🔑 keys are required now ~ grab ur free key in our Discord with /key and put it in the app once. old PC versions stop getting global chat on Oct 15.

  • 🔑 keys are required now: get ur free key with /key in our Discord and put it in once. still 100% free
  • ⏳ Oct 15, 2026: PC versions before v0.4.1 can't use global chat any more and get told to update. the Quest Edition isn't affected yet
  • ⬆️ update reminder: if ur version is too old, the app shows a "time to update" card with an update now button (even with auto updates off)
  • 🌍 fixed: words inside translated text sometimes got translated twice and overlapped (Japanese / Chinese / Korean)
  • 🔤 fixed: Japanese + Chinese punctuation and arrows showed as boxes
  • 🔌 No more "port is busy": we now use OSCQuery, so VRChat finds us on whatever free port the system hands out. Nothing to set up, nothing to edit in config.json
  • 🤝 Other OSC apps work alongside us: MagicChatbox, VRCOSC and friends keep getting their OSC, because we pass it straight through to them
  • 🗨️ No more chatbox fighting: if another app is writing the VRChat chatbox, Fluff quietly stands back instead of flickering over it. Pick yield / own / merge in Settings → OSC
  • ⚡ The menu and wrist HUD draw 3-6x faster: the menu went from ~52ms a frame to ~15ms, the wrist HUD from ~35ms to ~9ms. Everything looks exactly the same, it just doesn't stutter any more
  • ⚙️ Classic fixed ports are still there if u want them (Settings → OSC → Classic), and we fall back to them automatically if ur network blocks mDNS
  • 🖥️ Fixed the GPU texture error that forced slow "backup mode" on some cards (incl. GTX 1650): we now clear a stray OpenGL error left over from startup that newer PyOpenGL was blaming on us, and pass texture IDs as plain ints. If GPU textures were failing for u, the menu + wrist HUD should be a lot smoother now
  • 🩹 Fixed a crash during the intro ('App' object has no attribute 't') that could break the startup animation
  • 🤖 Fluff Bot key gate: new people only see 🔑・get-your-key until they grab their key (one button or /key). the key opens the server AND the app. owner: /gate on
