Besides 3D mode, can you provide a sphere screen like 360?

[jsy7883]

SBS provided in 3D mode is very good. But does 360 mode support the same thing?

[elvissteinjr]

Probably not. SteamVR has overlay flags for 360° panoramas, including stereo ones, but I've found them to be unstable and managed to crash the runtime using them before.

It's been a while since I last tried that out, to be fair, so it might be better now. But I also feel like the primary use for this would be video players and a proper VR video player application will do a much better job at this in any case (scope suddenly gets broad when trying to support all different projections used out there, etc).

Thank you for your answer. Is there a file that I can edit to change the texture of the UI? It doesn't change by editing files like en.ini.

[elvissteinjr]

As in, the UI colors? It wouldn't be impossible to allow changing them, but right now they're hardcoded.
If you don't mind recompiling for just that, they're set here:

DesktopPlus/src/DesktopPlusUI/UIManager.cpp

Line 1493 in ee872ab

void UIManager::UpdateStyle()

ImGui also has a style editor built-in which would allow you to make and see changes on the fly, but you'd have to add a call ImGui::ShowStyleEditor() somewhere to bring it up.

What I want is not the color, I want to change the text itself

[elvissteinjr]

In that case you can add PreferredFont=[filename] to the language file you're using. It's not exactly meant for that so depending on the font the layout might break.

This has just been added to the code though, so you'll need to use the nightly build or compile it yourself.

[jsy7883]

Sorry for the confusion. What I meant was that I wanted to change the text that appears in the UI.
Even if I modify en.ini and build, the problem is not solved. Is there another way?
For example, I want to change the text Side-by-Side in the UI to sbs.

[elvissteinjr]

Oh, uh... I don't see why editing the language file wouldn't change it. All strings are loaded from there (and if that fails you see the placeholder ID strings instead). And of course that doesn't require rebuilding.

I guess the only thing I can add is that you have to make sure to edit the file in the right location, so in the "lang" folder where the binary is, not in "assets/lang". However, the assets folder is initially copied from when doing a full build and may overwrite.
You don't really need to modify the existing file though, you can copy it under a different name to add your own, then we can disregard the potential of it getting overwritten at least.
