Update v0.10.0

  • There's a new setting: "Save mounting location on server.". This will allow users using SlimeVR Server v0.6.1 or newer to not have to change the mounting placement every session. This is disabled by default as it will break on older server versions. Find it in the settings menu, activate it, then restart wrangler.
  • Re-adds support for having multiple wrangler instances connecting to one SlimeVR Server - now randomizes a mac address at first startup to allow for multiple connections.

Update v0.9.0

  • New linux integration by @ImUrX . Uses the linux kernel built in support for joycons instead of the joycon_rs crate. This should improve compatability for users that have a newer linux version.
  • Axis visualisation with dials added to UI.
  • New status information UI helps diagnose problems with joycons.
  • Added icon for pro controller to help choose right rotation.
  • Now correctly rotates accelleration data when sending it to SlimeVR Server.
  • Added toggle in settings to disable yaw reset action via button press.

Because 0.8.0 was just a week ago, the changes there are reposted below:

  • Add ability to send yaw reset to SlimeVR Server with the UP or B button. (Note: This currently needs a special beta of SlimeVR Server to work)
  • Show battery levels of Joy Con's in the UI.
  • Add UI with status of SlimeVR Server connection.
  • Reduce tracking latency when using a low number (1-2 ish) of trackers on windows.
  • Might be slightly better tracking during extreme movements.
  • Clearer information in settings page for the server address configuration.
  • Searches for Joy Con's on startup.
  • Other minor UI changes.
  • Changed back to "iced-wgpu" due to issues for some people.
  • An icon is now shown when the app is started, and icons for the windows exe too

Update v0.6.0

  • Uses VQF sensor fusion instead of Madgwick. This should improve tracking for everyone. It is still recommended to calibrate Joy-Con's using your Nintendo Switch console to ensure best quality tracking. A huge thank you to @kitlith who made this possible.

  • Updated iced-rs to v0.4. There shouldn't be any major issues but please report any major graphical glitches you encounter.
  • This release should use slightly less CPU power.
