Author: Tupper,
published 3 years ago,
We've just released VRChat 2021.2.3, build 1100-- the [b]Identity Update[/b] is now live!
The focus of this release is to provide you with a bunch of new ways to identify yourself in VRChat! Add a bio to your user profile, customize your status, and see everyone else's status on their nameplates for an at-a-glance look at who's who around you! You can also enjoy some nice new quality-of-life features like status history, more favorite friends, more favorite worlds, and more. We've also got some bug fixes, performance improvements, and a handful of new Udon additions.
[b]If you're a VRChat Plus supporter[/b], enjoy the new Gallery feature and the ability to set a custom image as your Profile picture! This profile picture will replace your avatar thumbnail in social menus! Create a custom image using image editing software and upload it on the site, or just take a picture in VRChat and use that instead! You can also use Gallery images for image invites-- so make some fancy invite cards for your next event, or just to show off a bit.

[b]VRChat Plus Benefit[/b]: You can now upload images to the Gallery, which is a repository of images currently used for profile images and custom invite images! You can upload images from taking a picture in VRChat, or using the VRChat Home website. We've moved your user icons into the Gallery so everything's in one place.

[b]The nameplate now includes your custom status message![/b] This is only visible when your Quick Menu is opened by default, but can be set to always show or hide it completely.

Your last 10 statuses are saved server-side, and you can reset to them at any time! Use the big "history" button on the side of the Edit Status window to see the last 10. We didn't keep track before now, so you'll get some placeholders at first. They'll drop off the list as you fill out your own history.
[h2]Changes and Improvements[/h2]
[list]
[*] [b]Your user Status text is now visible to the public,[/b] instead of just friends and users in your current instance.
[*] You can now search Community Labs! Simply search for Worlds like normal, then click the checkbox at the top of the results to "Show Community Labs"
[*] The size of favorite friend lists has been increased to 64 (from 32)
[*] The size of world playlists has been increased to 64 (from 32)
[*] Streamer Mode has been updated to hide status in nameplate, user profile images, and bio text when active
[*] Adjusted the default MSAA multiplier for PCVR to 4x instead of 8x for performance savings. An option has been added to the Performance menu for users that prefer 8x
[*] Adjusted locomotion exiting stations so that bumping your control stick won't accidently jump you out of the station (requires analog value of 0.7 to exit)
[/list]
[h2]Fixes[/h2]
[list]
[*] Fixed a long-standing issue preventing users from interacting with the Quick Menu while falling or moving quickly
[*] Fixed an issue where some WMR headsets and some canted display headsets had NearClip and FarClip improperly applied, resulting in undesired culling behavior
[*] Several changes were made to reduce the negative impact of avatar initialization timing changes made in 2021.2.1, which caused issues such as arm twisting and strange leg movement during locomotion
[*] Fixed an issue where the audio source for voice wouldn't move properly in some culling situations
[*] Fixed an issue where the AV3 utility poses (IKPose, TPose) weren't being used in some situations
[/list]
[h1]SDK and Udon[/h1]
[list]
[*] Object and Int arrays can now be shuffled using Utilities.ShuffleArray
[*] VRCObjectPool can now shuffle its spawn order using VRCObjectPool.Shuffle
[*] UdonBehaviours now have a 'DisableInteractive' property you can get and set to control whether an object with an Interact event should accept pointer raycasts and show an interactable outline and tooltips
