@bigmak94 bigmak94 released this 03 Oct 13:03

The first release of AstroQuest: ASTRO BOT Rescue Mission (PS4 / PlayStation VR) in virtual reality on Meta Quest 3, either on the headset alone or from a Windows PC through Virtual Desktop.

You need your own dump of the game: the European release CUSA12392, version 1.00, as an extracted folder (eboot.bin, sce_sys, sce_module...). No game files are included.

Downloads

File What it is
AstroQuest-0.11-Quest3.apk The Quest 3 app ("Astro VR Host"). Install it with adb install -r AstroQuest-0.11-Quest3.apk (or SideQuest), copy the game with adb push CUSA12392 /data/local/tmp/astro/games/, pair the DualSense with the headset, and start it from Unknown Sources.
AstroQuest-0.11-PC-VR-Windows.zip The PC version. Unzip it to a short path such as C:\Games\AstroQuest, put the game in games\CUSA12392, set Virtual Desktop to VDXR and 120 Hz, connect the DualSense to the PC, and start Play Astro Bot VR.bat.

Step-by-step instructions: README.

What you get

  • Quest 3 on its own: 30 frames a second in the levels and 45 in lighter scenes, each frame shown for the same time, at 90 Hz; the DualSense with its motion sensors, touchpad, rumble and light bar; the controller placed in the game by the hands holding it; 3D sound; the microphone for blowing at things. World 1 (levels 1-1 to 1-4) has been played through.
  • PC + Virtual Desktop: 60 frames a second at 120 Hz, as on the console, multisampled, at up to 3600x3840 an eye (2880x3072 by default); the DualSense on the PC, or the Quest's Touch controllers.

Good to know

  • Only CUSA12392 version 1.00 is known to work.
  • On the headset, the app keeps your saves in its own folder: updating keeps them, uninstalling deletes them.
  • On the PC, keep the folder path short: Windows does not let the emulator open game files whose full path is longer than 260 characters.
  • On the headset, 0.11 does what 0.10 did: it is 0.10 rebuilt from the published source.
