New Car Designer Presets, Item Shops, Alerts & More
Update 3.0 was supposed to be our last big update. Turns out, it wasn't. This is what has changed on the RL Garage website and app since then.
Three new Car Designer presetsThe Car Designer has three new presets: Grid, Split and Showroom. They give you a finished wallpaper-likepicture of your car instead of a regular screenshot. The car is cut out of the game with its real shadow and lighting and placed into a scene built from the colors of your design.
Grid puts the car on a light background tinted with its paint, in front of the car's name in large letters. The picture also lists the decal, wheels and paint finish, along with the Team and Accent color codes.
Split divides the image along a diagonal, light on one side and dark on the other. The car's name changes color where the two sides meet.
Showroom has no text at all. The car stands in a glossy room inspired by the Fortnite garage. Made from your primary color, with its real reflection on the floor, its real shadow and the boost you picked.
There is also Dark Garage, which is the garage turntable on a dark background, and a "None" option for boost and trail on the presets that support it.
Private designs and depth of fieldProfessional users can now keep a design private. It stays visible only to you until you publish it. Professional includes up to 50 private designs, Ultimate and Titanium have no limit.
Professional users can also turn on depth of field, which blurs the background on the seven regular car designer presets.
Item shopsThe item shop page has new tabs for the Fortnite shop and the Sideswipe shop. The Fortnite tab shows the Rocket League items currently on sale in Fortnite, with their V-Bucks prices, countdowns and the paints each offer includes. Supersonic Customs, which is now an item shop of its own, with its past days and votes. Bundles should now be shown more reliably as well.
Item alertsYou can now choose the sources for each alert: the daily shop, bundles, Fortnite single items, Fortnite bundles, the Sideswipe shop and even challenges. The alerts page now uses compact cards that you can edit, pause and resume directly. We also increased the item alert limits a lot.
Item DatabaseNew items, paints, titles and Rocket Passes now reach the Item Database automatically, and new items are added to the Car Designer as well. We don't have to manually add them ourselves anymore. Meaning no more waiting for all the info on the latest Rocket League items.
Item pages now show where an item has appeared, including shop prices, bundles, Sideswipe and Fortnite shop days and the challenges that rewarded it. Many items have extra images, like a decal on its car or the item's Fortnite image. Every player title is now an item too, shown in its in-game color and glow. Names of items, titles, paints and certifications are now available in every language on the mobile app.
Video uploadsYou can upload videos to clips and discussions again, from both the website and the app.
Population and rank stats (website only)The playlist population page now has charts over time, player records, busiest times and trends. Rank distributions for Duel, Doubles and Standard are now calculated daily from all the ranks we have seen.
Smaller changes Design renders that get lost are retried automatically Blurry textures in Car Designer renders are fixed Bodies without paint finishes, like the Battle Bus and Ecto-1, no longer ask for one Popular All Time now ranks designs by all likes ever The designs tab on profiles now loads more than the first 20 designs Like counters update when you press the button Comment counts include every visible comment and reply You no longer get the same push notification multiple times New certifications: Silencer, Reverberator, Underdog and Exploder The stats search also finds RL Garage usernames The appThe RL Garage app is now compatible with current iOS and Android versions and we released it as version 3.1. Most of the changes above are in the app as well.
Car Designer is now one of the default tabs. You can swipe through all images of an item and open them in full screen. The whole app is now available in 12 languages, including player titles, ranks, playlists and challenges.
Shop item alerts can be created from the + menu with a simpler editor. Tapping a notification opens the right shop, bundle or page, even when the app was closed, and times are no longer 1 to 2 hours off.
