its odd how many people have problems getting the game to launch. iirc there was only one release i've really had issues with, and i'm still not sure if it was on my end or not lol. only advice i've got is the usual: make sure the game isnt extracted to a directory that uses non-standard/non-english characters in the file path, no japanese/chinese/cyrillic or accented characters, make sure windows is up to date and your graphics drivers are up to date, and maybe try and re-download and re-extract the game and see if that helps. i typically launch the game from VirtualDesktop by right clicking on the virtual desktop streamer taskbar icon and clicking launch game (pictured) but iirc it works fine just clicking the exe directly and loads steamVR to launch the game.

edit: dunno if its relevant but my system specs are: Ryzen 7 5800x, 32gb ddr4-3600 (iirc), 1tb nvme, and rtx3080 10gb and i'm running a quest 3. but was previously using a reverb g2

I do the same thing (Virtual Desktop and Click EXE). I'm not sure if it has something to do with Heat being on Steam now, but I can't escape the SteamVR Home without having to run two copies of the game. I have a Quest 2

You would think this part would either be mentioned somewhere prominent on the site itself (if this issue is really common for many games), or at least in the installation instructions.

odd, steamVR starting when you launch the games exe is normal because it required steamVR runtimes to work, even before the steam demo came out, but it should load steamvr then load the game afterwards, even on my system it takes it a bit to get going though, i'd imagine it might take longer for lower end systems. might be worth mentioning i dont use the steam home environment at all. if i get a chance tonight i'll mess around and see if i cant reproduce some of these issues by trying to launch the game different ways.

it was quite a while ago iirc, searching back through the thread i think it was sometime around version 4.8 but possibly a bit earlier than that.
so nothing has changed again?
pretty minor updates this time, i wont complain about bug fixes but there are some that have been around a long time that i'm still waiting on them to do something about.
* hand snap placement is still half busted, the floating ghost hands are almost pointless as indicators because the rotation they show for the snap points is almost always wrong, and about half the time they snap somewhere inside the other character or somewhere random with the arm locking into a straight position with the wrist bent backwards and you have to grab, release, and grab the hand again to get the arm to bend again.
*penis to orofice alignment still needs some work, and i'd love to see an improvement to the model hitboxes and collision for penetration/blowjobs, dicks clipping through the other characters model is immersion breaking and with some characters like jasper his dick clips through the bottom of his jaw when tryin to do autofellatio.

see previous posts for my other complaints lol. tangentially related but i downloaded the new modding tools and have started working on updating my passthrough mod. of course its been so long since i used unity i'm basically learning everything from scratch again, but i'll upload it once i've got something working again.

I can't understand why they added a double dildo for like 4 scenes when it's not an actual toy. Now that I read this again, I imagine it being a coding nightmare. Something to do with both ends being fuckable and there not being a base for possessing, idk
I'd think it wouldn't be too hard, might need to add some additional stuff to the code to make dildos have two functional ends, but we already have a double-ended sleeve so maybe not.

Lolwut365 had this correct, it happened a long time ago. Don't need the patcher anyway, all the downloads here are already cracked, and if you want to do it yourself I have a post here somewhere detailing my method.

worked fine for me using steam via virtualDesktop. did seem to take a little bit for steam to load after starting the game though.

unrelated but man some of these bugs/glitches have been around a long time and are pretty annoying. their hand snapping to body mechanic needs a lot of fuckin work for one thing, doesnt feel like they've changed anything about it since it was first implemented. Its about a 50/50 chance that the hand will either snap with a really unnatural wrist angle, or clip straight into the body of the other NPC in spite of the hand position indicator showing it outside the body before you place it.

other things that annoy me:
* sometimes the cum doesnt come from where its supposed to, esp with characters like renee
* what collision there is with the environment and physics objects like the wine glasses in the beach location are just shitty lol. needs better hitboxes and better physics properties so you're not getting fucking stuck on furniture and objects, that or just let us toggle collision off when not using playerbody, i dont WANT to stand on the fuckin furniture, it makes posing a pain in the ass when you're changing height every time you get slightly too close to a bed/chair/table.
* the fact that you cant fill the wine glasses with cum is deeply disapointing lol

prob could list more but thats it off the top of my head for now
What do you mean by bringing up steam through virtual desktop? Did you connect via Air Link and added the game to steam and started from there or how do you do it?

no, just just that steamVR starts automatically when you start the game. i'm using VirtualDesktop wirelessly so my process is basically:
1. make sure the virtual desktop streamer is running on my desktop
2. start VirtualDesktop on the quest, it automatically connects to my desktop
3. open the game by clicking on the taskbar icon for VirtualDesktop streamer and then launch game (see image)

4. steamVR starts automatically and loads the void or w/e you wanna call it, not steam home. then the game boots up. it sometimes takes it a minute but it eventually loads.

it works exactly the same if i start the game by directly clicking the exe, it loads steamVR environment first then the game boots, will run in 2d mode if my headset isnt connected even though steamVR starts

other potentially? relevant information:
the game is extracted to a folder in my C:/users/*username*/downloads folder
i'm running windows 10 not 11

this post here just up the page. i've actually started working on my passthrough mod again, have to fix some lighting issues but its in a mostly working state, just tints everything green if you have post processing enabled atm loll. need to adjust the passthrough settings a little more to minimize the green fringe, or switch to a different color to minimize its appearance but not too bad lol. cant say the same for the lighting in my room, just awful lol 1751514688802.png

When i launch with vr, it opens normally. But when i try to click authenticate on vr, it just gets a massive lag spike and nothing changes. Help. I cant even launch it without vr unless I uninstall steamvr.

Nevermind, i just installed the 7.5 crack from a comment before this one (pg 352 at the bottom [idk how to link this is my first comment]) and it works
You're welcome if it works for you :D
