Mega-update coming soon!

Status as of March 15: Adding to the list below, I came up with an idea for a novel user interaction mode that will allow you to read all the information in the HUD comfortably, even when it's headlocked (like during scans, remote hacks, looting, etc.), and no matter how small the center focus area on your headset is. I find it very intuitive and easy to get the hang of; it doesn't break the immersion in any way, and it completely changed my enjoyment of the more tactical aspects of Cyberpunk 2077. It's already working, and at this point it would be absurd not to include it in this mega-update, so please be patient one more day as I fine-tune its parameters and check its robustness in all situations. I will also record a tutorial/gameplay video showing it in action, to make it easy for you and the new Patrons to use it right away. Stay tuned []-D


This is just a placeholder post for the moment, but I wanted to give you guys a thorough heads-up: if you are playing Cyberpunk 2077 in VR, your experience is about to be transformed :-)

The upcoming release will have so many changes and improvements that at times it will feel like a different game. Just to be clear, no motion controls (you know what I think about that matter!) but basically everything else you've been asking for will be there:

Phew, that was a long post already! New release coming up in a day or two!!!

Hi Connor, the download link has been moved to the pinned "Start here" post (https://www.patreon.com/posts/68859691)

LukeRoss

where do we download the update?

Connor Pannell

Since this post was more about HUD, I'll post my question here: Is there any way to remove red marker from upper left side of HUD and the human body icon from lower right? Disabling everything from game options does not remove them so I guess modding is required?

Zmo Zv

Sure, just edit the RealVR.ini file with Notepad and find the [INPUT] section: in the line KeyOverlay=19,0,0,0 change 19 to the virtual key code for the key you want to use. Virtual key codes are here: https://cherrytree.at/misc/vk.htm

LukeRoss

That shouldn't be the case with my mods (barring a bug in the driver) because I always disable V-Sync in the config files

LukeRoss

You kinda have to have one preset for day and one for night or darker areas.

Brandon(Post Maester)

My experience is that I can make things just as clear with reshade and DLSS as without DLSS pretty much. At least up close, distant visuals have issues either way. You can then increase resolution which is the best visual enhancer overall. The biggest problem for me is the different lighting scenarios in this game. Makes it hard to make just a simple reshade preset to be happy with. There are tools in reshade to determine when to apply shaders and when not to under certain conditions but I have not used them yet.

Brandon(Post Maester)

Tick tock my eyes are stuck watching the clock ๐Ÿ˜‚

WIG

Smaa via reshade really helps with aliasing

WIG

seems for now, you either deal with the ghosting and try to minimize it with reshade or remove taa and deal with more aliasing and try to minimize that with reshade.

Brandon(Post Maester)

Great news - is there an approx ETA for the mega-update yet?

Alistair

also i have a 3060ti 9700k ang 16 gb i set it to low and still get ghosting, is there a way to fix it please

jeffrey stewart

my mirror shakes alot is there a way to stop it

jeffrey stewart

Hey. I'm having trubble with audio not sending to quest headset via linke/airlink when using mirror audio. Switching to single Channel fixes it but then i wont get the audio for the recording on my desktop. :P

Thomas Fosseli

Luke confirmed that the screen mirror has no impact on performance in game.

WIG

BIG EXCITE

Bob Jones

Isn't it just easier to use a gamepad? I guess I am just used to growing up using one so it is way more comfortable and intuitive.

Brandon(Post Maester)

I use a headless ghost(mostly because it was cheaper than a 4k display) but I have found that I get a performance increase using it instead of my monitor. I know there is a debate about whether that is the case if you google but I can tell you that my ultra modded skyrimvr runs jittery if i use my monitor and smooth if i use the ghost. Just my experience though. They are super cheap on Amazon.

Brandon(Post Maester)

Let us know what you are doing...

Giovanni M

Luke, will there be any possibility to disable the monitor to generate more performance in Cyberpunk 2077 and RDR2? Thanks

gkardos

Ok so got to test the Virtual Desktop update more fully. Using the touch controllers to emulate a gamepad works properly but there are a few things to note. 1. In the VD input tab tick the box that says emulate gamepad. 2. Select the press right thimbsttick option to use the D pad. That is you press the right thumbs tick and then use the left joystick as the D pad. 3. Press the right thumbs tick down and click the menu button on the left controller to get to the in game inventory map, notebook etc.

Split Enz

Cool! Being able to comfortably read the entire hud at all times would be a big improvement. Look forward to checking it out!

william mumford

I'm really curious to see what you invented to improve readability in quick hacks ...

Cercata

I enjoy your work a lot. Wonder if you have any plans to make a Witcher3-VR mod. Could be somewhat similar in the way the engine works, if I am not mistaken.

illusionaire

Maybe need a third person view can be good, if you can add the head, maybe you can adding a button in vr menu for create the head when you want to go around the city in third person view! โœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‘

Alessandro D'Amico

๐Ÿ˜ thx!!! ๐Ÿคฉ

Alessandro D'Amico

Tried the latest Virtual Desktop beta update with the mod last night and it appears to work well. I even used the touch controllers (sorry Luke) as a gamepad. Few mapping issues so that's a work in progress. This looks like a good alternative to airlink.

Split Enz

Sounds great! Greatly appreciate your work. Any chance of binding the mod hud with another key than the pause key, for all of us without a pause key. I cant figure out how to open the hud for the life of me. Holding both triggers never worked for me, and there seems to be no file to adjust in Horizon Zero Dawn that would do the trick.

nick beyeler

Wow Luke has been working so hard on this mod elevating it even higher than I thought possible. At this point Luke is single handedly keeping PCVR afloat, really makes me excited for the future. We must protect him at all costs.

WIG

I am waiting for new mod; will the keybind for recentering work in all the other games?

Giovanni M

Just curious...what is Q16?

william mumford

Any update on Q16? Not to belittle this update, I can't wait. So far 18 hours 100% in this mod. I've never even seen CP non-VR. :D

Deofol

Later today if I don't find any showstopping bugs!

LukeRoss

Actually I see that you already increased your pledge, that was so generous, thank you!!!

LukeRoss

Most of them will, right away. The dynamic resolution thing will need special backporting and it might not be possible for all games, because several engines don't like the game window being resized to arbitrary dimensions and/or have aspect ratio restrictions

LukeRoss

Do you get a RealVR64.log file in the .exe folder when you run the game?

LukeRoss

Don't say that Solomon! You guys are the pearls :-) If there are any swines, it's the people who go around proclaiming that VR is dead

LukeRoss

Thank you for the kind words, Aaron!!!

LukeRoss

I would certainly love to get some help with providing technical support, as it's taking away big chunks of my time every day

LukeRoss

Windows 11 is just a big no-no for VR lovers and for gamers in general. Better not to upgrade until they fix all the issues

LukeRoss

It might be system-specific, so perhaps you had better performance than me to begin with. The fps you mentioned, are they on the 8KX in SteamVR mode?

LukeRoss

AAAAHHH Cercata, what should I do with you? That reminds me, weren't you the one talking about delayed gratifications in the comments to another post just a few days ago? :-D

LukeRoss

I found a solution yesterday!!! You're gonna like it :-D

LukeRoss

Awesome stuff Luke, I've paused playing so I can carry on with the new update, any idea when you plan on releasing?

SharkySi

Having a keybind for recenter is going to be so nice! Excited for this update :D

Samir

I couldn't be happier! Can I have two Patreon accounts?

D S

Will the performance improvements for the Pimax headsets also work on the earlier mods?

william mumford

There are no instructions for how to make this work with quest 2 via link cable and zero info anywhere on the internet? I have run the .bat file and done everything instructed but it ends there and the game doesn't magically launch in VR mode or anything. How exactly do you make this work?

JackTyler

Great job, Luke!

Giovanni M

Different versions of red engine but I bet there are many similarities. Witcher3 with the new FPS mod would be so good in VR too but Luke did confirm his next project is to move GTA V over to his new framework with all the improvements that comes with it.

WIG

Nicely done Luke :). As always youโ€™re the perfectionist spreading pearls for us swines to greedilly snort up.

Solomon Ginsberg

Sounds awesome! I've just started CB2077 with the VR mod and I'm having a blast! The new fixes are gonna make it even better (I'm using a 3080ti and a Reverb G2).

FlyingWaffle

I just spent 4 hours playing in VR last night and the whole project is frankly mind blowing. This update will make it even more so. The aiming camera has been so damn near perfect at times that I'm pumped to see the issues are going to be addressed by this update

OnairO2

Also, do you plan on getting/hiring any help in the future if you keep getting more Patreons?

Brandon(Post Maester)

So, did making this mod for cyberpunk make a future mod for Witcher 3 an easier process? I think Cyberpunk probably has a pretty lengthy future in terms of DLC and mods, so I am of the opinion that it would be worth the work to eliminate the blur when playing in stereo. If this would also help with a blur free Witcher 3 mod in the future that would be even better :)

Brandon(Post Maester)

awesome!

Francisco Torres

Omg I can't wait. Been unable to try this out cause oculus link does not work with Windows 11. Keeeennnnn

Tiztrain

hey man 100 backlight,+3 color contrast -4 color brightness got my 8kx looking like a damn samsung qled TV great colors and decent blacks.

Cazanu

so wait even without needed PP on pimax can have another 30% performance boost?strange im getting 60 to 80 fps with high texture high lod,3200p small fov,seems pretty great for a 3080,but more is better for sure.

Cazanu

Can you please click on the reply button to your posts as the replies chain and other responses can get lost as others replies get stacked on top and your comment then gets moved further down. Thank you

WIG

Awesome, I can't wait! Your work is fantastic, thank you โ™ฅ๏ธ

BENNi Gaming

I just beated the game with all side jobs, all endings ... I always say I'll wait, then I play the game non stop XD

Cercata

That's very nice, can't wait! Is there a chance hacking can get some love in the future? The options are outside the human viewage :)

petrus munteanu

There is a mod for that. https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/63

Hoshi82

Question for anyone... IS there a way to tone down the "Sparkle", bight reflections? I think that's called bloom, but not sure.

WB

This is a damn impressive update! Seriously impressed by how much you listened to feature requests and fixes so quickly.

Vault15

Try the Oilify shader, it 100% gets rid of all jaggies. But makes the game look a bit like Sifu. Kind of cool actually. =)

drowhunter

I can only concur, with 35 hours in as well. I hope CDPR will add more content sooner rather than later after 1.5. However, LukeRoss' mod has really saved it. This game is a killer in VR and my only regret is not having PC and VR headset from 2 decades later to get even more out of it.

gurufabbes

My point is I think to this should be enabled by default, the TAA shimmers is hella anoying

Lisa Croxford

Aha, I've been using the FXAA shader, I'll give SMAA a try instead.

Lisa Croxford

Really love this game since trying in VR after 1.5. I hope CDPR keep on adding and improving. VR adds so much. I am 35 hrs in and cannot wait to get back in. I love to use immersive hud mod as well as remove red outline and health bars. This game with Luke's VR is making me buy a new GPU (and prob PSU)

WIG

You can disable anti aliasing in cyber engine tweaks, you can then use SMAA via reshade this fixes shimmer ๐Ÿ‘

WIG

I worked out how to disable the Forced TAA using this https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/63?tab=description Perhaps such a minor ini tweak could be rolled into a option of REAL VR? I think this can be toggled via cyber engine tweaks mod at run time The obvious down side is that without any AA the jagged pixels are so bad I think I might cut open my eyes. For some reason I could not find a way of forcing on FSAA in the Nvidia control panel, the usual option seemed to be ignored but I managed to get some good results playing around with the reshade presets. If at all possible it would be nice to get some real multi sampling/anti aliasing that is not going to produce weirds shimmers because of AER but I understand if it's not easy to do

Lisa Croxford

Hehe, here we go again... Another day, another VR headset being launched :-D

LukeRoss

With GTA V most people chose to map it to VoiceAttack commands

LukeRoss

That's awesome - any chance that re-center keyboard press can also be mapped to a controller somehow? (Using the Aero)

Ken Knutson

The game is a dream so far in VR (35 hours+ so far in a new playthrough). Can't wait to see this next update.

gurufabbes

YOU DA MAN!!!

Polly-Chan

Wow, sounds like a great update! I really look forward to testing it on my Pimax 8KX. I've been using my Quest 2 because I was getting better performance out of it at a higher resolution than I could use on my 8KX. The colors are much better on the 8KX though, since no video compression is involved, so I'd rather play on that if I could use the same resolution that I can use on the Quest 2. I've really been having a great time with the mod with nearly 70 hours in the game so far with most of that being done on side missions and activities. Sounds like this update will make it even better!

william mumford

Will you be supporting the new Lynx hmd Luke? It's releasing around April, May.

Brad Lewington

Wow thats an amzing list of improvements! Looking forward to it :)

Jonah

YES!!
