Recent quality of life enhancements
HelixVision now supports a sharpening filter, which dramatically improves the look of the game on the big screen. It's on by default, but you can disable this using left controller.
Or even the keyboard or an Xbox or PS4 controller! That's right, you can now change all the settings in HelixVision using either the keyboard or an attached controller. Off to your left out of your field of view, you'll find the instructions. The only caveat is that the mirror window needs to be frontmost, otherwise the inputs go to the game instead.
Games with unusual aspect ratios are fully supported now, so you can setup a 4:3 view, which can match the VR experience a bit better. If you want ultra-wide screen 21:9, that works now too. Default is still 16:9, but the big screen will resize to match the settings you specify in the game itself.
If you liked or hated the snow, it's now off by default because it takes a small but measurable amount of performance. You can bring it back using the left controller or keyboard or xbox controller by cycling through the environment.
We continue to add game support as we fix and understand problems, and we recently added some great games like Final Fantasy XIV, SOMA, Quern, and updated the launcher for GTA5 after Rockstar changed the launch sequence. We've added support for OpenGL games, and will be adding games like Amnesia, Chronicles of Riddick, and hopefully SW:Knights of the Old Republic after smoothing out their launches.
As always, if you are having problems, please contact us on the forums.
For suggestions and game requests, please add them on our website.
