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!

@VoDaCZ I have fixed that issue in the upcoming release. It's not quite ready yet though, just finishing up a few thing so i should hopefully have it out this week.

@Globespy Will do some testing on this when i get the chance.

Heads up! 0.82 is almost ready with the below fixes/additions. Looking for a few brave souls to help me beta test it before release, specifically the option to re-enable third-party apps that have been removed from Home. Just holler at me and i'll get you the update.

- Fixed an issue that could leave the database reader open.
- Further simplified close/minimize behavior by just having a single opion for "Minimize tool on X"
- Added option to suppress the "I'm still running" toast. To do this simply click the message to
  have it not appear anymore when "Minimize on X" is selected.
- Added option to re-enable third-party apps that have been removed from Oculus Home.

Sorry if this has been asked before.
If I want to set SS at 1.0, I would choose the '0' setting in the game profile, however when I do this the global settings override this?
Only solution is to change to 1.1 or close OTT. I know that 1.0 is not doing any SS but need it for a specific game that.

Thanks

Try setting SS to 0 in the profile. That *should* make sure that SS is touched at all and instead uses whatever the VR app has as default, which is usually 1.0 depending a bit on the game.

@ApollyonVR, any idea why OHome doesn't close after closing OTT (w/ option to close OHome is enabled)?

@sherpa25 There have been some changes to the Oculus processes in the later versions of Home, so they way i am closing Home might need to be updated. Will take a peek at it. If it's an easy fix i'll add it to 0.82. If i need more time i will have to add to a later build.

I just found this nifty program to minimize Oculus Home to tray.  I was wondering if you could implement something like this in oculus tray tool.   
https://www.reddit.com/r/oculus/comments/6262lb/made_a_oculus_home_hide_to_system_tray_app/


The program works fine for me but it seems it would be a useful addition to your app and it has far less visibility then Ott.
