I notice now in 1.42 when you close Oculus on desktop it does not close, but minimizes to tray.
Have to right click the tray icon and choose to close it.

Home
- We added a new toggle for automatically launching Home. Switching this setting off will stop Home from auto-launching in scenarios like jumping into VR and exiting out of apps. You can find this option within the Settings > General menu inside Oculus desktop app.
Thanks for listening. (whoever it was).
I'm back in the PTC again.
Being homeless never felt so good.

It's a working victory! And it took only about 2 years (or more) to get through.Of course the OTT has had the "oculus homeless" feature a quite a while. 😄

Wow that is odd, I tried rebooting the PC and checking again, restarting the Oculus service and checking again..

Ya, same with me Ratty. When I close it, it closes. My Oculus app never actually reports to the bottom right task bar, just the bottom left main tool tray area (where I have it's shortcut pined to). To close the Oculus app I just need to either close it with its top right X, or hover my mouse over its task and select its X.
Unlike the Steam app that does not do this and always reports to the bottom right task bar where I need to right click on it and select exit for it to properly close.
The new 1.42PTC (homeless) continues to work very well for me. The only minor problem I've had is my PC mouse does not always show up on the VR desktop. If I point and shoot a touch controller to the VR desktop the mouse appears again and works fine.

dburne said:Also let me ask about the new Homeless. When I put on the headset with that feature selected, Oculus still opens in my headset with Dash displayed and a gray loading type background and just stays like that - is that correct?

Ok thanks, at least I know that part is operating correctly.

That's correct. All the functionality, without the virtual home wrapped around it. If you really want the home during your session, you can select it from the Dash Bar.

@ShowbizDonkey Could you pass a request to devs, that it would be great if the oculusmirrors FOVtan command (line parameter) would really open the FOV on desktop mirror of Rift instead of it getting the Home or game graphics and squeeze them into a more compact form? It looks a bit stupid even, when there's a barrel graphics and over it there's Dash which is working as it should without any distorting effect.
