Hello everyone! Sorry for lack of builds recently, I've been busy with travelling, internal stuff, some business stuff and doing some preparatory work on the performance update. Here's a build with a whole bunch of bugfixes and contributions from a number of team members, including @ryuvi's first code contribution! (see each contribution for credit) And also community contribution to an open source library that we use that fixes the scrambled blendshape order from @luxkitty! Thank you so much! There are some changes and improvements for networking, which should help when running Resonite on corporate/university networks. It's probably not too interesting to everyone here, but it helps with some of our other usages!

Socialize with anyone

• Low latency voice - communicate in real time with other users in session with latency rivaling that of other messaging applications
  
• Fully custom avatars - import, build and customize any avatars in-game and in real-time to look like the best version of you
  
• Full body tracking, eye & face tracking - to maximize your avatar's expressivity we support 8 trackers (feet, knees, hips, chest and elbows) as well as eye and face tracking
  
• Haptics support - with support for haptic vests such as bHaptics, you can increase your immersion and become part of the virtual world
  
• Instant messaging - chat over text, send invites, voice messages or even arbitrary items to your contacts
  
• Flexible session visibility & security - you are in control of the visibility and accessibility of your sessions, anywhere from public to fully private, with an access list you control. All validation and verification of joining users is done on your client - if you set your session to Private, you can be sure that it is private
  
• Customizable UI - the user interface is your gateway to using the platform and just like everything else in Resonite, it can be customized and extended to better suit your needs and make your daily experience more comfortable
  
• Self-moderation tools - we understand that not every interaction on the platform will be good and that's why we want to empower you with a number of self-moderation tools - moderate your own worlds with silence, kick and ban functions or easily mute and block individual users avatars or their entire presence. Our goal is to give you as much control over your virtual experience as we can.
  
• Multi-world presence - just like tabs in a web browser, you can be present in multiple worlds and switch between them in a fraction of second

Play, explore and share

• Easy media sharing - drag & drop pictures, audio/music or videos into any world to share with other users with synchronized playback - it's that easy!
  
• Inventory system - did you find or made something cool? Save it to your inventory! You can spawn any items, gadgets and tools in any world (as long as you have permissions to do so) - everything is fully synchronized too!
  
• Dynamic avatar scaling - exploring the world or interacting with users at different scales can give you quite a different experience - you can change your avatar's scale anywhere, at any time (unless it's limited by the host of the session)!
  
• High quality audio streaming - want to host a party and be the DJ? Streaming your system audio in full stereo in high quality is a few clicks away
  
• World search & session discovery system - looking for a cool world to visit or what your friends are up to? Searching worlds by their names and tags as well as seeing which worlds your contacts are in will help you there
  
• Stream to your audience - our in-game recording and streaming tools make it easy to produce captivating and dynamic camera shots, whether you're streaming or filming videos for social media
  
• Custom locomotion - we don't limit you to just walking around - you can fly, noclip switch to zero-g or build your own customized locomotion system - ever tried to walk on a surface of a Möbius strip?

Build and create

• Realtime collaboration - the collaboration on our platform is so seamless, that you will often forget it's there - our powerful engine ensures that the world and everything in it starts in perfect sync, no matter what you do - you'd be hard pressed to find any feature or functionality that'd be visible only to you (unless it's your private UI of course!)
  
• Edit anything - everything you see in the world can be edited and customized with the game tools - in fact, we built a lot of the official functionality in-game with the same tools that are accessible to you - from the home world, default avatars, to video players, color picker UI or progress bar - you can take them apart or build your own from scratch and favorite them
  
• Save anything - you can save literally anything on the platform! Whether you built a new item, an avatar or a world, or made modifications to an existing one, everything can be persisted with a single click of a button. You can efficiently store multiple copies as well - our deduplication system will ensure that any shared assets only get counted once
  
• Development tools - our development tools range from simple brushes and procedural meshes to more advanced and powerful ones, similar to ones you find in classical game development tools - except that you can use them in VR with real time collaboration!
  
• Cross-world synchronization and persistence - with our integrated cloud tools, you can easily preserve user data between sessions or synchronize state across multiple different worlds
  
• Import 3D models - thanks to open source libraries, it's extremely easy to bring in large variety of 3D model formats - simply drag and drop your FBX, OBJ, GLB or other files and bring them in
  
• Texture/Audio/Model processing - need to make a quick edit to a texture, audio file or 3D mesh? Basic editing functions are fully accessible in-game - from hue-shifting textures, normalizing and clipping audio to recalculating normals and tangents on meshes or baking them
  
• Export content for external tools - as easy as it is to bring content in, it's just as easy to take it out! With this, you can make edits using external tools or make Resonite part of your workflow

Code and develop

• ProtoFlux - ProtoFlux is the crown jewel of our creative tools - the most powerful visual programming language that our experienced team has designed to date, which lets you quickly prototype and build anything from simple interactions to complex games and systems - with full real-time collaboration support and immediate feedback
  
• Script anything - ProtoFlux can interact with anything - the world, the items, your avatar and any combinations of these!
  
• Websockets - thanks to built-in websocket support, you can easily communicate with external applications and scripts and build extensive functionality, such as your own game servers, fetching external data to integrating new and custom hardware, without having to depend on official integration
  
• Async Flows - creating code that needs to yield or wait across different frames is a native feature of ProtoFlux, with full execution scope preservation - you can even have multiple async flows running off the same code, each with their own unique context, which is a highly powerful and flexible tool for simplifying your logic
  
• Flexible storage system - locals, stores and data model - pick where you store your computational data depending on the desired scope and context, to build highly efficient systems
