    • manually
      • go to steam install/config directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\config by default)
      • edit the appconfig.json to remove the path pointed to Advanced Settings ("C:\\Program Files\\OpenVR-AdvancedSettings\\manifest.vrmanifest" by default)
      • delete install/setting/log file manually

New Features

  • Rotation Tab feilen UI by ykeara

    • Auto-Turn - Automatically rotates you to allow you to walk in a single direction forever in games by rotating the world around you as you near walls.
      • optionally this feature will also try to direct you so that you will untangle your cord as well.
      • important - This feature does not handle playspaces with wall corners greater than 180 degrees well.
    • redirected - walking - Automatically steers you away from the edge of your play area by encouraging you to walk towards the middle of your play area.
      • Important - This requires a VERY large playspace to be imperceptible, its best use is for extending your perceived length of your play area slightly.
  • Friction - when using Space Drag features. A value of 100% will bring the user to a full stop within roughly 1 second. The max value is 999% and min is 0%. Most useful values should be found within the range of 20%~80%. - kung
