Changelog for 03-10-2022

Join in with our Halloween mini-game Spooky Skeletons! Maybe you'll get a prize if you get the highest score?

SPOOK SKELETONS - Season 3: The spookening! (It's exactly the same as the last 2 years, bugs and all)

Added:
- SPOOKY SKELETONS ARE BACK! Check out our 3rd season of the Spooky Skeletons mini-game! Click the pumpkin in the Home tab!
- Added 'Move Delay' slider to Global Settings > Window Movement.
- Added '?' next to 'Re-center Window' in Window Settings to provide a very brief explanation of what this feature does. (Tis 'tip' is not yet implemented in Simulator Mode due to limitations)

Changes:
- Separated 'Re-center snap angle' into Vertical and Tilt sliders so each axis can be controlled individually.
- App can no longer be minimized to tray until the Oculus warning has been acknowledged. (Only need to click 'I understand' once)
- Added notification to let the user know when startup is complete and OVR Toolkit can be used. (To avoid confusion about why F8 isn't working or wristwatch may not yet be visible)
- Wristwatch will no longer attempt to match fpsVR overlay opacity as this could lead to situations where the wristwatch was invisible due to fpsVR not appearing for some reason or another. (Wrong hand, not quite the right angle, fpsVR closed after OVR Toolkit found it, etc.)

Bug fixes:
- Fixed Oculus warnings not appearing in the launcher.
- Touchscreen emulation will now work as intended when the left controller is turned off.
- A backspace press is no longer required after toggling Head Gaze in Simulator Mode.

Changes:
- Curved overlays can now remain curved when not level.
- Recenter Window can now be used when lying down.
- Curved overlays can now be used when attached to a device.
- Re-added functional to hold keyboard keys to spam the key.

Bug fixes:
- Fixed an issue where the keyboard layout generator could get stuck in a loop after a keyboard fails to generate.

Thanks Valve for making changes to OpenVR which made these changes possible!

Changelog for 17-08-2022

17-08-2022

Added:
- Added wrist notification for outdated Tundra Tracker bootloader. (Leads to inaccurate battery reporting and poor battery life)
- Added Console Output window to Custom Apps Debug page.

Changes:
- Wrist overlay notifications can now be cleared and will stack. (When one is closed, any queued notifications will be displayed)
- Keyboard language is now checked against the Windows keyboard language every second instead of every 5 seconds.

Bug fixes:
- Fixed discolored transparent backgrounds in Custom Apps.
- Fixed an issue where the keyboard language may not automatically change when changing it in Windows. (Turns out Windows caches the keyboard layout until you manually call activate keyboard? Weird)
- Fixed an issue where the keyboard layout generator could get stuck in a loop after a keyboard fails to generate.

Web API:
- Added 'SendOSCMessageArray' function to web API to support VRChat chatbox.
- Added 'app-opened' Web API event.
