Update v1.1 - Standalone beta

VRLF - Virtual Reality Lightgun Framework · published · build 26403366

Hello all!

This update includes lots of new features related to the standalone version of VRLF which is currently in beta. It currently only supports the Quest 3 officially, but hopefully in the future it will support Steam Frame and Pico headsets. As part of this, many fundamental changes have been made to VRLF to facilitate the performance needs of the standalone headset and these have been applied to the PCVR version too. Hopefully, this means that users with less powerful systems can still enjoy VRLF at high framerates. If you'd like to test the standalone version, the apk file is in your VRLF install folder for sideloading. Go to vrlf.net for more info on the standalone version.

Version 1.1

This update moves the default branch from 1.0.93 to 1.1, and adds the first standalone version of VRLF, in beta.

Standalone (beta)

  • The new standalone version runs on Meta Quest 3, alongside a PC running VRLF as a server. Find the APK in the Standalone folder of your VRLF install.
  • Passthrough mode. Selectable in Environments on supported headsets.
  • Hand tracking: turn it on in General, then put the matching controller down and use your hand for menus, panel buttons, slides and VR reloads. Close your hand to grab, and swipe a finger to scroll the menus. Hand tracking only works for your off-hand and guns still need to be picked with a controller so there are enough buttons to play games.

Graphics and performance

  • New 3D Resolution row in Quality: 50 to 150%. Reduces the internal rendering resolution. The capture screen and menus are not affacted
  • New Model Detail row in Quality: Low to Full. Lower levels simplify guns and cabinets for slower systems.

Fixes

  • Fixed VRLF freezing when you quit or restarted while content was loading.
  • Dolphin's Wii Remote and Nunchuk motion filter works again.
  • Window capture now follows a game whose launcher closes and opens a new window.
  • The basic arcade room's stray and floating parts have been cleaned up.
  • VRLF now shows as VRLF in Task Manager.

Profiles and Workshop

  • PCSX2x6 now uses the virtual lightgun instead of XInput pads, aim works past the picture's edge for games that require off-screen aim in specific directions. The picture is cropped to 4:3.
  • Workshop uploads now include a package's README, RESKIN, CREDITS and LICENSE files.
