VR controls?

[James]

So I've been playing subnautica for quite some time and really enjoy it.
My latest attempt was in VR and it looks awesome.

However, I can control everything except turning around with my Oculus rift controllers.
How to face another direction?

I got the game ages ago and I want to play it again now that I got a VR headset. I am fine with playing using a mouse and keyboard, but I am locked out of mouse turning because my head movements are interpreted as mouse turning instead. This means I can't turn more than 180 degrees in the game or else I will be facing away from my desk. Do you have any solutions for that, or is your answer going to be "should have thought of that before you re-installed the game?"

No need to be rude, "idiot". Try the VR enhancements mod, which is essential for the VR experience in this game. Nobody else has reported this problem so I'm sure you have a solution somewhere.

I only see one rude and unhelpful person here and it ain't adhoc42.
I bet if you had simply stayed away from this thread and question it would've been more useful for everyone.

Submersed VR mod added touch controller support with hands motions. Works fine for me with and with the other kits as well.

Thank you this was what I was searching for on the internet.

I will apologize for being rude but I can't agree I was unhelpful. Several people were claiming VR controllers did not work at all which is inaccurate. Additionally bumping this thread, which google search was ranking highly, caused someone else to post a mod, so it is definitely and demonstrably not the case that leaving the thread alone would be better. This thread had recent activity before I showed so I was not necroing the thread.

Nonetheless I will appologize for being rude and abrasive. I will only apologize for things I actually do but this half of your complaint at least is correct.

Ok, yes I can control it with mouse and keyboard but that makes it quite useless in VR for Oculus Rift, indeed.

It plays fine on the rift. Ive beaten the whole game in VR. Just use your kbm. Not that difficult.

You can read the store page to find out about specifications of the game after you buy. Even if you already own the game, the store page is still visible. And, things such as bla bla bla etc you get the idea

Get a room. I came here to see if anyone had any suggested keymappings. I have a valve index and a gamepad and will be configuring my controllers and will be editing the keymap into my post. People find these webpages via google and this one comes up due to recent discussion around changes to the store page. You can add each other as friends if you want private conversation. Other people don't deserve to be subjected to your drama. Please take that as friendly constructive criticism and do not get defensive. Let's work together to make this a support page for people that want to play the game with VR and are more comfortable using VR controllers instead of a gamepad. Whether the company supports it or not is irrelevant to whether the community (that's us) support it, and we have a working, responsive interface recognizing all buttons and motion controls that just needs a good configuration in order for us to support this kind of play.

EDIT :
This is what I did with my valve index
Move forward : joystick 16 (right thumb)
Move backward : joystick 17 (left thumb)
Move left : left analog stick button press-in (same thing as moving analog stick in any direction from left vr remote)
Move right : right analog stick button press-in (see move left)
Look : lol the headset does this
Jump : right button (a on right remote)
PDA : a (b on right remote)
Deconstruct : Joystick Button 14 (left trigger)
Exit / Holster : Y (b on left remote)
Left hand / Use : X (a on left remote)
Right hand : Joystick Button 15 (right trigger)

I am ok not having sprint, cycle, etc. You may want to arrange it so left hand is left trigger and may want sprint to be joystick button 14.

Those keymaps are actually useful since I have a valve index too, thx. You're right, there shouldn't be drama here, but I feel like there's a better solution than a forum thread that gets buried all the time. Someone should make a pinned thread.

Idk why I called them an idiot it was pretty strange btw, but that was 2 years ago.

not useless at all imo. mouse and keyboard for best input. and headset for best output. it plays really well and maximizes immersion.

you're about to have an amazing experience :)

also check out vrperfkit and the subnautica perf mod.

steam discussions are 50% toxic cesspits at best, it's practically tradition. as a rule many to most of the people that make it a cesspit don't realize they're doing so. The social lack of awareness paradox.

You don't have a controller? Like ... Xbox?

If you want to play with a mouse and keyboard, you don't need a vr headset.
All you need is a cardboard box for your phone.

edit:
What I have written is not malicious and hostile.
Subnaitica, and Hellblade are two vr games wth no "vr hands" and you can play them propably with phone + cardboard + software.

Not sure if serious

[spamvictim]

I have meta quest 3 and the controllers don't work either

grzegorz77 eredeti hozzászólása:

Yes, I'm serious.
Full Vr is all about bringing your hands into the game.
The screen with gyroscope is really no problem, almost every(?) phone has a gyroscope.

The whole problem with vr is the precise reproduction of hand movements.
Here's the price difference between cheap slam tracking kits (quest 1, 2 ,3 and similar) and lantern based kits.
If you like challenges and puzzles, you can use phone + cardboard in games like subnaitica.

edit
From what I remember, you need a webcam and a small flashlight too.

You are just applying subjective and arbitrary barriers and definitions. Subnautica with a HMD and a controller is extremely immersive in its own right. And there are VR games in third person that work really well.
No idea why you're babbling about cardboard VR and phones etc. Irrelevent.
But ya, there is a new mod called SubmersedVR which adds motion controllers and hands, good for the scanner and building your base. You can use your hand as the "cursor" instead of your face.

Why would they? It specifically says on the store page you need K+M or a xbox controller.

What do you mean, what do you want from me.
Did I write a lie somewhere?
Subnaitica doesn't need a full vr headset, all you need is a phone, a "google cardboard", xbox pad, flashlight, webcam, and software.
It's not a game that takes full advantage of vr technologies and doesn't need a full vr headset.

Nonsense, every word of it. You're not lying, sadly I think you believe what you write. Or you're trolling.

If it makes you feel any better he deleted all his posts in this thread. Probably when he realized how ludicrous and unrealistic his suggestion to use google cardboard was.

That was not the reason.

I'm just sick of these conversations, I've decided to limit my speech in few popular games (steam vr, subnaitica, boneworks). For some reason, in popular games, there's an over-representation of people I don't want to hang out with. I'm tired of wasting my time on people who can't appreciate it.

In subnaitica I have over 400 hours (vr only). I've played almost every popular vr game. I have a great knowledge of VR, I know how works and what every VR headset priced up to $2,000 (and more, counting without accessories) represents, new & old. Technical details, how it works, pros and cons, because each of them has advantages and disadvantages.

In these games, when I share my knowledge, only a few people appreciate it. On the other hand, in these games I often get answers like yours. Trying to ridicule me and accusing me.

A lot of people could use my answer, put their phone in the box, and explore the amazing world of vr, the two of you don't believe it, and instead of typing one sentence into the search engine, you're mocking me.

I took my toys, I have no desire to see you again.
Now I'm unsubscribing from the topic, sit in your swamp, in each other's company.

edit:
You're right, I should tell you my reasons.
There are probably people here who read and don't write, I owe them a few words.
That's why I wrote this reply.

You can believe whatever you want but trying to play Subnautica on Google cardboard is silly, unrealistic, and highly doubtful it could work. So suggesting it as a legitimate way to play is just foolish. If you were someone I actually knew I would offer $100 if they could actually get Subnautica to work on google cardboard just to watch that person quickly back down.

Good. You have ZERO clue what you're talking about.
