noteChoosing a template will pre-populate certain fields in the creation form accordingly.
Extend
- Event Handler
- One namespace can now support multiple Extend Event Handlers.
- Service Extension
- Deploying Extend Service Extension into any namespace or environment will not require image changes (base path changes).
- For existing customers who used the Extend Service Extension sample app before February 26th, 2024, ensure that you follow the migration guide.
- Security
PLUGIN_GRPC_SERVER_AUTH_ENABLED
is set to true by default for all Extend Override and Service Extension sample apps. This is to encourage game developers to validate the token received from AGS and confirms that it's indeed for the Extend app.PLUGIN_GRPC_SERVER_AUTH_ENABLED
has been removed as it's no longer necessary.
- Event Handler
Breaking Changes
- [Game SDK][UE][Wallet] The Integer type implementation being changed from 32-bit to 64-bit could disrupt game integration, especially if Wallet request and response models are being used in the Blueprints implementation.
