BFVR v1.0.1

BFVR v1.0.1 is a complete player release for Battlefield 1942 VR.

Highlights

  • Added compatibility for SteamVR OpenXR and Virtual Desktop through both
    VDXR and SteamVR mode.
  • Added Aircraft Pitch + Roll on Same Stick and Swap Aircraft Sticks
    settings. Both default off, preserving the v1.0.0 aircraft layout.
  • Added support for community game packages that bundle BF42++ as a recognized
    dsound.dll proxy. If a separate bf42++.dll is also present, BFVR uses the
    bundled proxy and avoids injecting BF42++ twice.
  • Disabled Battlefield 1942's internal frame limiter only in the BFVR-launched
    process, producing far smoother VR gameplay without modifying the normal
    flat-game configuration.
  • Fixed OpenXR startup on runtimes that require OpenXR 1.0 and corrected
    SteamVR presentation synchronization.
  • Isolated BFVR's renderer path from package-local dgVoodoo and DXVK/Vulkan
    renderer files while leaving those files untouched for ordinary launches.

BFVR has now worked in testing with at least four to six substantially
different available Battlefield 1942 packages. A particular untested package
may still be incompatible.

Installation

BF42++ remains a separate prerequisite and is not bundled with BFVR. Some
community Battlefield packages already include it; do not add a second copy
when the package already supplies BF42++ as dsound.dll.

The installer is intentionally unsigned, so Windows may show an Unknown
publisher
warning.
