Meta Horizon v208 Release Notes
[Direct Link]
In case you missed the v208 Release Notes post. Note that release notes will be viewable directly in the Desktop Editor soon (as mentioned in the upcoming features section). This week we improved the backend stability of the desktop editor, simplified the process of importing custom skyboxes, and fixed bugs reported by the creator community.
New Feature
- Simplified skybox creation by only requiring a standard cube map to be uploaded in order for a skybox to appear.
Quality of Life Improvements
- Instead of having to use "OnProjectHitObject" to know when a specific object is hit, or "OnProjectileHitWorld" to know when anything is hit, you can now use "OnProjectileHitEntity" and it will let you know both.
- Improved memory leak detection.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a big where selecting an object's “x” position would select another object in the hierarchy.
- Fixed a bug where the publish buttons at times did not appear in the desktop editor UI panel.
- Fixed a bug where custom model imports asset links would break during world editing.
- Fixed a bug that could crash the editor when switching tabs while performance metrics were running.
- Fixed a bug where changes to an avatar's size could cause camera clipping issues. (MR only)

- Sound Recorder gizmo is known to appear functional, however recorded audio will not save or playback.
