Quaver Update 0.23.0 Patch Notes

A new Quaver client update has been released! For this update, we worked on improving skinning, the editor, and much more!

Skinning Improvements

Skin Source Improving the process of creating skins is an on-going development process, and with this update we've worked on the first batch of improvements. Keep in mind that there may be breaking changes during the beta while we work to improve skinning. We will try our best to avoid breaking changes, but sometimes it is inevitable. Here's what we've added and changed.

• Replaced the skin.ini config values "HitLightingWidth" and "HitLightingHeight" with "HitLightingScale" and "HoldLightingScale." You can now control the sizes of the hit and hold lighting textures individually, and changing the sizes of them is now consistent with other elements.
• Added "HitLightingColumnRotation" and "HoldLightingColumnRotation" skin.ini config values to be able to rotate the hit/hold lighting based on the column it is in.
• Added a "DefaultSkin" skin.ini config value to be able to explicitly set the default skin your custom skin will use. If none is specified, it will use the default skin the player has set in the options menu.
• Removed "UseAndRotateHitObjectSheet" and separated it into two settings. Added "UseHitObjectSheet" to use a spritesheet for skins that use different note textures per beat snap and "RotateHitObjectsByColumn" to rotate the notes depending on the column that they're in. This allows you to create bar skins which use beat snap colors much easier.
• Added a "JudgementHitBurstFps" skin.ini config value to explicitly set the animation frame rate of judgement hit burst textures.
• Added a "WidthForNoteHeightScale" skin.ini config value to be able to customize the height of the objects without having to resize all of your images manually.

More Editor Shortcuts

A few new keyboard shortcuts have been added to the editor. Here's what we've added:

• You can now place normal notes using the number row keys. However, you cannot currently place long notes with them just yet!
• Pressing Ctrl + I will place a scroll velocity point at the current time.
• Pressing Ctrl + Shift + I will place a timing point at the current time.
• Pressing Shift + Up/Down will now switch the active layer.
• Pressing Home/End will skip to the beginning/end of the map respectively.
• Pressing Shift + H will show/hide the current layer.
