Quick Update to export Custom Stages to PDF

Just got a request which I thought would be a great idea, so I took a day to get it done. It's still rudimentary but it works well.

Some of the players use PractisimVR to build custom stages for their real-world IPSC/USPSA matches and wanted a way to export the stage design and description into a PDF.

The save function in the Stage Designer will now automatically export the stage description PDF file into this folder: %appdata%/../LocalLow/AncientSky Games/PractisimVR/customstages

Here's an example:


Give it a whirl and give me some feedback.

Loke

Game Start bug found and squished. Please update.

We just found a game start bug which quits the game right after starting it. It has been squished. please force an update by restarting steam or logging off and logging back on.

thanks for the patience.

Update #51 - PCC adjustment and Mover

Quick little update for features requested by players.

Changelog v0.63
* Made PCC start more forgiving
* Added mover to Practice stage

Update #50 - Pistol Caliber Carbine

Week #50. Finally got around to doing this. One of the most requested features from players of the game. Pistol Caliber Carbine. Took a while to retrofit the game code to support this. I wish I could go back and rewrite the core part of the game, it would have made supporting other gun types easier. That said, here you go!


Changelog v0.62
* Pistol Caliber Carbine
* PCC starts with low ready
* PCC starts with Muzzle on X's
* PCC Starts on table
* Fixed manufacturer detection


Enjoy!

Something fun coming next week!

Sorry I couldn't finish this week's update in time. There's still some work to do to get it out, so hopefully next week. Here's a quick teaser as to what's coming :)



Update #49 - Billy's Dance stage, Dynamic Sky & Weather and Best of 4,5,6 rounds.

Week #49. I'm back with an early release because this weekend is the 2018 Area One Championships in Montana. We have a new stage featuring the Best of 6 modifier. You can now specify minimum scoring rounds per target from 1 till 6 as requested by a player on the forum. I've also introduced dynamic sky and weather effects that will change randomly throughout your play cycle. Hope you guys like the new added effects.

No Updates this week

Hey guys, we won't be pushing any updates for this week. Next one will be on this coming Thursday before we head off to Montana for the 2018 Area One Championships.

Have a great week!

Update #48 - Boat Prop & USPSA Area One 2017 Stage 12

Week #48. Apart from the addition of this week's stage, Stage 12 from the Area One 2017 Championships, I've also added a new Boat prop to the Stage Designer. This boat is suspended on chains which are flexible and causes the boat to move whenever you move. This prop works well in the real world but I think it causes some nausea in VR. Please test it out and let me know, I'm thinking I should remove the rocking mode which can make the players sick.


Changelog v0.60
* USPSA Area One 2017 Stage Twelve - To Prone or not to Prone
* Boat Prop
* Hyperkin Menu Bug fix


Enjoy!

Update #47 - Hyperkin Enhancement & Movable Objects

This week's update is mostly about bug fixes and some enhancements to movement when using the Hyperkin blaster. Because of the low number of button on the gun, I've enabled the 2nd controller to allow players to move around without fear of breaking the 180.


Changelog v0.59
* Hyperkin Movement Enhancement
* Movable Objects tied to door

Update #46 - Area 1 2017 Stage 9 & Viveport Launch

Week #46. This week's update includes stage nine from the 2017 Area One Championships, A fun three round per target stage. I remember beating J.J. Racaza on this stage which I felt really good. Rest of the match was horrible. :)

Changelog v0.58
* USPSA Area One 2017 Stage Nine - Team Alpha
* Viveport Launch
* Fixed Scoring bug
* Numerous internal fixes


Enjoy!
