Fix for today's Elden Ring 1.05 patch (Patreon)
Content
Kudos to all Patrons who alerted me about today's official patch to the game breaking the VR conversion.
The 4.2.1 release attached below should solve all issues introduced by the update: inability to switch resolutions, black bars on the bottom and top of the view, HUD and world map wrongly becoming headlocked and/or no longer fully visible.
Let me know if it works for you!!!
For new Patrons: The latest release of the mod (currently 4.2.1, attached below) always supports all Patreon games:
- Red Dead Redemption 2 and the Mafia Trilogy (no longer supported due to a DMCA takedown request by Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc.)
- Horizon: Zero Dawn
- Cyberpunk 2077
- Elden Ring
so you should never need to hunt around the website for a specific version to download and use with your favorite title. Installation is very simple:
- make sure that the game was run normally (not in VR) at least once, so that it could create your user profile;
- unzip the archive into the game's .exe folder, being careful to preserve the folder structure (i.e., don't move anything around manually, don't flatten the folders, and don't put the mod into its own subfolder: RealConfig.bat must end up at the same level as the game main executable);
- then run RealConfig, which will automatically select graphics settings known to work correctly in VR and finish installing/configuring the mod for you.
If you're here because of RDR2 and want to start with that (wonderful) game, I have a specific README for it that you can also find attached below.
The original posts for the various games come with LOTS more information on how to get the most from your VR experience, and on how to troubleshoot your installation in case anything goes wrong. Each post is tagged with the games and categories it discusses, so it should be easy enough to find information. However, I know that it all can be a bit overwhelming when you first land here, so if you're feeling lost do not hesitate to ask, either in the public comments or by sending me a DM!!
