HoloPlay Unity Plugin v1.5.0

Features

HoloPlay Unity Plugin v1.5.0

Features

โ—= Needs to be re-confirmed

  • (Windows ONLY) Added experimental support for screen DPI scaling for the editor preview window (for basic horizontal display arrangements).

  • The Holoplay's single-view and final screen cameras now have their stereoTargetEye set to StereoTargetEyeMask.None for better XR support.

  • Improved support for multiple Holoplay captures with the following new fields:

    • Holoplay.targetLKGName

    • Holoplay.targetLKGIndex

    • These fields allow you to directly control which LKG device connected to your computer to render to per-Holoplay object.

  • Changed HoloPlay Service errors to log as warnings in the Unity console instead of info lines.

Removed

  • Removed Multiplexing support due to its complexity.

    • If you need to use Multiplexing features, please contact us.

Bugfixes

  • Fixed the HoloPlay preview window to work on at least the following versions:

    • (Windows) Unity 2018.4 to 2021.2

    • (MacOS) Unity 2018.4 to 2020.3

    • (Linux) Unity 2019.4 to 2020.3

  • Fixed the editor preview window occasionally bleeding over monitors by about 8 pixels.

  • Fixed various issues with the Holoplay inspector not properly saving.

  • Encapsulated many previously-public fields, and deprecated many C# LookingGlass API properties that were named with camelCase conventions, and created new properties with PascalCase naming to adhere to general C# naming conventions and best-practices.

HoloPlay Unity Plugin v1.4.3

Features

  • Improved robustness of HoloPlay window management.

  • Added AssemblyDefinitions for the following:

    • LookingGlass

    • LookingGlass.Editor

    • Unity.Postprocessing.Runtime

    • Unity.Postprocessing.Editor

Your project may fail to compile in Unity temporarily if you are updating from a prior version to v1.4.3.

If you are using AssemblyDefinitions for your code, ๐Ÿ”จ Select your project's AssemblyDefinition asset(s), and make sure to reference the LookingGlass and/or LookingGlass.Editor assemblies, and hit "Apply" in the inspector.

If you are still receiving errors stating "The type or namespace name ... could not be found", It may be because we had some scripts in the global namespace that were moved into LookingGlass and LookingGlass.Editor.

๐Ÿ”จ To fix this, add using LookingGlass; or using LookingGlass.Editor; at the top of your C# scripts where needed.
