Status uptate 2018-09-04
Added 2018-09-04 06:19:32 +0000 UTCIt's September already. Did somebody speed up the year somehow? Diidn't get to do much since last update.
What I recently did:
Better framerate management
Beta 1 could easily slow down to a less-than-optimal framerate. This was not a performance problem but my fault. I fixed it and also made sure that high-end computers don't heat up indefinitely due to MMM trying to render as many frames per second as possible. There's no use in rendering hundreds or even thousands frames per second if your display cannot show them. :-)
Drive changes in file browser
Several people reported this and it was a nuisance for me as well. But not so much that I went and finally supported change of drives. But now it does.
Bug Fixes
A few more bugs have been taken care of. Namely:
- Unable to quit PowerNap session via menu
- TechTest1 Session not showing a spiral
- Skybox not correctly updating to starfield in Session (when used)
What I hope to accomplish next (completely unchanged):
iTunes FileSharing for iOS
Though I have been an iOS developer for years I still missed that there is a feature where users can access files of an specific app if that is prepared for it. I always found that the wireless transfer of session was flawed and it doesn't work for many people out there. If I use this FileSharing feature users will instead be able to add sessions there and do not depend on the wireless transfer. I might even be able to completely remove the wireless tranfer alltogether.
Finalizing shop versions
Time to get my things together. While I definitely not release in August I still imagine being very close to being able to hit the stores.
Bring back Daydream controller support
The beta 1 does not support the Daydream controller as Unity isn't able to track that one, yet. It's high time I fix that for MMM so that owners of a Daydream can make best use of it.
And that's it for today. As always, I'm looking forward to your comments.
