05 Aug 2021Developer post

Studio

Fixed the issue where pictures saved in png format did not appear correctly when a picture of a translucent object was taken.
Fixed the issue where the size of some input fields in the settings screen kept changing under a certain condition.

The calibration result now persists across Rooms.
- You no longer have to calibrate each time you move to different rooms.
Publish state of the room will be shown on the room information panel.
To improve the stability of the server, we have applied limitations to some synchronization APIs in VCI.
- This is a counteraction against some VCIs that could overload the entire sync server and shut it down in the former sync systems.
- We will be adjusting this limitation as we go as we want everyone to play VirtualCast comfortably.
Here are the limitations in specific.
- APIs starting with _ALL_, such as _ALL_SetText, will have a sendable character limitation of 512 bytes (in UTF-8).
  - This is about 500 alphabetical characters or about 250 Japanese characters.
  - If you need to display a large number of texts, please use vci.state or vci.message API to synchronize.
- vci.message can send a text of up to 4000 bytes (in UTF-8).
- The amount of data you can share with vci.state is up to 16KB.
