@ShadowManXR ShadowManXR released this 08 Nov 12:01

Changes

  • Add optional horizontal and vertical FOV tangent settings to each game's Launch Preset, from 40% to 100%. FOV overrides start disabled.
  • Apply the FOV settings before launch and restore the previous values after the game exits, preserving manual changes to each axis.
  • Preserve existing FPS and quality presets and recovery records. FOV-enabled records use configuration format version 2.
  • Add “by ShadowManXR” to Settings and label higher bitrate limits as Experimental.

The Forefront FOV preset was confirmed working at 70% horizontal / 70% vertical. Automated editor, launch-hook, native forwarding, and recovery checks passed. Other games and VR runtimes still need individual verification.

Installation and upgrade

Download and extract VirtualDesktopUnlock-v0.2.1-win-x64.zip. The companion app requires .NET Desktop Runtime 10 (x64).

Update both the app and Streamer helper to 0.2.1 for FOV presets. An older helper rejects the new FOV configuration format and prevents configured games from launching.

Close games and exit the previous companion app. Keep its Data folder when moving to the new build. Uninstall the previous helper using its Uninstall RE3 Integration.cmd, then install this version using Install RE3 Integration.cmd. These scripts request administrator permission and restart Streamer; reconnect VD afterward. The legacy RE3 names refer to the shared helper used for all configured games.

Launch presets support the verified Virtual Desktop Streamer 1.34.25.0 x64 / Quest 3 setup. Game-library integration also supports the verified 1.34.23.0 binary. Higher bitrate limits remain experimental and are unavailable on 1.34.25.0.

Select a game in VD cache games, open Launch Preset, enable the desired overrides, and launch the game through VD's Games tab. See the included TESTING.md for verification and rollback instructions. Finish pending recovery and disable FOV overrides before downgrading to an older helper.

The ZIP's SHA-256 checksum is supplied as a separate asset.
