ES2 and ATS do not use the Oculus controllers. They should be seeing your XBox controllers just fine.

Oculus software → link mode → launch ETS Oculus branch

That’s all you should need to do.

Half the “joy” of VR is still figuring out the proper order to launch crap and when to put on the headset.

Of course, once you get ETS2/ATS running in VR, it completely spoils pancake mode.

That is what I did. Cabled up and everything. I’ll try again later.

So true. Oculus/SteamVR/headset/mouse/controllers is the config.sys of the 2020s.

You may also have to do -oculus or -openvr in the launch commands. Again, haven’t played for a long while

You seem to be right.

Okay Serious Sam: The First Encounter VR is GREAT. I have to get used the movement so I can effectively dodge, but my god the gunplay felt AMAZING. Not sure if they want you to stand or sit for it, but I sat and still had a great time.

I keep getting confused with your abbreviations. I see you trying to play “Endless Space 2” and “Attack of the Show” and am like, Is that possible? Lol

Why the fuck would I waste my valuable time on Endless Space 2?

I scrolled up, maybe not far enough, and still don’t know what games you’re referring to lol. I’ll be like, “oh duh!” when you tell me.

Hahahaha fair enough.

Baby steps, you know! Besides, it was the start of my night and I didn’t want to risk ruining it.

I messed around a little with vorpx last night, managed to get Tron 2.0 working using the ready-made profile. It kinda worked, head tracking wasn’t working, but I managed to get full geometry 3D working in the lightcycles game. Which I promptly quit because holy shit, that’s a vomitron. I’m sure I’ll spend a lot more time with vorpx down the line, but for now it’s a level of faff I’m not really ready for. I’m mostly looking forward to getting it working with platformers like Ori, which apparently fly in VR.

Sigh, more expenditure! ;)

I want to say that the serious Sam games are on sale. I’m not sure they are, but I want to say it.

ATS/ETS2 just upgraded their graphics engine, which is supposed to look really good and it’s my understanding that it carries over to VR. Again, not sure, but that is my understanding.

OK is no one going to tell me what those are? LOL

The truck sim games, European and American. :)

No, I think those are Advanced TicToc Simulator, and Extremely TicToc Simulator 2. I think.

Oh, they are.

(individual games also heavily discounted)

1.40 with the new PBR lighting is pancake-only ATM, AFAIK

But I believe the intention to to make VR native when 1.40 goes off beta

I finally picked up Half Life: Alyx due to the recent sale. I’m very much looking forward to playing the 30 minutes of it this weekend I’ll be able to before I get sick.

Which they did yesterday \O/

Yes there was a brief time when you were telling me you couldn’t really afford a Quest2. One month later I’m guessing your total expenditure is rapidly approaching two Quests :)
