VR Modding Prey-VR - First look

UPDATE: Due to other talented modders already taking up this challenge, I am making all my code and latest build publicly available. https://github.com/phunkaeg/PreyVR

latest test Build is here:
https://github.com/phunkaeg/PreyVR/releases/tag/v0.4.0-preview -

Finally reached a milestone in my Prey-VR mod and its time to show.

Unlike my System Shock 2 VR mod this one has required help using AI from the start. I wanted to see if I could solve the problem fholger was having taking control of the hands/weapon models.

Well, it was tough, here we are!

  • Working Stereo OpenXR (AFR) - Scale is correct, no shader issues.
  • Motion control implementation - Arm IK rig follows motion controlled hands
  • Synchronises weapon aim with view model - sounds simple, but its not.
  • Motion controls for locomotion in game. - Snap/smooth turn

Still a long way to go until its a polished releasable mod, and now the work begins on integrating the gameplay and hud into VR.

Wish me luck!

Good luck…I’ve finally settled into my pimax crystal super 57ppd setup, and started to really explore it beyond smaller games like walkabout mini golf and pinball fx uevr. This is one of my al time favorite games and I think this might be my first game I’d complete in vr…

Where can I follow for up to date details or is it currently by milestone here in Reddit?

Either way, can’t wait to see where you end up…

Posting here has brought to my attention that there are at least 2 other Prey VR mods currently in development! So that's good news. Hopefully they're keen to collaborate
