NoPro Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Hey guys, just one question as I’m May a bit confused regarding steam VR and steam itself. Right now I’m using a rift but I may change to a HP Reverb but here’s my uncertainty. The Reverb will use Steam VR, does this mean that I have to change my “normal” DCS to the steam DCS Version in order to use this VR headset or may I use it without steam DCS and steam VR is a separate program running in the background like the oculus home software. Hope I made myself clear and you understand what I mean?! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosebud47 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 DCS Steam version is not needed to run the Reverb. But as you wrote, Steam needs to run in the background. Also HP Reverb is a windows mixed reality HMD, so you need the "Windows Mixed Reality for SteamVR" App to run. The App could be downloaded for free from Steam.

So as the rift s is a WMR Headset too, will there be also another app within the oculus software? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
