4 years ago Hi there. About the vertical view your talking about, I also thought about this for a second, but it would be a terrible idea since this is a VR mod. You see, in VR the player uses the tracking motion feature to look around him (looking right, left, up and down. That's what makes the VR feature VIRTUAL REALITY. So this control makes sense. You use the remote to move around and positioning yourself in the environment. Not to look around with the right thumbstick like in standard first person shootings. Don't forget that this mod is made for the HTC Vive and Oculus rift.
I have just managed to start playing the MotherVR mod and it looks awesome in every way. However I really miss to be able to use the mouse to control the view. It seems to work for horizontal movement although not as well as in the 2D environment because I need to start moving forward or backward before the game starts to register the mouse movement and sometimes it will not register horizontal mouse input at all, it is intermittent. I mostly play in a half inclined position and without the vertical mouse movement it is extremely cumbersome to have to nod my head up and down instead of using the mouse. The mouse is also much faster and speed is valuable whenever the Xenomorph is nearby. Another issue I have encountered is that sometimes I am unable to crouch when pushing C on the keyboard. Another issue I have encountered recently is that annoying SteamVR circle appearing in the game. I'm looking forward to the official 1.0 version. I am running MotherVR with a PSVR headset using Trinus PSVR and I am planning to purchase the old Wii Remote and Nunchuk to emulate the Vive Controllers with Virtual Tracking using Driver4VR. I have no intention of trying the PS Move or any other optical tracking as I believe I will be contented with 3 DOF virtual tracking. Since my laptop screen is updating at 120 Hz I was also able to get the PSVR to run at 120 Hz. I paid 150 dollars for the PSVR, 20 dollars for the Wii Remote and Nunchuk, and 25 dollars for the Trinus VR and Driver4VR licenses.
