tip
  • The settings window will be hidden in the task tray when minimized or inactive. If you want to keep it always visible, change the settings.
  • If the settings window is active, VRHandsFrame's CPU usage will increase slightly. If you are concerned about CPU usage, deactivate the window after completing the settings.

Device-Specific Settings​

VRHandsFrame settings are synced through Steam Cloud between devices that use the same Steam account.
Settings that depend on the device, such as the image save path and the controller input thresholds, are saved separately on each device and are not synced.
These settings are marked with on the settings screen. Point at the icon to show its description. All settings on the System page are device-specific.

info

Device-specific settings are saved separately from version 2.3.0. At the first launch of version 2.3.0 or later, the current values are kept on Windows. On Steam Frame, the device-specific settings return to their defaults.

Send Diagnostic Logs​

Select Send diagnostic logs at the bottom of the settings screen to send logs to the developer to help investigate problems and improve the app.
The logs from the current and previous app sessions (if the previous one remains) are sent. The logs include your Steam ID, PC system information, and app activity.
A confirmation is shown first, and the logs are sent only when you select Send diagnostic logs there.

UnityPlayer command line arguments (for advanced users)​

You can specify the Unity Standalone Player's command line arguments as launch options. Set it from the app properties on the Steam client.

tip

VRHandsFrame depends on Direct3D 11. If you use an option that specifies a different graphics API, it will not work properly.
