making this finally a tutorial on the new pen which is great cuz I'm super new
Oh also if you have a in depth tutorial on circuits link it for me? I'm coming from horizon worlds sooo I'm lost on curcuts lol ty appreciate you and your time 👍💙
seems strange, when you manipulate that it would move the whole thing, hmmmm
on the tools page on the right side there may be a setting in one of the drop down menus.
as for circuits here is a tutorial on them th-cam.com/video/Ow2CCZPedb0/w-d-xo.html
this one is fairly old and i should probably remake it but other than the menus being changed, the information its self is still correct
if you have more questions feel free to ask
Ty you're awesome
How do you make your tube small
Not super good with tubes, pretty sure when you select tube. Hit tools then on the right side i think there are tube settings
What button do I use on the controller tho?
for what?
Is the recroom maker pen menu only for PC and VR? Because I play on PS4 and I've been trying to learn how to use the menu but there's been 0 videos on how to use the makerpen menu for PS4.
Click the right stick to open maker pen menu :]
@@theRCLman thank you so much!
Glad to help :)
How do you make a fully CUBE cube? All i have is smooth edges, and it infuriates me.
I think the pointy cube is still i beta, try enable beta content in your roo.
when i try to configure something it only gives me the tags of it
hmmmm what are you trying to configure that might be why
My Maker Pen just won’t work sometimes, it refuses to spawn anything even though I have enough ink and everything else I need to spawn things.
Hmmm just to be sure is the create button selected ?
Hey so my make invention button won't turn on so I'm not in edit mode and I've refreshed my room I've refreshed the pen and for some reason it won't let me make an invention and I just did a big project with all original stuff that I have made I've also tried to do other objects but that didn't work
Oh and it only doesn't work in that room
does the room have beta enabled, beta content can't be saved as inventions
Yaayyy thank you
Np
I liked when you could manipulate objects the second you created them and I hope they bring the old one back:(
Maybe 1 day :)

How do you get more ink without deleting items?
best advice is to merge items and make them decoration
I'm trying to put in ping pong table but when I click on the table nothing on my maker pen shows up so I can't spawn it help
where can you get one of thoses
@@theRCLman in the props section
Guys I’m having a problem where it’s a white line coming out of the maker pen and when I spawn inventions they spawn far away or like on a object and not at the tip of the maker pen?
At the top of the tools page slide the slider to off or to grid, its on surface right now so it will spawn at the surface the beam touches
@@theRCLman thanks
Np :)
Can you change the menu back to the old one?
Nope
Make a video on how to give them physics
make your object, then configure it and set it to physical
Hey My inventions it just shows mine and not ones in the store or all
Hit search, then inventions, then downloaded to see the ones from other people. To get to the store open watch hit store and click inventions
Can you make a tutorial of how to make a new dorm for the new maker update i really need a new room. Ty

I would like that as well
i just came to learn about how to move the makerpen window because i think my wrist is dying

How do you self scale
I think to hold the triggers and spread while holding the makerpen but im not 100 sure
I need help with animating with the new pen
I've got a few request for this, thinking about doing it

@@theRCLman i am in my room and it said disabled for some reason next to the menu thingy
How do you make a wall?
Just go to shapes then cube then fire the maker pen, if you want brick hit recolor and choose the color and brick material

Recently i have had issues as well idk what is going on
How do I do the text thing?
??? like get the text tool
So when I use my maker pen and I try to make a shape, for example a squiggly line, but it always stays in a straight line and I can’t fix it. So I was wondering if anyone knew how to fix. Also, this video was very helpful.
Are you making tubes, i think you ma ugh have snapping on
Ok I will try that
Thanks
So I just tried it and my snapping was on surface then I turned it off and it didn’t work but thanks for giving me a suggestion.

You have to go on your watch to create, like int this video th-cam.com/video/MM2mgU7jAQE/w-d-xo.html (its kinda old) if you don't have a create button on your watch then this video here th-cam.com/video/rp1JhsR0i6k/w-d-xo.html is probably why
Why is the shape I drew massive when all the size settings are 0.1 meters
yeah, that kinda doesn't add up
How do you get inventions
Easiest way is actually ro opwb your watch and go to the store thwn click inventions on the top
How do I get the CV2 i only have cv1
EVERYONE HAS CV2 BUT ITS NOT CALLED CV2 ANYMORE ITS JUST CALLED CIRCUITS VIDOE EXPLAINATION HERE th-cam.com/video/g_NY8m5f5FQ/w-d-xo.html
@@theRCLman Thanks I also have a another question I don’t see any circuits above my objects and I have the maker pen equipped
As a pc player, I really like the functionality of the new maker pen. I’ve gotten more used to it. The only thing that bothers me a little bit is the design. Overall, they did a pretty good job of fitting in the new features.
i think it ok still new but we'll get used to it and they will probably change some things around
Well for the rest of us its quite bad
Are u on psvr?
Not now but i used to be
