@SgtBilko76 SgtBilko76 released this 18 Oct 10:34

First beta of 0 A.D. (Wildfire Games' free real-time strategy game) running natively on Meta Quest 3 / 3S. No PC needed.

The same APK also runs on PICO 4 / 4 Ultra / Neo 3 (PICO OS 5.9.0 or newer, tested; same button layout).

Features

  • Battlefield as a 3D tabletop in front of you, game menus and HUD on a floating panel
  • VR mode (sky around the table) and mixed reality mode (your room around the table). Switch with a short click on the left thumbstick
  • Red laser pointer with a cursor on the battlefield, drag to box-select units
  • Virtual keyboard for chat, player names and the lobby
  • 1840 x 1920 per eye at 72 Hz

Install

  1. Install 0AD-VR-Quest-v0.1.0-beta.apk with SideQuest or adb install.
  2. Unzip 0AD-VR-Quest-data-v0.1.0-beta.zip and copy the 0AD folder to the root of the Quest's internal storage, so you end up with /sdcard/0AD/data/... (with SideQuest or adb push 0AD /sdcard/).
  3. Start "0 A.D. VR" from Unknown Sources and allow "All files access" when asked.
