Here they lie

3 Upvotes

Does anyone know if there’s a PCVR port or mod for Here They Lie? I’ve been dying to play this game again. It’s genuinely one of the best psychological horror games I’ve ever experienced, and I’d love to revisit it on PCVR with modern hardware. I know it was a PSVR exclusive, but I’m hoping someone out there has figured something put cause I’m dumb af

Question/Support Oculus Rift S on SteamVR?

6 Upvotes

Is it possible to use the Oculus rift s with steamvr as the openxr runtime and not have to use the in-between of meta's software? I find going through the extra layer clunky and not ideal. It also means steamvr doesnt work properly in every game which sucks.

I currently have it set as my default runtime, but it is not detecting my headset. Any help would be appreciated, and I will update my post with additional info or an answer if found as needed. Thanks!

Quest 2 + Steam Link: SteamVR shows “Unknown Source” and VR games won’t work

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to play PCVR games on my Meta Quest 2 using Steam Link, but I’m having trouble getting it to work.

My PC specs:

  • GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600GT
  • Headset: Meta Quest 2
  • Software: Steam and SteamVR on Windows

The problem:

My Quest 2 connects to my PC through Steam Link successfully. However, when I start SteamVR directly from Steam on my PC, my Quest 2 displays an “Unknown Source” warning, and I can’t get my VR games to work properly.

I can connect to my PC, but launching VR games doesn’t seem to work as expected.

What I’ve tried so far:

  • Connecting my Quest 2 to my PC using Steam Link
  • Starting SteamVR directly through Steam on my PC

I’m not sure whether this is a SteamVR configuration issue, a Steam Link problem, or a limitation of my GTX 1050 Ti.

Has anyone experienced something similar or knows how to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Question/Support While playing SteamVR, keyboards and mice randomly disconnect and immediately reconnect

6 Upvotes

Steam VR with Vive Pro on Windows 11, MSI AM4 x570 motherboard, 5800x3D.
Link device is connected to dedicated "VR" USB 3 port, but this happens even if I connect to another port.
Have used both RTX3090 and RTX5090 and both have same issue.

Randomly the keyboard and mouse devices will disconnect then immediately reconnect.

The Windows "remove device" sound plays, then immediately the "add device" sound plays, and for about half a second the devices don't respond.

Thought this was a USB problem so switched to Bluetooth devices, yet the problem still occurs in exactly the same way as it did with the USB devices.

This isn't a problem during native VR sessions but if I'm playing Flat2VR seated KVM games, obviously there is a bit of input lag.

There are no random disconnects when SteamVR isn't running.

While SteamVR is running this occurs, even if no game is playing and I have the headset off my head on the desk.

SteamVR running? KVM disconnects.

SteamVR not running? All normal.

Discussion So apparently you cannot connect to SteamVR when it's downloading workshop stuff, because it counts as "Installing SteamVR"...

Early stages of a social VR game im making

0 Upvotes

[THIS PROJECT IS UNPAID AS I LACK THE FUNDS TO PAY PEOPLE]

Ive been working on a social VR game inspired by Rec Room called “Circuit Overboard” and is being made in the unity game engine.

Been working on the game since march and made decent progress, but I’ve been doing most of it alone.

The game will be supported both on quest and steamvr

Ive been in desperate need of a team who can help me. Im only 16 and in high school so its been difficult trying to maintain the games development and school.

Here are the following skills i need:
3D Modeler
Concept Artist
Promo and in-game artist
Programmer (must know unity C#)
Physics programmer
Lighting artist
Environmental artist

Ive gotten the foundation of the game sorta done tho it’s a bit buggy.

If you are interested, i will DM you my discord and we can discuss further and i can provide further details and screenshots of the games current state.

Hope to have you on the team!

PCVR - Stuttering/Freezing computer during gaming through stream

1 Upvotes

Hi guys!

During PCVR streaming, and so far happened in VRChat and Gunman Contracts Standalone, but not Half-Life Alyx: In my headset, the picture is freezing, but not the headset, like if I move my head around, the "streamed picture" of the game is frozen and fading out a bit but I can see the background of the Steam Frame.

If I check my PC directly outside the headset, I notice that my PC is also freezing/stuttering heavily, like even my mouse freezes/stutters.

If I go into my headset and stop the stream with the headset icon bottom right, my PC unfreeze and everything goes back to normal. If I go back into streaming with my headset, it seems to have fix the problem but sometimes not, and I have to turn off the stream once again, and go back in again for it to be fixed.

So clearly the PCVR streaming is causing my PC to stutter/freeze.

  • Tried to disable multi-link and only use dongle, same problem
  • My dongle is connected to the rear of my PC, USB 3.2 (red one) and dongle is really close to me (I can see it when I'm in my headset)
  • Yes my PC is up to date, drivers, Windows Update, and good hardware too
  • Already tried to uninstall the whole SteamVR on my PC and reinstall
  • I'm on the Stable version of Steam Frame (I believe it was also doing it when I was on the Beta branch)
  • My Steam client on PC is on beta branch, SteamVR is on beta too

Somebody already experienced this?

New Aurora loading screen

Post image
225 Upvotes

So I usually play by Virtual Desktop, and that doesnt always show the Steam Loading screen, but I tried a couple of recently purchased VR games today, and I noticed that the Steam VR loading screen has changed to what Im guessing is the Aurora environment that was mentioned for the Steam Frame.

Is it that Steam Frame users had this at first and now everyone has it, or has it been out for a while and I just didn't notice?

My right controller isn't tracking

1 Upvotes

SteamVR just says the controller isn't detected and acts like I only have my left controller turned on yet it still receives inputs from my right controller such as opening menus.

I've tried everything I can think of resetting the controller, unbinding and rebinding all and changing the hmd usb port to no avail.

any help would be appreciated
