Major Update 5 Patch Notes

This post outlines the release date of Cherry VX's next major update and detailed notes on what's in the patch. 

Some highly requested features have been included as well as polishing/updating of shaders, animation, lighting, sound FX and jiggle physics. Some new content has been produced to be compatible with new material shaders etc. but this update is not focussed on content. A bunch of bugs have been squashed too.

Just a quick heads up for Quest users; you will be required to validate again when starting up the updated version the first time. This will be required for all updates moving into the future. As always, if you have issues get in touch and we'll help you out as soon as we can.

Thanks for everyone who has stuck around with their subscriptions! Your generosity has kept this game very much alive and everyone who enjoys Cherry VX (there are thousands of you now) owes you one!

See below for the patch notes outlining everything achieved so far for this update — please note that more will be completed before release.
