I'm not sure if I'm allowed to talk about this yet, but the devs can just remove this post if they don't want any talks about it.
Anyway, since the alpha is out, I might as well answer your REASONABLE questions. Some stuff I won't talk about as the devs might crucify me. Now for Q/A
Q: can you do the multiplayer mod in SPVR?
A: Yes, if you own regular SP, you can. Though SPVR may get its own version of the mod when it's out
Q: will switching between SP and SPVR be easy?
A: it's instantaneous! You can click "enable VR" anywhere except the designer, and you will enter VR instantly.
Q: does SPVR work with oculus airlink?
A: yes.
Q: will you stream any-
A: no
Q: what's new in 1.12?
A: see below. Mainly just VR compatability things
Q: what's the price?
A: $9.99 USD
Q: any signs of a release date?
A: I don't know.
Q: can you test my build in VR?
A: yes, but higher quality builds will be prioritized
That's all I have for now, if I find your question fits up here, I'll put it up here
Smallish hint, the price is stated here
Just some quick notes to be aware of:
@MarcoOranges it's been teased for a while now
wow! simpleplanes will get a VR update?
thank you devs, i was really hoping for a VR version of SP for a long time
@WNP78 just tried to access it, it just tossed an error. I'll send you the link on an old repurposed post of mine
@3 you should be able to access the steam forum once you're in the alpha. Or just select the playtest in your steam library, and click the "discussions" tab.
@MintLynx I know, requirements will be added if I start getting a LOT.
Also, yea, it's pretty easy. Click play, pause game, click "enable VR", test controls, click "exit VR", click exit.
Maybe with permission from Andrew, I'll make a quick video of swapping between non VR and VR inside a stock craft.
The potential hassle of testing VR controls was a concern of mine for people who would play this in VR. If switching to VR is this easy though then that’ll definitely help those who have headsets! I hope you know the floodgates you’re opening by offering to test builds though, lol.
@WNP78 the steam post I was linked to in the acceptance email doesn't work, also, where can I put bug reports and suggestions?
@3 Got it.
@OtakuNekoToT I never really looked if there were new parts yet, so I dont know. But I won't say anything about it except already known stuff
You just said that you can't say what's the new things will come into Simple Plane in 1.12 update. So, do you mean that in 1.12 update, new parts or some changes will be added instead of just adding the VR mod?
