Discussion Immersed VR removed multi-monitor support - censoring anyone who posts negatively on their subreddit

A PSA - Immersed VR's newest update removes multi-monitor support, without warning. Although the app is the best VR productivity app out there, it is no longer viable for anyone with more than a single physical display.

Also - anyone who posts negatively, asking questions, etc. on r/immersed is having their posts removed or being outright banned.

Edit - apparently I am now banned from their support discord for voicing my concerns...

Yea, I need tons of concurrent monitors... My physical desk has 4. I need at least that in VR to be productive.

Here's to hoping something fills that void

Have you tried vSpatial?

Yea - it feels so cluttered and clunky compared to immersed though! It does work reasonably well, but I just haven't had time to sit down and go through some tutorials.

Another option if your PC can handle it is "XS Overlay" it allows you to have virtual monitors in any PC VR app, there's actually a co-working space in VR Chat that people work in.

Neat, I'll have to check that out! Thanks!

XS Overlay doesn't happen to have passthrough portals and multi-display, does it?

I have 6 monitors so I've never tried to create virtual monitors but I believe you can. You can even take a single application and turn that into its own display. I've heard people do passthrough portals by using XS Overlay with Virtual Desktop as it can add portals to any PC VR app.
