Question

Oculus TrayTool - SuperSampling profiles, HMD disconnect fixes (hopefully)

Oculus Tray Tool  
current version: 0.87.3

What is it?
In short; It’s a free application that helps you get the most out of your Rift. It is developed by me, ApollyonVR, with the support of the community for beta testing. Please note that this application is not an official piece software from Oculus, I am not affiliated with Oculus in any way. Any issues you
have with this application should be reported to me and not Oculus support. You can reach me here on the forums or by contacting me at *REDACTED*

Oculus Tray Tool (OTT) has many features that will hopefully help you get the very best VR experience. It has options that help you automatically switch audio and microphone to the Rift and back, handle the Oculus runtime service, voice commands, batch import Steam games (added to OTT by the awesome headkaze over at http://headsoft.com.au), replace icons for your games and more.

It’s primary feature however, is the ability to create “Profiles” for you VR Games and apps.
Within these Profiles, you set how Asyncronous SpaceWarp (ASW) should act, increase the perceived resolution by using Supersampling and increase the CPU Priority of a given app to get the most juice out of your system for that specific application.
Once a Profile has been created for a game or app, OTT will detect when it is started and apply the
profile for it, without the need for taking your headset of.

If you want to have a peek at all the things OTT can do for you before installing the application, check the User Guide pdf. The latest version of this application will always be right below this intro, but the app also checks for available updates on startup.

Enjoy, have fun and please report any issues, suggestion or feature requests to me using the above mentioned methods. Oh, and feel free to buy me a coffee by using the PayPal button in-app. 🙂
 
The very nice people over at Guru3d.com have been kind enough to host some mirrors for the setups, so make sure to pay them a visit!

UPDATE 03/08

Hi all!
It's been a while since i released a new version, but now the time has come! 😃
I'm looking for ppl who want to test the new version before public release.
There are primarily changes for the Quest but anyone is welcome to test it.
Just drop an email to *REDACTED* and i'll get you a download link
and some instructions. Also include what type of headset (Rift or Quest)
that you are using.

 

Also, i now have a proper domain for the website, so swing by www.ApollyonVR.com
and check out the new Forum! If you have questions, comments or suggestions

that is the place to post them. 😃

 

Below are the release notes for the new version. Please note that this is a Beta version

for testing the new features. If you just want to use a stable version of OTT then head

over to www.apollyonvr.com and simply download the latest version.

 

Version 0.87.7
* Oculus Dash will now use the same CPU Priority as what you set for OVR Server.
* Added a "Comments" option to Profiles.
* Implemented Paolod29's code for a permanent AirLink (https://github.com/pd29/oculus-airlink-enabler).
* Added more choices to the Quest Link settings for "Bitrate" and "Encode Resolution".
* Added option for "Force Mipmap generation on all layers" on the Game Settings tab.
* Added option for "Offset Mipmap bias on all layers" on the Game Settings tab.
* Added option for "Force Mipmap generation on all layers" to Profiles.
* Added option for "Offset Mipmap bias on all layers" to Profiles.
* Added option for "Encode Dynamic Bitrate" on the Quest Link tab.
* Added option for "Dynamic Bitrate Max" on the Quest Link tab.
* Added "FOV Multiplier" to Profiles. Setting this to a value lower than 1, for example 0.8,
will increase FPS due to less pixels being drawn at the expense of lower FOV.
* When creating a brand new Profile, the current settings from the Game Settings tab will be used.
This will make it even easier to create a new Profile! Simply experiment with different settings
on the Game Settings tab, and when you have found the perfect combo for a given game those
settings are copied over when you click "Create new Profile".

* Added option to Disable profiles.

* Redesigned the Profiles window a bit.
* Fixed some bugs.

 
Cheers!

Hi, Sorry to say it doesn't seem to work on my system. Tried to set "Ultimate Perfomance" but OVRService revert it to "high performance" still.

@MA_Goblin Yea, wierd, i just noticed myself that it does this for me too, but only on the first change. If i change powerplan again then it doesn't switch anymore. So it appears to only happen the first time you trigger the sensor/put on the hmd. I'll see if i can add some form of "force" option that detects changes in the power plans and resets it to whatever is set in OTT.

Cheers!

In my case it keeps switching between high and ultimate continuously every time i put on the headset, when I put down the headset it reverts to ultimate profile after a few seconds and the when I put it back on it reverts to high. Really annoying.

Hey ApollyonVR.

Fantastic little piece of software.

I'm the founder of Blur Busters / TestUFO and have a donation I want to send, as well as an email to send.

Does your email address contains two L's or three L's?   Your original post has three L's.

that now (thanks for pointing that out!) and also replied to your email.

Cheers!

@MA_Goblin unless you use a laptop on battery power I don't understand why you would not just leave it on High Performance all the time?  That way you do not actually need to select anything in OTT power settings.  You may need to modify your win10 high performance setting to suit you but this is very easy to do and once you do this once, it's done.

@TomCgcmfc Well, the "ultimate performance" option now introduced, or the "Bitsum High performance" has a number of tweaks added to the profile that I want to use. Thus it's annoying when this is switched off by Oculus all the time just because it doesn't recognise the profile name. It is a bug in Oculus software in my opinion and need to be fixed by oculus. I could of course rename the new profile to High performance but I don't want to loose the standard profiles in case I will need them in the future how ever unlikely.

Sorry but that does not seem like too much of a big deal to me.  If you expect our OTT developer to cater for every demand we are not going to get too far imho.  Esp. when each and every Oculus and Windows update can effect OTT.

I have come to the conclusion that OTT is what it is, and I'm making the best out of it that I can.  Which is a lot imho.  Just donate a cup of coffee and be happy.

@TomCgcmfc  I don't demand the developer to do anything. I simply asked if it was possible to lock out the change in profile. I definitely don't want to send the developer in a goose chase for things not necessary.

Ya well that's not the way it came across to me. I think that the emphasis should be on the many, not a few imho.  Most just need a good way to add a bit of SS for diff games, help fix audio switching. and select ASW setting for different game/app profiles  

You post and request whatever you think's best.  Open forum and all that, of course.
