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!

Under Quest Link, when choosing a preset and changing values, you can change them but you can't save them. 
Only for a new preset that you add.
So the 2 selection boxes should be disabled when using a non-custom preset.

Also, can you add a button that fixes your height while in-game? just like fpsVR does it

@morganavr Not tested, but i see no reason it shouldn't work.
@UN-SectionOne Well, the presets are read-only so to speak. You can change the values so that you can test what works best, then use those values in a custom preset. Could perhaps be implemented better. Not sure that what fpsVR does for Steam is possible for Oculus stuff, but will take a look when i get the chance.

Cheersd!

My OTT profiles don't work and I can't launch games from OTT.
OTT does work in that I can get the performance HUD to appear.

With the 'Audio confirmation when profile is applied' selected, the profiles never activate when launching games via Oculus. I then try to launch games straight from OTT. The audio cue did play but the game failed to launch and gave the below error (attached).

In addition, I posted in the support forum asking if my Oculus install directory might relate to the issue: https://forums.oculusvr.com/community/discussion/90376/oculus-install-directory-duplicate-manifests-folder-and-files

@shitForBreakfast The manifest files are a bit spread out so that's nothing to worry about there. But i'd like to see some logs from OTT. So if you could 

Start up OTT, let it sit for a few seconds to finish loading
Go to the Advanced tab and click "Restart in debug mode".
After it has started up, again let it sit for just a few seconds
Launch any game or app that you have a profile for, let that start up, then exit it.
Grab be the below files from the OTT installation directory and send those to me in a PM or in an email.

ott.log
ott.db

@TheTonaZ Yea, dropbox has changed things up a bit, but i've fixed the download links now, so the in-app updater should work again.

Ya, the update button on OTT now seems to work fine, thanks.  Actually says I'm now on version 86.5.2.  Is this the latest?  I have not seen any notes on this.  Edit;  OK I see on your page #1 that this is just an error and the version is actually 86.5.1.  No problem!

Also, the only minor bug I've noticed since the last couple of updates is that most of my game profiles do not take their settings when I start them up the first time (including no voice message).  If I exit them and restart the game I get the voice message and the profile settings are then correct.  Not sure if there is a simple fix for this like adjusting delay values?  Not a big deal for me since most of my games are close to my global and/or have their own in-game settings.

Another very minor complaint is that although I set my Global setting to disable GPU scaling, all my Profiles seem to have defaulted to GPU scaling = on.  I had to edit all these to disable this.  Again, no big deal but it would be nice if the default on all profiles was GPU = off.
