Hot Fixes

**Hot Fixes** show the changes made to the Utherverse by the development team that are not an Utherverse game client update. Note that changes to the game client are detailed on the Patch Notes page.

Utherverse is currently looking for additional requests of new content, there is a post called  Quick Update made by KendrickT on the forum in the general section that requests this.

## Hot Fixes: May 22, 2020

   In the beginning of the week we updated our branding for Utherverse, Redlight Center and Virtual Vancouver.

* New Launch and Repair buttons.
* New Splash screens (RLC & UV only).
* New Loading screens (RLC & UV only).
* New Header logos (RLC & UV only).
* New Login screen (RLC & UV only).

We have finally adjusted the prices to the properties lowering announced by Brian. This was a pretty labor-intensive project. But all the prices should now be correct. We apologize for some of the mixups. It was a live migration process and it had to be all done manually therefore some errors have occurred but are all fixed.

We have pushed new branding to the Utherverse and Red Light Center transports. These now have new logos and locations; the portal closest to RLC Street door now changes locations every so often to Utherverse public locations. We added an event portal to be able to host events that are being provided by Utherverse, as well as moved the VWW of the day portal to the Utherverse side. The opposite side of the transports are now rentable portals for business users.

In lew of updating transports, we have renewed the Utherverse portals in the 9 Pod Transports, with the same appropriate style as the Utherverse Transport. Now it will be easier for those who use personal transports to see what is going on in Utherverse, active events, VWW of the day and also a rotating portal that links to all Utherverse Public locations. We are still in the process of doing the same overhaul to the 3, 5 and 7 Pod Transports.

## New functionality in the Prop Editor: April 16, 2020

   We have overhauled all the **Categories** and **Types** when adding new props, these are now far better structured and should be easier to use for seasoned as well as new decorators.

### How does this help the decorating community?

1. We acknowledged that learning all the props for new decorators can be a difficult task, to make it easier for them we added less categories and better types with clearer purpose. As an example in the Category: **Furniture** - Type: **Chairs** you will now be able to find all the chairs, even if they do not have “chair” directly in the name, such as seat. No more need to remember obscure chair names such as “Theatre Purple Seating”
2. It should be easier to scroll through all the same props to find that specific tree for the location you are building. Simply open Category: **Nature** - Type: **Trees** and you can easily find all the trees together, and select them one-by-one to find that tree you were looking for.
3. At the top you can find a special category named **> Essential**, here you can quickly find the top most used and versatile props for any purpose.
4. If you do not select a type you will still see all the props associated with that particular category.

## Language Free Regions: April 4, 2020

Going forward we are making the Language Free region the default for RedLightCenter and Utherverse. People are still able to select their language orientation if they wish, however any language not covered members are free to use the Language Free regions to converse.

## Hot Fixes: March 13, 2020

* Many props have been renamed and duplicate names have been removed and normalized. As well as removal of underscores in names. Most names should be similar to what you are used to when searching for them in the past. We tried to keep this as close as the original names with a few exceptions. You can find a list here.
* The Social Center Closet has preview images added, you can now easily see what layer something is on.
* Closet Designer preview images have been added. You can now see a preview of the mesh of the outfit you are uploading.
* There is a new clothing designer kit, with updated textures and missing meshes. This is still not fully complete. We will try and see if we can find the rest. You can find the new kit here.
* The replace image finally exists and isn't transparent anymore. When you add the Cached Web Image script to a prop you will now see a placeholder image.
* The front page of Utherverse.com's flash applet has been removed and replaced to keep functioning in the future as a normal website.
* Removed underscore symbols from a lot of tables so names of props, textures, gml, granny etc. won't have these anymore.
* Search on the closet should now be faster and optimized.
* New categories have been added to Clothing Search, namely, hats, jewelry, eyes and body jewelry.
* The icon for hair has once returned and should no longer display a missing image url.
