OVR Advanced Settings

Changes -space drag movement expectations with regards to re-centers The new movement expectation is on re-center you should lose your verticality, your play area will be oriented towards current HMD direction, and new "center" set at new location. This should be consistent across all hmd's - Added default bindings for new controllers - Added additional logging Fixes - space fix will now no longer be greyed out and work in most environments - space drag Movement is partially restored in OpenXR based titles. Specifically Vertical Movement - rotation adjust will work again across everything - Adjusted initialization behavior or autosaved chaperone, should fix various cases of temporary rotation and chaperone movement. Known Issues - space drag performance is very poor in openXR games, further adjustment may be needed. - OpenXR drag rotation offset sometimes you may have an initial rotation in OpenXR titles from using drag.

Just a Quick Update: With the soon to be released Frame, There have been a lot of things changing in SteamVR, and as such certain features are effected. Beta is updated to reflect some of these changes, and fix issues. Based on feedback or future changes Valve may make on their end some of these changes may get rolled back or altered further. I know it can be frustrating when things break suddenly, unfortunately more often than not these changes can make it out into SteamVR beta/public, without me having really any idea it's effected until I notice it or reports come in. If you have an issue that pops up please post something, It can help immensely in finding things out. The best way to report issues is in the discord. So what's changed in Beta: Space Fix tab will now work regardless of environment Space Drag Movement is partially restored in OpenXR titles, specifically vertical movement only, The performance of such is not Super great, and will probably require additional tweaks in the future to improve the user experience. Space Drag Movement Defaults Changed Essentially this is changing the behavior or "recenter" events slightly, the expected behavior is now

Fixes - Fixed an issue where space drag would not properly initialize if a user's base stations were asleep - Fixed an issue preventing third party apps to adjust chaperone properly note: this is the default behavior, but changes will only properly apply when there are no current offsets with space drag. - Changed the space fix tab features to be based off of space drag logic Known Issues With Mixed Set-ups - IF you use OVR space calibrator, then we have an incompatibility with the Paste chaperone bounds automatically when geometry resets setting.

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: 5.8.9 Fixes - 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" Previous (5.8.*) Features - 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 --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 ver
