FIX: Springback Compensation Issues Repaired
If you use springback compensation in VTube, then this upgrade is important for you. |
NEW: Springback-Compensated LRA Grids
NEW: Multi-Elongation Percentage Compensation Setup
ENHANCEMENT: Springback Compensation Calculation in the Outgoing Bender Data Is Now Optional
This feature adds springback compensation into the outgoing LRA data. In previous versions it was not optional. For some benders (for example, the Eaton Leonard Lightspeed) this addition is NOT recommended because this causes the springback to be added by both VTube and the bender. This doubles the compensation - which is incorrect. If you're not sure if you should use this option, then test how your bender uses the springback compensation values by entering non-zero Springback values in VTube's Part Setup menu, then send data with this feature activated. If the bend values display with the overbend doubled, then you know that the control handles the springback compensation automatically. |
ENHANCEMENT: Keep the Previous Custom Default Setup During Upgrades
If you've made changes to your default settings, you will want to skip installing a new set of configuration files. This version allows you to skip the installation of new configuration files with new choices in the installation file. In addition to updating the main program files, you can now also control installation of:
For example, if you changed the default setup in any way, then you should skip the installation of initial configuration files. VTube can run fine with older configurations. |
Miscellaneous Changes
- Dashes and zeros for non-functioning values in the XYZ and LRA grids are now replaced with white spaces.
- The state of the Automatic Refresh Image checkbox in the Report page was not stored and recalled. Now it is.
- The image refresh for the report menu was changed to work better on slower computers.
