ChildEater , in VR Experiences With Oculus Headsets On Linux?

To my knowledge you can really only use oculus hardware with windows. Sorry chief.

I appreciate you and will bookmark this for future reference. It is always a hassle getting this working.

For the Quest you can try ALVR as an AirLink alternative.

Keep in mind VR is a mess on Linux-supported headsets, I’m using the OG Vive and I wouldn’t recommend ditching Windows for VR.

GeraltvonNVIDIA OP ,

Understandable. But i like privacy and the whole thought behind FOSS. I am a Software developers myself and like to dig into code and See for myself how it works and play with it.

Since the release of Oculus Dev Kit 1 (de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oculus_Rift) 10 years passed. So i thought that could be a long enough time for an OpenSource-Community to drop a Kind-of-alternative to properitary Oculus Software.

And it seems i was thinking right. Thanks for mentioning ALVR! I searched for an alternative here alternativeto.net/software/oculus-experiences/ . But ALVR didnt pop up.

There are some attempts at OpenHMD and Monado. Unfortunately Oculus headsets like Rift S have their tracking handled by software, so the community have to write code for room tracking as well as controller tracking. As opposed to Quest and I think Vive/Index, where tracking is handled by hardware itself.

Do we have a good shader option for openmw yet?

I use ALVR on occasion for a quest 2: Tentacular, Jet Island, Gorn, Neos VR, SairentoVR run great after some tweaking. Have your rig plugged into a decent 5ghz router, I settled on 80hz refresh rate and bumped my packet size up to 8000B. <3

GeraltvonNVIDIA OP ,

Awesome News! Will look into it! Thank you!

CassiniWarden , in Morrowind modern game engine OpenMW 0.48 is readying to release

Literally just installed Morrowind and OpenMW through lutris tonight. Looks like I’ll have this update to look forward to though!

luthis OP ,

While you’re at it, add Tamriel Rebuilt! There’s a huge amount of progress made and it basically doubles the playable map with quests, npcs, etc!

CassiniWarden ,

looks great, is there any easy way to get it working in Linux with OpenMW? modding morrowind can be a bit…finicky lol

luthis OP ,

It’s really basic, I’ve had it working on linux with openmw before.

It’s not like other mods, I think it’s just selecting an extra ESM file or something.

ProcurementCat ,

Tamriel Rebuilt has an installation guide for that which is OS-agnostic.

https://www.tamriel-rebuilt.org/content/how-install-tamriel-rebuilt

It's basically just:

  • Choose which optional patches you want (Plugin compatibility patches, make factions in Tamriel rebuilt part of the factions of Morrowind etc)
  • Copy the according .esm's into your Data Files folder
  • Register the .bsa files (contain all the assets)

Modded Skyrim is one of the last reasons I hang on to my dual boot. This will help cut the cord.

Wow thanks for posting. I wasn’t aware of this. I guess I’m not the only one who thinks morrowind is the best elder scrolls game.

I just wish OMW or something similar to Android was still in development. Anyone that knows anything about this?

tebro , in issues installing nobara project

If you have an nvidia card you need to select the fallback (or something) entry in grub

tegs_terry , in Morrowind modern game engine OpenMW 0.48 is readying to release

Ugly grammar in that title.

Cryystalized , in Skyrim + SKSE (Skyrim & Skyrim Special Edition)

Just happened to scroll upon this after buying, thanks for the guide!

julianwgs , in Gaming on Linux has come a long way

What fascinates the most about desktop Linux and gaming on Linux that all of that was achieved with limited funding compared to Microsoft. Imagine what could be possible with more market share and more companies investing in the space. The current state is already great, but I believe we are just getting started.
