Latest Steam announcements

• Version 1.3.5.2 / Pro 2.4.1.2 - 30 May 2023

  Patch notes New feature: Resume alarm timer after app restart (with pause option) An active alarm is now automatically saved when the app closes and will be resumed at startup. By default, the timer continues to "run" when the app is closed. (Note, nothing is actually running in the background - the elapsed time is calculated at startup.) With the new menu option, the timer can be paused when the app closes, and at startup it will continue where it left off. Fix a bug in Repeat Alarm -feature

• Version 1.3.5.1 / Pro 2.4.1.1 - 21 May 2023

  Patch notes New feature: Repeat alarm Alarm will be endlessly repeated until cancelled (or until the app is closed). For example: If you set the alarm to go off in 10 minutes, it will go off every 10 minutes.

• Version 1.3.4.3 / Pro 2.4.0.4 - 8 November 2022

  Patch notes Increase wave file max play length from 5 seconds to 5 hours

• PRO Version 2.4.0.3 - 5 November 2022

  Patch notes Allow OpenVR connection without a valid chaperone. In some cases the SteamVR chaperone data may not be available. This resulted in an infinite waiting loop during initialization. Now the initialization continues regardless, and just the "Chaperone alert" -feature is disabled if data is missing.

• Version 1.3.4.2 - 18 September 2022

  Patch notes Fix: Forward orientation did not match SteamVR room setup

• Version 1.3.4.1 / Pro 2.4.0.2 - 23 June 2022

  Pro: Chaperone Alert (SteamVR only) Requested feature intended mainly for VR Arcades (or for demoing VR to inexperienced users) Warns the user when the headset collides with the chaperone (and asks them to return to center) Can be customized just like any other Cable Guardian alert Adjustable collision distance (buffer) Pro 2.4.0.2 additional patch notes The height threshold for the pop-up status display is now adjustable (in advanced mode) Common patch notes (1.3.4.1 / Pro 2.4.0.2) "Full Mode" is now "Advanced Mode" and is indicated next to the logo. Switch modes by clicking the indicator. Launch options are now hidden to save space. Access them by clicking the "show launch options" -banner. New option: "Close automatically with SteamVR" New option: "Notify when starting minimized" Auto-start and user-start now have a common "Start minimized" -option. They are no longer separate option…

• Version 1.3.3.2 / Pro 2.3.0.7 - 10 February 2021

  1.3.3.2 patch notes Show red info text when the headset is not being tracked (but connection is ok) Help form update with link to Steam Discussions Fix refreshing initial turn count in UI Pro 2.3.0.7 patch notes Advanced experimental feature: Use a custom origin instead of SteamVR center. This should make Cable Guardian compatible with playspace mover as the coordinates are directly tied to the tracking system and will not move. Only enable this if you need it. Many changes were required under the hood, so please report if you find any bugs. Tested with lighthouse tracking and Rift CV1 tracking. Overlay timeout: compare operator can now be changed for checking turn count. Pop-up status overlay height threshold lowered to 1.0m Fix bug with navigation tabs when there are no rotation alerts defined Show red info text when the headset is not being tracked (but connection is ok) Help form up…
