VRChat 2024.1.1

New & Shiny

Traditional Chinese is now available as a tooltip language.
- In addition, we'll now attempt to detect the language of your operating system on first launch and automatically localize if your language is available.
There is now a Clear button on the in-game keyboard.
You can now tap/click the headers of UI menus in order to scroll them back up to the top quickly! This works for all scrollable Quick Menu and Main Menu pages, even the wings.
- You can toggle this feature off in settings if you decide that it's not for you.
Groups tab & Search result UI improvements!
- Groups are now searchable using the global search UI.
- Multiple small improvements to the new search UI, such as better defaulting to "All" to get to the best result quicker.
Added an Avatar Details button to the Main Menu profile page. This button is the same as the one found on the Quick Menu, which lets you easily inspect other player's avatars and impostors!
