How Do You Save Models to Your Library?
The save button is a disk icon located at the bottom center of the modeling screen that records your active mesh. When building objects or designing costumes during edit mode, clicking this interface button writes your completed shape to your local collection.
Developer YUMEXE announced the feature during the demo rollout on the official Steam store page:
Save the models you create to your model library and revisit them whenever you want. — the developer's Steam announcement
Saving your work relies on a few straightforward steps in the editor:
- Open the creation workspace by pressing F on your keyboard while selecting your base shape.
- Complete your adjustments using tools like extrude, inset, cut, or bevel within 3D modeling.
- Back out to the main build interface to confirm all primitive shapes and colors align correctly.
- Click the disk save button located at the bottom center of the screen to register the asset to your library.
Saving your build prevents permanent loss when adjusting experimental shapes. If an object is accidentally dragged outside the valid building boundary during live preparation, the editor resets the active workspace model to a raw cube.
Can You Reuse Saved Models in Live Hiding Matches?
Hiders cannot reload previously saved disguise models during a live match to hide immediately. In a developer discussion thread on the Steam community hub, the team confirmed that Fakers must build their disguises within the match timer of each round rather than loading pre-built assets from storage.
This restriction exists so that rounds remain balanced. In standard matches, the hide preparation timer gives players 300 seconds to construct a prop from a basic cube. If players could load complex prefabs directly from storage, hiding time would lose its intended role. Saved models do remain active for Seekers, who can wear saved costume designs continuously across matches.
| Model Type | In-Game Availability | Practical Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Hider Prop | Lobby showcase and file export | Must be built from scratch during the round timer |
| Seeker Costume | Equippable across live matches | Must attach shapes to specific body bones before saving |
| Painted Object | Library storage and screenshots | Requires manual texture painting during match prep |
Where Can You Use Saved Models?
The model library is a personal storage menu where your saved creations remain accessible outside of active rounds. When you save an asset, the system preserves it for three specific functions:
- Lobby Showcase: You can load and display any saved prop or structure while waiting inside the pre-game lobby with friends.
- Seeker Outfits: Shapes connected to character limbs through character customization stay equipped on your Seeker model for future rounds.
- External Files: The interface allows model export to transfer your files into third-party 3D software, as well as capturing model screenshots.
Players looking to discuss model formatting updates or report library bugs can communicate directly through the official Discord community. Saving creations regularly ensures that any unique designs built during practice sessions stay preserved for export or lobby presentation.
