5.1.0 Released

The important Stuff


This update's primary feature is a re-worked Center marker. It will follow you with space drag, and always stay in the center of your play-space~!

It mirrors your chaperone opacity, and Color.
It also tracks 1/2/3+ turns in L/R direction and gives a visual indicator.
It tracks rotation based on what direction your headset was when you turned it on. This can be reset in the statistics page or in the chaperone->additional chaperone options.

The old center marker is now accesible as "legacy center marker" in chaperone->additional chaperone options

  • Added Chaperone Color Controls
  • Added Chaperone Style Control

  • Added New Center Marker (tells rotation + moves w/ space adjustments)
