I do apologize for that! But perhaps true :) I'll be frank that a lot of the times I end up getting things delivered off schedule due to various other responsibilities of varying priorities that come and go. Either way I'm aiming on improving this slowly as I've got a bit more time on my hands to actually work on BoofVR for the time being. I can understand the frustration, believe me, it frustrates me too because I try to squeeze time when I want to do so much. I'll see about how I can manage this better - so it's a bit more of a positive experience rather than a negative one, especially for this kind of fun project :)

You should really stop giving time lines for when something is gonna be released, it never seems to work out :/ Not trying to be negative, just some advice, that way you dont' give false hope :(

My hands in VR were invisible when starting a new world [I used valve index]

Hey everyone! I'm currently making another build to fix the VR mode issue for hands not appearing correctly, please hold - I'll put up a notification once this hotfix is up and ready for download :) thank you for the bug reports altogether, they help a lot!

There was a bug I encounterd when I put it into VR MODE , I launched the game and everything was normal. But when I loaded into a world I had "Yellow skeleton" hands and the hands model was stuck and glitched into the floor. I am not sure why. You can also see the hands to your right when in the "Lobby" (main menu) spinning around in the floor.

Absolutely no problem, more data is better than no data in making a game the best it can be

This is most likely a bug from upgrading the engine version - will have a look and see what's going on, those maps will be removed soon and replaced with a better style we're aiming for as well! But thank you for letting us know, the more bug listing the better :)

In addition to the hand tracking issues seen by others, neither the beach nor the garage are loading properly. The model geometry and textures are mostly present but the lighting is weird and overexposed. I'm using an Nvidia GTX 1060, hope that it's not an awful and complicated bug.

Sucks to see some people experiencing issues, but hey it's to be expected with something of this complexity and scale. Good luck devs!

Can't wait to test this out!

I managed to get the game running in VR with my Oculus Rift S, but the tracking on the hands don't seem to work. My hands are just the skeletons of two left hands and the actual models for the paws are on the ground, not tracking my hands.

Think we've just fixed this issue, and it should be updated once the hotfix build is ready and uploaded tonight :) thank you for letting us know!

Werethrope

Okay, I think we've just fixed this issue - the new build should be up in a few hours, please hold until then, thank you for letting us know! :)

Werethrope

I'll be reuploading a hotfix later tonight and this post should notify you once it goes through :) but thank you for letting me know! Hopefully the new one will work!

I've got this too and I can usually spot my hands violently flying around on the main menu

Refuses to work in VR with quest 2 even when using -vr. Also it still says 0.3 at the launch screen.

I don't really know how to describe this. I'm playing on an index, and the game starts fine. However, when I get into one of the scenarios my hands vanish, and I can't interact with anything. My hands reappear when I enter menus, but then go away again when I close them. Other than that, the desktop mode works very well!

Hey! Happy to see a new update for Boof!!! When I try to download and extract the zip file it gives me an unknown error, not sure what's going on there.

Werethrope

I'm heading off for the night now to rest up, but please do comment here if there's any issues with the download or anything, and I'll get back with a response tomorrow and look into them :)
