1.20.0.6 Patch Released

This patch should address the most critical issues and feedback that was given in the last few days for the 1.20.0.4 release. Thank you to everyone who took the time to test, give feedback, and provide useful testcases to fix the bugs! 

Use VaM_Updater.exe in your install folder to get the update. If you don't have VaM yet, see this post for everything you need to know: https://www.patreon.com/posts/downloading-and-32794384

Note: 1.20.0.5 was internal only and had some issues which is why the public release is 1.20.0.6.

Release Notes:

Features:

  • Added new user preference to choose if startup skips start screen and just loads default scene (preference in User Preferences Misc tab)

  • Added new user preference to auto-freeze motion/sound when switching to edit mode (preference in User Preferences Misc tab)

Tweaks:

  • Removed "Pause Simulation" toggle that was only meant for debug

  • Moved the Freeze motion/sound toggle back to the main panel since it is frequently accessed

  • Switching to play mode no longer resets physics so it is smoother

  • Switching to edit mode no longer stops motion animation timeline and animation patterns that were marked to react to game mode changes

  • Animation pattern react-to-game-mode option removed since it is no longer needed

  • Filterable popups max viewable increased to 400 from 200

  • Filterable popups now have text left justified for easier scanning

  • Filterable popups now have auto-sizing text in case the text is too long to fit on the button

  • Added previous/next buttons for the morph category popups

  • Improved LogMessage and LogError efficiency by only updating the UI element once per frame instead of on every call of those functions

  • Uppercase image thumbnail extensions (.JPG) now work

  • Clothing/hair tags are now always lowercase and filter/search is forced lowercase

  • Clothing/hair preferences built-in tags text is now more legible if there are several tags on the item

  • When physics simulation is paused, hands are always deactivated - prevents issue with physics hands getting frozen in space

  • When browsing flat in file browsers, only latest enabled packaged versions of files now show up. If you want to see other versions you need to browse by package instead

  • Plugin manager now traps errors from plugins behaving badly during Awake, Init, or during removal and removes the offending script controller

Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed issue with Person scale and control/joint displacement affecting many scenes

  • Fixed morph params for triggers not syncing properly on gender change

  • Female collision triggers are now properly deactivated on change to male

  • Fixed issue with inactive skin, clothing, and hair parameters not getting reset on Person remove between scenes or during manual Remove

  • Fixed web browser scroll up/down buttons

  • Fixed it so many of the keyboard shortcuts work in VR mode again

  • Fixed issue with some plugins not working with changed SuperController LogMesage signature (RTLipSync is an example)

  • Fixed "Save Scene and Add to New Package" to add the scene with the correct name

  • Fixed "Save Scene and Add to Current Package" button to actually work

  • Fixed the Vive Cosmos controller bindings to have a better defaults so now all features work out-of-the-box

  • Fixed UISlider, UIButton, and UIToggle interaction from occuring when blocked by invisible PlayerNavigationPanel

  • Invalid morphs (delta vertex out-of-range) no longer freeze the Person skin from updating

  • Fixed issues with several of the Ren skin textures and materials

  • Fixed issue with constant error messages about null refs when in desktop-only mode, using WindowCamera, and hitting the M key to show the WindowCamera view

Hi. I have a problem with displaying thumbnails and textures. Most miniatures look like black and beige vertical stripes.

With the Plugin MMD of players the right hand often stops and turns as moved and him separates from the body?

It sounds like that plugin has an issue/bug. If the plugin is directly controlling the bones or control joint spring are set very high, separation can occur as the natural joint holding the parts together cannot be maintained.

Dunno if it's something on my end, but only started happening when updating to .6 Hips keep twisting back and forth o: even on clean scene, loading a female atom, hips will start rotating. Males are unharmed.

MeshedVR · August 21, 2020

I haven't seen that - do you have any plugins on the Person when this is happening?

I lost function of the toggle person button in edit mode. Now i have to select persons by finding the person atom and clicking it in vr. I hate that coz they are never at the same place. :/

Ok then I am not doing this update. Also felt the pause during edit was a good feature and should made optional at least

I had the same problem and went back to 1.20.04

Turdmonkee · August 19, 2020

Anyone else having person atoms from the last scene, load into a new scene? So if you had a scene with two people and then load a scene with one, you now have three.

MeshedVR · August 20, 2020

This issue will be fixed in 1.20.0.7 patch that will be out today.

Is there a way to remove the blue and red line of the hand pointer? Thx!

menu has to be open to see targets even when switched off

M
MeshedVR · August 19, 2020

There is option in User Preferences on the Misc tab called "Only Show Targets and Overlays When Menu Open". If you have this checked targets won't appear if the menu is closed. I just tested in both desktop and VR and I can't repeat what you are seeing.

Kerrrek · August 19, 2020

Thanks! One thing I've noticed with this release is that now that every morph can be animated by default, the list is so over populated that it is impossible to find the morphs I'm looking for, at least in VR.

M
MeshedVR · August 19, 2020

I'm going to add option in the Morphs UI area that will allow you to specify if only favorites should be shown. Is it too difficult to remember some of the name to just type in a few letters into the filter box?
