Other Changes
- The VTube configuration file location was in "c:\ProgramData\VTube", but this caused issues for some customers with computers using restricted rights. Now it is moved to the "C:\Users\Public\Documents\VTube\Config" folder.
- The Supravision network engine has been enhanced to handle data files that don't follow the Supravison spec perfectly.
- We fixed a ball probe measurement issue where VTube would sometimes not always take in single points from the FARO driver. This issue created problems with measuring cut planes too. If you measured cut planes, and still couldn't get the cut plane to work properly, then it was probably due to this issue.
Other
- Back to VTube-STEP
- Back to VTube Software Updates (for LASER Mode)
