Changelog for 27-11-2023

27-11-2023

Added:

• Plugins API. (Custom wristwatch modules created with .NET/C#, see our wiki here!)

Changes:

• Temporarily removed webcam capture options in Set Contents to fix a crash related to Wacom graphics tablet drivers.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed CPU usage display on Windows 11. :)
• Custom Apps will no longer endlessly ask for permissions.
• Fixed an issue where curved overlay input was affected by the overlay settings panel being invisible after toggling edit mode off with the panel visible.
• Fixed wristwatch sidebar sometimes being visible on application start.

For the fellow nerds out there:
Here's a quick demo plugin I built to test the Plugins API.

This plugin is written in C# (.NET Framework 4.7.2), it adds some simple controls that interact wtih the Sensibo web API to control my office air conditioning from within VR.

Maybe some of you can implement something for your own home automation setups?

At this time... These plugins will not be on the Workshop due to security risks. Any plugins you install from Github are at your own risk! Stay safe and only run plugins from known sources. :)

Watch on YouTube

The plugin API is super basic right now, with very limited customization beyond adding buttons and text, but it's a start. Let me know in our Discord what you'd like to see added to this!

As usual, please report issues in our Discord server! <3
