• VirusTotal: scan report (1 of 68: DeepInstinct, a machine-learning engine, flags the mod's DLL, as it has in earlier builds; the DLL 1 of 65, the launcher 0 of 71). Windows Defender finds nothing.

If you have 0.1.6 or later, the launcher offers this update by itself (or use "Check now" on the Checks and log
tab). Otherwise unzip over the old folder or anywhere new, and run EternalVR.Launcher.exe. Your launcher
settings carry over.

Windows Defender may on some PCs quarantine the launcher as "Trojan:Win32/Bearfoos.A!ml". That's a false positive:
the launcher isn't code-signed yet and every release is a new file Windows hasn't seen, so Defender's cloud model
sometimes guesses (the "!ml"). To get it back: Windows Security > Virus & threat protection > Protection history,
open the entry, Actions > Restore.

This build was launch-tested on the Steam version (in a level) and the Game Pass version (up to the main menu), on my
test PC with the OpenXR simulator. None of the changes below have been played in a headset yet.

Playing on a lower-end PC? I'd love to hear how it runs:
tell me your card, settings and how it played.

What's new

• Export report now tells you how to capture a bug that shows in one eye. If something looks different in each
  eye, a normal or Virtual Desktop screenshot only shows one of them. The mod has its own capture for that: in the
  headset, hold the left Menu button and pull a trigger where it happens (SteamVR with Quest/Rift controllers: both
  sticks pressed + a trigger), and it saves each eye and the HUD. After you export a report, the dialog now says how
  many of those captures are in it, or, if there are none, how to take one. The Export report button's tooltip says
  it too.

Known issues

• Left-handed, a few things are still rough or untried. The first time you bring out each weapon after
  starting the game the arms stay the game's for about half a second, then the gun shifts 1 to 2.5 cm into your
  hand (the Crucible swings in from much further, about 70 cm). Glory kills and the Sentinel Hammer haven't been
  tried left-handed yet. Turning off Show arms (Play tab) hides both arms.
• With motion controllers off (gamepad), the capture button combo isn't there: on a gamepad every button belongs
  to the game.
• Swimming left-handed, the glove sits about 11 cm from your hand.
• On a Ballista shot the shoulder end of the arm can jump for one frame (up to about 17 cm), because the whole
  arm rides the gun for that frame.
• The placement was measured on my test PC, not yet in a headset. If a gun or the glove still sits off your
  hand, please tell me which one and roughly how far. The Sentinel Hammer and the Berserk fists haven't been
  measured yet (I couldn't get either into the Slayer's hands on the test PC); the chainsaw and the melee are
  quick moves the game animates itself.
• Foveated rendering on AMD and Intel cards (new in 0.1.56) is barely tested. One player reports it working
  well on an RX 6750 XT; Intel cards haven't been confirmed yet. If it looks wrong or crashes, turn it off and
  tell me.
• The HUD's smallest text is hard to read: the mission challenge names and the Demonic Corruption bar's
  title. A larger HUD size on the Play tab makes them bigger.
• A few screens still show keyboard keys: tips whose text names a key ("pressing [M]"), the custom weapon
  wheel's reset to default (R), and on Vive wands the Arsenal's customize weapon and equip mod (F, X), which have
  no button there.
• Sights are lined up on five guns so far; the rest can point a little off. Go by the Aim dot.
• The Precision Bolt's scope sits about 3 degrees off your aim, because the Heavy Cannon is lined up for its
  iron sights.
• With head aim there's no crosshair or aim mark while the Precision Bolt is zoomed in. Shots go to the middle
  of your view. On the Game Pass version head aim may still show the scope's ring.
• Parallel Eye Rendering is still highly experimental and off by default. The full list is under "Parallel Eye
  Rendering" in KNOWN-ISSUES.
