Rift 1.40 Release Rolling Out Now

Dash
  • We've added a new button to the Dash belt to select and view individual Virtual Desktop panels.
  • We've improved stability and performance of Virtual Desktop. Please make sure your version of Windows 10 is up to date to take advantage of these improvements.

Guardian

We’ve made performance improvements and feature updates to improve your experience while interacting with Guardian. These updates include:

  • Ability to clear your Guardian boundary history from your Guardian settings menu.
  • Opportunity to confirm your Guardian boundaries are accurate when you first put on your headset.
  • Removed the need to indicate what direction is forward when setting up Guardian.

Store
  • Updated the design and improved performance and load times for the Oculus Store.

Home
  • You can now collect all of your Oculus Home rewards at once with the new Collect All button. (Note: this feature is rolling out slowly to everyone within 1.40. Thanks for your patience!)

Fixes
  • Fixed an issue where Touch controllers could lose tracking during fast movements with Rift.
  • Removed warning that USB drivers needed to be updated when drivers were already up to date.

As always, if you encounter any issues with this software release, please be sure to report them using the Help Center > Provide Feedback option within the Oculus desktop software. If you have any feature requests or suggestions to make the Oculus software even better, please head over to our UserVoice page to share your feedback. Thanks for your continued help!

    You don't get one. This update will be pushed out to all headsets progressively. (With a nested level of progressively for the "Collect All" feature)

    This wasn't in the Release Notes for the PTC 1.40
    Does that mean this is a different version to the one which was in the PTC?

    It certainly could be.
    However hard to say, they may have just left the above out in the PTC release notes.

    I was excited for this feature, but at the moment is still buggy. It causes a crash that turns off the oculus service altogether , exiting any apps that you may have open . I do have the latest windows 10 and updated my graphics drivers to latest. 
    My setup: Intel i7 4790k , RTX2070 8G RAM Nvidia driver: 436.02

    Thanks!!

     Just noticed my USB status lights are all green again.

    Does this mean a possible end to the issue (of multiple threads about USB update warnings I mean?)  ;)

    Even better - I can now use my Asmedia USB 3.1G2 ports!  As they provide much more power (Thanks Asus) than the G1 ports I'm hoping to see the end of swapping USB ports when the Rift S decides it isn't happy anymore :)
