GoldenEye VR v0.2.0: voice chat, and online play for everyone 🎙️
Bring your own game. This APK contains no GoldenEye game data. You need a ROM of the USA cartridge you own. Installing over any earlier version keeps your ROM and settings.
Online play now has the two things it was missing: public games anyone can join (from v0.1.19) and voice chat. That's worth a version number.
New
- Voice chat in multiplayer. (#23)
- Allow microphone access when you host or join, and talk. In the lobby everyone hears each other at full volume.
- In a match, voices fade with distance and pan toward whoever is talking, so you can hear roughly where they are. Walls don't block voices.
- Mute with the checkbox in the lobby, the Microphone row on the watch's Game Options page, or by holding left X + Y for half a second in play. Your choice is remembered.
- Denied the microphone? You still hear the others.
- Public internet games (since v0.1.19): host a public game and it appears in everyone's PUBLIC INTERNET GAMES list, or host a private one and share its join code. No IP addresses, no router setup: headsets connect directly when they can and through a Cloudflare relay when they can't.
Install
- From v0.1.13 or newer: the launcher offers this update. Press Update beside Cheats....
- From v0.1.12 or older: install
GoldenEye-VR-v0.2.0.apkover your current version with SideQuest. It's signed with the same key, so there's nothing to uninstall. See the 5-step guide in the README. - Everyone in a game needs v0.2.0. Older versions don't see v0.2.0 games and can't join them.
Known issues
- Multiplayer is still experimental. If the host quits, the match doesn't end cleanly for the others; the end of a match isn't shared between headsets; other players' hands don't move. Please report how it goes, with the Build line, each player's network (home Wi-Fi, phone hotspot...) and what each player heard and saw.
- Holding the watch laser, the left arm changes size (#60).
- On Frigate, the speedboat's left windshield pane is missing (#18).
- Bullet holes can show a striped pattern from some positions (#29).
- On Frigate and Surface 2 the water pattern can shimmer as you move your head (#30).
- On Surface, a few patches of ground may not take bullet impacts (#32).
- On Cradle, Trevelyan was seen floating in the air before the final showdown (#50).
- Only the USA (NTSC-U) ROM is supported (#34).
Found a bug? Open an issue with:
- the Build line from the launcher (this release:
