Don't have two hours to spare to watch the latest VRChat Dev Stream, jam packed with features and announcements?

We've got a new VRChat patch out for you. This is VRChat 2021.1.5p3, build number 1078.

It is a small patch that implements a workaround to mitigate the voice-breaking "audio bug"!

[h2]Changes, Fixes, and Additions[/h2]

• Implemented a workaround to help mitigate the "audio bug". It should no longer kill your voice audio until you restart VRChat, but instead will only result in a ~1-2 second cutout. We're continuing to investigate to address the root cause!
  

VRChat will be holding our next Dev Stream on Tuesday, April 13th at:

• 6:00PM Pacific Time
  
• 9:00PM Eastern Time
  
• 1:00AM UTC (April 14th)
  
• 10:00AM JST (April 14th)
  

Tune in on our Twitch channel at that time, and you'll find our dev team chatting about a bunch of stuff! We'll talk about what we've been up to, what we're working on right now, and what to look forward to coming soon!

There's a lot to talk about so grab a snack, a drink, and a comfy spot. See you then!

Want to watch with your friends in VRChat? Find a world with a livestream-compatible player and drop in the Twitch URL ( https://twitch.tv/vrchat ). You might want to try out jetdog8808's "Dynamic Theater (Udon)". You can easily find it by searching for "dynamic theater udon" in VRChat.

It works great and is super easy to use! Just hop into the world, go through the doors, click the monitor icon on the config panel, and paste in the Twitch channel link by pressing Ctrl-V on your keyboard with the VRChat window focused.

We've got a new VRChat patch out for you. This is VRChat 2021.1.5p1, build number 1068.

This is a "network-compatible" patch, meaning that you do not need to update to see other people that have already updated! If you're currently in VRChat, you can delay updating this with no issues. However, you should probably update as soon as you can to resolve the issues the patch addresses.

Check out the full patch notes in our docs.
