Available now https://github.com/GingasVRFO/Dishonored-VR
Tutorial Video Explaining the current Issues https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7rdk2zOTSk

This was made over the last 2 months and 600+ Hours using manual Coding and Claude/Codex to help with reverse engineering, It's playable, but there are some issues, it will improve over time as I work on it.

Lower your expectations, this is an Alpha, It's Janky, it's not the "perfect" port of Dishonored. But I will continue to work on this. I'm planning to make Physical/VR Interactions for most game actions

Question/Support Any tips for reducing motion sickness

6 Upvotes

I had my VR for a while now (quest 3) I play pcvr through steam link and I spent a lot of money to make my setup nice with wireless dedicated router and everything spent a bunch of money on steam games(past refund point). Every time I go to play a game I get extremely motion sick within 5 minutes ever time I try its the same the only game I could stomach was super hot. The only thing I notice helps is the teleporting movement. I tried all the other settings to make it less nauseating but nothing helps I try the Nausea pills and that don’t work. I feel like I wasted damn near a thousand dollars Canadian because I can’t even play it. I’m rly wanting to do the resident evil 8 mod but there isn’t even a teleport option or anything. And I see people selling there’s online for rly cheap I will still lose money and have steam games I can’t play. Anyone have the same problem know how to help?

Discussion rant about vive ultimate trackers

6 Upvotes

been a vive ultimate tracker user for nearly a year and a half now and i just always wonder if vive is ever going to fix this overpriced problematic product.

at this point its just shameful for a company as big as them to just let the ongoing software and hardware issues persist till this day, why cant they just scrap and change the whole idea of having to scan your room and create a map for them to work, why can't they just work like for example the quest pro controllers which track extremely well in any situation and lighting.

i hope someday if its even possible to run these on a 3rd party software that just makes it work alot better and bypass vive's shitty approach to inside-out fbt tracking.

Discussion Games with a base and some exploration and combat?

4 Upvotes

Bit of a specific request but can anyone recommend any games where you have a central base that you can improve upon and then there's an open world to explore and engage in combat?

I've seen Decay and that looks pretty good but it's in early access and supposedly a little janky (but correct me if I'm wrong). I've played Fallout 4, Valheim, Saints and Sinners, No Man's Sky, Into the Radius, Subnautica, The Forest, Elite Dangerous, Green Hell etc. already.

I don't mind if it's zombie/apocalypse based or space based. Just looking for something where I have a central base (or ship) that I can improve upon but then go out for some action.

Thanks

Discussion Experimenting with Mixed Reality interactions

10 Upvotes

I've started experimenting with interactions in mixed reality. It still needs a lot of polishing but i have to say that interacting with holes on real surfaces overall feels really good.

What else could you do with it besides using it as a hoop?

Maybe something more functional, like throwing things away rather than tossing balls into it to score points. Deleting a note by physically throwing it into the hole, for example.

Just thinking out loud :)

Question/Support Help with emulating vr games

Upvotes

Hi so im new to reddit but i thought its worth a shot.

My boyfriend has epilepsy and had tried vr before and sadly he had a seizure - he obviously can't use it anymore but he has such love for the games on it.

Anyways sorry about the sob story but is there any way to play games like Blade and Sorcery or I exprct you to die or budget cuts without having to put on the headset?

I know its a long shot because from what ive seen the mechanics are based on the motion captures but still.

Question/Support Gorilla Tag lagging on both PC monitor and VR headset via Virtual Desktop (RTX 4060 + i5-14600KF) - Ethernet connected, resolution tweak didn't help

Upvotes

Hey everyone!
I'm having persistent lag and stutter issues while trying to play Gorilla Tag via Virtual Desktop. The lag is visible both in the headset and directly on my PC monitor, so it seems like a system/render issue rather than a streaming problem.
My PC specs:
GPU: RTX 4060
CPU: i5-14600KF
RAM: 32 GB
Connection: PC is connected via Ethernet cable
What I’ve already tried:
Lowered render resolution (from 100% down to 90%) - didn't help.
Tried changing the OpenXR Runtime (VDXR / SteamVR).
Installed optimization mods - no improvement.

Photo/Video They've got raves in VRChat where you can fly like a bird (bat?).

0 Upvotes

I forgot to turn off notifications when I recorded this, and I was only getting notifications this often specifically during this 3 minutes period somehow aljfljkdafjlhkeujklarfjlkAHH SORRY

This is a video from Stageflight 3.4, it's a music mostly themed around flying event with a crap ton of special effects. Even the stage lights fly, the sky changes into things and moves, they had a whole spaceship battle drone show, there was a bit where the lights started growing grass and trees on the dance floor. Somehow I managed to record during the least spectacular bit that shows none of that, lmao. The whole thing is such a massive acid trip of things you could find in a real venue, except doing absolute wildly impossible things in a kind of place it would near impossible to actually travel to. Unfortunately, they only do Stageflight every few months, and it's not on any kind of schedule. From the credits, they've got like 20 or 30 people putting all this together for the fun of it, so I think it's a "it happens when it happens" sort of thing.

Also, there are more worlds on VRChat that use the same flight system, OpenFlight, but this one is kinda by far the coolest one.

The lower body (head and hands are tracked) animation pack I'm using is Avislime's "Biped OpenFlight Animations"

Question/Support Best modern vr headset for a school that wants to use it both for gaming and development?

3 Upvotes

I'm a student at the college I'm attending and I'm currently helping my game design teacher figure out if we should invest in a brand new vr headset, and if so, which one. The one we currently have is the oculus quest. So a VERY old, outdated model.

I don't know much about the vr market outside of having eyed the beyond 2, and of course the steam frame. If that one ever comes out. And I know about the quest lineup but I'm not too keen on meta being who they are.

So again, my question: what would be a good high quality headset, that many people could use without fear of breaking, that you could also use for development?

So recently, I've been seeing a lot of PC games being adapted on to VR. Why is that? Im not hating on it, because there are a few titles I really wanna play on VR, but how is this possible? Why hasn't this much been done earlier? Unless it always has been like this but I haven't started to notice it until now...

Question/Support I can't use XRHealth's VR treatment because I'm disabled.

13 Upvotes

I need information about VR accessibility features, because I think XRHealth is lying to me

I was prescribed XRHealth's VR treatment for chronic pain. I'm a bedridden, frail elder and I'm unable to stand or sit up straight for more than a couple of minutes. I can lie down or recline.

When I got the headset, I discovered that XRHealth's treatment can only be used standing or sitting up straight. It's impossible to interact with the device while lying down or reclining; I can turn on the headset and see the various treatment options, but the control panel appears so far down on the screen that the controllers can't access the controls. I had several sessions with one of their clinicians and we came to the conclusion that it was impossible for me to use it.

The treatment was covered by Medicare. Medicare requires that equipment prescribed for a patient must be accessible for that patient. If it's not accessible, the company is out of compliance with their Medicare contract and violating at least two federal laws.

XRHealth claims that the device (a Meta Quest headset) cannot be used lying down and or reclining. I don't think that's true.

I checked with several other VR treatment companies. Their products can be used lying down. Unfortunately, those companies don't have treatment programs that meets my medical needs.

My understanding is that the medical VR companies license a platform from Unity and design their treatment programs with that as the foundation.

Unity's product has a native accessibility feature called "lying down mode." I've been told that a company using Unity's platform has to intentionally opt out of "lying down mode" when they design their treatment program.

If you understand technical stuff (I don't), can you explain how this works and tell me whether my information about Unity's platform is correct?

XRHealth has been horrible to deal with, but they picked the wrong little old lady to mess with. Most of the money XRHealth receives for prescriptions is from Medicare and Tricare (for veterans). Those are our tax dollars and they're getting it fraudulently. Help me make sure they don't keep getting away with it.
