Title: Windows Mixed Reality Support
Post by: teeds on March 05, 2018, 12:26:20 PM
Will GPBikes, MXBikes or any of your titles work with Microsofts WMR as it stands Piboso or would changes need to be made to add support? Thinking of getting one but wasn't sure if SteamVR support alone was enough to work with your titles, not all VR games on Steam seem to work with WMR.

edit - anyone tried WMR with one of Pibs titles?

Gren uses it at Holovis and it worked going through steam.

I am looking at the new ASUS MR VR so will let you know. Will ask him in a bit as he is calling me in about 30mins lol

Hi all,

The windows mixed reality works great with GP Bikes.

Download the Windows Mixed Reality for steam plugin :

http://store.steampowered.com/app/719950/Windows_Mixed_Reality_for_SteamVR/

WMR headsets are not great for everything, as the controllers track from the headset..  so the controllers always need to be in front of the headset. (not great for throwing grenades for instance, not a problem in GP Bikes  ;)  )

I used the Samsung Odyssey, which has the same display resolution as the Vive Pro..     GP Bikes looked great.
The only thing i didn't bother getting to work was the screen mirroring.. useful if you want your mate see you take that left at 160mph   ;)

Please fire over any questions :)

Hello,
I'm new in the forum, and also have a Samung Odyssey.
I mostly play car sim ( iRacing , Assetto Corsa ).
You talk about steam VR, does it mean GPBikes is on steam?

It's not on Steam, yet. But the game works with SteamVR, as does the Odyssey.

In the end import costs for the Odyssey were to high for me, so I went with the Vive Pro instead.
