7DVR Version 3.2!

OKAY! This one has definitely taken longer than hoped!
Been steadily fixing things and adding new features, but kept running into bugs that were big enough not to feel comfortable releasing. But now, with 7D 2.0 just around the corner, it seems like there’s a great new version of 7DVR ready to serve as the last big build for 7D 1.4 and all its amazing mods and overhauls!

And with that, Kaaliba and Nephilim are incredibly proud to present 7DVR 3.2!!!!

Here’s what’s new:

  • SUPERSHARDS!!! What the heck is a SuperShard? Glad you asked! SuperShards is a complete re-write of the 7DVR UI. The new version has a ton of benefits, including extreme customization of all VR UI pieces. Want to put your compass on your hand? No problem! Want your main UI bigger or smaller? You can do this! Want your health/stamina to be always visible in front of you? You do you! Each piece of UI (a “Supershard”) is fully customizable. Here are the main improvements:
    • Extremely customizable, even allowing for different “sets” of UI pieces for different overhaul mods.
    • Out-of-the-box compatibility with most overhauls and UI mods, and it’s possible for users to add compatibility for new overhauls that haven’t been seen!
    • No “cut off” UI pieces or funky overlaps anymore. See every bit of UI perfectly.
    • Small (very small) performance compared with the classic UI!
    • Less random UI issues in VR. For example, you can now paint objects through the UI (was impossible before).
    • Automatically adjusts for left-handed mode!
    • UI is no longer affected by post-processing (no more “blinding” UI pieces)
  • Escape from Tarkov Compatibility! Full support is now available for the EFT set of mods. This includes the gun packs (Extraction Pack) as well as the full overhaul mod. Experience 100s of insanely precise and beautiful guns, ammo types, and weapon attachments. This is a must-see for anyone with a passion for guns.
  • Rebirth Compatibility! This is one of the most incredible new overhaul mods to come out in some time. The overhaul features a new game mode, custom quests, animal and demon companions, custom weapons/skill trees, and oh so much more.
  • IZY Compatibility! IZY is one of the most well-known (and most requested) gun packs for 7D. Similar to Escape from Tarkov, the pack includes hundreds of fantastic, incredibly detailed guns and ammo. IZY can be installed with other mods, and it is included by default in Rebirth.
  • Afterlife Compatibility! Welp. Shortly after Afterlife compatibility was advertised in a previous release, Afterlife was updated and broke things for 7DVR. It works again! For those unfamiliar, Afterlife is also one of the newest, most-incredible new overhaul mods that totally transforms the game!
  • Dynamic Object Quality 4.0! A ton of new “Advanced” options have been added (in 7DVR Options->Debug) to give precise control over how Dynamic Object Quality works. This is great for folks who want like to ensure, for example, NO pop-ins at the cost of some performance. Similarly, users can customize this to ensure better performance by slightly decreasing visual quality.
  • Major Under-the-Hood Changes: 7DVR uses BepInEx, a tool that allows us to gain control the moment the game is launched. Unfortunately, BepInEx became incompatible with the latest versions of 7D when certain mods are used. To fix this, a custom version of BepInEx was written that is now fully compatible! This means the control needed to make VR magic happen is retained, more mods are supported than ever, and things are now somewhat future-proofed! Woooo!!!
  • Fixed compatibility with SMX Menu mod. 7D 1.0 broke compatibility with this, making it difficult to use the menus and play overhauls like War3zuk. All fixed!
  • Fixed death UI bug: The eternal void of death has been defeated! A way was finally found to put the respawn UI right in front of you after death. Phew!
  • Fixed gun laser attachment: It turns out that 7D 1.4 completely broke the code for how the laser attachment on guns works. This is fixed now!
  • Added Vehicle Turn Speed Option: This highly requested feature allows you to reduce turn speed. Great for better precision and especially for users with controller drift.
  • Updated 7DVR Options: Cleaned up some old options and added new ones for SuperShards and more! There is even an option now to enable all the crazy Video options that don’t work well with VR (for those who like to live dangerously).
  • Updated SteamVR and Unity Packages: Fixed a few minor problems resulting from old packages.
  • Cleaned up logging: It turns out that recent versions of 7D have been causing the code to spam tons of info into the TFP log file. This is all fixed, and hopefully brings a bit of performance improvement.
  • Lots of other little bug fixes and minor improvements!
  • Small but important note: Customization of UI using SuperShards is a bit advanced at the moment. Full instructions will be published in the 7DVR user guide. The goal is to make it MUCH easier to customize things in future versions of 7DVR.
  • GIANT THANKS to all of the Testers. 7DVR would be much, much buggier without their incredible work! And ESPECIALLY GIANT THANKS to @DragonzHeartz, @jugonsolitario, and @wealthypixelcollector for painstakingly calibrating the absolutely insane number of weapons for EFT, IZY, and Rebirth!!! Thanks to them, there are HUNDREDS of new weapons all calibrated and ready to play!

That’s all for now! Once 2.0 is available, a new version of 7DVR will be released for it as quickly as possible.
As always this mod is 100% free! But…if feeling super-duper-mega-awesome and having the means, support would be greatly appreciated! If you like 7DVR and want to become a Hero Survivor, please consider donating!!!

Tons of to you all! NOW GET BACK TO BONKING!!!!

Scopes are next on the agenda after we get this updated with the 7D2D 2.0 release. IZY weapon pack actually has 2 guns with scopes that work… we need to find out HOW and then copy whatever those guns do to ALL the scopes!

Correction, the M60E6 and G28 with working scopes might be EFT gun pack, not IZY. either way they are almost perfect… now we need to see how and apply!

This looks awesome, how the hell did you get it to run so smoothly and what PC specs and VR equipment you used to test it (mostly because I’m worried about my PC exploding lol)

Unity helps a lot and we added a system to monitor FPS and try to increase/decrease draw distance as needed to keep things running smooth in headset. pre 1.0 the game was CPU limited so even a 1070 was enough (low graphics of course). After 1.0 the graphics are more intense so I would say 2070 minimum. I played on a 2070Super and I9 for quite a while until I upgraded!
