H-View

Hello,

This repository is mostly a personal learning project and has various functions:

• It is my personal OSC Query debugger, and communicates with VRChat by listing all the available addresses.
• It can display the entire Expressions Menu if that menu was exported during the avatar build process using another Unity Editor tool I made specifically for this purpose (learn more).
• It can display the status of all VR hardware.
• In addition to the desktop window, it also has an implementation of the ImGui.NET window:
  • being rendered into a SteamVR overlay (introduction commit) using the OpenVR API and Veldrid,
  • with some basic overlay mouse input (class, introduction commit),
  • and some eye tracking input (class, introduction commit).

For more information, open the website page.

About VRChat login

This page previously had a section about VRChat login. It can be found at this link.

Launch options

• No option specified: Starts as a desktop window. If SteamVR is running, it also creates an additional dashboard overlay.
• --no-overlay Starts as a desktop window.
• --register-manifest On Debug config only: Register the application path to SteamVR. By default, debug builds do not register themselves.
• --no-register-manifest On Release config only: Do not register the application path to SteamVR.

Conditional compilation

This project has various compilation constants available, see h-view/src/ConditionalCompilation.cs

• INCLUDES_OCR (Release, Debug): Include OCR text recognition and translation from screenshots.
• INCLUDES_OPENVR (Release, Debug): Include OpenVR/SteamVR functionality. When not set, only desktop functions will be active.
• INCLUDES_STEAMWORKS (Release, Debug): Include Steamworks DLL, intended for use with Steam distribution.
• REGISTER_MANIFEST (Release, Debug): Register the application manifest path, so that SteamVR can provide the option to auto-start it with SteamVR.
• COOKIES_SUPPORTED (Release, Debug): Enable communication with VRChat API, see VRChat Login section above.
• ENABLE_FAKE_VRC_OSC (Release, Debug): Create a fake VRChat OSC server, so that other applications may send data to H-View when VRChat is not running (i.e. face tracking).
• USE_CONSTS_IN_RELEASE (Release, Debug): Replace static bool properties with const bool fields in ConditionalCompilation.cs.

Third-party acknowledgements

• Third party acknowledgements can also be found in the HThirdParty/ subfolder:

  • Open HThirdParty/thirdparty-lookup.json
  • For the full license text of the third party dependencies, open HThirdParty/THIRDPARTY-LICENSES/ folder
  • The same information can be found through the user interface within the application, in Options > Third party acknowledgements
  • When h-view is executed as a debug build, the file THIRDPARTY-generated.md will be generated in the executable folder.

Steamworks

If the project is compiled with INCLUDE_STEAMWORKS (only on Debug and ReleaseSteamworks builds), the Steam API will be included.

This is used to build my own application for distribution through Steam. See Steamworks API.
