You --MUST-- Mod!!! - Skyrim VR Review on the HTC Vive 

Yes I Did... It was stunning haha

Tim Beals Literally watching this and asked myself if anyone else thought this. xD

so true.

Tim Beals would be funny as hell and TONS better hahhahahhaahhaa

not something we can expect from a non native vr game would be awesome tho :)

@@OpenMind3000 Du bist auch echt überall xD

I don't know if they will. If there is someone with talent that wants to fix the UI and has a VR setup, they will. However, I suspect that having a VR setup and being a Skyrim modder who could handle the task is less likely of a combination just because of the cost.

The real question is if SKSE will be updated for Skyrim VR. If it does get updated I have no doubt someone will attempt to fix the UI, and if no one does i'll do it myself :p

Unfortunately a lot of big name modders aren't fully vested in Skyrim Special Edition (64 bit version), which is what SkyVR runs on. So, things like SkyUI have basically been jerry rigged to work for those that play SSE but any full support is probably not going to happen any time in the next few years. Especially for the limited people that have the VR version. I also think most modders are on hiatus until the next Elder Scrolls or Bethesda RPG comes out.

installed sksevr. installed skyui (unofficial). Hello my old friend :)

Yes, games like Skyrim is what I've been expecting when buying Vive

I feel I am really missing out on something playing vanilla

Loony you are missing out in the biggest way possible. Modded skyrim VR can fix all the ugly textures and meshes, all the bugs, add loads of content, improve immersion by orders of magnitude. Not even kidding. If you have the balls for it, Enhanced Lighting and FX + Dynamic Immersive Seriously Dark Dungeons ALONE make skyrim VR a borderline horror experience. Add Vivid weathers, and wandering skyrim becomes truly epic. There's almost no limit to how much you can change, improve and customise the experience of playing skyrim in VR with mods.

Guilhermo Pereira totally agree. I find the UI fine on the rift

Iv'e heard other people say the same, it's really just a problem with the way the controls were mapped, they shouldn't have been mapped to scroll with the trackpad, tapping the trackpad or doing what PSVR does where you hold the trigger and make a downward or upward motion, would have been better.

Really depends if you have a computer that can run Vive. The main differences are Vive has slightly better resolution and you have room scale support so you can walk around. It's also heavier, and takes longer to set up. Personally, I wouldn't recommend getting VR just for one game. Maybe have a look at what's available for both systems, then get whichever one has the better game catalogue.

Ah, Spell Fighter... I wish something came of it.

Maybe, I've never tried Windows MR but the Vive tracking is very good (pretty much impeccable when set up optimally). If you plan on using room scale a lot then maybe you can justify the investment.

Thanks I am going to a gaming event so i will have a chance to test the htc vive so all will be determined than :D

That is definitely the best way to do it.

never mind, I found this: www.reddit.com/r/Vive/comments/8a0c1z/skyrim_vr_walkthrough_for_mod_manager_2/

I have a gtx 970 and the game runs fine for me and the only graphical mod I have is realistic waters 2, so your pc should be fine if you don't go crazy. If you want some good graphics without too much performance just install gamwich's mods on the nexus.

Martin Drkoš I hope so, because these games seem perfect for VR

Verstarkt Entertainment which INI file is this in? I didn't see these settings in my Skyrim.ini

Add this to your SkyrimVR.ini [VRWand] fMaxPulsesForFullSwipe=2 fMinPulsesForFullSwipe=2

SkyUI I think needs script extender which doesn't work with VR yet. Though I imagine it will be brought over eventually.

Yup, this ^ - though I love both headsets, touch controllers are the best for VR and they work well in Skyrim :)

All they needed to do was add the laser pointer control that most VR games use to interact with menu systems, then the Vive would have been fine.

Yep menus with oculus are fine plus used to the menus after all these years.

Skyrim thankfully has both options, but many people get motion sickness from sliding movement, so most designers make their game with teleportation only, ignoring the people who can't stand teleportation as a mechanic.

they could have made u navigate the menu with trackpad clicks instead of touch. The touchpad is technically 4 different buttons like a dpad.

Yakub I was thinking that too hopefully someone does mod the UI and a full body mod too

Ui is a vive problem lol

Here is a video I have found ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Iw_lmNawuh0.html ; I haven't tried it yet. (I think Vortex would be a better mod manager to use than Nexus Mod Manager btw)

Yeah sure you make some great points, but you do realize this game was released on 11-11-11 right?.. I mean development of this game started over 10yrs ago..lol, we're using the old UI because that's what was implemented at the time which was adequate for both *console* and pc users. i'm just sayin' cut them a lil slack, i'm sure their next elder scrolls release is going to be pushed back another couple years to allow for quality VR integration.. (which sadly will like put that release somewhere in the 2020's..lol) but eh it should be good..

Most of what you are asking for are available as mods.......

none of those are mods.

They released the game 20 times. They made enough from all those sales to correctly add the content to the game. Which they did not. They are a multibillion dollar company. There is no excuse. They wont add these features or fix them. They never had. Hell the game was UNPLAYABLE on PS3 leaving gamers without a game for 6 months. and they still released it anyways. oh and its FULL PRICE.

1. You can already do except you're talking about physically equipping it, which wouldn't even matter. Hell you would probably just accidentally equip and dropping your weapons a lot. 2. No it really shouldn't. The armor will get the way of your vision and make the experience shittier. Feet and hands or a toggle option at most. 3. There's mods for that. 4. Agreed. 5. No that's retarded because that would look like snow building up on a camera. Unless you're talking about the game playing an effect if you wave your hand around your face, in which case it would still be retarded 6. Not sure what you mean by this but skyrim's combat is already shit and wasn't designed for vr. 7. Pretty sure it already has this, and you can't exactly jump that high in real life either. 8. Yeah it should. 9. That would be interesting but ultimately be boring seeing has to how there would only be a handful of voice commands. 10. Certain issues will arrive when trying to view another person's vr character. Probably either a t pose or floating swords. Unless your level 8001 autismo then that would be super hard to code properly the way you want it. 11. Unrelenting force is a better method in my opinion. 12. Yeah the way they did that was pretty gay. Should have made you physically chop wood and mine, although you can still mine "manually" in normal skyrim and vr just by swinging a pickaxe.

I don't know but I saw it was the currently most played VR game when I was in Steam VR :)

I got a playstation vr the other day and i am planning to get this. Looks really fun. The headset doesn’t have the best resolution but vr is fairly young in home gaming and it will only get better. But this looks like the best game for a fully immersive rpg game

skyrim isn't an rpg, it's an action adventure game

It's both and more.

Until Skyrim SE gets more mod support, I'm not that interested. And I've logged just shy of 2000 hours in the original Skyrim, but I'll definitely buy it eventually.
