Meta Horizon Worlds v178 Release Notes

Meta Horizon Worlds V178 is here! This week’s update will make it easier for you to meet up and travel with multiple friends at the same time.

Quality of Life Improvements

Invite + Travel Updates: We’re updating our invite feature to make it easier for you to meet up with friends in Meta Horizon Worlds. Now you can invite multiple friends to travel with you at once instead of inviting them one by one.

To invite multiple friends at once, head to the right-hand Social panel and choose Invite or Join. Then you can choose who you want to invite to travel, either by selecting them manually or using an invite code.

We’re rolling this improvement out gradually, so it may not be available to everyone while in testing.

Highlighted Bug Fixes

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

Creators

• We fixed a bug where assets containing file backed scripts can have their scripts run before their dependencies are loaded.

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.
• When parenting or unparenting an object, if any interactive option is set, the hierarchy breaks and jumps in position.
