471.0

I like the idea of knowing where i'm being invited to. however, when getting invite to a public room, the person sending the invite isnt getting the decline message.

I just updated and opened a couple of my rooms. One of them, only 189k in size and nothing in it took just over a minute to load. I have room that is 4385k that took one minute 30 seconds to load with furniture and animation. Though it seems to load fairly quickly after the first time it loads. I have yet to try it with a public room yet. I also notice it is still a lot slower when direct 3d is used as compared to opengl.

Yes This has been happening ever since I got on IMVU. You only receive a decline message if you are inviting from a private chat. Maybe they will add that to public rooms, who knows.

I'm experiencing extreme lag when editing in Create. My rooms are taking forever to load. Yes, I've cleaned my Cache.

So far since i have updated i can't do anything without immediately crashing, and i know it isn't my computer as it was working fine last night, i re-downloaded and it didn't help, so yea i hate this new update.

no it still works but it still says there is a corrupt file somewhere everything still works but you just get a corrupt file notification everytime the same thing happend on the last update as well. Also i just found out that everything is super slow and when i go to change outfits i get a not responding notification and the game freezes for like five minutes.

I am losing my mind, i sent a help ticket but that will be a while to be responded to, all i really want is to be able to log onto IMVU and enter a chat without immediately crashing, i am to the point where i wish i would have never clicked the update now button, and probably never will again i just want my old version back or this one to work without waiting a month to get on.

Music is still cutting off and such :/

Walk Off ... why does that have it's own tab instead of going where the rest of the games are? O.o that's a waste of space and quite frankly an eye sore because I have no interest in it whatsoever. Better yet why it is on the first page of tabs? Because in my opinion there are much more important tabs than that.

I do like the new invite system with it showing the room location of where you're being invited to. Please keep that.

Edited to add: Okay now i'm getting crashed out for no reason. And I only had one room open O.o

well tryed the newest one, it sucks, worked for 5 minutes and then the frame rate dropped to 1, the screen froze and i crashed shortly after, it started out at 30 then slowly went down and down till it got to 1 and stayed. i still say it has a memory leak. back to 467.0 i go.
