River Oaks 0.1.2

The second patch release of the River Oaks desktop app, for Apple Silicon Macs.

What's new

Characters

• Every resident has their own face. The six resident models carry 25 face-shape controls (head shape, nose, mouth, chin, cheeks, eyes, brows), and each resident gets a stable mix, baked once when they load at no cost per frame. Jevica and Prince Jev keep their authored faces.
• Every character has a humanoid and a beast form.
• Borrowed hairstyles bend with the neck and back like the models' own hair.

Birds you can see

• Jev's birds now fly low enough to see from the street, and one keeps you company, circling the spot you're looking toward. On the street a bird is in view about half the time (it was never in view before). Ride-along views are lower and closer while a bird circles.

Play together

• Choose solo or multiplayer at the start, with WorkOS sign-in for shared play.
• Shared worlds: Jevica-owned and creator-authored regions publish as shared worlds, with an admin world studio, revision drafts and live migration.
• Contacts and private messages between residents, invitations to a contact's current world, and resident profiles that persist across worlds.
• Saved landmarks and private building designs follow your account.

Fixes

• Faster boutique routing; the dev town join retries during startup; a mode switch survives storage refusals.
