V2U | Vertigo 2 - Unleashed
Mod for the excellent Vertigo 2, providing more freedom to the player.
New Features
- Universal Melee
- ➡️ | Allows physical melee attacks with any weapon, or even with empty hands.
- 🛠️ | Can be toggled and tweaked in
Vertigo2Unleashed.cfg.
- Dual Wielding
- ➡️ | Allows each hand to independently equip and operate a weapon.
- ⚠️ | Requires the following actions to be bound on both controllers in the SteamVR bindings menu:
"Weapon Switch","Reload".
- ⚠️ | It is recommended to rebind
"Toggle Menu"to be a long press or chord to not interfere with left hand"Reload". - ⚠️ | It is also recommended to rebind
"Teleport"from the left joystick, as that is the most natural bind for weapon selection. - 🛈 | Obtaining a weapon makes it usable by both hands. E.g., as soon as you collect the Trident SMG, you'll be able to dual wield two Trident SMGs.
- If you prefer to not have duplicate weapons, you can set
DualWieldingAllowClonedWeaponstofalseinVertigo2Unleashed.cfg.
- If you prefer to not have duplicate weapons, you can set
- Virtual Stock
- ➡️ | Interpolates two-handed aiming with the player's approximate shoulder position, giving more stability when aiming down sights.
- 🛠️ | Strength, shoulder position, and max distance can be tweaked in
Vertigo2Unleashed.cfgor the non-VR in-game console (F1).
- Grip-Holster Mode
- ➡️ | Automatically holsters weapons when the grip is released, and equips the last holstered weapon when the grip is held.
- 🛈 | Any hand interaction (e.g. grabbing a prop, using the wrist storage) takes priority over equipping the last holstered weapon.
- 🛈 | This is the recommended setting when dual wielding, as it simplifies the reloading process for two weapons a lot.
- 🛈 | Helps to quickly interact with the world (e.g. collect an item, climb a ladder) without having to open the weapon selection menu.
- 🛠️ | Can be toggled in
Vertigo2Unleashed.cfg.
- Difficulty Tweaks
- ➡️ | Allows fine-tuning of damage and movement speed.
- 🛈 | Both inflicted and taken damage can be tuned, allowing a more deadly and intense (i.e. no bullet sponges) yet fair experience.
- 🛈 | Player walking and swimming speed can also be tuned.
- 🛠️ | All values can be tweaked in
Vertigo2Unleashed.cfgor the non-VR in-game console (F1).
- Miscellaneous
- ➡️ | Holding the revolver by its foregrip now uses two-handed aiming (including virtual stock support).
