Beat Saber URP Beta Update v1.43.100
Hey players,
We have released a new update to the URP Beta branch. This update introduces LIV support, SmoothCamera fixes, and general improvements to performance and environments.
If you are already participating in the beta, just update the game on the same branch. If you have not yet joined, instructions on how to switch branches can be found below. We plan to keep the beta running for approximately one month, though this timeline is subject to change.
If you encounter any issues or notice anything unusual, please report the problem using this form: https://forms.gle/pJsepEJo6az35QHY9
Your feedback is very important to us and helps us ensure a smooth transition to URP for all players.

FAQ
What is URP?
As Unity is deprecating its legacy Built-in Render Pipeline, we are transitioning Beat Saber to the Universal Render Pipeline (URP). This update enables us to customize and extend the rendering process to better meet the needs of Beat Saber.
How to test?
Play the game as usual.
Why do you need beta testing?
Switching to URP is a big step. Your feedback directly helps us prepare a smooth live release.
How to report any issue?
Describe the issue or anything unusual as detailed as possible using this form: https://forms.gle/pJsepEJo6az35QHY9
When will the URP build be delivered to the Live branch?
We don't have a release date yet because we need to make sure everything is properly tested and ready.
