Unreal Revived 0.9.0

Unreal Revived 0.9.0

Released 25 September 2026. Download installer and checksum.

Version 0.9.0 extends seated VR with standing play, automatic HUD positioning,
recentering and turning improvements,
runtime render-quality settings, and controller and menu fixes.

Highlights

• Seated and standing VR support. Stand, step or turn physically while the HUD
  automatically follows larger movements. Recenter preserves changes in head
  height during the session. No seated/standing mode switch is required.
• VR turning modes. Smooth, Instant Snap or Smooth Snap, with snap angles from
  15° to 90°. Smooth remains default; snap starts at 30°.
• Automatic HUD repositioning. Stable during small seated movements, with gentle
  automatic recovery when you stand, step or turn farther away. No mode selection
  needed. Menus stay stationary while you interact.
• World and HUD horizon lock. Recenter while looking up, down or sideways without storing
  head tilt in the world or HUD. Natural headset orientation remains tracked.
• Accidental mouse movement fix in VR. Mouse movement no longer adds unwanted
  camera pitch during normal first-person VR play. Head tracking and yaw turning
  remain available.
• VR render-quality presets. Switch between 75%, 100%, 125% and 150% of the runtime's
  recommended per-eye dimensions without restarting. Balanced 100% is default.
• Gaze-directed swimming and flying. Gaze-directed vertical movement complements
  the existing horizontal movement on foot.
• Stereo VR vignette. Shared head-relative fading across both eyes,
  stronger visible coverage and a single slider. Desktop appearance is preserved.
• OpenXR hardware compatibility. Additional controller profiles and runtime-driven
  per-eye sizing.
• Controller and music-menu navigation. More consistent controller Back behavior and
  improved music-player navigation and playback controls.
• Rendering statistics and display labels. VR-aware F11 statistics and clearer
  desktop resolution labels.
• VR bloom correction. Corrected bloom behavior in VR.

Installing and updating

The installer is UnrealRevived-Setup-0.9.0.exe. It requires an original
Unreal Gold installation and creates a separate Unreal Revived installation.
Use Unreal Revived for desktop or Unreal Revived VR for VR.

When updating through uninstall/reinstall, retain saves when prompted. Settings
start fresh; uninstall backs up settings and weapon calibration to a timestamped
Unreal Revived Backup folder in Documents. Reapply your preferences or restore
chosen profile files yourself. Existing weapon calibration encountered during
deployment is preserved; fresh installs receive the accepted defaults.

Unreal Revived 0.8.0

Unreal Revived 0.8.0

Version 0.8.0 with 2 VR aiming methods, Head Gaze and Motion Controllers aiming, calibrated VR
weapons, optional per-weapon adjustments, and easier key bindings.

What's new

• Motion Controllers aiming: select Head gaze or Motion controllers in Preferences

  VR > Aiming Method. Touch buttons and sticks work in either aiming mode.

• Fourteen VR calibrated weapons: original-game and Return to Na Pali weapons
  share physical sizing across modes, with separately tuned positions and more
  accurate muzzle/shot alignment, including special primary and alternate fire.
• Handedness and HUD fixes: corrected left/center gaze placement, animated
  RazorJack alternate-fire alignment, and weapon coverage over the VR HUD.
• Simpler bindings: up to three inputs per action, oldest-input replacement
  when full, persistent order and consistent clear/cancel controls.
• Updated defaults: Q/E/F select and use inventory; Home opens the command
  line and Page Up opens team chat. Existing saved bindings are preserved.

See the full changelog for details.

Optional weapon configuration

No configuration is required. The installer includes all 14 calibrated profiles
in System64/ModernVRWeapons.ini inside your Unreal Revived installation
(normally C:\Games\Unreal Revived).

To customize a weapon, edit its existing Profiles= line:

Value	What it changes
Scale	Weapon size in both aiming modes; 1.0 means 100% of the physical baseline.
GazeOffsetCM	Position while aiming with your head.
MotionOffsetCM	Position relative to the aiming controller.

Offsets are centimetres: X is forward, Y is right and Z is up. Gaze Y is
mirrored for left-handed placement and ignored for center; motion offsets are
not automatically mirrored. Save your edit and enter ReloadVRWeapons in the
game console. Both modes update without restarting or reloading the map.
This command does not write to the file. More detail: weapon tuning.

Installation and existing settings

Run UnrealRevived-Setup-0.8.0.exe and select your original Unreal Gold
installation. Setup creates a separate Unreal Revived installation and needs
your original game files. Launch Unreal Revived for desktop or
Unreal Revived VR for VR.

For an existing installation, Setup uses the supported uninstall/reinstall
flow. Retain your saves when prompted. Uninstall backs up settings, including
weapon calibration, to a timestamped Unreal Revived Backup folder in
Documents. Reinstall does not automatically restore those settings: restore
your chosen profile files from that folder after installation if you want to
keep them. When installation encounters an existing weapon configuration, it
leaves it untouched; fresh installations receive the supplied defaults.

Unreal Revived 0.7.0

Unreal Revived 0.7.0

Version 0.7.0 gives you more control over your height and your sense of scale
inside Unreal, adds protection when you lean into solid scenery, and fixes the
build and installation path for bundled mutators.

Adjust your height

Open Preferences > VR > Height Offset to raise or lower your viewpoint.
It helps you find a comfortable standing viewpoint while playing seated.
The range is -0.75 to +1.50 meters; 0.00 m keeps the original height.

Make maps feel larger or smaller

Use Preferences > VR > World Size when the environment feels too cramped
or too large. Higher values make you feel smaller in a larger world; lower
values make you feel bigger in a smaller world.

Try 150% for a map that feels small, or 75% for one that feels too big.
The full range is 40-250%, with 100% as the original scale. Your
viewpoint height, depth perception and displayed weapon size adjust together.
Height Offset lets you fine-tune your viewpoint afterward.

Both sliders apply immediately, remember your choices and offer reset buttons.

Lean into a wall without seeing through it

Your view now gradually fades to black as your head approaches or enters solid
scenery, then returns when you move clear. Head tracking continues, and the
HUD/menu remains visible so you can recover or change your settings.
Water and non-solid areas that activate game events do not trigger the fade.

Bundled mutators now install and activate correctly

Bundled mutators are now built, installed and registered so they appear in the
New Game mutator list and can join the game when selected. Old Weapons
is included as the first bundled mutator and was used to verify the full path
from installation to activation. Games started with Use Mutators disabled
continue to use the normal game rules.

Reduce the cost of character shadows

The Realtime Ultra Res pawn-shadow setting has been removed because it
caused frame drops and frame-time spikes. Opening Video preferences changes an
existing Ultra selection to Realtime High Res, retaining detailed character
shadows without the unstable Ultra setting.

Installation

Run UnrealRevived-Setup-0.7.0.exe and select your original Unreal Gold
installation. Setup creates a separate Unreal Revived installation; you still
need the original game files.

Use Unreal Revived for desktop play or Unreal Revived VR for a headset.
Each mode remembers its own display settings. VR requires a configured OpenXR
runtime and a connected headset.

For an existing installation, use the supported uninstall/reinstall flow.
Choose to retain your saves; the uninstaller also backs up your settings.

Unreal Revived 0.6.1

Unreal Revived 0.6.1

Hotfix changes for 0.6.1

• Fixed Return to Na Pali so its expansion HUD, status graphics, messages,
  menus, scoreboard and crosshair use the stable spatial VR panel.

Highlights from 0.6.0

• Stereo rendering and head tracking, with gaze-aligned gamepad walking and
  strafing and smooth right-stick turning.
• Complete HUD and menus on one stable spatial panel. Opening or closing menus
  keeps its position and size; distance and scale can be adjusted independently.
• Recenter from VR Preferences, right-stick click or F10. Recenter aligns the
  view and keeps the shared UI panel upright; shortcuts can be changed in
  Bindings.
• Corrected VR UI color presentation and a proportionally drawn transparent
  Unreal Revived logo in the flyby.
• Native branded desktop and VR executables select their own modes and settings
  profiles. Preferences Restart preserves the selected executable and mode.
• Separate normal and VR shortcut choices, with VR defaulting to a 1280x1024
  window and later display changes persisting independently.
• VR-only UI textures are allocated only when needed by VR rendering.

Installation

Run UnrealRevived-Setup-0.6.1.exe and select your original Unreal Gold
installation. Setup creates a separate Unreal Revived installation. Launch
Unreal Revived for desktop play or Unreal Revived VR with a configured
OpenXR runtime and connected headset. Original game assets are not included.

Built from commit b784506.
