Serious Sam 2 VR (OpenXR) mod, development build. Unofficial and incomplete: expect rough edges.
New in this build
- Stronger, truer throws: grabbed objects now leave your hand with the controller's own measured velocity (from the VR runtime), including the flick of your wrist, so a real throwing motion sends things flying. Walking or backpedalling no longer adds to or cancels the throw strangely, and a brief tracking hiccup mid-swing no longer drops the object.
- Reflections: glass, refraction, haze and glow now show each eye its own view (the right eye used to see the left eye's image, which looked stuck to your head). Water reflections no longer fall back to a head-following image after a graphics reset.
- Co-op: the server limits rapid reconnect attempts per player.
- Server and clients must run the same SS2VR version (this build changes the game/VR-host link, so update everything together).
Install
Download the installer for your system below and run it:
- Windows:
ss2vr-installer-windows-x86_64.exe(double-click; a console window opens) - Linux (Proton):
ss2vr-installer-linux-x86_64(chmod +xit, then run it from a terminal)
It finds Serious Sam 2 through Steam, downloads the latest release, checks every file and installs it. Run it again to update (your VR settings are kept) or to uninstall. The installers are also inside the zip.
Manual install: extract SS2VR-<version>.zip and run python install.py install --game "<Serious Sam 2 folder>".
Requirements
- The current Steam build of Serious Sam 2 (the installer refuses other builds).
- An OpenXR runtime with a headset (SteamVR, Monado/WiVRn, ...) for VR. Run the game windowed, no MSAA.
- Linux: Steam launch options
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="d3d9=n,b" PRESSURE_VESSEL_IMPORT_OPENXR_1_RUNTIMES=1 %command%. - Multiplayer: everyone, and the server, needs this same version.
No game files are included. The zip contains the full source (GPL-3.0). See the README for controls and settings.
