[1621] 'Late joiners' not visible/no audio
available in future release
-peas-
- Join world.
- Someone new joins the world after you, person is not blocked and does not have you blocked.
- New person that joined is not visible to you, has no nameplate, has no audio. User still shows in the "In Instance" list. All users that join after you join are also completely invisible.
- Rejoin the world, users that were previously invisible are now visible and have audio.
Confirmed with others on build 1621. Only tested in The Great Pug, so not sure if this is world-specific. Issue was remedied by going to live or build 1610 (steam-audio-beta).
Logs were provided to VRChat support as requested by a staff member in the #open-beta-discussion channel, to preserve privacy.

Ran into this today on 1622. This canny is likely related. https://feedback.vrchat.com/open-beta/p/audio-related-information-is-not-communicated-to-other-players

Here is a video from Debug Window 4. From a run around of the world as well as friends not showing up, the people who have "statistics" not updating in the debug window are not visible to me.
What I've noticed is that people _eventually_ show up, but not for a couple of minutes, in which a join notification pops up but the user is immediately in front of you as if they were instantly teleported, but then you cannot hear their audio. Audio eventually comes back in 5-10 minutes as well.

_tau_ I am still experiencing this on 1622. I have had people completely invisible, and people who are visible but I cannot hear. I do not have them blocked or muted. Those on the non-beta branch can hear and see those I can't. No changes to my setup, avatar, or world other than updating to 1622.
~~Since I updated so quickly, I will find out next time it happens if they are potentially on an older beta.~~
I have confirmed on 1622 that someone on live (1610) was invisible to me as if they were blocked. A rejoin brought them back.

was having this last night at Midnight Bar, i could not do door duties sop we had to stick a questie staff member to do it, as they somehow avoided this on the quest beta.

We have a
potential
fix coming in the next update, which will be 1622. We are somewhat confident it fixes the issue, but not 100% - so please do keep an eye out for any re-occurances of this bug once that update ships!You can ping this ticket here if you see it again.

I also encountered this issue last night. I was in an instance and a friend joined, but I was unable to see them until I rejoined the instance. My partner, who was on live, was able to see my friend without issue.
I believe my friend was also on the open beta branch, as they made a comment about the pronoun tags showing in game.

This happened to me and my friend last night, unfortunately. I've saved logs for this, and can give them over soon.

Accoring to my logs/VRCX i had 28 user in my instance (wrld_993885d0-eb99-41f1-89e9-4b23b7cb2765:85465~group(grp_f896e228-b13a-43c2-9578-2e1771bf112f)~groupAccessType(public)~region(use)) in my here tab were 77 shown. I could only see 28, while there were 77 in my instance for others.
It wasn't always like "everybody after me", friends rejoining were often (not always) working. Sometimes a friend of mine and me could see different people in the instance while we joined at about the same time. Sometimes some people appeared after some times in front of me. The time could be everything between some single digit minutes up to hours. toggling mute/block were brining the user sometimes back, but most of the tries did not work. I had this issue so far in every instance with "some" (more then 5?) people. Restart of the client didn't fix it.
I'm sure i saw the bug even before but assumed somebody just had me blocked and didn't took note. The instances i have proofen seen this bug in:

When I entered a newly created instance with a few friends, one of their avatars and nameplates were not visible.
In my case, only the player's capsule was left near the spawn point, and I could hear their voice coming from there.
I was in the open beta and they were not.

I had a similar problem, my friends couldn't see me it was like the gaslight bug was turned up to 11, Had a friend who rejoined three times and each time someone else couldn't see him. Also I haven't experienced this but two friends on the beta has had a issue where occasionally audio got all weird it was like they were having a connection issue, everyone's avatar frame-rate got really choppy along with audio then a bunch of audio synced up at once. This took place in a Furry hideout group public world with 40+ people. We all got out of the beta and everything was back to normal.
