MateEngine X3.3

Avatar Walking on Desktop (Experimental)


We heard your feedback and worked on it. Avatars can now move freely on your desktop. When an avatar is idle, it can walk on its own to the left or right. If the avatar is not idle (for example, dancing or playing another animation), it will not walk away.
This feature is experimental and can be enabled in the Settings menu by scrolling all the way down.
Known issue: the avatar can still walk while the Settings menu is open, so be careful.

Window Sitting Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where switching to a custom or DLC model and then back to the main Zome model could cause layering problems during window sitting.

  • Adjusted the sitting Y height for certain animations to fit better on windows and the taskbar.

Window Sitting New

  • Added 1 new sitting animation.

General Fixes

  • Fixed an issue that could cause a RAM leak when switching to certain modded avatars.

  • Fixed an issue that could cause deletion of mods under certain conditions.

  • Fixed an issue that could cause frame drops in other games when MateEngine was run in Memory Optimization Mode.

Known issues we noticed and are working on

  • The avatar can jump off the taskbar when you move the taskbar to another monitor.

  • Avatar hiding does not work reliably with multi-monitor setups.

  • The Avatar Dance Player has method-related issues when running a second instance.

  • Shuffle mode does not work when using the normal Play button.

  • Saving volume for the Dance Player slider.
