Stay tuned! More exciting features coming! ːsteamthisː

We’re excited to invite you to test the beta version of our newly restructured eteeConnect app, solving deprecated libraries.

- Introducing the mini-window feature
- Implemented numerous UI/UX improvements
- General backend maintenance

Make sure to also update your controllers to the newest controller firmware!
New version available: 1.3.11.beta.4

- Bugfix to 1.3.11.beta.0 (removed), which accidentally introduced input lag issues.
- Bugfix for the erratic controller behaviour that appeared sometimes when opening SteamVR without closing eteeConnect properly (controller vibrates crazily and is unusable).
- Introduced features to sync the LED lighting effects with new eteeConnect V3.

To update your controllers, please, use eteeConnect. Go to: Options > Update > Firmware, and follow on-screen instructions.

- Pushed new bindings for VRChat users that are entering the VRChat [open/beta]. The new bindings (V4_1) will need to be activated through the SteamVR Binding UI, so that the etee hand skeleton still works in the newest update. More information coming soon in a separate announcement.

To activate the beta release you will have:

• Activate the eteeConnect beta branch (see details below)
  
• Update your controller firmware version to 1.3.11.beta.4 (see details below)

1. In Steam, navigate to: "Steam > eteeConnect > Settings".
   
2. Enter the "Betas" section.

VRCHAT - STEAMVR INPUT 2.0 & SKELETONS
Hi everyone!

VRChat is updating their Unity plugin to access the SteamVR Input 2.0 system (see the VRChat announcement[feedback.vrchat.com]). In order for etee to continue working with the latest VRChat updates, our community collaborators have greatly helped us prepare new bindings for you, compatible with SteamVR Input 2.0. More details below!

🎉 Big shoutout to the amazing Hekky and Carbonated Piss, for their time and help! 🎉 You guys are amazing!

For VRChat, our users will need to activate the correct etee bindings, depending on whether or not they're entering the VRChat [open-beta]:

• Old etee bindings - V3_5: for players who don't want to upgrade VRChat. Note that if users are in VRChat's [open-beta] and use this old binding, they won’t be able to see their hands moving in VRChat due to skeletal incompatibility.
  
• New etee bindings - V4_1: for players who have updated VRChat to the [open-beta] branch.

Note: As a rule of thumb, if you cannot see your fingers moving in VRChat, activate another binding.

How it looks if you don't activate the correct binding
For example, if you have updated VRChat to the [open-beta] but you have the old bindings (V3_5) selected, your finger movement will not be registered.

How it looks if you activate the correct binding
For example, if you have updated VRChat to the [open-beta] and you have the new bindings (V4_1) selected, your finger movement will be registered correctly.


To activate the changes you will have to:

• Make sure you have updated eteeConnect.
  
• Open SteamVR and VRChat (in "open-beta" mode).
  
• Open the Bindings UI menu, by navigating to: "SteamVR Settings > Devices > Open Binding UI". (Note: If you cannot see this option, check if you have activated "Show Advanced Options" in the bottom-left side of the SteamVR Settings Menu)
  
• In the Binding UI menu:
  
  • Select the VRChat game.
    
  • Select the eteeController as your device.
    
  • Click on "Activate" in any of the V4_1 etee bindings for VRChat (recommended: [ANY TRACKER - NEW SKELETON]).

Here's a quick diagram showing the game bindings for the V4_1 bindings for VRChat [open-beta] users.

SUCCESSFUL BETA
We're happy to announce our last beta, aimed to improve etee's battery lifetime, is ready for public release! 🎉 Many thanks to everyone who helped us test the changes!

We received great feedback from our beta users and were able to fix the bug causing some controllers to turn off prematurely, even when there was still power left in the batteries.

Many thanks for your patience and happy gaming!

This release focuses on improving battery lifetime through the following changes:

• New firmware - Fuel gauge: Better battery management and fuel gauge algorithms. Previously, errors in the fuel gauge estimations of the BQ27441 component caused the controller to turn off prematurely, even when there was much battery remaining. The new firmware implements a new algorithm to detect battery level and allow you to safely use all of etee's power.
  
  • Note: The new average battery lifetime is 4.5-5h with haptics, up to 6h without haptics (navigate to the end of the page to learn how to deactivate haptics).
• More efficient haptics in SteamVR: Same user experience, less battery consumption for the etee haptics (aka. vibrations) in VR.

To activate the release you will have to:

• Update your left and right controllers firmware version to 1.3.10. (see details below)
  
• Make sure to update your eteeConnect app via Steam.
  
  • In the "Steam Client App", right-click on the eteeConnect app in your library list. Select "Properties" from the dropdown list, then in the "Local Files" tab select "Verify integrity of game".

1. Connect the controllers to your laptop or PC using a USB-C cable.
   
2. Run the eteeConnect app, and navigate to: "eteeConnect > Options > Firmware Update". If the device you want to update is detected, you will see its version number. If you cannot see this, re-plug the USB-C cable connected to the device and wait.
   
3. Next to the device, click on the drop-down menu and select version: 1.3.10.
   
4. Click "Update".
   
5. To check if the firmware was updated successfully, check the firmware version number on the left, under the device name.

New version available: 1.3.10

Instructions: To update your controllers, please, use eteeConnect. Connect your devices to your PC/laptop using a USB-C cable, and go to: Options > Update > Firmware.

Changes to firmware:

• Better battery level management, using voltage levels for low and critical battery statuses in eteeControllers.
  
• Improved battery level estimation algorithms.

New release version available: etee driver for SteamVR - v1.4.5.release

• Implemented more efficient haptic patterns, while ensuring the same user experience.
  
• New bindings for Pistol Whip & Budget Cuts 1 added.

HOW TO DISABLE ETEE HAPTICS IN STEAMVR

1. In Steam, navigate to: "Steam > eteeConnect > Settings".
   
2. Enter the "Installed Files" section, and click the Browse button to open the folder where eteeConnect is located.
   
3. Within the directory, navigate to the "eteeConnect > resources > settings" folder, and open the "default.vrsettings" file with your favourite editor. We recommend Notepad++[notepad-plus-plus.org] or VSCode[code.visualstudio.com], but you can even use text editor available in your OS.
   
4. Navigate to the end of the document, and under "etee_haptic_settings" change enable to false to disable haptics. Make sure to not add any commas after this.
   
5. Now you're ready to run SteamVR, and the changes should have been applied.
