SteamVR Settings Beta

The new SteamVR settings are still a work in progress.

SteamVR

• Improved audio mirroring latency and fixed some cases where the mirror could accumulate a large delay.
• Skip “Advanced Supersampling Filtering” for systems which use their own compositor (e.g. WMR, Oculus). This should fix blurriness reported by WMR users.

SteamVR Dashboard

• Improved multi-monitor desktop support (Windows 10 only)
• Improved cursor rendering (Windows 10 only)

SteamVR Input

• For games using legacy input: When fetching default bindings, prefer partner site explicit defaults instead of generic legacy defaults
• When switching bindings, SteamVR now records the previously selected binding in a setting.
• Action Sets with a higher priority will now correctly override sets with a lower priority.
• Recent games list in top level controller configuration menu now shows most recent game instead of starting with second most recent game.

Index HMD Firmware

• Framerate can be changed without restarting (NVIDIA driver version >441 required)
