I'm updating stuff

Hi everyone

If you think I’ve not been working on Whirligig as this site hasn’t been updated, you’re wrong :) I’ve been working hard continuously, well mostly, the pandemic took it’s toll as it did with all of us. But I have continued my updating and working on Whirligig throughout.

Firstly this isn’t a proper post. I wanted to make it though just so the last post wasn’t so long ago. I will be making a much more detailed most in the near future. I will at least try and add a few small details of the update I’ve done since the last one. Soooo here we go :)

  • Full OpenXR support.

  • Completely rebuilt the control system so people can have their own skins like Oculus did.

  • NDI support on the PC.

  • Improved Desktop mirroring.

  • Surround sound support for videos with 5.1 sound.

  • Positional audio support for 5.1 audio with adjustable channel volumes if you want voices to be louder for instance.

  • Mobile headset support. Quest 1/2 on Applabs

  • Currently in progress but support for Pimax Portal.

  • Also in progress Pico4 VR support. Contact me in the support section if you’re interested in trying them.

  • Lots of bug fixes. I’ve also included some new bugs for those of you who like to search for them.

  • Lot’s of SDK and engine updates to try and make it easier to work on in the future.

So I’ve been busy and will continue to be, but I’m a lone developer and keeping up with everything is hard and confusing. Much of my work is an attempt to make updating easier so fingers crossed I’ll be able to get stuff out there quicker.

Anyhow, I hope you like the changes, let me know if you have any feedback and I hope to keep developing as long as you keep wanting me too.

Keep watching

Phil
