So sad to hear the HoloLens 3 news

Really sad to hear the news re HoloLens 3 being dropped. I started developing HoloLens training applications 5 years ago and the difference we made to our clients was amazing.

It is (of cause) also very sad for the amazing people who worked on it.

Update details for version 1.62 Changes: New light asset. We added the unity light asset so you can now add extra lights to your scene. e.g.  <hologram uri="Light" uid="A10"  positionxyz="1.783,-0.589,5.575"  color="255,255,255,255" type="spot" intensity="250" range="1" show="true" rotationxyzw="0,0.7071068,0,0.7071068"></hologram> Where [type] can be spot, point or area [Color] is the RGBA value of the light [show] sets the light on or off and should be set in script to true or false  We also support the unity values for [Intensity] and [range]   Hololens scene load sequence messages . Lots of work has been done to handle 2 or more HL working together to inform the secondary devices (anything other than the primary device running the load sequence) how many assets they are waiting for it to load when changing scenes. There is a new state of "Waiting for the s

Scenaria Sharing If you have used Scenaria you will have seen the Sharing menu (see fig 1 below) We support sharing session between unlimited (subject to bandwidth and server support) HL users. We support both local and remote users, simple avatars and (for users in the same room) alignment of anchors (making sure all users see the same thing in the same place). In this release, the sharing model is very open, there is no identity service - anybody with a HL and the app can join a room.     fig1 - the sharing menu. Each time you load Scenaria you are allocated a random empty room. You can use this room to load a scene into - by  Clicking on your 'Home' icon Typing the URL in,  Following a link in another scene Using bookmarks (available in the next release)  Sharing (or multi-lensing) - if you wanted to share this room with other HL users you need to tell them room number (in the example above the room ID is 068848) much like we do when setting up
