Note: To limit the number of issues in the main build, this version is currently released as a public beta only. Go to the Public Beta section of these update notes to learn how to upgrade your installation to the beta version.
Mouse Protocol
Added a new Mouse protocol: use your head to move the mouse cursor and control games that way.
Three modes: Relative (moving your head moves the cursor, like a mouse; default), Velocity (tilting your head moves the cursor continuously in that direction), and Absolute (your head position maps directly to a fixed point on screen).
Absolute mode supports multi-monitor setups and lets you keep using your physical mouse normally at the same time.
Keybinds
You can now assign up to 3 keybinds per action.
A single key can now trigger multiple actions at once.
Added a reset-to-default keybind (Backspace): hover over any setting and press it to restore the original value.
Added Set Game Center keybind (Alt+Shift+C): saves your current head position so that pressing Alt+C snaps the view back to exactly that spot.
Eye Suppression
Added an Include eyes in head tracking toggle. Turning it off prevents blinking or eye movements from affecting head tracking, which can help if you wear glasses or experience jittery tracking.
Camera Reliability
Changing camera settings (e.g. resolution) no longer freezes the UI.
LookPilot now automatically recovers if the camera disconnects or fails unexpectedly.
Community Presets
Added global search: search all community presets by game name or author.
Added pagination for faster loading.
Preset window now opens instantly instead of waiting for community presets to load.
Bug Fixes & Other
Fixed error popups stealing focus from your game: they now appear only when you return to LookPilot.
Fixed a crash on camera reload with the PS3 Eye.
Fixed a false error message on startup for users who don't have a PS3 Eye.
Fixed auto-start bug on Linux.
Improved Lutris compatibility on Linux.
Fixed repeated error messages showing up after a protocol process failure.
Fixed various axis mapping and visualization regressions.
Fixed community preset names and ranking not loading correctly on startup.
