Hi there! It sounds like you're seeing graphical glitches in Meta Horizon with squares and lines running through the worlds, right? That can definitely interrupt your experience. Just to better understand, are you using Meta Horizon on your Windows device through Link or Air Link, or is it directly on a Quest headset? Also, have you noticed if this happens in every world or just specific ones?

While I wait for those details, here are some general steps that often help fix graphical glitches like what you described:

1. Update your graphics drivers and Meta Horizon app: Since you’re on Windows, make sure your PC’s graphics drivers are up to date. You can check your GPU manufacturer’s website (like NVIDIA or AMD). Also, ensure the Meta Horizon app and Oculus software are fully updated.

2. Check your Link/Air Link connection settings: If you’re streaming from your PC to Quest via Link or Air Link, unstable or slow connections can cause rendering glitches. Try lowering the streaming bitrate or changing from Air Link to wired Link if possible.

3. Restart the app and device: Closing Meta Horizon completely and rebooting your Quest headset or PC might refresh any temporary glitches.

4. Adjust graphics/performance settings: Sometimes reducing graphics quality in settings can remove artifacts. Try turning off custom depth, fog, or other graphic-specific options if available.

5. Clear cache and reinstall: If glitches persist, clearing app cache (if possible) or reinstalling Meta Horizon can help.

From community reports, some users with Quest 3 have experienced similar graphical glitches in certain worlds, which might be related to software bugs Meta is working on fixing1 2.

Could you let me know if you’ve tried any of these steps already? Also, if you have the Quest version number or Meta Horizon app version, that info helps me tailor advice better.

yes

Thanks for your patience! Just to give you a quick overview, the Meta Horizon app is a social and creative platform where you can dive into hundreds of multiplayer games, explore user-created worlds, and connect with others. It’s available on various devices including Meta Quest headsets, iOS, and Android. Through the app, you can set up your Meta Quest device, manage your profile, and jump into mixed reality experiences—all from your phone if you want9.

Since you're experiencing graphical issues with squares and lines in your worlds, and considering you're on a Windows device, you’re likely accessing Meta Horizon via the Quest headset or PC integration.

Have you tried updating both the Meta Horizon app and your headset firmware recently? Also, ensuring your PC's graphics drivers are current can help a lot since these often affect rendering quality. If you want, I can guide you through those update steps or troubleshoot further based on what you tell me. How would you like to proceed?

i cant add scripts to my worlds either that i build

Hi again! Thanks for sharing that you can’t add scripts to your worlds in Meta Horizon. That helps narrow things down.

This issue sometimes happens due to a few common reasons like script errors, syncing problems, or bugs in the Horizon Worlds editor. Here’s a step-by-step approach to try:

1. Check for Script Errors
Sometimes if your script has errors—like calling functions too many times or problematic loops—it won’t let you add or run scripts properly. Review your script for any loops or repeated calls that might lock it up. There are community discussions about "script execution errors" caused by while loops or excessive function calls that can cause this behavior1.

2. Update Meta Horizon and Desktop Editor
Make sure you’re using the latest versions of both the Meta Horizon app and the Desktop Editor (if you use it). There have been known issues where scripts stop working or the editor is unstable until updates are installed2.

3. Restart and Resync
Restart Meta Horizon and your device. Sometimes, script syncing issues cause scripts not to appear or not be addable. Logging out and back in or reloading the world can help.

4. Check Script Placement
In the Desktop Editor or in-world builder, try adding scripts to different objects. Scripts will not run properly if attached to empty or unsupported objects — one known example is when Codeblock scripts fail on empty game objects7.

5. Look for Known Bugs or Workarounds
There are sometimes temporary bugs affecting script loading, so checking recent Meta Horizon forums or release notes for workarounds can help10.

If these don’t work, could you tell me:
- Are you using the in-VR builder or the Desktop Editor?
- Do you see any specific error messages when you try to add scripts?
- Are these scripts you wrote yourself or sample scripts you’re trying to add?

With those details, I can help pinpoint the issue or help you access community resources with sample scripts too! Would you like me to guide you through checking any of these points?

in vr build

Thanks for letting me know you're building in VR directly within Meta Horizon. Adding scripts in the VR builder can sometimes be tricky due to some limitations or scripting rules in the in-world environment.

To help you get going, here's a quick guide on scripting and development within Meta Horizon VR:

1. Ensure You Have a Developer Account
To use scripting features fully, make sure your Meta account is registered as a Developer account. This unlocks advanced building and scripting capabilities. You can sign in and verify your status through the Meta Horizon app on your mobile device.

2. Use the VR Builder Tools
In VR, you can add “code blocks” to objects for scripting behaviors. But these need to be attached to supported objects, and the scripts themselves must follow certain event-driven patterns without infinite loops or heavy calls. You build scripts by combining code blocks visually.

3. Refer to the Official Development Documentation
Meta offers official tutorials and guides to help build VR experiences, including scripting inside Meta Horizon Worlds:
- Unity developers building custom VR apps for Quest are also supported if you want advanced development outside of Horizon Worlds.
- For in-VR building, the Meta Horizon Developer Center has step-by-step guides on scripting and world creation: Meta Horizon Developer Center.
- The “Unity Hello World” tutorial is a good starting point for VR app development on Quest headsets: Unity Hello World for Meta Quest VR headsets

4. Check for Script Compatibility and Bugs
Sometimes scripts won’t add due to temporary bugs or unsupported script constructs in VR. Try simplifying your script or test with sample scripts to isolate if the problem is script complexity.

5. Restart and Sync
After changes, restart the Meta Horizon app and your headset to ensure scripts are properly synced and loaded.

If you want, I can guide you through signing up for developer access or walk you through adding a simple script in VR step-by-step. Would that be helpful?

Also, here are some great starting resources for VR development with Meta Horizon:

tamika7912 worlds are streaking and i thing its a bug

Hi! Thanks for letting me know about the streaking issue in Tamika7912's worlds—it does sound like it could be a bug. There have been some recent reports from users experiencing graphical glitches or “streaking” effects in certain Meta Horizon worlds, which Meta is actively looking into.

Here are a few quick things to try that often help clear up these visual bugs:

1. Restart your headset and the Meta Horizon app
Sometimes a simple restart can refresh the graphics rendering and clear temporary glitches.

2. Check for Meta Horizon and headset software updates
Make sure your Meta Horizon app and your headset firmware are both fully updated, as fixes for known bugs often come via updates.

3. Try accessing the world from a different device or account
This can help identify if the issue is specific to your setup or the world itself.

4. Report the bug through Meta’s official channels
If the streaking persists, that feedback helps the developers identify and prioritize fixing the issue.

Also, some users have found that reducing graphics settings or adjusting connection methods (if using Air Link or Link) can help reduce visual artifacts1 6.

If you’d like, I can help you go through these steps or assist with reporting this bug properly to Meta’s dev team. Would you prefer that?

streaking in glitch in Tamika7912 worlds and Colorado Sky worlds

Thanks for letting me know you’re seeing streaking glitches in both Tamika7912's worlds and Colorado Sky worlds. This kind of visual artifact has been reported by other Meta Horizon users, so it does seem likely to be a bug affecting certain worlds or rendering on some devices.

Here’s what I recommend trying to address this:

1. Restart your headset and Meta Horizon app
A fresh start often clears temporary rendering glitches. Completely power down your headset, wait a minute, then power it back on and relaunch Meta Horizon.

2. Update Meta Horizon and headset software
Make sure both your headset’s firmware and the Meta Horizon app are fully updated. Meta regularly releases fixes for bugs like these in updates8 10.

3. Try different connection methods
If you’re using Air Link or Link (streaming from PC), try switching between them or using the headset standalone to see if the issue persists. Sometimes connection or streaming bitrate can affect graphics quality1.

4. Test on another device or account
If possible, try logging into another headset or account and visiting the same worlds to check if the problem is device/account-specific or widespread.

5. Report the bug to Meta
Since this appears to be a repeated issue with specific worlds, submitting a detailed bug report through the Meta Horizon app’s support or feedback tool helps their dev team investigate and prioritize a fix.

If after these steps the streaking remains, I can assist you with the bug report process or check if there are any pending patches scheduled. Would you like help with that?

Are you able to try the restart and update steps now?
