Steam Patch Notes
Official update history
Build 16240753
Oct 31, 2024
Updated hotfix should correct the controller tracking issue after SteamVR 2.8 update. The issue was related to OpenXR-SteamVR runtime and would not effect the OculusXR runtime.
If you switched to the SteamVR beta - Previous version in order to temporarily fix this, it is now recommended to switch back to the main SteamVR branch.
This ultimately fixed the issue:

Patch 6
Patch 6 introduces a new circuitry system and basic fixtures to the Marrow SDK. The circuitry system enables you to implement simple cause and effect electrical circuits in your levels. Fixtures are spawnable dynamic objects that are affixed to the world (example: buttons, levers, doors, etc.). Additionally, the new Impact Properties from Patch 5 have now been deployed throughout 90% of Bonelab's content with the rest coming in Patch 7.
https://i.imgur.com/KU7bUnT.gif
See the fixtures and circuitry in action in an updated Test Chamber 07!
Circuits
By combining various simple math nodes to create inputs and outputs, you can assemble functional puzzles quickly. These building blocks tie together functionally with fixtures and events to flesh out interactive ideas. With some clever wiring this can unlock seriously powerful level showcases.

Fixtures
The workflow for fixtures has taken a lot of effort to get right, we're confident that we've cracked it and are premiering it with some simple fixtures to use with circuits. Armed with the most commonly used pieces for building electric puzzles, we expect Lava Gang to add a lot more interaction to their level creations. Patch 6 includes buttons, levers, a slider and an airlock door.

Circuits can also be triggered off zones and tagged entities.

Different activation types greatly increase the variety of use in puzzles

QoL
In the SDK, modders can now directly drag & drop spawnables from the asset warehouse into the inspector. When dragging a Fixture from the asset warehouse the spawnable side and static side are positionally linked, after placing in a scene, both will need to be selected at the same time to re-position.

Bug Fixes
The avatar switching and bodylog switching bug from patch 5 has been fixed. Additionally the skybox not rendering in the spectator camera has been fixed. Rendering
Many rendering optimizations implemented including a focus on particle VFX, and spawning/despawning. ---------------------------

Build 15069246
Jul 18, 2024
Patch 5
Today's patch focuses on bringing impact properties and Stress Level Zero's grid wall assets to Marrow SDK 1.1.0 along a few other important features for level creation, responding to feedback from Patch #4, and further optimizing build size, overall performance and hitches via consolidating the materials that are used in game. Check out these changes in our updated Test Chambers mod: Test Chambers
Zone Aggro
Zone Aggro enables spawned enemies to be alerted to players in zones. Previously in mod levels enemies would not react to the player firing a gun, now with Zone Aggro they will be alerted.

Surface Data Cards
Surface Data Cards are for defining the Impact Properties of colliders. For example, this determines how a surface reacts to being impacted VFX wise. Additionally, these can recommend a physics material to apply to associated colliders. (NOTE: This is so hot off the press that even we don't have the the entirety of Bonelab’s static geometry surface data card passed until Patch7)
https://i.imgur.com/l6VQMQK.gif
Spawn Force
Spawn Force decorator applies a directional and/or angular velocity force when a CrateSpawner object is spawned.

https://i.imgur.com/nuYJfh0.gif
Spawn Force even works with spawned enemies, please use responsibly
GridWalls
GridWalls, Grid Mats, GlowMats are now available for modders via our asset backlot. These are the same prefabs and materials we use to layout levels.
https://i.imgur.com/YfNnx6N.gif
Player Rig
Player Rig adjustments have been made to further improve the physicality and control. The noticeable change is that the arm's twist now factors in the range of motion and neutral of the wrist. By getting the elbow closer to your real elbow, the hand is able to better represent the desired final pose of the hand. Bonelab's player uniquely doesn't simply use IK to show a body connecting your hands to your head, instead there is a fully physical body with spine, elbow and wrist constraints that art is directly drawn upon. This has been a massive but worthwhile challenge that began in 2020 and will continue for years to come. Under the hood, some members of Lava Gang may discover that a lot of invisible changes have happened to the rig, the code and prefabs have migrated from Bonelab to Marrow, better for future development and accessibility in the SDK.
https://i.imgur.com/OUcQx9h.gif
Also, an unexposed 'Active Ragdoll' may be discovered as a work in progress for a rig that can tumble in 6DOF.
Material Cleanup Pass
All levels gamewide received a material cleanup pass to trim and reduce the number of unnecessary materials and improve visual consistency. This also has an added benefit of reducing some chunk-load hitches as the memory footprint for many areas has been dramatically reduced. The full game size is also reduced slightly by this consolidation.

VFX Cleanup
Impact and particle vfx got a pass across the board in an effort to make visuals more consistent.

SDK - Surface Data Tools
In the SDK is an overlay tool to quickly apply Impact Properties to surfaces in levels, we are hoping this speeds up level updating for Patch5.

We’re excited to release our second patch for BONELAB! Since launch the team has primarily been focused on listening to collective feedback to best prioritize quality of life fixes and bugs, but we’ve found some time for some additional secrets and items as well.
Interaction received a tune pass and some bug fixes. Near field tracking and occluded controllers are now handled better resulting in better gun handling and body slot interaction. Shouldering has been improved and will continue to be improved in the future. The player is perpetually a work in progress: Boneworks was year 3, Bonelab is currently in year 6, we have many years to go. Thank you for participating in the journey, the ceiling for VR interaction is so high.
We re-tuned Index grip interactions to take better advantage of grip force for holding objects.
Saving has been improved. The Hub will now persist your inventory from the last campaign level you’ve completed. This will improve the experience of replaying the campaign after you’ve already beat the game.
Keycards are now functional. Each ID badge can unlock a hidden developer room, each with at least one new unlockable object. We hope you enjoy finding what secrets they reveal!
https://i.imgur.com/BLda948.gif
We’ve added new collectable spawnable items, including a M1 Garand with a fixed bayonet. Enjoy using these props to get creative in sandboxes!
https://i.imgur.com/H2x6gU3.gif
The majority of levels have received some tweaks including encounter adjustments, lighting, bug fixing, optimizations and easter eggs. Sprint Bridge received a large rework adding enemy encounters including a helicopter to avoid.
