I was wondering how the big VR creators are recording Steam VR games without stretching the picture, no blending of both eye views and also centered screen.
I don't find any video or tutorial that can show me how they do it.
I mean if you look at Naysy, A Wolf in VR and MerpTV it looks nothing like that how I tried it.
Every method I tried is either a stretched screen, not centered or you see a blend mask of the two eyes.
Is there any OBS Plugin other then OpenVr Capture to get that result or what am I doing wrong?
And if it's important I use the Bigscreen Beyond 2.
Screenshot from Brian Lindenhof YT video, Climbey dev, (link) you can see a sneak peak of Aurora, the environment is similar to those that were included in SteamVR. From previous datamines we know there will be personalization settings like color and star brightness, speed, etc.
I’m not affiliated, this is just something I always wanted to do going back to the Vive. Has anyone tried it? Does it work correctly and not mess up your steamVR install/settings? How is it for beat saber?
I bought virtual desktop which atleast allowed me to open vr games on steam. Now when I play any games I get lag spikes that go up to 1000 ms and more. I usually just sit on my chair keeping an eye on the ping while I do stuff on my phone until it’s down below 200. I’ve heard a lot about Ethernet but I’m not sure if that’s the solution. If it helps I have black coloured ports on my gaming laptop. I suppose I should also include my specs.
(11th gen intel(R) core(TM) i5-11300H @ 3.10GHz)
(16 GB DDR4)
(Nvidia geforce rtx 3050 Ti laptop gpu)
If there’s anything more I need to dig up for anyone to help me feel free to let me know 🙏
Hey y'all, a few weeks ago, some mods and members of the Steam Frame Discord and I got together and decided that there have been far too many repetitive questions about Frame, and that it just isn't easy to get up-to-date information about Frame. So we made this: the Steam Frame TL;DR Board!
It is still a work in progress but we are committed to maintaining it up till and past launch, so please feel free to send feedback, comments, and concerns either below or on the board. I hope this helps all y'all (whether you're newbies to Frame or just aren't interested in digging through the internet for specifics) get the information you're looking for in an easily digestible way.
Happy Schizoposting!

Edit: Thank you all so much for the outpour of support! This project is very community focused and a labor of love by all those involved so we really do appreciate every single one of you.
To celebrate our first day of going public, and to make it easier for you all to share when that one newie asks about the mobile app button for the millionth time, I've attached a shortened link under the original post and in the board itself for use as a copypasta. Our board is meant to be public so please, by all means, send it to anyone and everyone you'd like!
Hey everyone!
We’ve just released the biggest Early Access update so far for Irreversible, our PC VR game. This one adds a full new chapter, a completely new location, new enemies, anomalies, weapons, story content, and a lot of improvements across the existing game.
The new chapter takes you into an area that’s meant to feel different from everything that came before: more unsettling, stranger, and a bit more “out of this world.” As you explore it, you’ll find traces of a group that was here before you. Their story unfolds through audio logs scattered throughout the location.
We also added short interlude episodes between in-game days. The goal was to make the pacing feel more natural, instead of jumping straight from one major event to the next.
The update introduces a new enemy type: Phantoms. They have strong hearing and vision, and patrol limited areas. If you move carefully, you can avoid them, but once they start hunting you, things get much worse. The camera-detector can also help you spot them while moving through their territory.
The new location is filled with dangerous anomalies:
Bubble - a translucent anomaly that violently expels anything that enters its field.
Geyser - clusters of anomalous vents that release boiling water and steam when approached. They can also be safely triggered from a distance using the detector.
Ball Lightning - a spherical mass of electrical energy that travels along a fixed route.
We also added a new weapon: a single-shot shotgun. At close range, one blast can stop almost anything, but ammunition is scarce. As the story progresses, upgrades for the shotgun become available, including one that turns it from a standard break-action shotgun into a semi-automatic platform while still keeping it comfortable to use one-handed.
On top of the new chapter, we revisited every existing location, improved visuals, replaced the water, added ziplines instead of some old teleport transitions, improved climbing and virtual body movement, added a head-mounted flashlight, Detector zoom, new loot spots, and did a lot of optimization work.
It’s a big update for us, and it’s out now. We’d love to hear what people think.
I've never had a VR set in my life, and I wanted to get one to play Half-life Alyx and FNAF help wanted.
I've read some headsets reviews, and couldn't decide between quest 3, quest 2, and hp reverb g2 (or another one I am not aware of). I don't think i'll play a ton of VR games, so is the investment in a quest 3 worth it, or is the quest 2 enough ? I'll be buying them second-hand, I found the hp reverb at 200€, quest 3 at 250€ and quest2 at 150€. Could someone give me some insight ?
Thanks :)
I need help. I’ve dreamed of playing *Blade & Sorcery* (PC VR) since I was a kid, and I finally bought it—but when I launch it, this happens. Here are my specs and setup: Quest 3S; Steam Link and Air Link lag equally; RTX 2050 (4 GB); i5-11400H; 16 GB RAM; PC connected via Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz). Everything works fine on the Quest itself; only PCVR lags.
i am playing fnaf help wanted. but i am getting no noise. i have my steam streaming audio on and running. why am i still getting no noise. its only in steam vr. im using a quest 3s.
Hi!
I have a very long list of VR games I’m planing on buying now on the summer sale.
Is it likely that all VR games on Steam will work on the frame?
Is it possible that all VR games that are on Steam will be sold as new versions for the frame and therefore the ones we buy now will not work and will have to be bought again?
Is it a big of a risk buying now?
What do you all think and what is everybody else doing?
The other day I scored an oculus rift cv1 at a thrift store for $10 no controllers but I don’t need those for elite dangerous and euro truck sim2 my issue is that when in ets2 I am experiencing severe stuttering. I have an RTX 2070 super three fan oc edition and Ryzen five 4500 6 core processor. It looks fine on the monitor screen but I put the headset on and suddenly it’s stuttering like it has visual turrets syndrome I’ve gone and locked my fps set era with high priority I’ve gone into Nvidia control panel and all that I have the launch option set as -oculus -nointro in steam I’m at a loss for what the issue is I’ve tried lowering in game settings and yes it looks better but that just boosts my fps the stuttering is the same as before is my headset cooked or is it a software issue Ed looks fine when in space but I enter a station and it’s stuttering crazy no it’s not just low fps from their signature bad optimization. What I want is a permanent fix or at least something I only have to do if my pc restarts. I am unable to get a vid of what it looks like since as I said it looks fine on the monitor and I dont want to fiddle with OBS rn.
Also if anyone knows where I can a pleather perforated facial interface in 2026 that isn’t out of stock that would be awesome
Not only do I have the space for it, BUT I can't even select a drive for it to install to.
I have been a vr guy since the vive, and been rocking an index since release. I have since had 2 kids in recent years, and admittedly have not had time for vr like i used to. I have been dusting my headset off a bit lately in anticipation of the steamframe, and my 4 year old daughter wanted to see what was happening in the headset.
I put on the blu for her, and she was blown away. I only let her do it for about 10 min, but she keeps talking about how amazing it was.
She is still too young for any proper vr gaming, but experiences like that seem right up her ally for a quick vr adventure. Are there any other options out there for a little kid to just stand there and look around and be in awe? She has been dino obsessed for over 2 years, and if there is something like the blu but with dinosaurs, please share. It would really make her day.
Please share some suggestions I could look at during this sale. (even if they are not on sale)
Hey guys! Giving these away, just comment below why you want them :) I'll message the keys tomorrow!
EDIT: All sent! Have fun everyone!
i bought blade and sorcery for steam because i was unable to buy it straight for my meta quest 3, and the quality is very bad when i play with steam link, is there any solution?
anyone else have this problem??? fix???
Recently in the past week or so my steamvr has not been my friend as it’s not letting my full VR set up connect properly which my full set up it HTC vive headset, two vive controllers, two base stations and three 3.0 vive trackers (yes I know I love me my vive gear lmao 🤣)
usually this is not a problem the last time I had this happen to me was when my gpu and windows were not on the current update and I did update my gpu and windows to its current update but it didn’t work
the worst part is earlier today I tried to fix my issue with a solution I found on the internet and it worked and I was super happy I then turned everything off as I needed to charge two of my trackers and a few hours later when I wanted to use them steamvr didn’t want to pair with one of my trackers even tho all my devices were lit green
So I’m kinda annoyed with this situation and if this helps at all I have to use a usb c splitter for my dongles as my pc only has one usb c slot and I had to buy a adapter for it to plug into a usb 2.0 slot
I’m really hoping that someone on this subreddit has a solution that fixes my issue as I need to sort this out within 24 hours as I have a VRChat podcast the day after tomorrow and I spent too much money on these trackers to end up not using them
Any and all help are welcome because I’m severely out of ideas at this point
Hey yall I wanted if someone could actually help me to try write or just tell me a way to use wmr vr headset on steamOS cuz I don't want to switch to windows
