  • Added Profile Save/Load Support:
    • Current system saves:
      • Position
      • Rotation
      • Device attached to
      • Base Position attached to (if applicable)
      • Scale/Alpha Settings
      • Animation Mode
    • Select "New.." and press Save, Fill out the title and press the new "Save" button to confirm.
    • Select a Profile and click Save to overwrite it.
    • Press Delete two times to delete the selected profile. Pressing once turns the text red to indicate "press again to confirm", basically. Click Load/Save or select a different profile to cancel and reset it.
    • Last loaded profile will attempt to auto-load on program start
  • UI Cleanup:
    • Added closeable panels for Save/Load and Position/Rotation.
    • Adjusted the positioning of Window Cropping settings.
    • Moved the Minimize toggle to the far left under Direct Capture.
    • Added a panel for Animation/Alpha/Scale settings, but doesn't currently have a close button.

If you are having trouble capturing a certain window, make sure it is on screen, try clicking the refresh button and selecting it again, try toggling Direct Capture on/off, try toggling minimized on/off. I haven't run into any applications that completely refuse to be captured except ones that are actually running in the background.

Known bugs:

  • Rotating along the X axis is buggy.
  • Loading and Saving while the Position/Rotation panel is closed might have unintended results, as the Open/Close system might cause bugs. Please report any bugs you find if the have not already been reported.
  • If you have issues with the new save system try deleting the file located at:

C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\LocalLow\HeadlessOverlayToolkit\OpenVRDesktopDisplayPortal\savedSettings.gd

Remember that:

  • Some applications cannot be captured in Direct Mode, the toggle on the top left controls if this is used or not.
  • Most applications cannot be captured while they are minimized. Some do not like being captured while they are partially or completely off screen.
  • You can control the Framerate on the top left, so configure this to your liking.
  • Smaller windows capture much faster, and typically look the same in VR, but the size is up to you.
  • You can run the exe multiple times to put multiple windows into VR, if your GPU can handle it ;]
