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 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!

@MeTeC  Sounds really wierd, i'll drop you a PM with some questions and we can take it from there.

this may have been asked before and sorry if it has.  I'm wondering if there's a way to use the voice commands to tie into obs when streaming.  In short i'm thinking like the xbox where you would say "xbox record that"  but instead maybe a way to say something that would put a Mark in the stream so you can easily find it later to clip.

@Avengest Currently all voice commands are tied to specific actions like handling ASW or showing an info panel in the headset. I will however be adding custom voice commands, so you can add commands that handle all sorts of stuff like running scripts, pressing buttons, starting external apps and such. No ETA on that though as it’s a pretty big change. But it’s pretty close to the top on the to-do list. 

Cheers!

@ApollyonVR it's possible integrate a sort of cable guardian on oculus tray tool? it's pretty useful for the rift s cable

@markhollis That might be possible, i'll put it on the to-do list and see when i get the change to look at it. Thanks for the suggestion!

@lenne0815 That one is a bit out of my hands i'm afraid. While i don't have the Rift S (yet) it sounds really strange that there is no way of setting height or simillar. Reading though the setup process, there is supposed to be a way of setting the floor level during the setup. In Oculus 1.38 it is supposed to be done by touching the floor with one of the contollers (and pressing a button i would guess), and in Oculus 1.39 (currenly in testing) the process for finding the floor is apparently automatic, but there should also be a way of doing it manually. So i would recommend you run through the setup process again and see if there is some way of manually telling the software where floorlevel is.

Cheers!


Problem is - theres no way to get the controller lower than my floor, i already thought about putting it on a rope and rope it out of my window, but i would have to wait until the time of day is perfect for that 😄

It utterly weird indeed, i consider that feature as very basic, but its just not there 😞

Hi @ApollyonVR, currently on 0.86.2 .  I wanted to check the option under Service&Startup to 'Send Oculus Home to tray when it starts' and as soon as I click on the box it doesn't get ticked, then the app always hangs and reports 'not responding'.  I also noticed that the right & left arrow on my keyboard would no longer work.... at times then I'd get Unhandled exception error.

Observing it for days but still happens, which means it's gone through several reboots already.

Update: I was able to tick that option, after I first unticked 'Send OH to tray when it's minimized', then ticked it again. At least you're aware.

@sherpa25 Get me the ott.log and i'll take a look, just PM me here or email it to me. Also, if you have hotkeys enabled then the arrow keys are the default for switching ASW mode and showing the info panels in the headset. So if that is enabled then OTT will catch the arrow keys for itself when it's running. So click configure and see what you have there, i did a change to the hotkeys that might require you to re-configure them. The Log tab should show some info on that.

Cheers!

@ApollyonVR, ok, no issue about the keyboard.  Forgot about the mapping and just thought it had to do with the issue I was having about ticking the last option under Service. 
I'm trying it again now and ticking/unticking now seems to work fine.  Not sure if you'd still like/need to see my ott.log, but I'll PM it \so you may see what may have caused it before.
