VR Support [Work in progress]

[76561198250485544]

The VR support of the game is still under development therefore we suggest you to play the game in the traditional way first.



Latest build improvements:
- Unity engine updated to version 5.4.2
- Performance improvements
- Support for Oculus PC SDK 1.9
- Graphics setting improved
- Other improvements and fixes


To access the VR build of the game:

• Plug in your headset correctly
  
• Click on the VR button that appears on the lower right of the menus

UPDATE October 28th: We have finally merged the default and vrtest branches. You don't need to switch branches anymore. Plug in your headset click on the VR button and you are ready to go. Unity engine updated from 5.3.6 to 5.4.2 providing performances improvements

UPDATE July 28th: a new control system has been added for VR, is available in the settings menu when VR is on.

UPDATE June 23rd: We have had uploaded a new build today with improvements such as an alternative control system but we have encountered problems with the new Oculus runtime 1.5 that has been released shortly after so we are rolling back to the previous one.
Please make sure to have Oculus Home, the GPU drivers and the game in the "vrtest" branch updated.


UPDATE May 6th: We are unfortunately having issues with the latest Unity update and Oculus runtime so we reverted to two builds ago.
Let us know if you are unable to launch the VR

UPDATE April 11st: We are currently testing the new build with Unity 5.3.4 and Oculus SDK 1.3 . The build is not final and many improvements are still being developed.
Please send us feedback here or on support(at)thetownoflight.com

Hi, any idea's on the specs needed to run this in VR? I assume it will need more than a 560.

We suggest to follow the Oculus requirements for VR at the moment. We can't say anything yet because the tech is still in development.

We would like to do so but we have no access to the devkits at the moment.

It's a bug due to the beta nature of the vr runtimes, if your headset is connected correctly to your PC, try to relaunch the game, it should work.

u need runtime 8 and once game starts the actual game not menu push ctrl+L it will work it works excellent

We know, the VR version is still a work in progress, we will work on it. This is why we suggest to play the normal version first.
