Squad VR (Yes really)

Now it’s even more real. UEVR Creators Patreon, without him, this wouldn’t be possible What is UEVR? How are you playing Squad in VR? I’m confused! Help! It’s an external plugin that “Injects“ VR into your game, it should work with the majority of unreal engine 4 and 5 games. @Gamingwithmatteo311 explains it really nicely here: Massive shoutout to Squiders for making the amazing Zeus Mod that I used in this video. Destruction Mod used in this video (destroyable walls, windows, doors) by Martinez UEVR Injector #gid=0 START HERE What you Need: 1) A VR headset that can connect to Steam VR. This is basically every headset, if you have something like me, a Quest2 or Quest3, install the steamlink app(FREE) from the Meta store to connect to your PC wirelessly or with a cable. DO NOT USE VIRTUAL DESKTOP(Paid app) I tried it and it was causing me major issues, wait until it’s fixed. 2) The game Squad. 3) A beefy PC, the game has to be rendered TWICE (one for each eye) and played at a higher resolution. I went from around 160FPS on desktop to 45-55FPS in VR in most situations. 4) Patience. Tutorial: Step 1: Install UEVR (follow this guide, explains it better than i could, Don’t launch Squad yet) (Download links in that video’s description) Step 2: Launch Squad BUT make sure you’re running it without EAC (anti-cheat) by launching it through its folder NOT via Steam’s launcher, It should be somewhere like: X:/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Squad/SquadGame/Binaries/Win64/ DO NOT TRY TO JOIN A SERVER (very likely EAC might think you are using hacks and BAN your account, you’ve been warned) Step 3: From Squad’s main menu, go to training - launch jensens range. Step 4. Select whatever kit and spawn. Step 5. Alt-Tab out of the game and Launch Steam VR. (we havent launched UEVR yet) Step 6: Launch that you installed from Step 1. Step 7: In the UEVRInjector window, select Squad from the Inject processes list. Choose the OpenVR setting (Open XR gave me issues) and click Inject. After a few seconds go back to your VR headset and voila. You are in VR. (If you are confused please see Step 1s video) Step 8. Now, you will find that you can’t walk or do much at all. UEVR translates your VR controllers into an Xbox gamepad. So you need to fool Squad into thinking you are using one. On your desktop go to Options then Controls and you’re gonna need to assign movement to your left joystick, fire to your right trigger, ADS left trigger, reload to A and so on. It’s gonna take some tinkering until you get everything working. At this point you should be able to run around, shoot, reload using your motion controllers but most likely than not, your camera is gonna be off and you aren’t able to look through the guns sights. Tuning the camera: On your desktop, open the UEVR screen that launched after you pressed inject, the main thing that I changed is where the camera is located so I could use the scope. These are VR_CameraFowardOffset, VR_CameraRightOffset, VR_CameraUpOffset, you’re gonna have to mess with it until the sights look perfect when you ADS ingame. I recommend you do very minor changes using the desktop app by typing the numbers (not using the slider) because its a lot easier to make small adjustments. I don’t know if mine will work for you but they are camera_forward_offset0= camera_right_offset0= camera_up_offset0= decoupled_pitch0=true decoupled_pitch_ui_adjust0=true And you’re good to go! I recommend a mod like Zeus(link above) to fight against bots and build your own missions. There are UEVR profiles that you can import but only for other games. When one becomes available for Squad I will link it here and that should save people a ton of time. I’m not sharing mine because its extremely jank and broken. Issues: 1 Everytime I die I have to use the mouse on my desktop to select a spawn location. 2 When I’m using vehicles and it changes direction, I’m still facing the same way and I have to physically rotate my body to match the vehicles direction. Its not very good and the main reason why I didnt show many vehicles ahah 3 I’m also unable to do small adjustments to the vehicles gun sights without using a mouse (the game thinks you are using WASD to swing the gun). 4 I can’t use the ingame UI for resupplying and had to use the mouse to be able to interact with it. 5 Many scopes don’t work and I don’t know why. (ie ACOG) 6 A lot of the VFX will only display on 1 eye, you wont see this on the recording though! If anyone figures these out let me know and I’ll update the description. Enjoy your motion sickness!
