Also in this update, we added two new options into the Bigscreen settings menu:

  • Push to mute - similar to push to talk but the behavior is inverted.

  • Hide avatar arms - this hides your avatar arms in only your point of view. This option is at the bottom of Settings > Visuals & Lighting.

If you are actively using any custom bindings with your controllers, you may need to configure in the new action called mic_toggle in order for push to talk to work with your custom bigscreen bindings.
