This page provides information on Telemetry for the Chaos Player Improvement Program.
Overview
The Chaos Improvement Program is based on telemetry. It allows Chaos to track general Product usage statistics and to automatically collect crash information. The information collected includes what Product functionality and/or parameter values people use most often, which helps Chaos to optimize and improve the Product's performance.
No scenes, assets, or materials are collected.
The collected data is sent when Chaos Player is closed, and is stored locally in text files.
For Windows, the files can be found in the folder C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\ChaosGroup\telemetry.
For Linux, the files can be found in the temp directory /tmp/ChaosGroup/telemetry/.
The collected data is viewable with a text editor.
Enable Feedback Program
Once Chaos Player is successfully installed, you are invited to participate in the Chaos Improvement Program. By choosing to participate, you can contribute to the improvement decisions for the future versions of Chaos Player.
Your participation involves sharing anonymized telemetry, with the option to enable personalized telemetry too.
With Anonymized Telemetry, you share data on frequently used features and parameter values, which is not personally identifiable and is used mainly for aggregated statistics.
With Personalized Telemetry, you share the same data as with Anonymized Telemetry, along with information tied to your individual user license. This information contains personally identifiable information and enables Chaos to further optimize the product for better personal use.
You can change your choice at any time.
The Feedback program is activated by enabling the Share analytics data button, available on the Help make Chaos Player even better window of the installer.
