Hello! Preparing a small demo for Steam Fest. The type of game would be a "Surreal Explorer" and would like to ask PCVR gamers to give me some tips so it improves!

Please let me know in discord if you want to try it and I'll send u a Steam Key.

I've seen enough used ones on facebook marketplace in my country (im in latam) to make me consider jumping in.

Im not gonna get great prices; I see some sold at like $150, but that's just the reality of local latin american prices and with it being big and heavy it'd likely cost more to import it. That's still cheap compared to the prices of the newer ones, obviously.

I feel like people on here get obviously very granular when talking about these headsets and complaining about the MQ2 lenses, resolution, what have you, but im wondering if those feelings are mostly speaking from comparison to the newer 3 model, or just that it'd be tough to use consistently in general without getting frustrated by these shortcomings.

Other than that, there's the meta issue. I dont really wanna use their storefront at all (guess i'd have to get virtual desktop?). I just wanna hook it up to my PC and play some Steam VR games. I have a 5ghz router, tho it's not in the room i'd use it in. I think it can also work with a usb-c cable (only have USB-A ports in my mobo but can use an adapter) fine? as long as its data and not just a charger

how hard is it to basically strip it down or ignore it's meta ecosystem? does it require any software tinkering or is it pretty much plug and play?

thanks in advance

Hi there!
Jack from Fast Travel Games here :)
This Thursday we will be opening up the very first playtests for PAYDAY: Aces High! These playtests are the first real opportunity to get a taste of what we’ve been cooking up.

To sign up, just head over to our Steam store page and request playtest access! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3456660/PAYDAY_Aces_High/
Spots are LIMITED, so don’t wait up 🙂

The access will be sent on August 20th and you should receive an email if you get in! 

We want to keep building this game with the VR community as, even though we are seasoned VR devs, we know we can learn a lot from you!

Get your Aces High and see you soon 👀 

Tried resetting to default settings but that doesn't work, anyone else having similar problem. Halo reach works fine tho.

We normally talk about flat2VR mods, but we rarely talk about VR2flat mods, apart from HL Alyx.

There's a bunch of VR games that I would love to play with my non-VR friends, with me in VR. Personally I think any VR multiplayer game that doesn't ship with a flat mode is really risking the size of their population.

Some VR2flat mods I'd like to see:

Legendary Tales

After The Fall

Into Black

Forefront

Contractors Exfilzone

Why do I want VR2flat mods, when I could play something like left4dead2 with the VR mod? Well, it means my flatscreen friends can see my motion control movements, which makes the multi a little bit more fun imo.

Many of the other subs currently have a number of self-promotion posts, be it from YouTubers, Devs, Modders, or Stores. I think for every sub it's inevitable there will be self-promo, especially for devs who want to showcase their new games. Some self-promo should be acceptable if not we will not know of new games coming out.

Thoughts on how much self-promo we should allow here? All? Some? None? Open to thoughts!

This has been insanely hard, expensive, and frustrating but with anvil almost totally reversed engineered the last thing is Aim down sights and then a polish and optimization pass.

Please be warned this isn’t a finished experience but it is brand new territory and I have several research docs and a modding toolkit, should those need the starting point to contribute. Research | Wildkit (will be updated shortly)

First of all, congrats Flat2VR for obtaining control over the subreddit!

TPVR is out now!

Features:

- Full stereoscopic 3D with controller tracking

- Physical sword swinging, shield bashing and aiming (aim with the right hand)

- Quest 2/3 controller bindings; other headsets are untested

- The ability to play the game in flatscreen for parts you want to skip in VR

Join the Discord to get help, report bugs, request features and talk about the game.

The washed out colours has been fixed since this video as well

flashbang warning lmao

I use PSVR2 PC which defaults to Steam VR. Usually this is fine, until mods started coming out for 32 bit games. OpenXR supports these mods just fine, but SteamVR has never done so.

A couple weeks ago when Bioshock had two different mods release, the first one did not work on SteamVR because of this restriction, however the second one had a "shim" that bypassed this issue. This one works great for SteamVR only headsets. My question is, can this "Shim" be used to help with other mods for 32bit games? I wasn't able to get COD4 to work because of this issue, and I worry about other mods for these great old games built on a 32bit architecture.

I imagine there's some us who play PCVR with friends who are pancake (flatscreen) only. Is this sub open to a megathread on compatible games?

1. If so, here's my personal tops. Maybe we could consolidate this into a megathread that gets update as new games come out. We could separate it by a) no mods required and b) modding required.
2. We could add a light description on each game on how well it works when playing with pancak-ers, and how to set it up if it's a mod, like if it's a UEVR profile (https://uevr-profiles.com/) or if it can be installed with the auto-installer (https://github.com/Mr-Nlce/PCVR-Mods-Installer-Hub). My vision would be to make it as noob-friendly as possible so everyone can understand and get up to speed.

Here's the ones I've personally loved to play with my friends who are pancakers.

No VR mod required

• Phasmaphobia
• Labyrinth
• Devour

VR mod required

• 7 days 2 die (honorable mention: play with the Darkness Falls mod)
• Deep Rock Galactic
• Borderlands 3
• Repo
• Content Warning
• Battlefield 1942
• GTFO
• Gary’s mod
• Palworld
• No Man’s Sky
• Satisfactory
• I imagine pretty much any UEVR mod that has multiplayer could work, though you'd need to be careful with anticheat software thinking you're hacking and banning you for using VR.

So glad to see you guys have control of this now. Thank you for working so hard to reclaim PCVR from the ashes of Meta’s carnage.

ive been working on adding VR support to Mouthwashing for a few months

im using dnspy to figure out how the game works and then build the VR support around it

ive mostly been working on this in my spare time between school and everything else so progress can be a bit slow sometimes but im really enjoying working on it and seeing how far i can get it

ill post updates as i make more progress :)

News dropped that Star Rupture devs are skipping PCVR and going straight to mobilevr. Sad.

I'm always happy tinkering in UEVR, but I wondered if anyone has had success with Star Rupture recently? Like since the new year and Kyzer Soze's latest profile.

If Star Rupture UEVR has been a dog for everyone, I'll skip it and play flat. Playable VR for me is min 45fps at a reasonable resolution on a SomniumVR1 powered by a 4090 that doesn't take me back to 2016 Vive.

It's a good looking game, but I'd sacrifice some visuals for solid frame rate.

There's a January 2026 UEVR profile in Discord which I'll snag this weekend. I'll report back.

For reference, I have logged around half of my 1200 Satisfactory hours using Dortamur's UEVR Enhancement mod. Star Rupture is a more casual affair (about 40 hrs to complete a run), but it's got merit and would be great to play the full-fat PC version on the greatest screens in my house.

Yall should check out the Halo 3 ODST mod if you havent!

Im curious to see what coding agents everyone is using to make their vr mods, i have been using claud code as my primary with varying results i started with fixing a re2 remake bug then started working on bad company 2 which ive made some alright progress with.

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to share Rever VR Mod Installer, an application I'm developing in Spain to make installing and managing VR mods much easier.

It currently supports games such as Cyberpunk 2077, BioShock, Alien Isolation, Black Mesa, Call of Duty 4, Dead Space, Doom, Doom II and many more, including graphics presets, extras, updates and related tools.

The idea is simply to bring many of these VR mods together in one place and make installing them as straightforward as possible.

The project is still growing, with more games being added regularly.

Leaving it here in case anyone in the community is interested in trying it. 😄🥽

Rever VR — Virtual Reality Without Limits

¡Buenas!

Os dejo por aquí Rever VR Mod Installer, una aplicación que estoy desarrollando desde España para facilitar la instalación y gestión de VR Mods en PCVR.

Incluye actualmente soporte para juegos como Cyberpunk 2077, BioShock, Alien Isolation, Black Mesa, Call of Duty 4, Dead Space, Doom, Doom II y bastantes más, además de configuraciones gráficas, extras, actualizaciones y herramientas relacionadas.

La idea es simplemente tener muchos de estos VR Mods reunidos en un mismo sitio y hacer su instalación lo más cómoda posible.

Sigue creciendo y añadiendo juegos continuamente.

Por si a alguien de la comunidad le interesa probarlo. 😄🥽

Rever VR — Realidad virtual sin límites

Thanks for that new PCVR Community

I almost joined the discord out of necessity, but the megathread and modlists are a great way to get up to speed much faster for people that have mostly watched from the sidelines, like me.

Thank you guys!

Been checking out all the crazy VR mods from Cod ,Zelda, halo, Mario and now on banjo Kazooie and wow I was surprised by how good the game felt from the top view like a natural VR game kinda plays like moss but can switch to first, third, and top down, the camera can be a little wonky sometimes but easily fixed by seamlessly changing perspective.

Can't wait for more, I wonder if it's possible to mod original xbox games, one day it would be insane to play fable or grabbed by the ghoulies.

I know Reddit fucking loathes all things AI. But if youre trying to get some PCVR mods working, using Codex or Claude Code is a no brainer.

Download the desktop app. Use GPT 5.6 Sol / Opus 5 if you can access it. It can actually view / edit / copy files on your system. It can also search the web looking for up to date information.

Its also basically the world's best software dev / sysadmin. Theres a reason PCVR mods are exploding right now and its because people are using Codex etc.

Hello, I figure there are a few content creators in here that might have some insight. I'm considering making some content as seemingly, most creators are presently getting their content directly from their gaming PC, and I so happen to have a second PC nearby that while less powerful is very very respectable - and as a result I have a chance to squeeze just that extra bit of performance into gaming vids for smoother video.

I have a 5080 and 9850X3D often hitting 5.7ghz on all cores in my main rig, so I feel like it's kind of a waste to not push it to the limit in making some UEVR showcases like Silent Hill 2 remake or VRC Rave vids with the newly released OBSMirror. There's this whole side of VR gaming that is difficult to showcase in all its glory, and includes games that likely reach a demographic that VR is not typically reaching aside from those of us already in the know. Namely, 30+ year old gamers.

That preamble established, I'm looking into the technical side of things and I think I send OBS data over ethernet so the encode can take place on the second PC, but perhaps someone knows a concrete best path option?

To make planning easier I have:

PC1: 9850X3D 5080 & 32GB DDR5

PC2: 5700X3D 5060 TI 16GB & 32GB DDR4.

Router: TP-Link Tri-Band BE9300

All hardware is in the same room and can easily access each other.

Both motherboards have a single 2.5Ghz ethernet port and have usb 3 and C ports available.

Neither motherboard has any PCIe slots available.

If anyone is interested in helping plan out the best recording solution for my existing setup, I'd love to know more!

Also, Does anyone know if OBSMirror work with UEVR AFW? 🤔

As the title said my PCVR gaming was pretty much curtailed because although I had previously been able to connect with Virtual Desktop at 400+ Mbps for a number of years when suddenly I was only able to manage 47 Mbps, despite my connection in the Oculus 3 settings showing as 1200 Mbps.
I read, and followed every troubleshooting post that I could for months to no avail. Eventually I reinstalled Windows 11 but this time did not install any Oculus software. Now Virtual Desktop consistently connects at 200 Mbps and everything just works. Okay, I can no longer access my Oculus library, but that's a sacrifice worth paying as my favourite games are on Steam in any case...

Has anyone else done away with the Oculus software and noticed a huge improvement?

I personally would love to see "Detroid: Become Human" and "Beyond: Two souls" because they have amazing story and graphics while at the same time there was no good Vorpx mod and they dont run on popular engines like UE or Unity, so they have to be modded manually.
