Release 2.6

Change Log

Featured:

• Improved calibration. We improved exception handling for merged planes in the calibration process
• New action editor. We redesigned the user interface for the action augmentation editor
• chatGPT support for characters. Character models now have chatGPT support and can store a prompt

Added:

• We added file upload via file picker for audio augmentations, creating an alternative to recordings
• We now support editing and displaying of captions for the image augmentation to improve accessibility, adding a new field to the data model accordin

Changed:

• We redesigned the user interface for the audio editor
• We remove the second (turquoise) task-station diamond indicating the position of the next step
• We removed the lines leading from the aura to the task station
• We improved the dialogue messages when publishing to Moodle
• We added rotation handles to the action augmentation
• Character augmentations can now also be placed onto 3D objects, and no longer have to be placed directly onto the spatial map, remediating a "GetRemainingDistance" error that would be flagged every frame otherwise
• We renamed the ‘apply’ button to ‘done’ in the calibration dialogue to be more precise

Fixed:

• We fixed bugs in the video augmentation that would overwrite the currently selected video when cancelling the camera dialogue
• We fixed both create and view tutorials, including fixing the way the tutorial activity for the viewing tutorial is downloaded from a resource folder
• We fixed the help tutorial for publishing activities
• We fixed an error with deregistering event handlers during application shutdown
• We fixed a bug where broken 3D models from Sketchfab would trigger an error
• We fixed a bug where a Moodle upload of an existing resource would result in an error when asking the user whether to overwrite or clone, now issuing only a warning
• We fixed a bug in the Sketchfab search, which would produce errors when you search a second time
• We fixed a bug in the label augmentation where default values for ‘turn to user’ would not be set, thus only storing the value correctly when the toggle switch would be turned on/off twice
• We fixed the materials for some character models, which seemed not to be set to the right rendering pipeline
• We fixed a bug in character models complaining about a missing FollowMeToggle

Enterprise:

• The MoodleUrl can now be set from the brand configuration file unless there already is a user preference set overriding which URL to use
• We excluded Sentry settings and sentry client settings via .gitignore so that auth tokens and DSN values are not stored on GitHub

Developer:

• We migrated the project to Unity 2022 LTS (2022.3.7f1)
• We decommissioned the IBM Watson assistant service and replaced it with openAI's chatGPT
• We upgraded online error handling to the full Sentry package, improving breadcrumbs and the stack trace, as well as adding session and user info for authenticated users
• We implemented a slider for verbosity levels for in-app bug tracking
• We reduced StyleCop to documentation checks in the MirageXR assembly, and disabled a large portion of warnings on external projects and packages
• We removed the dummy video in the root directory from the video augmentation, which was used to simulate video recording in-editor on Hololens before we introduced the file picker upload
• We fixed the calibration PlayMode test and several others that were suffering from multiple audio listeners being created in the scene
• We improved the test and build pipelines for Android and Windows
• We renamed the editor folders of all content types (to ‘editors’), to avoid confusion with the reserved folder name of Unity
• We created an openAI manager, primarily as interface for character models, but with further reaching plans
• We fixed the build for Hololens 2
