[1931] Invalid OSC Messages
tracked
LaSameGem
The latest beta update seems to have silently added a new OSC endpoint
/avatar/name
that sends out the avatar's name.This breaks when the avatar's name has complex UTF-8 characters. The characters seem to get truncated to a single byte, which most OSC applications cannot correctly decode.
Debug menu "Version & Info": S:Release_1626 V:2026.4.1
This is extremely easy to reproduce with any avatar that has a
!
in its name, as that character gets transformed to U+01c3 on upload, which then gets truncated to a c3
byte when sent over OSC, which cannot be decoded as valid UTF-8 (or ascii)This is even more noticeable with avatars that contain Japanese character in their names.

Face Tracking breaks on many avatars

On beta 1931, some avatars' face tracking stops working. I am on quest pro, Virtual Desktop. Some I have had for a while, like face tracking carr, don't work anymore. Others still work fine. My friend who is using Steam Link with a Quest Pro, had the same issue. Getting off the beta, fixes the issue.
