Rec Room News

We added some new quality of life updates and bug fixes...

New Room Instance browser!

This is a new tool to help Creators, Co-Owners and Mods moderate their rooms. It shows you a bunch of details about each instance, including whether anybody with mod powers is already in that instance. You can also directly join a specific instance from this screen.

To access it, go to This Room > Settings > Room Instance Browser

We fixed some issues with VR comfort mode and room warning screens:

• Comfort mode can now be turned off if it was enabled via the room warnings screen
  
• Comfort mode option in room warnings screen now remembers your previous choice
  
• We fixed a bug where comfort mode could be wrongly enabled if you cancel your room switch after the room warnings screen
  

We implemented "safe mode" Dorm Room on non-VR platforms! This allows you to load the default Dorm Room in case your custom Dorm gets into a weird state. To activate this on"

• iOS: Launch menu > Profile > Safe Mode
  
• Other Screens: Choose "Sign in to another Rec Room account", then toggle "Safe Mode"
  

New notifications on iOS:

• You can now choose to get notified when you receive a new friend request
  
• You can now choose to get notifed when your favorite friends come online
  
• Control notifications in Watch > Settings > Experience > Notification Preferences
  

More bug fixes:

• Fixed a lighting issue that was making some custom rooms look weird on iOS.
  
• Fixed usernames being cut off on most platforms.
  
• We took the Crescendo of the Blood Moon necklaces back from Dracula, and made sure your hard earned items are available in the mirror UI!
  
• Fixed an issue where Room Chat could cause hitching.

Just a couple of bug fixes - here's what's new:

• We fixed a footwear malfunction for Quest and PS4 players. They should now be able to reach expected top speeds.
  
• HoloHelper Icons no longer flicker while you walk.
  
• We didn't think poking buttons was dramatic enough for Stunt Runner on screens, so we swapped out the animation with a button slapping animation!
  
• We made sure that new PS4 users only hear the voiceover once the dorm room has loaded.
  
• We fixed an interaction issue with the new Dorm Room Mirror.
  
• We fixed an issue that made it difficult to select room saves when restoring a room.

• Fixed bug where paging wasn't working on the block list screen and room ban screen

Just a couple of updates and bug fixes - here's what's new:

The Rec Center now has moderators! They can be identified by the new icon by the player name (crown with 1 line).

Room Bans

Creators and Co-Owners can now ban people from entering their rooms**. Use this power wisely!

• Access and manage the room ban list from This Room screen → Setup tab → Room Ban List.
  
• You can bulk import players to the room ban list from your personal block list, or from an existing room you have ban power in. Importing will only add players, and never remove.
  
• You can ban a player from one of your rooms by opening their profile page and pressing the "Room Ban" button (while you are in that room).
  

Players who are blocked by a Creator will no longer be blocked from that Creator’s rooms. Use the room ban list instead.

• We have done a one time auto import of Creators' personal block list to their room ban lists to maintain the existing behavior.
  

Plus a bunch of polish items and bug fixes, including:

• Added a prompt to tell screens players how to open the menu while carrying a boombox.
  
• Fixed a bug where sometimes accepting a co-owner request would not register
  
• Fixed an issue where other players' names would rotate towards the mirror instead of facing you
  
• Fixed not being able to aim down sights on PC screen mode
  
• Updated Stunt Runner so players are no longer able to bump one another in the lobby
  
• Fixed a hole in the back of the Stunt Runner lobby under the entrance
  
• Adjusted a checkpoint in Stunt Runner Course 4 so you cant trigger it from outside the tower structure
  
• Added sounds in the Stunt Runner levels to their respective volume mixers so they can be lowered
