Version: Reality 5.7

From 5.6 to to 5.7

Reality 5.7 introduces impactful changes you have to consider:

  • All existing user-linked API Keys were deleted during the migration to the standalone API Key system. You must recreate API Keys after migration. Please read REST API Key Authentication System.
  • Legacy Configuration Host ports are automatically updated to new default port 50052 during installation. Also read Firewall Configuration.
  • Reality Hub now enforces plugin states as locked, blocked, or left to Reality's defaults. For more details, please read Default Plugins.
  • Engine Groups removed from Configuration and Launcher modules. Aliases are now superseding Engine Groups. For more details, read Logical Channels Using Aliases
  • Enable Launch for Unreal Engine checkbox is removed since the Unreal Engine Vanilla is no longer supported.
  • A new Engine Ownership system is introduced. Engines are now owned by the Hub that starts and manages them. Engines that are not owned by the current Hub cannot be edited or controlled from the UI. You may notice previously-editable engines become locked (N/A or Idle) if they are managed or started by another Hub or if their loader is disconnected. This is expected behavior and part of enforcing correct ownership.
