I lied! We were ready to go early! XSOverlay is now purchasable!

XSOverlay is a Desktop Overlay application for OpenVR. It aims to be as intuitive as possible, minimalist and out of the way, but fully functional. XSOverlay conforms to your needs, and will adjust...

I think something some people haven’t realized yet is that memory usage has gone down significantly since the new UI updates and will only continue to do so. XSO went from taking 300MB of ram / vram to close to around 120ish. That is a huge amount of freed up resources.
