Hey everyone!
I've been testing Captain Hardcore on the Quest 2 today, the increased power and screen resolution are truly awesome! After adjusting some things I managed to get it running at a solid 72fps - so the overall experience is much smoother than on Quest 1.
I've just released an update (0.3.1) with these performance tweaks and Captain Hardcore will continue to support both Quest 1 and 2 in the future. If you're using Q1 and already installed version 0.3 you don't need to download this - the performance increase is only noticeable on the Q2.
Quest 1 and 2 will always use the same .apk to install (there aren't two separate versions) but you'll be able to spawn more objects on the Quest 2 before the performance dips. I may eventually add some extra graphical settings for Q2 that take advantage of the extra power.
For the next major Quest update (v0.4) I'll try and improve performance further, this should make it possible to enable multiple characters on the Quest 2. I might be able to do this on Q1 as well, but won't know if it's possible until I make further progress.
PC players: To make sure everything was ready for the Quest 2 launch I focused on the standalone version more than usual over the last couple of weeks, but I've also been making great progress with male characters in the PC version! You can see some early images above!
I've started with a generic male while I get the basics like animation, physics, genitals, materials, and corrective morphs working. It uses mostly the same systems as the female character, but there's still a lot of work needed to get everything functioning correctly. There will be a basic male character in 0.8, then I'll work on the appearance, clothing and customisation options in another update.
Focus is 100% back on the PC version now so I'll update again as soon as I have more details!
Thank you all so much for the incredible support!
