Amethyst v1.0.2.12 Technical Preview

Short Commit ID: d8bbd6 (Amethyst)

In case you wanted to know what's changed since 0.9...
Better ask what's NOT been changed. But that'd be stupid
Anyway, there's a simple somewhat-of-a-changelog, here

Setup instructions are also available on discord
For help with, please hit 公彦赤屋先#5023 or #development

Pre-requisites (You need these to run the app):

Actually doing the thing:

  • Download Amethyst-Release-XXXXXX.zip
  • Create a new folder, e.g. C:\Amethyst
  • Extract the ZIP into that new folder.
    In the case of the example folder, you would end up with C:\Amethyst\Amethyst.exe
  • Once Amethyst is launched, Click re-register SteamVR driver and follow the prompts.
  • ezgif com-gif-maker(7)

It's unsupported but please help me anyway!!!

My SteamVR gives me Error 203 and won't start no matter what I do.

You have the Amethyst and K2EX drivers enabled at the same time.
They use the same logging library and conflict with each other on startup, causing the entirety of the SteamVR backend to crash.
Close SteamVR, then either delete or edit %localappdata%\openvr\openvrpaths.vrpath
if your file says null in it after you edited it, go learn JSON, and WTF are you doing on GitHub????

I have some other unrelated issue.

Unless you're actually braindead, you may possibly have run into a bug,
reporting those is important to building a stable application for release.
See just below on how to report bugs.

Time for your move:

We're currently localizing (translating) Amethyst, crash handler and devices.
If you know (or someone, you know, knows?) more languages than English
(preferably intermediate), please consider committing to the project.
You can find the instructions, FAQ, and files here

Important:

Described upper, Amethyst is now being slowly localized.
If pages are loading way slower than they should, please:

  1. Ignore that, it may be fixed soon enough
  2. Consider buying a faster/better drive

You can register VR manifests and enable AutoStart with SteamVR inside Amethyst.
