v25 PTC PC Software Release Notes

Oculus Link

  • You can now set your refresh rate to 80hz and 90hz when using Link with a USB-2 cable.
    • Keep in mind, that even with some of the newest and most powerful GPUs, maxing out values for the render resolution slider with a 90 Hz refresh rate may result in dropped or missing frames.
  • Fixed an issue causing Link to show a black screen after exit.
  • Reduced incidence of “Oculus Link is not working” errors that were happening on shut down. 

(Quick note version numbering: v25 will be the next live release for everyone, as v24 will stay as an internal stability build only)

    But Oculus automatically updates to the latest version, what's the point of keeping old ones? If something "worked perfectly", why did you update if you can have any version you want?

    I disabled automatically updates.
    just create txt-files without extension(.txt) in Oculus folder
    tmp
    Staging
    and Oculus Home 
    will no longer be able to automatically update its software :)))
    but update games and progs still works

    This is how they always do it. Sometimes no patch notes ever turn up. Feedback is a one way street.

    On v25 i started seeing an issue on Quest 2 Link playing dirt rally 2.0 (steam) where the bottom half of my screen would have like a white-distorted overlay on it shortly after entering VR mode for a race.  Exiting quest link resolves the issue in the headset... appears to be a quest link related issue.

    Reverted back to v23 and couldn't reproduce the issue.

    Specs:
    Win10 latest
    RTX 3090 - latest drivers
    i9 10900k
