{{Stub}}
This page is dedicated to VRChat features that were once included in the VRChat client, or announced by VRChat before removing the feature or depreciating further support for said feature. This page does not include features that are currently in development, or have been unofficially "rumored" to being implemented.

==Booping==
[[File:Boop Button.png|thumb|Boop button in a user profile.|170x170px]]
'''Booping''' was a [[social]] feature revealed in the [https://ask.vrchat.com/t/developer-update-30-may-2024/24821 May 30th Developer Update] allowing friends to send a "boop" to eachother. This could have been attached with any emoji including custom emojis, only if the user was an active [[VRChat+]] subscriber and have uploaded custom emojis to their gallery. When the recipient of a boop opened their notifications, the emoji attached to the boop would've been fired locally in a “Boop Explosion”, a blast of the emoji from the boop. Boop recipients would have also received a push notification from the VRChat app on mobile devices. Boops would have only been able to be sent to friends, and could have been disabled.

The feature was implemented into the [[Open Beta]] branch on June 6th, due to community reception, the feature was removed June 18th with the [https://discord.com/channels/189511567539306508/503009489486872583/1252764858256986195 following message on the official VRChat Discord]:<blockquote>'''No Booping No More'''

If you were paying attention to previous builds, you might've noticed there's something missing from this update: Booping. That's intentional. While we were excited about testing the feature, it was clear that folks weren't into it.

We're not interested in forcing a feature on the community that they're not into, so we're pulling it. In the future, we might try testing a reworked version of Booping, but it's unlikely to be something we try for awhile.

While it didn't quite go the way we wanted it to, we still appreciate the candid and honest feedback from the community.</blockquote>

==Guided Mode==
[[File:Guided Mode.webp|thumb|220x220px|A screencap of the "Guided Mode" menu.]]
'''Guided Mode''' was a [[Menus|menu]] and UI feature intended for users who were new to VRChat, however any user could enable and use the Guided Mode menu. The Guided Menu heavily simplified world and avatar exploration and tweaking for settings. It was revealed on the [https://youtu.be/MyrEvss-Dzw&t=77 VRChat 2023.2.2 Video Patchnotes], and was present in the VRChat client for a few months before being silently removed.

== Panoramic/360° screenshots (VRChive)==
The old [[camera]] menu had 2 options to take panoramic (360-degree) photos

* Panorama
*VRChive Panorama

The 'Panorama' option would save the panoramic to your device, while 'VRChive Panorama' would automatically upload the panoramic to VRChive, a social media platform focusing on VR, making it easy to share with friends on social media.

The feature was temporarily removed during an [[Open Beta|open beta]] build for the [https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/vrchat-202141 UI 1.5 Update], but haven't returned since. Cited with the [https://discord.com/channels/189511567539306508/503009489486872583/898728604299563068 following reason on the official VRChat Discord]:
[[File:Panorama.webp|thumb|right|Old quick menu, with panorama and VRChive panorama buttons]]
<blockquote>
- The Panorama button in the Quick Menu has been removed due to several issues. There are many compounding bugs with this feature, and trying to fix it right now will slow down this release. We'll circle back around and implement it properly at a later time.

-VRChive Panorama has also been removed for similar reasons
</blockquote>

==PhysSound Support ==
'''PhysSound''' is a Unity asset that allows for sounds to be played when physics objects collide with each other or with static colliders. World authors were able to install the PhysSound Asset Package in their world projects.

Support for it was dropped in [[VRChat SDK|SDK3]]. You are expected to create your own replacement using [[Udon]].

== Deleted Roles ==

==== Veteran User ====
Veteran User role is a role that was given to users who contributed consistently to VRChat, seen as a level above Trusted Users. The role is no longer attainable, and can only be seen outside of VRChat by reading API responses. When Veteran was still client-side, it was a yellow colored role.

==== Legendary User ====
Legendary User role is a role that was given to users who had the Veteran User Role and had VRC+ (or contributed significantly to VRChat in some way).

The Legendary User role was removed from surface-level VRChat with Veteran. When Legendary was still client-side, it was a pink colored role.

==Request Host==
'''Request Host''' was a button on the [[Menus|Quick menu]] used to request a host (VRChat Moderator) to join your instance to handle urgent moderation issues. It was removed October 27, 2017 and replaced with a "Report abuse" button that would allow you to report users similar to the report button in the current version of VRChat.
[[File:QuickMenu Old.webp|thumb|right|alt=screenshot of the old quick menu |screenshot of the old quick menu, "Request Host" button is in the bottom Right next to the close button]]

== Web Panels ==
'''Web Panels''' was a feature in VRChat that allowed users to access and display web pages directly within the game environments. This feature was introduced to enhance interactivity and provide direct access to internet resources without leaving the VR space. However, due to emerging security concerns identified by the development team, this feature was disabled to protect users.

The removal took place in August 2018, a decision driven by the necessity to safeguard the community against potential vulnerabilities that could be exploited through the web panel interface. The official announcement and further details regarding the security issues leading to this decision were documented and shared with the community through VRChat's official [https://medium.com/@vrchat/security-update-web-panels-4699fa0be103 Medium] and a Steam update on August 17, 2018.
