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!

Honestly pass through is sooo crude right now I doubt it would be useful with any of my sims like x Plane 11.  You cannot even see the letters on your keyboard, lol!

Just updated to 0.86.5 and all seems to work fine.  Thanks.mate.

Why does OTT not always give an audio confirmation of SS (audio option checked) when starting up many Oculus store games?  If you exit and restart the app it then seems to do this properly. I'm always a bit concerned that the original profile is not actually in effect.  Thanks.

Works fine for many practical things. Picking up and leaving the touch controller for one, finding your teacup while simming, reach for the keyboard while simming. Generally interact with the physical world without having to pick up the Touch controller in order to pass-through

Well as long as you find it useful that’s great.

@keem85 My bad, old bug, will fix. As a workaround you can first select something from the dropdown list of games/apps.
The OK button should now be enabled. After that, hit the browse button and find what you actually want to add. The OK button should still be enabled now allowing you to add the profile. The titles of the profile (e.g. game/app) might need to be manually edited as it might still reflect what you selected previously.

Also, the additional ASW modes have been in the oculsu software for a while, there has just not been anyone asking for them. Now there was, so i added them. As always, you need to test the different modes on different games to figure out what works best for you on your specific PC hardware.



Profile bug in fresh install of Win 10 19041 - had to downgrade to previous version as the 'drop down' trick wasn't working.

Regarding the Adaptive GPU setting, was this always enabled but just invisible?
If so, why would you test per game if it's always just been on?
Is it setup for RTX cards, or just something that is per game?

What might you notice to choose 'On' or 'Off'?

@KinkyJalepeno I've sent you a PM so check that out.



I have this same problem. I am trying a reinstall but since someone else had it is there a reason for it happening? 86.5

 Adaptive GPU Scaling is on as default. OTT gives now option to diable it to pinpoint the actual max output for SS amount for any rig and any game with 90fps (unless ASW is on. If it's on, it will lower the fps to 45fps if computer can't handle the 90fps load).

I've been using the latest 86.5 version for a couple of weeks now, no problems.  I mainly just use it to set global settings, game profiles, and switching options (audio and oculus runtime on/off).  I did disable the the adaptive gpu scaling though because I did not see why I would need this since I have a pretty good gaming pc (i9 9900k, gtx1080ti, 32Gb 3000 ram).  All works great and I don't need more fluff, lol!  All good, many thanks @ApollyonVR . Cheers.

yep the fix he gave also resolved any issues I had above so all is well. I generally disable asw and adaptive scaling but sometimes I'll leave adapting scaling on depending on the game, even with an oc'd pc. certain games are chunky for bad optimization reasons.
