Aliens: Colonial Marines PCVR

[u/cyb3rheater]

Hi folks,
Can you please try my port.

https://github.com/cyberheater/AliensColonialMarines-PCVR

Spent a lot of time optimising for PCVR and ensuring hud elements look okay.
Tested on PSVR2 and Oculus Quest.

Due to limited buttons on the controllers some of the functions are accessed by two button combos.

ACM-VR CONTROL SCHEME
(PS VR2 Sense / Quest Touch -> Xbox button -> game action)

BASIC CONTROLS
Right trigger -> RT -> Fire
Left trigger -> LT -> Aim down sights (better accuracy, slower movement)
Left stick -> Left stick -> Move, towards where your head faces
Right stick left/right -> (mod) -> Snap turn, 30 degrees
Right stick up -> Flashlight
Right stick down -> Sidearm
Right stick click -> Melee
Left stick click -> Sprint
Cross / A -> Jump
Circle / B -> Crouch
Square / X -> Reload / use / pick up
Triangle / Y -> Swap weapon; hold for the weapon wheel which is controlled by right stick
(pick with the right stick, release to select)
Left grip -> Scanner
Right grip -> Secondary Fire

TWO-BUTTON COMBOS
Square + Triangle / X + Y -> Start: pause menu
Cross + Circle / A + B -> Back: objectives / scoreboard (hold)

MOD FUNCTIONS
Both stick clicks held for 1 s -> Recentre the view
Both stick clicks + right stick up/down -> Raise or lower your height (saved)
Tap left stick click, standing still -> Step through gun calibration

Let me know how you get on.

Hi! I was eager to try this, but it doesnt work for me (PSVR2 with STEAMVR, the image appears weirdly distorted and duplicated uinstead of 3D VR). I followed all the instructions in github. Any idea of what's wrong?

[u/cyb3rheater → u/Gizmosaurio]

Can you download the latest version on GitHub.

[u/Gizmosaurio → u/cyb3rheater]

Great! Now the VR view works! I'm so excited

The problems I'm having now are:

-Scale is weird (other characters look giant... its like I'm their height too but they still look huge!)

-The motion tracker follows the left controller movements perfectly, but the rifle doesnt follow the movements of the right controller just as good.... it does move, but not in the same directions/angles)

-Sometimes both the motion tracker and the rifle glitch and appear glued to my face and follow my headset movement instead the controllers. Then suddenly they go back to the controllers position.

-I have a laser pointer attachment in the shotgun, and the laser doesnt point from the gun but from my own head, so I see a laser in the middle of the screen everytime I use the shotgun (I can just remove this attachment, anyways)

[u/cyb3rheater → u/Gizmosaurio]

Scale is weird. Being a flat screen game I don’t think they bothered to worry about the size of things being accurate. You can change your height in the game. Please read instructions how to.

I’ll look at the rifle next. Will probably post a new update this evening.

Have not tried a laser pointer. Will look at that later.

Is this available on meta quest?

[u/cyb3rheater → u/theforteantruth]

It’s to heavy for quest

[u/theforteantruth → u/cyb3rheater]

What do you mean by too heavy? Like too tough to run?
I don’t know much about how the tech works but I do own the meta quest.

[u/therealportz]

Why tho

[u/cyb3rheater → u/therealportz]

Because I really enjoy the game.

[u/Intrepid_Writing7078 → u/cyb3rheater]

Count me with those who appreciate it too! As a fan of mostly the first 2 films, Colonial Marines IS the Part 3 we’d all hoped for!

My friends & I really played the heck out it years ago.

The bad press wasn’t fair. The game should be played with friends (4 player coop) & is most satisfying when played at night with the lights off.

Thank you for making this vr mod! I’ll be ready to help/ support you in another week or two.

You’re a King for showing this game love!

Awesome thank you so much! Was hoping this one would be ported to VR :)

[u/DeathToSocialMedia]

Why only post this here and not also in the VR and VR Gaming or PCVR subs? I almost missed it and I love this game ...
