5.8.9
Again sorry for the Back and forth updating between 5.7.4 and some of the 5.8.* branches.
Hopefully this has fixed most of the lingering issues and Patch notes can be found below:
[h2]Fixes[/h2]
- Fixed Brightness Slider, minimum now 3% by text set and 20% by scroll bar
- Fixed various Re-center / space drag issues
- Fixed psuedo room-setup launch on auto-apply chaperone
- Increased logging around Space Drag
- Changed wording in offsets tab from "seated recenter" to "recenter"
[h2]Features[/h2]
- Battery Tracker overlay control - ability in utility tab to now disable the overlay for batteries on trackers if you don't want it.
- Desktop Mode Improvements
- Steam launch option on steam there should be an option to launch into desktop mode (this is just the [code single]--desktop-mode parameter)
- Always launch as Desktop Mode in settings tab you will now have a checkbox to always launch as desktop mode, if the screen is blank I would recommend this as an option as it is fully functional now, just will not be in the SteamVR dashboard.
- Bindings Tab on Desktop this will now open your default browser to the SteamVR binding interface, it varies slightly from overlay version as you will have to navigate to OVRAS instead of being dropped directly on the screen.
- Added F13-F19 as Keyboard Options via [code single]G3-G9
- No HMD Toggle in SteamVR tab added toggle to change steamvr setting to not require an HMD
- Power Button launches SteamVR in SteamVR tab added toggle to change steamvr setting on whether or not controller button will turn on steamVR
[h2]Fixes[/h2]
- Space Drag Changes - Removed some checks to fix an issue where users could not drag out of the box. This fix should mainly effect non Lighthouse users.
- initialization Changes - Will now retry SteamVR initialization if it does not work - this may not work 100% as intended and is something to watch, this may fix some of the automatic crashing users were having.
[h2]Misc[/h2]
- Removed old-style motion This was mostly a legacy feature, and with testing I don't think this feature is required any longer
- Removed adjust chaperone This Feature is no longer required due to recent-ish changes to chaperone behavior from Valve
- Made Some Minor Changes to Space Drag code to optimize it slightly
- Removed Simple Recenter Was not exposed to users, and was just dead code.
- Removed Allow External Chaperone Edits - Mostly deprecated should not effect other programs
