After dedicating countless hours and sleepless nights over a period of two weeks, Armin @arminelec and I feel confident to release the new Pimax VR Experience Beta 0.60.0.0 We believe we have solved a large amount of critical and important issues as well as minor bugs, while introducing significant improvements and a bunch of new features. We look forward to hear about your experience!
We value every piece of feedback we receive. We may not respond individually to everyone, but we will use your comments as we strive to improve your experience.
Note:The new beta comes with its own installer, but requires you to have PiTool version 1.0.2.084 installed. Make sure to tick the checkbox âStart Pimax VR Homeâ in PiTool, Settings â General . This will enable automatic launch of Pimax VR Experience.
0.60.0.0 Beta - Release Notes
New: The app comes with its own installer apart from the PiTool
New: User can now choose the install location of the app independent of PiTool install location
New: Installer setup file size is heavily compressed for quicker download
New: Profile based command line arguments management per game
thx guys (@SweViver & @arminelec) ! outstanding work and cudos for time and energy you put into this project! looking forward trying it out this weekend. I hope you get some well deserved sleep now!
Basically thatâs correct. If they can just make Pitool incorporate PE features, it would be perfect for my purposes (aside from whatâs been done already).
I just installed the Beta 0.60.0.0 as well, first try for PE, and it works just fine, flawless and without any crashed so far.
Really very very good work, @SweViver and @arminelec
Just having one concern - I donât know whether it comes from the PE or the PiTool 1.0.2.084:
But have they adjusted the base value on which colour related contrast works�
With the former 1.0.1.263, I had the following settings:
General
contrast: +1
brightness: -1
Red contrast: +2 - so +1 compared to the general.
Thatâs how I learned it from some threads in this forum to achieve a less cold / warmer image, worked well with the old 5K+ and the new 8K-X. Until nowâŚ
=> When using these settings now with 1.0.2.084:
+1 / red +2 and brightness -1, the image turns out quite to reddish. I have to reduce âredâ to +1 in order to look almost the same as before - even though I think it is still just a little bit too reddish, but that might be some kind of hypersensitivity now.
Wouldnât know any other place to ask right now, since PiTool 1.0.2.084 still isnât released officially but related to PE beta in some wayâŚ
I love it and it workes great. Just a quick question in the upper left it tells me that my hmd is not connected to PiTools. did some settings reset and looked around then loaded up a few stream VR games then exited everything worked liked before but it still said I was not counted to PiTools.
Do I need to be? should I be (why or why not). I have the 8K+
Has anyone found like me, I use 8k+ and the display always fade to dark look like the tracking is lost and when it show again, it automatically run steamvr home.
But once done, everything is working great so far and it wasnât for me before
Performance seems good
Profiles are loading correctly and I can edit settings
Turned off the controller to check mouse use - alt-tabbed out to recapture my mouse for general use without problems, and then re-tabbed back and was able to control PE with mouse. Perfect!
Iâll try the new version asap.
Btw good job, PE is bringing pitool into the right direction.
Something like that was overdue and I like that youâve come that far for now,
keep up tha good work!
