StellarX Update — Late May 2023
Mixed Reality has entered the chat
Hey! We are thrilled to be back with some exciting news, and a brand new StellarX update. 🙌
In this release, we are introducing new features, improvements, and bug fixes to enhance your StellarX experience. But, before we delve into the details, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude for the overwhelming support and valuable feedback we’ve received so far. We shall continue to make StellarX better, together! So, without further ado… let’s jump right in!
When real and virtual collide
One of the most significant additions is the introduction of Mixed Reality features to the Standalone version of StellarX. Access the room you’re in from inside VR, import it to your virtual world, use enhanced passthrough, and more. Start blending the real and virtual worlds together, and access a whole new realm of possibilities for immersive experiences! 👓
Please note that only the StellarX Standalone version (accessible via the Meta Quest Store), combined with either a Quest 2 or a Quest Pro, fully supports the Mixed Reality features for now. With that said, we assure you: we are actively working to expand compatibility, so stay tuned for future updates!
What else?
We understand the importance of first impressions; that’s why we revamped the PCVR sign-in experience, ensuring you feel fully immersed from the very start. Now, instead of selecting your Mode at the launch of the app, you can select it before launch, directly from Steam. The removal of the Mode Selection page allows you to land directly on the login screen, saving you time and clicks. ⏱️
Then, we’ve optimized the performance of our Time of Day system, providing a more seamless transition between different times of the day within your virtual environment. We’ve also added many usability improvements to the Basecamp, such as small UI tweaks, suggestions for first-time users, and lag reduction.
Finally, we’ve given our Collections a makeover, adding category icons, tags, as well as a quick collections button in Desktop mode to simplify searching and discovery; and, as always, we’ve fixed plenty of bugs! 🐞
That’s it, folks! We hope you enjoy these new features and improvements as much as we do.
Since our Meta Store release this past April, we are on our merry way to reach an astounding 20,000 downloads — that’s CRAZY! It has been an amazing journey, and we’re excited to collaborate with you towards further improving your StellarX experience. Stay tuned for future updates and, as always, thank you for being a part of the StellarX community! ✨
