Setup walkthroughs
Community research
V31.3.0 provides broad tracked-hand wand, spell, broom and scene interaction in a public package, but the exact game-file setup is involved and an acceptance note still awaits headset confirmation; playable rather than excellent.
Evidence checked: Current creator README and v31.3.0 release checked; release gives installation path, platform and named remaining acceptance item.
Known limitations
- Requires the original 2001 PC game plus a separate DX11 renderer, texture pack, OpenVR files and exact compatible game/script files.
- Installer is advanced because users must locate/select source folders and pass hash verification.
- Creator’s current acceptance notes flag a latest Hermione note-text fix that still needs headset confirmation; no make/model of tested headset is named.
