Release Notes for 623

[pyxfluff (Pyx)]

What? Didn’t this get fixed a year ago here?

[Hedreon]

oh my god yes

I would want the same with MaterialVariants too

@AborayStudios

Materials, including materialvariants are influenced by the color of a part

Note to self: test things before making a post next time.

Am I overreacting with how curious I am of this new property

TL;DR: Not as interesting as it sounds.

It’s three-phase rollout prop (Disabled/Default/Enabled) controlling various internal changes to the renderer implementation. There aren’t any intentional behavior changes but it’s a large enough change that it’s being done as a three-phase rollout just in case.

SurfaceAppearance.Color I am very excited

I have to rewire my brain on how asset authoring can work now.

[xalwaleedx (sickk)]

Nice, no more dad jokes in the release notes. (I liked it…)

Let’s go! They added it, finally!

So they looked at the asset manager, but still didn’t notice this ongoing bug…

Asset Manager does not show all assets at a time

Currently, the asset manager only shows you a specific amount of items at a time, with no way to paginate them. You can see the bug in this video: If you delete the top ones, new ones show on the bottom. These are all assets I’ve put into the game. Expected behavior: The asset manager should show all your assets, allowing you to scroll if there’s too many to fit on screen at once. Current behavior: Only 25 assets show. These are not the most recent, and it seems random which 25 …

This wasn’t about looking at asset manager specifically.

We’re currently ripping out and refactoring the old object insertion code which was very fragmented and caused a lot of hangs. The code has been rewritten and now we’re replacing all of the callsites (toolbox, paste, duplicate, asset manager etc) with the new code which is better and will be consistent between all of the different ways something can be inserted.

[Dogekidd2012]

Yes! And then it regressed…and now it’s back

[weakroblox35]

omg finally thank you so much, it’s been a burden lately

(@MrChickenRocket for chickynoid)

[DanTDM_Rocks999 (Dan)]

Sadly, I don’t think Roblox is going to add this method (:StepPhysics()) to live servers for Chickynoid to use. I’d love it if it happened, but nothing is confirmed, and I suspect this feature will be bound to Studio use only.

Happy that the studio crash was fixed!

[SelDraken]

At long last! Just in time as I’m reworking my game for its 10th anniversary!

[TimeFrenzied (of Xyaery)]

maybe this will make me able to run roblox on integrated graphics and reach 75 fps!?!?!?

[BlueyHeeler96 (Bluey Heeler)]

Noticed this in the fast flags diff for 623

Does this mean something along the lines of Invalid table key type '<type>' used instead of just Invalid table key type used by itself?

[tnavarts]

That’s a fun one, it’s actually about our friend Failed to load animation - sanitized ID if you’ve ever seen that before.

People continue to misinterpret the sanitized ID part as the error message when all it’s actually saying is that that’s the sanitized ID of the animation which had some error. Now it actually prints the underlying error.

[Rocky28447 (Rocky)]

Sadly, no.

[QALOLTHING (QA_LOL)]

its still pending though i dont think its fully out yet

[yourcomputerhasdied (ミ・ヘ・ミ)]

How can I enable that
