Download

OutlastVR-Beta-1.0.zip (below). Unzip it and copy everything into Outlast\Binaries\Win64, next to OLGame.exe. Then run Outlast1VR.exe and choose PLAY IN VR. Full steps are on the project page and in the included README.txt.

PC VR only: SteamVR, Virtual Desktop or Quest Link / Air Link. There is no standalone Quest support. You need your own copy of Outlast on Steam.

What's in Beta 1.0

  • Full head and hand tracking: look and lean with your body, and Miles's arms move with yours.
  • The camcorder in your hand: take it from your hip, then raise it to your eye to film, zoom and see in night vision.
  • Hands-on doors: push them open with your hand, or grab the handle and swing them.
  • Climbing: go up ledges and ladders hand over hand, and vault low walls and tables.
  • Room-scale walking: Miles walks with you.
  • Comfort options: smooth or snap turning, a level horizon, less head bob, real crouching, and a film grain on/off switch.
  • A launcher that installs and uninstalls everything, with VR settings in the launcher and in the game (left grip + Menu).
  • Smoother loading: the stutter when new areas stream in is gone, and the frame rate is optimised.

Known issues (beta)

  • Some scripted scenes can bend Miles's arm oddly for a moment.
  • A door closing on you can give you a small push.
  • Some players notice slight double vision. Recenter with both stick clicks.
