General Improvements and Bug Fixes

  • On Oculus, Room Destinations now work.
  • Improved walking/sprinting on touch.
  • Updated the notification for when a player joins a room.
  • CV2 seats with their default cushion mesh disabled will now show a green box highlight when you hover over them.
  • Selecting an event from the clubs page now brings you to the new event details page.
  • We fixed Xbox friend import! You can have friends again!
  • The Ground Vehicle Set Wheel Friction Multiplier CV2 chip now properly sets the Wheel Friction Multiplier of the Ground Vehicle. Amazing, we know.
  • Fixed a bug where scrubbing an animation could disconnect other players. Scrub your animations, not your friends!
  • Fixed a bug where tubes would twist when manipulating points, they should be more solid now!
  • Fixed a bug where holding or using some items such as Health/Shield potions or Rum Jug while seated in a Rec Rally buggy could make the buggy go crazy.
  • Fixed Rec Rally Boost Pickups occasionally being invisible in UGC rooms, while it was fitting for spooky month, it certainly wasn’t something we wanted to keep!
  • Fixed a bug where certain Invisible Collision volumes would make the player crouch despite disabling "Collides with Player" - No more banging your head on something invisible!
  • Fixed a bug that caused drawings to become lighter each time they were uploaded, they now keep their tan.
  • Fixed a bug where melee weapons could impulse vehicles and make them fly, no more super strength on vehicles.
  • Fixed some helmets that weren't properly hiding your hairstyle when you put them on.
