This update implements the following changes:
- New webcam face tracker: Google Mediapipe. Comparable quality to NVIDIA tracker but no special GPU needed and works with hand tracking too. WINDOWS ONLY for now.
- Added opacity to Screen/Multiply ArtMesh Color presets. Works with hotkeys as well and is compatible with VNet.
- VNet: Auto-retry for all uploads/downloads. If any upload/download fails for models or items, it is now retried until it succeeds. This fixes a bug where sometimes models would not load for collab participants.
- VNet: Increased maximum session time limit: One VNet session can now be up to 45 hours before it has to be restarted.
- VNet: Increased model file size limits. One model can now be up to 250 MB total (compressed) with a single-file-limit of 95 MB. The maximum file count per model is now 250, increased from 150.
- Android/iOS: You can now permanently turn off the “on-screen hotkeys” (white circles) on mobile when no model is loaded. To do that, make sure no model is loaded and check the “hotkeys” settings tab.

The following minor changes/improvements were also made:
- Android: Fixed bug where models were always rendered solid black on some devices including the Samsung S23.
- Re-enabled automatic GPU priority setting since the bug that caused crashes has been fixed.
- Models can no longer be loaded when they’re directly in the “Live2DModels” folder. This now shows a warning instead. A model should ALWAYS be in an own subfolder in the “Live2DModels” folder, something like “Live2DModels/MyCoolModel”
- ...and a few more minor bugfixes.
