Works now on SteamVR 2.1.9
I tried it again and now it works. I loaded in correctly. I could finish the tutorial, paint using all the tools, save and load. I did not try to the web browser.
Everything works fine except the in-game web browser.
In game web browser not working, everything else works.
openXR mode crashes after playing 1 soundeffect, displaying 1 frame and not tracking my position
can't get this to run and not crash in any configuration
You can't start the game from SteamVR, you have to launch from Steam and select the option from the dialog "Launch Vermillion with system default OpenXR runtime", otherwise it won't work. Also, you HAVE to have the steamvr overlay working (press the system button once to check) when launching the game.
Videos don't play. Tried installing mfplat (mf-install, mf-installcab) but then it prevented the game from starting, and I had to remove the proton prefix for it to play. Also tried running with Proton-GE and ther was no difference.
It's quite fragile with the conditions to start. Besides only starting with the "default OpenXR runtime" option, sometimes I would have to restart SteamVR for it to work.
The tutorial videos can be found on youtube, so it's not a big issue for them not to play in-game.
Doesn't come up on headset
Ran with various runners, old and new, vanilla and GE.
First I encountered error:
Unable to run the command specified. The file or folder /home/user/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/SteamVR/bin/vrwebhelper/linux64/"steam://open/bigpicture/games?backstack_token=system.dashboard.quicklaunch" does not exist.
Fixed this by right clicking Vermillion->Properties->General and unticked "Use Desktop Game Theatre while SteamVR is active"
After this I tried to launch and got a black screen in the HMD. Got around this by going to SteamVR settings->Developer->(paraphrashing from memory) "Set SteamVR as OpenXR runner"
Now the game audio is coming through to the HMD, and the game comes up on the desktop monitor, but the top half of the rendered screen is the room you start in, and the bottom half is just more skybox. No video appears on the HMD, just the steamvr loading dome.
I'll keep poking around, but the issue seems to be tied to this being an OpenXR game and not being seen as a VR game. I interpret the first error I encountered as meaning SteamVR doesn't recognize this as a VR game (hence using Desktop Game Theater, which is meant for non-vr games).
