... And I'll publish the source code tomorrow.

Unfortunately there is still intense warping when moving my head and menus are still doubled (need to close one eye to see properly).

Using Quest 3 and tried on both Steam Link and Virtual Desktop.

[Justin6400]

Played a bit of it and unfortunately, from the PS VR two side

Menus are still doubled vision and I have gotten the glitch where my weapons were just disappear and not reappear

That being said, I understand it’s in beta and I really do appreciate you doing all the work you can for working on multiple VR platforms

I hope there comes a day where it gets finished with maybe minor bugs here and there. I understand you’re one person so please take care. I’m a very patient person.

As for the disappearing weapons bug: I played for two hours before publishing the release and didn't encounter it once. I used to have that bug in v1.1-beta as well, so it's strange. It seems to be fixed on my end.

Unfortunately the distortion and double vision are still the same as v1.1 on Quest3 PCVR via Virtual Desktop

It's hard to describe but it feels like turning my head from side to side (yaw) is being interpreted as both twisting my neck (roll) and also moving it laterally - I can see my virtual arms going left and right opposite to where I'm turning.

[Alex-LeTux]

I understand what you mean about the hands moving when you turn your head. That "bug" affects everyone. There are still lots of little details like that that need to be fixed.

I think the better way to describe the warping of the xrcamera is probably, it is working like a fisheye lense. I am a VR dev myself, but i have not worked directly with OpenXR yet. The engine im using just directly grabs it and only sets the location and height as i see fit, then i attach the character to it. I may be able to figure some stuff out given enough time, but for now... the way i would describe the warping affect as a light fisheye affect. what would be causing it, I'm not very sure of. i think it might be what some one else mentioned earlier about the camera projection matrix. it would be very hard to diagnose and remedy the issues if you aren't able to test on different devices unfortunately. i have to be weary of that myself because i only have quest devices. Hopefully when you get the source code out tomorrow i can take a peek and see what i can help with.

[sleepanon]

for me its like the same type of warping looking up/down in gzdoom using software renderer

[JungleSlap]

good stuff. just needs an option to hold gun in left hand

[Baltezoid]

Is there any chance of getting this working on the Pico Neo 3? I tried converting it with Ovrport, and the game runs, but the weapons don't show up. When I fire, it's like the gun is permanently aimed at the ground, so it's impossible to hit any enemies.

[xBladeM6x]

Quest 3 here, and my hype for a fix on the warping is real. Otherwise this is fantastic!

[Alex-LeTux]

Sorry for the delay with the source code. While I was cleaning up the code, I realized I'd probably found the bug causing the warping and the menu/HUD issues, so I couldn't resist fixing that instead of continuing the cleanup.

Hopefully this finally fixes the problem for real. I'll upload the source code as soon as possible.

Iv been crashing on the mission where you have to infiltrate the building as a flight attendant.

[Alex-LeTux]

Hell yes, I'll admit I'm impatient for the warp fix lmao I wanna do a full playthrough.

Also, Duel is bugged, when you fight Johnathan you just walk into the wall until a crash.

This bug is supposed to have been fixed in version 1.2. Can you tell me which version you're using? PCVR or standalone? What's the headset model?

[Alex-LeTux]

Did you mean G5 building ?

[ArtfulRascal8]

No the mission in the snowy mountains where you sneak onto air force one as a flight attendant.
Airbase espionage

when I use my quest 3 it suddenly crashes and sends me back to the home environment, so far I can’t pinpoint the bug because it happens randomly.
So far everything else is fine though. (No other crashes)

Quest 3, both PCVR and when sideloaded with the APK. Using 1.2 beta.

On my Quest 2 I was getting the warping problem with the first release but it's fixed for me now.

Got a crash (locked up, had to exit to Quest home menu) when I tried setting the texture filtering to 3 point, but other than that no bugs after beating the first level.

I realize you've probably got a ton of more pressing issues, but the only thing missing for me personally is a height adjust (to play seated) and I'd be happy to play through the entire game in this VR port's current state. Controls feel amazing, framerate is flawless. Thanks for all your work.

[ArtfulRascal8]

Yes I usually play seated too

[JoeyFilms]

What's the ETA on the warping fix? I'm dying to do a playthrough of this. Works great on my Quest 2 but I'd forgotten what a downgrade that feels like. I want to wait until I can play it properly on my Quest 3 😂
