Today's update is a big one! Windows 7 is now officially supported. The performance on Windows 7 will not be as good as Windows 10; 360 videos require the installation of 3rd party codecs (such as the K-Lite Codec Pack) and the motion controls don't support touch gestures (such as pinch to zoom or swipe to scroll) because the OS does not support it natively.
Here is the list of changes included in this release:
- Added official support for Windows 7
- Added motion control support in Windows 7
- Touch buttons A and X with Rift or TouchPad clicks with Vive are now mouse right-clicks
- Removed software decoding option on Windows 7 (it is enabled by default)
- Added ability to cancel video downloads
- Added separate checkbox for video voice commands (disabled by default)
- Added -ForceOpenVR command line argument
- Fixed controllers not able to interact with the screen on Windows 8.1 machines without .NET 4.6 installed
- Close button now correctly exits the app while in the MilkDrop environment
- Improved stability with video player.
Let me know if you experience any issues, thanks!
