Breakroom Viewer

Release notes for Breakroom viewer v2025.5f20496

Viewer version: 2025.5f20496

New Features & Improvements

• Main Menu & Pinning System

  • A new main menu provides a single place to access key controls, tools, and viewer options such as Settings, Help, and About.

  • Items within the menu can be pinned to the toolbar, allowing each user to choose which tools remain visible on-screen for quicker access.

• Toolbar & Interface Updates

  • The new toolbar at the top-right of the interface brings together commonly used controls such as microphone, volume, music, and other quick-access tools, along with any items the user pins from the main menu.

  • The overall interface has been refined for clearer layout, improved spacing, and better visual consistency across panels and menus.

  • The loading indicator now appears in a less obtrusive position, and a confirmation popup was added to the Log Out option for clarity.

  • Numerous small visual and functional adjustments improve alignment, readability, and interaction throughout the interface.

• Minimap & Region Display

  • The Minimap can now be pinned or hidden, giving users the option to keep it visible or remove it for a cleaner view.

  • The menu header now displays the current region and, when applicable, the active zone.

• Connection Indicators

  • Connection feedback has been improved with clearer, unified icons for Wi-Fi, voice, and chat connection states.

  • Indicator visibility and behavior were refined for better consistency.

• Settings Improvements

  • The Graphics Settings window now includes clearer labels for presets and improved text to make configuration easier to understand.

  • Several settings have been reorganized into more intuitive categories.

  • Chat text size can now be adjusted independently from the overall UI scale.

Bug Fixes

• User Interface

  • Fixed an issue in the Groups menu where the “Edit Region Profile” button opened the group edit screen and the group name did not display; the button now shows “Edit Profile” and the group name displays correctly.

  • Fixed an issue where text or hyperlinks in the Microphone & Camera Audio Test panel could spill or overflow when resized; text now wraps correctly and the layout adjusts to maintain alignment.

  • Fixed an issue where the bottom navigation bar could display a white background strip and appear to extend beyond its area when some features were hidden.

  • Fixed an issue where the displayed used region size could show incorrect values in the Edit Region and Explore panels, or when switching between floors; the used size now counts all floors correctly and displays consistently across panels.

  • Fixed an issue where the connection icon could display “Connection Status: No issues.” while the chat panel still showed it was connecting to the XMPP server; the connection status now displays correctly.

  • Fixed an issue where dragging chat tabs out and back could leave a white duplicate of the chat panel; toggling Hide/Show Chat now correctly updates the chat display and hides/shows all chat channels.

  • Fixed an issue where the region name could be invisible in the Edit Region Profile panel; the region name now displays correctly.

  • Fixed a crash that occurred when using the Moderator tools’ “Reveal hidden UI features” option; hidden UI buttons now display correctly without crashing.

  • Fixed an issue where screen sharing or camera would unexpectedly stop when turning the microphone on or off; the displayed share/camera state now stays in sync with the actual stream.

  • Fixed an issue that prevented users from resizing the Gestures window in the Inventory.

  • When composing mail, clicking “Select More” now brings the Select Recipient window to the front so it is no longer hidden behind the Mail window.

  • Fixed an issue where emojis could appear at the wrong size when editing messages or changing the chat text size; emojis and regular text now display consistently.

  • Bug fix - When a region has no active text chat channels, the chat button is now hidden so users will no longer see or open a blank chat window.

  • Fixed an issue where the Regions and Shop buttons only became visible after clicking the Outfit button; they now appear correctly without that extra step.

  • Fixed an issue where disabling Hotbar in the Dashboard and then re-enabling it via Viewer’s Moderator Tools made previously added Hotbar items disappear.

  • Fixed an issue where the “Chat Connection Lost” panel could not be closed by clicking its X button; the panel can now be dismissed using the close button.

• Avatar & Content

  • Fixed an issue that could prevent avatars from loading.

  • Fixed an issue where, after logging out, the avatar briefly appeared pink or visually broken before the login screen; logging out now advances directly to the login screen without showing the broken avatar.

  • Fixed an issue where bundle item appearance chances didn’t match the configured probabilities; bundle drops now follow the configured settings.

  • Fixed an issue where the Idle-CuteGirl gesture by Sine Wave did not update an avatar’s idle pose.

  • Fixed an issue where some accessories would not appear in an outfit preview when worn with a full humanoid avatar, which could prevent the Save button from becoming active.

  • Fixed a bug where certain attachments could become excessively large and float when worn on full-body avatars; attachments now retain their correct scale when attached.

• App (General)

  • Embedded videos now respect object audio sources so spatial audio works correctly again; the viewer now prioritizes the built-in video player and falls back to an alternate player only when necessary.

  • Fixed an issue where the video player opened the full browser page instead of playing embedded videos; embedded YouTube videos now play in the player (some YouTube content may still require signing in).

  • Fixed an issue where some long-standing regions could fail to load after updating the client; affected regions should now load correctly.

  • Fixed an issue that could prevent users from joining some regions (the app could freeze or disconnect during finalizing); joining those regions now works normally.

  • Fixed an issue where in-world video playback could ignore the Master and Voice volume sliders, so changing the sliders did not affect the video’s sound.

  • Fixed multiple crashes that could cause the app to exit unexpectedly — including when entering or teleporting between regions, viewing a world’s Privacy Notice/EULA, logging in, changing audio/microphone settings, editing room names, or browsing shop items.

  • Fixed an issue that caused content that uses Flickr (such as the board in Welcome Center) to sometimes appear blank or lose images.

• App (Mac)

  • Fixed an issue on Mac where choosing outfits other than the default could display a black silhouette instead of the selected outfit.

  • Fixed a crash on Mac that could cause the viewer to close unexpectedly when others join a region, after teleporting, or after being open for a period of time; the issue related to in-world script interaction has been addressed.

  • Fixed an issue where the eject-user countdown timer could overlap the search bar on Mac; the timer and search bar are now properly aligned.
