- Happy New Year 2019! - 1 January 2019
To celebrate the new year we have a little update for you: All users who login until January 3rd will automatically get the permanent opportunity to activate as many fireworks as they want. You don't have connect yet? You can also watch the firework in a 360° YouTube video and share it with your friends if you like: https://youtu.be/UfGewcc7pZ0 To get this unlimited firework you need to collect 5 hidden keys first to unlock the weather station and then click onto its logo. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F30449082%2Febe4d3bc992c60968a601cff9443f715c0f30f21.png If you can't find 5 keys, here are two important tips for you: 1.) Look at the best hidding places you can imaging. 2.) Some keys are easier to find in 3D mode than in VR and if you want to search them in VR, you should use the function to change your size. Get tiny small by pressing the minus key o…

- Find up to 50 hidden keys! - 23 November 2017
Did you already find one of the 50 hidden keys in your virtual home? I only found 49, but I know, that there are 50 keys in these 2 small rooms. Let's bet. I don't think, that you can even find 30 of these 50 keys. If I am wrong, make a screenshot as proof and send it to us ([email protected]) and we will give you a code, with which you can activate a weather station in your album (register tab) in the virtual organizer. https://youtu.be/PvwaRIaJkuU With the weather station you can change the time of day and the weather (rain, thunder, snow) as you like - you become a weather god! Have fun and good luck... you will need it, it's not so easy. PS: Or course you can also post your screenshots here, if you want. PPS: Please consider: When you start connect new, you will have to find the same keys once more (on the same hiding places) - your progress will not be saved, you have to remem…

- Update (Bug Fixes) - 23 November 2017
We just launched an update with some VR bug fixes. If you had problems with VR before, they should be fixed now. Please make sure that you use the new version (the background of the virtual laptop and while loading now contains instructions for the navigation) and check that the modules "connect Home" and "connect Media" are activated. While loading, press the ESC key on the keyboard to enter the settings. There you can set the two modules to "activate (fast load)". connect still has some flaws and bugs, but we will greatly improve this Early Access version over the next few weeks. Please be patient, thank you.

- Instructions - 22 November 2017
These instructions may help you. https://4connect-e.com/share/pc.pdf https://4connect-e.com/share/htc.pdf Please consider: - VR needs to load the room first (loading bar on your virtual phone). - connect doesn't have a VR interface for the loading sequence so far, but that's something we will offer soon. So please be patient until the room is loaded. - If you have any problems or bugs, please report them to us, thank you! [email protected] --------- There is a rare bug (which we will fix soon!), that sets the laser pointer to the wrong controller (e.g. you press a button on controller A, but controller B shows the reaction). Avoid it with HTC Vive: Please activate both HTC Vive controllers before you start the game or only use one of them. Avoid it with Oculus: Please press any button on your Oculus controllers while loading.

- (solved!) Problems with Oculus Controller - 20 November 2017
(solved) Oculus controller doesn't work (will be fixed within this week) Some of you had problems with the Oculus controllers (they couldn't use them e.g. to move around or interact with objects in VR) and we were able to reproduce the bug. We are working on a quick bug fix and apologize for the inconvenience! We expect to release a new version on Wednesday or Thursday that fixes the problem. If you want, you can try connect in 3D mode in the meantime. We have temporarily hidden the support of the Oculus. Oculus VR doesn't work at all (please wait until the room is loaded) So far we can not reproduce that VR does not work at all. The Oculus glasses work for us. It is correct that the 3D space is only displayed on the VR glasses after the loading or the room has finished. There is no display of the loading process in VR yet (we will integrate it soon), but you can see the loading bar on…
