You know of course we can see the differences in you imaging.

What we can not see.. are your original image, the setting you used in your project. To much can go wrong with user settings.

Please help us by providing your original image, project file so we can see what setting values you used.

Also please provide your website URL so we can see this work on your web page.

If we can NOT look at your project file to view the settings... then we would only be guessing.

Hi,
Look at your Interpolation Filter (PC= File => Settings => Images, Mac= Pano2VR => Preferences=> Images)
The Default is Mitchell which can be a little soft. Try Lanczos3 or any of the below as this gives a sharper image.

The other thing is Cube face size, make sure that are the same size.
Are you using the mobile tab? Are the settings the same?

With 4.5.1 consider using the multi resolution tab instead of mobile.

Just done a side by side test with 3.1.4 and 4.5.1, looking at the cube faces and the output in the player.
Both look the same to me, I tested with cube face size of 1500, image quality 90 and filter set to Lanczos3.

If you still see a difference can you upload you input image and you p2vr file you used with 3.1.4.
Regards,
Hopki
