Release Notes for 590

[bluebxrrybot (blueberry)]

Oh my god. Finally we can get frequency related data from audio! What flags did you change?

[FloofyNezzled]

@SubtotalAnt8185

Or maybe a way to slow down the physics ourselves.

A time scale setting would be so cool

[FloofyNezzled]

Didn’t even know this existed, did they announce this somewhere ever? It’s really cool.

EnableAudioWiring
EnableAudioWiringStudio
EnableAudioSpectrumAnalysis

You’ll need to set up a patch that routes an AudioPlayer into a AudioDeviceOutput and AudioAnalyzer. You link audio instances together with Wires, similar to a modular audio rack in real life.

Then use GetSpectrum on the analyzer itself.

---

Whoever’s working on the audio routing, it would be nice to also get a basic filter audio effect that can do audio filtering with a cutoff and resonance

[mom0367]

Any further context for this?

I get the gist of it but to my knowledge cameras don’t operate with a “speed”.

[SubtotalAnt8185]

I believe it meant the zoom interpolation. It’s been a bug for years.

Setting CameraType to Custom does not maintain camera zoom distance

Reproduction Steps Run any empty project in Studio Move the camera as far away (middle mouse button) [image] Save the current Camera Cframe (Run this on command bar): a = workspace.Camera.CFrame Change the camera position/zoom to anything: [image] Recover the original Camera CFrame: workspace.Camera.CFrame = a The camera position and angle are recovered, but not the camera distance/zoom: [image] Change the CameraType to Scriptable and do the same step 5 workspace.Camera.CFrame = a. No…

Still unaddressed.

[SubtotalAnt8185]

Why is one single spike after 60 seconds so game breaking? Do all of your scripts rely on the framerate or something?

[themostepic22otherac (zion)]

wait is this about studio or the game client?

[SubtotalAnt8185]

I don’t know simply because I don’t notice the problem.

[themostepic22otherac (zion)]

ohhh i misunderstood this i think. lemme delete it. my bad lol

[SubtotalAnt8185]

Yeah, it’s just a ping spike. Means I don’t notice it.

I wouldn’t notice it anyways since my game is cursed with performance issues and usually runs at 5 FPS, and sometimes 20-30 if I’m lucky.

[WaflSyrup]

Add a SurfaceGui.MaxDistance property for limiting draw distance.

finally… we’ll actually be able to optimize games properly
this one addition saves people with worse devices

[overflowed]

string manip my beloved

[vvv331 (vvv)]

ah, still good to know it is coming, no more suffering using console to change the sequences.

[SubtotalAnt8185]

We must rebenchmark the string interpolation versus the string formatting again.

[JoyfulFlowerMary (Mary)]

This new method of routing sound is cool, but can these new wires be routed into multiple speakers? I know sound instances can already do that, but having one source (the AudioPlayer) with wires connecting every speaker to it seems more efficient.

I tried using the AudioDeviceOutput instance and I could select my Player instance to listen to the music fine, but it’s not 3D, and AudioEmitter doesn’t seem to work at all, even when a wire is connected to it.

[metatablecatmaid (metatablecat)]

Im unsure what AudioInteractionGroup is, which seems to be the thing that is making the emitters not work.

You can connect multuple ins to and outs from a device with wires though.
ie: If you wire two AudioPlayers into an effect, it combines them into a single output.

[Ro_Designer]

The reason why the shadows shake like that is because of the change of FOV.
So they should fix the issue with shadows when the FOV changes

[SubtotalAnt8185]

While they’re working with audio, it would be cool to see if we could split sound channels for virtual left and right speaker sets.

Sounds desync, so it would be cool as a native feature.

Edit: anyone who wants to keep rbxfpsunlocker working for studio, don’t upgrade to 591

[dutycall11 (SavageMode)]

Overall I think it’s an amazing release
