Anything I can do to fix or am I doing it wrong

Riley

Hey I downloaded it all then as soon as it download it said “failed - Forbidden”

Riley

@jakob I've found if you add the game to the steam library you can then add the -vr ending

Ultra

Ultra

youre gonna have to use winrar or 7zip otherwise you cant unpack them

I see this comment is old but in case you haven't tried yet, I used my own Oculus Quest 2 and it worked fine.

Can i run the game on the Oculus Quest 2?

Hi!! New pledge here!! I've downloaded and extracted but it says it can't run on my pc. Does it have something to do with the password when I extract it?

Did it Work with a HP Reverb 2 / Mixed Reality?

Dwen

Allow us to grab things things please! (What i had in mind was, double click the mouse. Left or right to grab. Release the left or right to let go.)

Cannot start in vr after the update. Adding -vr as instructed returns an error the line is invalid and will not save it

BadBunny

NVM problem solved. Bit annoying but if anyone ever has this issue just open an incognito window and try again

BadBunny

It downloads partially, then stops. And when I try restarting it says "No permission" and starts all over again T_T

Ollie (Hard) seemed to have some kind of Model Error where one point of a mesh recedes. About 8 vector points were receded. It was located at his belly area. This was seen while on Garage Map. Just wanted to let you know.

I literally stopped supporting because I can't get it to work on the quest 2 anymore, it used to work fine in previous builds, no clue what the problem is now.

Grumpy Wolf

I am sure you get this question quite a bit...but I have an Oculus Quest 2. Is there any way to play this on there or is it only for the Go and Rift?

Brian Umsteadt

Currently putting together some art and such for an update post :) thank you all for your patience!

Werethrope

For those having issues with password, please hold until the next alpha update to come out - I'm currently putting it together after having a busy week :) thank you kindly for your patience and support! ♥️

Werethrope

Unfortunately it seems it is only launching in Desktop mode for the Rift S as well! Thank you for the awesome work though, this is a super fantastic project! ♥

If I change the -vr to the boofVr-Touch.exe at the end in the file path, as you have described, an error message appears --- The dimension 'C: ....' specified in the 'Destination' field is invalid. Make sure the path_ and filename information is correct.

Hosenmann

Oh that's very odd - I'll double check and update it in a moment, thank you for letting me know!

Werethrope

yeah it isnt working for me either

Elliot

The password is not correct

- Tiny hotfix update, added hotfix to include pre-requisites! This should prevent builds from not being able to run due to missing C++ version on anyone's PC. Thank you Sascha for reporting this issue, glad that this will help prevent this in the future! :)

Werethrope

Hey there! At the moment there isn't, unfortunately, but I'll note this down to implement into the settings menu, thank you for bringing this up! :)

Werethrope

hey is it possible to limit the fps to just 60? I'm getting 300+ fps which is a bit overkill and I don't know how to limit it to the amount I want

Hey everyone! Some quick additions to the post: - Added mirror download link - Added note about making a new shortcut for VR mode if it doesn't work for you (no H Drive error) - Added note on possible fixes if the game does not run due to C++ error Hopefully this helps, please let me know if there's any other issues :) We'll look into how to make changing between VR mode and Desktop mode easier and cleaner in the future. For now, this will have to do as we keep developing the project. Cheers! <3

There's a button below it where you can just download it, not buy it. You don't need to buy it at all. You can click X and close the purchase window, it's just a thing it does normally but you can ignore completely. Also, could you please respond in a thread instead of making new comments each time? There's a small speech bubble icon you can click below my message to reply instead!

Werethrope

It’s asking me to buy winRAR

goldenf

It's what you use to compress and uncompress files packed together into one file, making it easier to share many files in just one. They're free software you can just download if you just Google search for them! I'd suggest looking up more about it just so you can get a better grasp of it :)

Werethrope

What’s winrar and 7zip?

goldenf

WinRar / 7zip should ask you for a password when you try to extract the game files into your folder, there you can put the password in :)

Werethrope

where do i type the password into?

goldenf

Must have been a mapping issue on local PC! Did you make sure "-vr" is added at the back of the target in its properties? You can try deleting the shortcut for the VR mode, and then right click on the desktop mode > create shortcut > then similar to previous post, right click on the new shortcut > Properties > Shortcut tab > In "Target:", add -vr at the end of that line :)

Werethrope

Unfortunatly still doesn't work in VR with Quest 2. When you try to launch the VR Mode shortcut it justs says H:\projects\boofvr\windowsnoeditor\boofvr_touch.exe The specified path does not exist. Check the path, and then try again. Funny thing is I don't have an H drive. Was this a possible mapping when you were working on the game on your pc? I even tried remapping it, which worked, but no matter what I do it only runs in desktop mode.

Grumpy Wolf

I don't know about everyone else, but I greatly appretiate the honesty. I think we can all understand that a big project like this takes time, and even if you aren't giving us set dates the fact that you are still updating us and showing us screen shots still means a lot. I'm really looking forward to the future on this :D

Grumpy Wolf

Awesome~ can't wait to try it out after work
