SRVR (Slime Rancher VR)

SRVR is a modification that brings full Virtual Reality support to Slime Rancher, allowing you to explore the vibrant world of the Far, Far Range in an immersive VR experience.

Features

• Full VR integration with SteamVR support
• Custom VR hand models and interactions
• Realistic VR controls for all game mechanics
• Seamless integration with the base game
• Support for VR motion controls and tracking
• Custom VR death handling system
• Optimized performance for VR

Prerequisites

• Slime Rancher (base game)
• SteamVR
• A compatible VR headset (any SteamVR-supported headset)
• Windows 10 or later

Installation

1. Ensure Slime Rancher is installed and updated to the latest version.
2. Install SRML.
3. Install SteamVR if you haven't already.
4. Download the latest release of SRVR from the releases page or via nexusmods.
5. Copy the DLL file to your SRML mods directory.
6. Launch the game without SteamVR. If you have the VR Playground DLC installed, the game will prompt you about its uninstallation. It will also ask whether you want to optimize the base game for VR (you do not need to do this). A console program will then run to patch the game—let it complete before exiting.
   Warning the optimize base game can cause anti-virus to false flag installer
7. Relaunch the game with SteamVR enabled.

Usage

1. Start SteamVR.
2. Launch Slime Rancher.
3. The game will automatically detect your VR headset and initialize VR mode.
4. Use your VR controllers to interact with the game world:
   • Move using smooth turn or snap turn VR locomotion.
   • Use your vacpack and hands to interact with slimes and objects.
   • Access your inventory and vacpack naturally in VR.
   • Grab slimes/food and throw them.

To launch game without vr mod, use -novr argument when launching the game
