    Slipstream Beta 1.4.0.7 -- v1.4.0-beta.7 (9579500427).

    Linux x86_64 (glibc >= 2.38, x86-64-v2 CPU): *_x86_64.tar.xz
    Ubuntu 24.04+ / Debian 13+ / Mint 22+: *_amd64.deb (sudo apt install ./)
    Windows x64 (unsigned; SmartScreen: More info > Run anyway): *_Setup.exe installer, or *_win64.zip to unpack anywhere

    Changes since v1.4.0-beta.6.

    New features

    • #783 round 12: no snow sheet inside a filter-opened feature at a drop -- no slabs sticking out of trees (a14a3cddeb)

    Fixes

    • #964: keyboard turn-speed slider (0.25x-3x) and Move & View scroll height fix (9579500427)
    • #783: snow dump -- a one-shot numeric readback of a snow mesh build (instrument, no fix) (ac0bd52d8f)

    Other changes

    • VK probes: capture faces end in GENERAL -- no 09600 on a live switch to Raytraced reflections (7b8b4e3f34)
    • VK: no image view for transfer-only images (VUID-VkImageViewCreateInfo-image-04441) (3497bd4a13)
    • Welcome screen: the Firestorm choice's description no longer says typing a letter starts chatting (65f959c68f)
    • #957 Effects: bundled MIT starter pack (SweetFX + prod80) and four shipped presets (d6090d62fc)
    • #783 round 13: no snow sheet on a surface the coarse ring has nothing near -- trees, crowns, narrow ledges keep only the coating (17788f20c3)
    • #783 round 11: the apron under a cover is the LOWEST sheet's -- no skirt walls where the floor's snow meets a roof-covered floor (e54093475f)
    • #783 round 10: one sheet per apron texel -- no more apron curtains stitched across two sheets' fields (ea3f589495)
    • #783: snow slopes in under a cover of ANY height at the angle of repose; the apron always reaches the toe (939a79c1c1)
    • #783: snow slopes in under a high cover at the angle of repose (no vertical walls at the cover's edge) (6809f85311)
    • #960: parcel audio capture falls back to the plugin's own output instead of going silent (0a5edf7c0e)
    • #960: ship libVLC's amem audio output on Windows (parcel audio capture was silent) (72b4a55b57)
    • #950 Startup driver check: warn when Slipstream runs on a translation layer, software renderer, or the wrong GPU (ca93c5397e)
    • #956 Effects: warn about another post-processing tool only when it is actually loaded into the viewer (da2a3df316)
    • Since 5cbed307c3 the snow mesh is rebuilt only every RenderVKWeatherSnowMeshInterval (4) recordings or on camera / grid moves, so footprints and the trench an avatar ploughs showed up several frames late. Local edits now patch only the mesh tiles around them on the very next recording (the grid they were pressed into is published one recording later), at every tier; the interval-gated full build stays for the slow, global change (snowfall, melt, repose). (dcaa4d0fb2)
    • #946 VK snow mesh: the apron dilation converges and loads only its window, rebuilds only when needed, timed (67a1c720e1)
    • #948: Alt+Shift shortcuts stay Alt+Shift by default; opt-in relocation to Ctrl+Alt+Shift (6a7ca138bb)
    • Merged RT shadows: no bright sun lines along normal seams / strand edges in sun shadow (trace shading-away texels, RenderVKRTShadowMergeAwayTrace) (7269bc8f20)
    • VK anim: deferred table shrinks were no-ops re-requested every minute; any anim re-size re-streams the whole arena; per-avatar GPU-data loss log (3f62a298c2)
    • Build: compile the embedded SPIR-V at build time; generated headers leave git (e8483e2f7b)
    • #783 snow edges (round 7) for 1.4: apron to the floor under high covers, no drift cliffs or black slits, sheet edges always skirted, inner apron no longer culled, debug view flags failed aprons (a523671ff2)
    • CI: test-plan job posts the trailer-built test plan to Discord #test-plans for betas (cherry picked from commit fde6d93510, adapted: release/1.4 has no Jetstream) (1c66b5ed49)
    • CI: test plans from commit trailers (Test-Plan / Test-Settings), posted to Discord #test-plans for every Jetstream build and beta (4ba3a64f58)
    • #946 Preferences > Graphics > Advanced > Lighting: Weather quality (Auto / High / Low = RenderVKWeatherVramTier) (bc9d022bec)
    • #946 VK weather: VRAM tier for small cards, timed weather device waits, GPU time outside the timers (bcc91ebbcb)
