NOTE: If you grabbed alpha4, it was missing the psmove controller model files. alpha4.1 has the missing files

New stuff this release:

  • Updating the test_camera app to support multiple cameras (up to 3).
    • The test_camera.exe app is now included in the release
    • This can be used to quick test if your cameras are streaming data consistently
  • Disabling the OpenCV camera open fallback
    • If neither the libusb or CLEye methods of opening the camera worked, we asked OpenCV to try and open the camera. While we want to support other web cam camera types in the future, there is presently no way to calibrate the focal lengths of other cameras. This also makes it confusing to debug libusb/cleye camera connection issues. Turning this off for now.
  • Added button remapping to the steamvr plugin
  • Updating SteamVR plugin to use psmove and pseye models (Thanks InfinateXtremer!)
  • Controller rumble is back baby!
    • New client -> service UDP channel that doesn't murder the request channel

Known Issues:

  • libusb based camera drivers are still super unreliable.
  • Removing support for OpenCV webcams means that no cameras are supported in Linux

Features coming (hopefully) next release:
