Setup walkthroughs
Community research
A public package delivers stereoscopic head-tracked VR and a first-person preview, but the preview is early and the game remains controlled by keyboard/mouse or gamepad. Weapon handling, reloads and some later-game scenes are not complete.
Evidence checked: Creator README, v0.0.3 release/checksum, supported executable version, controls and current limitations reviewed; no open issues returned.
Known limitations
- First-person view is explicitly a preview; walls, cover and animations have limits.
- No tracked motion-controller aiming, 6DoF weapon handling or physical reloads.
- Only the exact supported Steam EXE build is established; Windows Store build is not.
- DLSS/DLAA must be turned off; performance settings may need adjustment.
