The fan...
First, kudos to the Vive team for doing such a killer job on this. I am grateful to be able to enjoy your vision, and I think this kind of worldbuilding is really the magic of VR.

So. The fan. When I first started up Driftwood, I swear I saw the fan in the pod spinning. That simple detail added so much immersion because the world felt alive right from the start. Now, it has gone still, and I can't figure out if it was something I triggered, a time of day thing, or what.

Was I hallucinating? How can I make the fan spin again?

Came here to post this same question. My fan stopped as well, but I can still hear the ongoing audio effect as if the fan is still rotating. I hope this gets restored, as it definitely did add to the immersion and helped bring the space alive.

Are you running a saved version? I’ve noticed animated stuff like the fan, windmill, birds, etc sometimes break on saved versions.

Yep that's the exact reason, just figured that out this morning! Suggestions?

There is an actor dynamic object animation bug that appears only with saved versions of your environment. That is all I can figure out at this time.

okay I can confirm that selecting Original and not 'Saved' fixes it, but that means we won't be able to customize and save the environment anymore. well...I like it anyways and it will remain as my default Home.

We're looking into this along with a few other bugs that have popped up. Thanks for the feedback all of you :)

Will the bug fix regarding the fan be applied to existing saves or will we need to start with the original environment and begin again? After having my save corrupted and losing all my work, I'm hesitant to even begin the rebuilding process. I do know that I want the fan and turbines to eventually be operational in my saved environment, so if this bug fix for some reason can't be applied to existing saves, I thought it might be best to hold off on the rebuild process until some things get sorted out. Just trying to figure out when/how best to return to Driftwood and try again.
