What's Changed
External module support!
VRCOSC now supports externally made modules. Head over to the Module Creation doc on the wiki to get started with installing a template and creating a module.
As always, I will provide as much help as possible. No feature request is too small to make it easier for you to create a custom module, so please reach out if you'd like something.
OSC Router
OSCRouter is a program that routes network data through other ports to stop port binding issues occurring. This is mainly to help with the fact that VRC only has a single OSC port.
Unfortunately, OSCRouter seems to be quite outdated, and also cannot handle VRCFaceTracking's data. To counter this, I've created my own router and embedded it into VRCOSC as a new screen. Hopefully this should be pretty easy to use and will mean that you can run as many OSC programs as you like while needing 1 less program.
The VRCOSC router will automatically start when the modules are started.
Other Changes
- Updated to use PolySharp to use C#11 features
- Added ticker functionality into
ChatBoxText - Fixed an int text box bug
- Fixed a COMException crash due to media updates

What's Changed
- Re-written media interface to use own code instead of a library
- This code is more specialised to my use case and should provide a better experience
- Fixed
HeartrateModule's default spacing for the ChatBox - Adjusted the
HeartrateModule's normalised value to normalise from 240 instead of 60- This was causing any value over 60 to not sync correctly to remote users

- Bump framework

What's Changed
New Prefab - Trackers
- The trackers prefab lets you show the battery levels of your trackers on your avatar using real Vive tracker models
- This prefab is setup exactly the same as the others, with the guide showing you exactly what to do
- Please read to the end of the guide if you intend on using this prefab, as you must turn your trackers on in real life in the same order that is assigned in Unity. This is a SteamVR limitation
New Prefab - Controls
- Global controls for VRCOSC
- Currently just allows you to disable VRCOSC from sending values to the ChatBox, but this is very useful for when you want to use the ChatBox manually or want to turn off the ChatBox for a photo but don't want to stop VRCOSC from running
New Modules!
OpenVR Statistics
- Gets statistics from your OpenVR (SteamVR) session
- Including:
- HMD, Controller, and Tracker connected states
- HMD, Controller, and Tracker charging states
- HMD, Controller, and Tracker battery levels
OpenVR Controller Statistics
- Parses all your controller inputs into useable values
- Including:

ChatBox Text
- Show a custom line of text in the ChatBox
Themes!
- Themes have been implemented
- Check them out in the settings menu

- Feel free to pull request new themes if you want to design one!

What's Changed
Completely refactor ChatBox logic
This is a pretty big change. I've tried to explain it as best as possible below.
TL;DR:
Timed modules will show every X seconds for Y seconds. They have priority over Always modules.
Always modules will show constantly but only if they have valid text. Non valid Always modules will be skipped. Always modules' priorities are taken into account to decide which module to show.
- The new ChatBox logic allows you to set whether you want a module to always show or show on a timer
- The
alwaysmode will continuously show in the ChatBox, unless the module is sending no value, in which the ChatBox will then show the details of analwaysmodule that is a lower priority. - For example. If we enable Media and Clock and set them both to
always, the Media module will always show the details of the song that is playing unless the media is paused. When it is paused, it stops sending values and defaults back to the Clock module which is always sending the time. - Currently the priorities are in the following order: Media -> Heartrate (HypeRate & Pulsoid) -> Clock or HardwareStats.
- If there are no
alwaysmodules that are sending valid text, the ChatBox will clear. - The
timedmode allows users to set, for example, the Clock module to show the time every 60 seconds for 10 seconds. - If you have multiple
timedmodules, they will queue to show their details. - Once there are no
timedmodules in the queue, the ChatBox will default back to the highestalwaysmodule with a valid value.
Other Changes
- Allow
Mediato optionally show a value when it's paused - Allow
HeartRateModuleto reconnect on disconnecting - Fix multiple asynchronous issues
- Changed graphics of "Reset" button for all settings. Should make it more clear as to the purpose of the button
- Fix Auto Start/Stop breaking the GUI when VRC is already started on app start
- Removed AutoFocus setting
- Deleted all deprecated code
- Bumped dependencies
