Full Changelog:

[2.17.0] - 2025-06-12

• add: Quaternion nodes for KHR_interactivity visual scripting export
• add: Importing PNG files without alpha channel in the Editor now sets them as RGB instead of RGBA, leading to better compression and less memory usage (#858)
• add: Add more bone names to Humanoid import for better compatibility with Unity's FBX importer (#862)
• change: Implemented specification changes for KHR_interactivity from May 2025
• change: Enabled applyRootMotion for humanoid animator to make it consistent with FBX importer (#868)
• fix: Sprite Mesh export threw an exception in non-Simple sprite draw mode. Use Unity 2023.2+ for other sprite modes than "Simple".
• fix: Audio plugin did not correctly check for existance of built-in Unity modules
• fix: Runtime errors with serialization of editor-only components in some newer Unity versions
• fix: Improved performance for extracting all materials from an editor-imported glTF file (#855)
• fix: Marked baseColor and baseColorTexture as main color and main map so they work with Unity's Material.color and Material.mainTexture properties (#864)
• fix: Use correct Auto queue value for imported materials (#866)

[2.16.1] - 2025-05-20

• add: Visual Scripting variables work across multiple scenes now

• add: KHR_interactivity plugin now has a button to install the com.unity.visualscripting package
• add: visual badges for non-ratified and experimental extension plugins
• change: the Export API for KHR_interactivity is still undergoing heavy changes while the extension is being finalized.
• change: removed the KHR_audio sample since it's now shipping with this package
• fix: generated shader converter code doesn't use obsolete API anymore
• fix: various fixes to visual scripting export support through KHR_interactivity
• fix: fixed incorrect namespace that led to compilation errors in some specific cases
• fix: wrong asset import check for textures, which led to non-compressed textures at runtime (Fixes #846)
