SteamVR 2.8 hotfix: controller tracking on OpenXR-SteamVR
The hotfix addresses controller tracking after SteamVR 2.8. The developer identifies the affected runtime as OpenXR-SteamVR and says OculusXR was unaffected. Players who temporarily selected SteamVR’s previous-version beta are advised to return to the main SteamVR branch after this hotfix. [1]
Patch 6: avatar and bodylog switching broke after Patch 5
Patch 6 fixes the avatar-switching and bodylog-switching bug from Patch 5. Its detailed list also fixes removed favorited avatar barcodes breaking the BodyMall, preserving the specific removed-avatar trigger. The BodyMall barcode repair is listed separately in the same release. [2]
Patch 6: skybox missing from the spectator camera
Patch 6 fixes skybox shaders failing to render in the spectator camera. This correction is scoped to that camera’s rendering. [2]
Patch 4: scaled box and barrel grips pulled the hand toward the center
Patch 4 fixes an interaction in which grabbing a scaled box or barrel grip moved the hand toward the object’s root or center instead of the intended grip point. [3]
