Game works perfectly! Steamvr and ALVR Does not.
Overall the game will run smothly in the versions of proton I have tried. Any issues I had with the experience where due to ALVR or Steamvr. Odd issue where the headset display with act as if tracking is bad after resetting prosition even though tracking is good however, this seems to be the case in all games so its either a ALVR problem or a Steamvr problem
ALVR mostly works out of the box once you have followed the instructions from their github. The game runs smoothly out of the box without mods. With mods the game can have some problems like constant studdering which can be solved with legacy reprojection in the steamvr video settings.
I had issues with SteamVR (via ALVR) not wanting to launch any OpenXR application (Beatsaber) I solved this by joining the SteamVR beta. WiVRn does load Beatsaber and is much more stable however there are slight studders that I found while using it and the game overall feels like more latency when using WiVRn. Use BSManager if you want to play modded as its opensource and very convienent.
DO NOT HAVE WIVRN AND STEAMVR INSTALLED AT THE SAME TIME ITS A PAIN.
Use proton GE of some sort of the backgrounds won't load properly (other wine versions might also work)
Make sure that v-sync is disabled ingame and that kwin is not using v-sync in the window. If I had v-sync on there was terrible latency issues which I likely would have also had on windows.
Banger game if you own a vr headset you must try it
The controllers where swaped left and right. There is an option in the menu to fix this but no other vr game has this problem. This might be an issue in general and not just a linux problem.
Worked better then I thought
Just shows a loading screen then crashes steam + steamvr
I was using alvr on fedora kde + nvidia gpu but nobody else here seems to have gotten it working so ):
Worked fine. Modding was kinda a pain but thats unrelated to the game.
In the intro a bright light will randomly blink, kinda like a flashbang. Did not have this on windows.
If I unfocused and then refocused the game window keyboard imputs would not work anymore. Gamepad and mouse still worked after this.
Originally thought my fps drops where because of linux then tried the game on windows and realised that my pc is just getting old ):
Alright game.
Accepting a steam invite when not in the game will cause the game to launch but get stuck in a loop unable to connect to the server. You can accept them normally if the game has already been launched.
