Meta Horizon Worlds v177 is here! This week, we’re highlighting recent experiments to help with world discovery, making it easier for everyone to access the script library, and rolling out some bug fixes.

Quality of Life Improvements


  • Improving world discovery & consideration: We’ve begun testing features that give users more context about worlds they discover on Horizon Feed. Selected worlds will now have teaser videos that auto-play on hover. Badges will also begin appearing next to select worlds, providing more context around the recommendation (i.e. “Trending,” “For You”).
  • Opening access to script library: We opened the script library tab in VR to all creators. This enables you to delete and duplicate scripts in worlds with file-backed scripts enabled.

Highlighted Bug Fixes

Here are some highlighted bug fixes for this week’s release.

General


  • We fixed a bug where the nametag was reversed if the trigger was used to take a photo.
  • We fixed a bug where the text on the loading screen was not displayed after the first time you traveled.
  • We fixed a bug where visiting a world immediately after publishing it could take you to an older version of the world.

Creators


  • We fixed a bug in worlds with file-backed scripts enabled where new variables could not be added to CodeBlock scripts.
  • We fixed a bug where the toggles in the properties of an object were white when they should’ve been blue/black.

Select Known Issues

Here are some of the known issues the Worlds team is currently investigating.

General


  • When standing on an object next to a wall, poking your head into the wall causes the camera to shake. This effect is much more drastic when standing on a ramp.
  • In the sound settings in the Horizon menu, the “Voice Channel” description is the same color (black) as all the settings titles when it should be the same color as the other settings descriptions (gray).
  • It’s not possible to scroll down and read the text of quest rewards on mobile.
  • The “Mobile optimized” text overflows on the details page next to a door on mobile.

Creators


  • The TextGizmo doesn’t display emoji characters.
