BetterVR 0.9.18: Two-Handed weapons, comfort and bug fixes

Hey all,

While I'm still hard at work at improving performance (which required reworking the entirety of the stereo rendering), I wanted to do a intermediary release with some cool features and some commonly requested bug fixes in it:

  • Add dual-handed weapon support:
    • Large swords and spears can now be wielded with both hands.
    • You can still use them one-handed, but two-handed attacks deal significantly more damage.
  • Fix Link's shadow not showing his head.
  • Add snap turning with a slight blink
  • Fixed jittery smooth camera rotation
  • Added bow aiming options for third-person players
  • Added experimental quality options to improve performance:
    • Disable god rays (slight improvement)
    • Disable shadows (kind of broken, but useful for ROG Ally's and Steam Frames maybe?)

Other Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed transparency issues with the bow aiming arc.
  • Fixed seal riding regressions.
  • Fixed Link's bad hair (day) whenever going into a third-person cutscene while in first-person.
  • Some minor performance improvements.
  • Add error when using incompatible Cemu versions like Cemu 1.26.2
