Yeah free cam is in 14.0
My friend, just wanna let you know, I respect you big time. As a fellow creator, I do know the hard work that comes into piecing things one at a time, and the satisfaction it brings after said stuff are done and all, and so, one GIANT KUDOS to you!

Keep up the passion and inspiration! Nevermind all them haters, you're doing fantastic!

Does this have VR support? There's a NoVR.exe so I thought the other exe file supports VR, but when i launch it through oculus link it's just black on the headset...

Game does not support VR; that file is there in case you have a VR as UnrealEngine does this weird shit that makes the game run in VR even if it's not supported. Drop the file onto the exe when you're gonna run it to avoid the VR issues. Quick search of the thread will tell you the answer, btw. I can't remember the amount of times I've seen this pop up.

Stop building your game with VR checkbox checked in Unreal. This game doesn't have any VR content, it only causes issues for people with VR headsets, like game crashing when VR headset goes to sleep, etc.
This issue has been present since version 1 and has been reported. This is just silly.

Other devs made this mistake(not even amatures like this team coughSinkingCitycough), but they usually fix it at some point.
1.5 years later, this is still an issue. Dev, if it's really as simple as unchecking a checkbox, PLEASE DO IT

Oh I see, that makes sense, thank you. I was trying to look it up the thread but i don't know a quick way to do it so i was just going though each page 1 by 1 and there's 312 pages, so i gave up after a few.

Search bar at the top right of the page, make sure you have it toggled to "This Thread", and it will search within whatever thread you're looking at. Of course, doesn't always mean you'll find a solution to your questions but it's a nice thing to use first before doing a brute force method or asking.

Its not that simple, If I completly disable VR the game crashes at launch no matter what I do. I have tried a new fix for this update which I hope works because I am as sick of this as you are
as a last resort, instead of the bare .exe which defaults to VR, maybe consider shipping a .bat file that calls the .exe (buried in some subfolder) with the -novr parameter, or even an .exe so that it looks like the real thing.

That's basically the idea behind the shortcut but it seems that it doesn't work like I thought it did. I'll try out the .bat file when I release 14.0. Thanks for the suggestion

this hasn't been a problem for me in the last few releases. i have steam installed and a valve index plugged in at all times. the game launches as a regular desktop app for me.
