Fatal Error fix plus VR goodness

Here's another Emily Wants to Play update.

First thing, I fixed the Fatal Error problem that some were having. The fix will cause you to lose your current video settings. When you start the new update, you will need to choose your quality and then go into settings and choose your resolution etc... But at least you can play the game again without any changes. This also means that people that are using the August 8th version should be able to use this new version. If for some reason you still can't open the game, you can go to BETAS, opt in to the EmilyAugust8 Beta and it will load the game before the VR stuff.

VR Changes
Removed the clock sequence, so you won't be teleported to the clock in between levels. You need to make sure you are listening for the clock. :)

Adjusted the default settings to double frame rate in most cases. You can still adjust your quality at anytime by pressing 6, 7, 8, or 9. 6 is the lowest quality and 9 is the highest.

Fixed the camera high up in the sky issue and several height problems. You can still press C or push in the Right Stick on your controller to manually adjust height yourself.

Oculus Rift users will now default to one screen preview output instead of stereo. You can scroll through the different modes by pressing Shift + M.

Teleporting is cleaned up and smoother on HTC Vive. In most cases aim at the floor. If you point at a wall it will not allow you to teleport. You must point at the floor in front of yourself or the wall.

Changed the instruction note in the beginning and the first picture on the wall for HTC Vive users.

Known issue:
When you pause the game in VR, bold text is supposed to appear showing you how to quit, but it has disappeared and I haven't figured out why yet. I didn't want to delay this update any longer.

In HTC Vive, pause the game with the top button above the thumb pad. Then to quit press both thumb pads and triggers at the same time.

On Oculus Rift, pause the game with P, ESC or the right button on the face of the controller. Then you can press both left and right triggers at the same time, or both left and right mouse buttons at the same time to quit to menu.

Thanks again for everything, I will keep trying to improve the VR version of the game for you and fix any bugs you find in the regular version. You are great!
