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

ApollyonVR
Rising Star
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 ApollyonVR@gmail.com

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 ApollyonVR@gmail.com 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!

Just installed 81.2. I have unistalled 81.1 first. Getting an error on OTT startup,  Could not open the oculus database. Cannot set command text while a datareader is active. I am running as administrator and nothing has been changed or added since 81.1. Any ideas?

Same here. I get that on startup and if I go into View/Add Profiles and click "Close".

Glad I`m not alone. What`s with the Datareader is active bit? Hope ApollyonVr sees our posts.

I have no idea at this point why the datareader is not closing as it should, there have been no changes to that part of the code between 0.81.1 and 0.81.2. For me everything is working as it should. It's possible the reader encounters a problem and never closes properly. If you could enable debug mode, replicate the issue and send me the ott.log it would help. I can also look into changing that routine to use another method and see if that works better.

Cheers!

Here is a log for you.

Important lines to find:
At application start:
2017-10-11 17:03:51 GetFiles: Cannot set CommandText while a DataReader is active

After clicking on View/Add Profiles and then clicking "Close"
2017-10-11 17:04:37 GetFiles: Cannot set CommandText while a DataReader is active

http://grandis.nu/downloads/ott.zip

I accidentally started it again at
2017-10-11 17:05:28 Starting up...
So everything after that is a new launch without debug.

The only change I've made since the last version and this is installing Steam. I did not have that on the previous version, if you think that matters.

0.81.2 is up for grabs on the front page.
@legi0  Yes it should, but some games might not work properly, but i hope most do.



Great work @ApollyonVR. Fantastic continued support of your tool. I have it running even if I'm playing a AAA with its own SS settings. Love the performance and PD overlays. Keep up the good work mate. Cheers.

HI Apollo, 

As a feature request I would like the ability to see what OTT thinks the current SS value to be:

I.e.
Global setting of 1.6
Profile Setting of 1.3
When the game has started I'd like somewhere on the window to show that it thinks it should be displaying at 1.3 or 1.6. 

1.3 in OTT / 1.3 in Game (via Overlay) would mean that the profile has loaded correctly prior to game launch
1.3 in OTT / 1.6 in Game (via Overlay) would mean that the profile didn't inject prior to launch
1.6 in OTT / 1.6 in Game (via Overlay) would mean that the profile wasn't working at all
1.6 in OTT / 1.3 in Game (via Overlay) would mean I've been drinking too much

Great update. 🙂

You can simplify it even more though.

You only need the close on x option because if you check none of the options it will minimise in the tray anyway. Having both checks is not necessary.

Please add a tick to disable the tray notification if you ever have the chance. 😄

Thx for the update!
