CSS IN MOD PACKS

I have been asking for this feature before, and it’s great that it’s working. Now, it will become very easy to use someone else’s custom CSS/UI.

The main reason I wanted this feature was so you can get a MOBILE BUTTON LAYOUT more easily. I tested this and it works, you can try philzgoodmod on your phone using my 4-finger claw layout.

Just look for my mod in the “featured” section:

Note: I don’t have my main desktop styles in there, just because I don’t want it to interfere w/ those that already use their own custom CSS. Also, I added something called a “media query” so that the mobile styles are ONLY APPLIED TO SMALL SCREEN SIZES. So this way it won’t interfere with anything if you’re playing on desktop.

How about customizing your own mobile layout / UI? I’ll have to let you know later. I got in touch with the Krunker team and there’s cool stuff in the works!

How to add CSS in a mod pack:

Within your mod folder’s root directory, create a sub-folder called “CSS”
Add your CSS file and make sure it’s called “main_custom.css”. If there are any version identifiers attached to the file extension, delete them.

What is Post Processing?

The thing about post-processing in Krunker is that it’s not yet clear what it’s for. Usually, post-processing can include things like NVIDIA filters or “film grain” that give the game some aesthetic changes. I will have to test further, but right now I don’t notice it doing anything.

How about Performance Optimizations?

Krunker still has a challenge with consistency across various updates but this update feels really smooth. I still don’t get highly consistent FPS, but even when FPS is lower, the game feels better than it did before.

I think that Krunker is heading in the right direction.

Anonymous Mode in Krunker

This was such a nice feature that I didn’t expect. Whenever I’m in a game, there’s a good chance that someone wants to chat and I always try my best to respond. However, as you can imagine, it’s very distracting. I end up playing as Guest or doing a private lobby (esp when testing stuff). But now that the anonymous feature exists, I find it really helpful.

This is a feature that is currently limited to verified Krunker users.

More Cool Stuff

There’s plenty of more cool stuff in this update, like custom muzzle flashes. I look forward to trying everything out! I’m sure that we’ll get even more updates soon, but this patch 2.7.2 will be serving us well for a long time.
