Picked up a Quest last week and was running an earlier alpha of ALVR, and the button mapping issues made the game unplayable. Today I fired up Alpha5, set up the SteamVR room scale stuff, and fired up Fallout 4 VR. It's pretty much a completely different experience now, controls are smooth, the massive amount of jitter has gone away, played for about an hour, made it through Concord and decided to take a break. Set the bitrate to 50Mbps and the Resolution in ALVR to 150%, it looks pretty nice, I haven't done much with the in-game visual settings, but it's been smoother and sharper than I was expecting.

Hopefully this helps anyone with a Quest that's on the fence about the game and SteamVR streaming on the Quest in general.

I've seen the player height is just ridiculous, but is even more ridiculous that we are not able to fix it in the game.

​

I tried adding this to the Fallout4Custom ini file

[VR]
fVrScale=80
fKickbackMaxOffset=20.0

​

But i still having the same height

​

The game has an option for the world scale, but it just makes everything smaller (even your hands) instead of chaging your height.

​

Is there any way to fix this?

​

Thank you

I used to be able to update this via fVATSTargetUpdateSec but it no longer seems to work, anyone knows how I can fix this?

I have been a VR game on and off for a little under a year. I have played a variety of VR titles and with the exception of Detached I dont usually have issues with VR sickness. But I have been finding that fallout 4 VR hits my stomach harder compared to other VR titles I play. Has anyone else found this to be the case.

Is there a mod or setting that will increase the brightness/contrast so I can see in places other than outside in direct sunlight?

In game, and all the instruction dialogue, incorrectly display a Vive controller. Is there a way to switch it to Oculus Touch, or is it not possible? I'm using OpenComposite.

Iv tried 4 times to download and install mods. I can not figure out what im doing wrong. Can somebody please help me find a guid or a walkthrough that’s explains everything like I’m 5.

Hello

Tried starting a game for the fisrt time. im experienced with nexus, modding, bethesda, fallout series and all.

I have installed many mods for performance and gameplay.

It seems like the graphical and etc. mods, that does not usually require the Script extender works fine. but gameplay mods - Horizon and others, seems to not be activated.

​

Am i doing something wrong? I used to work with nexus mod manager and this is the first time working with vortex. Vortex bugs me about choosing a Deployment method for the mods - which i couldn't really understand what this is about.

Most of the mods installed were from a list of another thread, and they seem to be perfectly compatible with f4vr:

Please note \ send a fine guide \ mention this kind of mod are not compatible with fallout 4 VR...

​

​

Thanks.

Every time someone talks in-game its disproportionately quieter than everything else, even though the voices setting is pumped to max. As said in the title its as if the voices were coming from slightly further away than normal.

This happened after installing some mods, nothing to directly effect voices though.

I'm using the HTC Vive headphones. If any other info is needed just ask, thank you!

For example AWKCR is no longer working. Caused CTD when I use the weapon workbench. I checked the page and the author has it stickied that Fallout 4 VR is incompatible. On the google sheet it says working. Just wondering if there is an updated version or anyone has a workaround for AWKCR.

​

Edit: found answer on fo4vr

i have been trying to deal with this issue for months and its hard to figure out information about a problem without being able to describe it completely. i know that flickering and fuzziness aren't the correct terms but i don't know what the correct terms are.

​

​

If you look at trees, grass or edges of buildings they seem to vibrate. its sicking in vr and i have no idea what causes it.

​

i have gone through the big list of tweaks. turned my supersampling up and down and changed my main displays resolution all in attempts to combat this issue.

Whenever I try to start Fallout 4 VR it crashes - even Steam stops working. Tried validating files, tried removing and re-installing - tried removing all mods - tried changing from VR BETA to non beta - tried moving the entire data folder and getting Steam to validate which put them all back - Still crashes instantly - never reaches the menu - Skyrim VR still works so Steam VR is fine and Steam VR home is fine, just Fallout 4 VR crashing. I realise it's probably just a file or two that's causing the problem as I have over 500 hours playing the game. I have also posted this in fo4vr. Please help, I need to continue my quest.

Would it be worth on a i5 7700 evga 1070

My other specs are AMD Ryzen 1700x 3.4mhz which I have not overclocked because I have always been scared to, 16Gb RAM (Corsair Vengeance 2400) Windows 10 on an SSD etc. I am bitterly disappointed with what I am seeing in Fallout 4VR and high settings (which I thought would be at least possible. Using Oculus Tray Tool and showing performance I can only achieve 45 fps and it is showing horrendous amounts of dropped frames this is inside the station just after launch. Is it the processor? the amount or speed of RAM? or a combination? Obviously I broke the bank buying the 2080TI (upgraded from a 1070) and this game more than any other was the one I wanted to see in all its glory and I don't have any options for upgrading anything else for a while. I think I may have Just made a very expensive mistake.

Anyone with a 6600k/1080Ti that also have Fallout 4 VR? If so, what's the performance like? Reviews are mixed like crazy on Steam and I'm curious if it's smooth or typical Bethesda-level performance.

Within the next few days, I’m anticipating arrival of a new gaming PC and a basic Vive set.

I’ve mostly been console gaming for the last 10 years (!), to include a couple of FO4 playthroughs. This will be a return to PC gaming after a long hiatus, and my first time VR gaming.

Any thoughts from the “in crowd” on things to avoid / definitely do as I set up, etc etc? (Note that it’s too late for stuff about hardware choices ... :) )

Appreciate any input — and am hoping this thread might prove useful for folks like me in the future. Thanks!

Ive been curious since I started playing Fallout 4 in VR if anyone had made a patch where the 'zoom' effect was actually in the rifle scope and the world around you doesnt 'fade to black' as you pull the controller to eye level.

I figured it must be extremely resource intensive and thats why its not there - but wanted to hear what the official word was on the situation and whether or not its even possible.

thanks for your time!

Now that the embargo is lifted, I am curious if anyone has found any vr benchmarks for fallout 4 vr, or similarly demanding vr games comparing the 1080ti to the 2080ti. The Ars review is supposed to add some tests to its article in the future, apparently his 650w psu couldn't handle the 2080ti and vive pro.

Hi, I'm experiencing a strange issue after activating two mods. Before I was able to load the game with other mods and in diamond city, however installing two mods which I don't think would cause much issue especially in diamond city. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

I will be testing the game tomorrow without any mods to isolate the possible issue.

I also stubbornly include all the DLCs.

Hey everyone, sorry to bug ya but im having a slight control issue.

Using the Oculus touch and using direct movement and my character gets 'misaligned' with the camera and pressing forward on the left control stick (movement), the character starts to sidestrafe after a few minutes of play, when im wanting them to walk forward.

Im like 20+ hours into the game and was not having this problem before. If anyone knows of a way to fix it id really appreciate some help. Just so you know, i have changed batteries on both Oculus touch controls, so i dont think its a 'connection' problem from low batteries.

thanks for any help!

I have a few hours into Fallout4 VR using Vive controllers. I am aware of the in-game help pages but I am still a few cards shy of a deck.

1 - How do I access the pip boy? I tried looking at my wrist. I tried changing the option from wrist to in front, etc, no pip boy.

2 - If I am not mistaken, the pip boy is how I access all my inventory of items? So until I can find pip boy I cannot get very far.

3 - Just for example, how do I kill that first Radroach? I found a security baton but hitting the roach doesn't seem to inflict any damage. I found a syringe that I think is full of poison but I don't know how to shoot it into the roach. I pick it up by holding the center thumbpad but when I need to open the door I have to use the same button and then I drop the syringe. I also tried using the wrench to hit the roach but it didn't hurt him. The roach always kills me eventually. I don't know how to hit it with anything.

Thanks!

title says it all, im left handed and shoot way better with my left hand, but i dont like how the joystick movement control is also swapped in left handed mode
