We've just released VRChat 2021.2.3, build 1100-- the Identity Update 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.
If you're a VRChat Plus supporter, 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.
Check out our full release notes below, or on our documentation site!
Client
Features
The User Profile has been refreshed with lots of new features! Clicking yourself in the "In Room" row on the Social panel will lead you to your own profile. Your Profile displays your profile picture, your status, your bio, your current world, your playlists, and more.
VRChat Plus Benefit: You can now choose an image from your Gallery as a Profile Image! This image will appear in the place of your current avatar's thumbnail. You can choose any image from your Gallery as your profile image.
VRChat Plus Benefit: 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.
The nameplate now includes your custom status message! 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.
Changes and Improvements
Your user Status text is now visible to the public, 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)
