Faster VRM model switching. Shader compilation now happens during background preloading instead of blocking the reveal, and the renderer is created directly with your saved quality preset — no more long stall when switching VRM models.
Workshop model cards now show a single category badge. VRM and MMD cards no longer display a duplicate badge in the top-right corner — each card carries exactly one label.
Fixes
Switching pet categories no longer flashes models in a wrong position. The old model stays put and the new model is revealed only after its window position, size and camera are all settled — no more misplaced frames in either direction.
Models keep their screen position when switching categories. The pet's position is now anchored to the model's feet rather than the window corner, so switching categories with different window shapes no longer makes the pet jump around.
The Shimeji category entry is hidden in Settings. This mode is no longer supported; users currently on Shimeji are unaffected.
