A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

A new beta version has been pushed out to the beta branch (selectable in the Properties window of the app). With added support for the new input profile system in SteamVR. The dashboard is now usable with the hydra, but the profiles aren't perfect yet, so you can expect some problems with games. For now, I removed the developer features and made all of the buttons accessible from the new controller binding/mapping interface in Steam, so you can do whatever you want with the buttons. Also the new default button mapping (which is user changable) is "mirrored". This means that Button3 and Button4
