PiTool 1.0.1.132 (stable) released

DrWilken · May 31, 2019, 2:35pm

Official Version Features

What’s New:
Add Japanese language support.

Issue Fixed ：

Fix the occasional ghosting problem caused by the high GPU occupancy

EDIT: Seems it should have been 1.0.1.132. The last beta was also 1.0.1.129 even though the download page says 1.0.0.129.

EDIT: As You can see on the screenshot above after install You might have different brightness values for each eye. Press default and/or set the values again after pressing the chain icon.
EDIT2: This seems to happen on every restart.

Direct link: http://piplay-us.pimaxvr.com/PiToolSetup_1.0.1.132_212.exe

There’s no new firmware update with this version (i.e. it’s the same as in beta 1.0.1.129 = v2.1.255.212 as the filename suggests).

Bugs:

Brightness slider uneven between left/right after update (on every start of PiTool)
Chinese language (text) in language selector seems broken (see screenshot)

Wow, excellent news! Can’t wait to test it.

This is lovely news!

It will most likely fix the flicker when doing the GPU “default” button trick and getting better performance Great job!

Fantastic, excellent news!

I dont get the Version-Numbers Pimax is using. I have V1.0.1.109 this one reads 1.0.0.132 should it supposed to have a higher Version-Numer then my current Version??

Which one is better, can someone explain?

DrWilken · May 31, 2019, 5:07pm

They most likely forgot the 1…

EDIT: I actually think it’s the other way round. .109 should have been 1.0.0.109?

EDIT2: Nope. It’s the new versions that are missing the 1…

DrWilken · May 31, 2019, 5:15pm

.132 is the latest stable release, .129 is the latest beta.

Mpmo10 · May 31, 2019, 5:18pm

Hope it fixed controllers not connecting and showing the annoying “not enough dongles” issue…

Das_pelzige_Gnu · May 31, 2019, 5:19pm

So does .132 include the changes of 129?

DrWilken · May 31, 2019, 5:22pm

I would really think so, but someone with an RTX card (who can test FFR) need to verify it as mine is sent in for repair (I’m on a 1080Ti and the FFR options won’t show up if the card doesn’t support it).

EDIT: Seems to me like the rest is there:

BTW - Even the filename says 1.0.1.132:

So I just installed the update. Now the left eye of my pimax is darker than the right eye…

Anyone knows how to fix this? The Brightness level on left eye is -5 but when i move it to 0 it jumps back to -5???

DrWilken · May 31, 2019, 5:36pm

Press the little icon which is between left and right to align them?

Das_pelzige_Gnu · May 31, 2019, 5:36pm

Okay a press on “default” did the trick

DrWilken · May 31, 2019, 5:37pm

Just noticed it’s the same on my screenshot…

Didn’t try it yet as the kid isn’t asleep yet.

DrWilken · May 31, 2019, 5:48pm

Just did a few reboots and it seems to me that they’ve improved the PiService.

I don’t have to restart PiServiceLauncher to get my Pimax tracked/recognized…

FYI - The PiServiceLauncher service is set to auto-start, but I start PiTool manually.

neal_white_iii · May 31, 2019, 5:53pm

Hmm, PiTool “Check Version” still thinks it’s the latest version. Why is the button even there, if it doesn’t know there’s been an update?

DrWilken · May 31, 2019, 5:54pm

I noticed the same thing…! I don’t think it has ever worked.

I wonder which URL it actually “polls”… Probably a broken link…

neal_white_iii · May 31, 2019, 5:58pm

@Sean.Huang, There’s a text issue. The default was the 1/4 string. It worked fine, once I changed it to English.

DrWilken · May 31, 2019, 6:02pm

Got that too. Guess they built it with a broken Japanese as default language.

DrWilken · May 31, 2019, 6:07pm

Added bugs to the OP.
