Setup notes
RaftVR is a bespoke VR mod by DrBibop (known for the Risk of Rain 2 VR mod). It adds VR to the first-person ocean survival game Raft with motion controls for aiming the hook, paddling, and attacking, plus comfort settings (snap turn and a wave-calm motion sickness mode).
Setup requires the RaftModding mod loader and the Extra Settings API mod: install both, then let RaftVR patch the game on first launch. The mod asks you to pick the Oculus or SteamVR runtime once, changeable later by editing VRRUNTIME.txt in the game folder. Any SteamVR headset works, and Quest headsets work when connected to a PC.
Multiplayer is fully client-side, so flatscreen friends play without the mod; a separate flatscreen edition lets them see VR players' head and arm movement. Community reports note the RaftModding loader does not mix with Unity Mod Manager or BepInEx, so mods built on those (e.g. Creature Tweaks on Nexus) cannot run alongside RaftVR.
