VR mod for Life Is Strange: Before The Storm

dawnvr's Issues

Vive Wand and WMR controller bindings are untested [LEAVE ANY ISSUES RELATING TO THEM HERE]

Error Upon Launch [LIS REMASTERED]

it keeps saying "Initalization Error" even though i followed the tutorial on how to fix this issue

Sometimes when swapping scenes (only collectors mode afaik) the game will never get past the loading screen.

Some indoor scenes swap between roomscale working fine and being broken after cutscenes

Held items are visible on Chloe's mesh

They are stored under a private variable under CharController.
The only scene I've seen this actually used in free roam is the junkyard baseball bat scene.

VR not triggered (Pimax, Index controllers)

Hi. I try several time to open game in vr, but not successful.

First was game install: Life is strange - Before the storm.
The mod is installed (unzipped, version v0.2.1 Beta Latest) directly to game folder, where game exe is.
3 new folders are added (overwriting existing):

---

• Life is Strange - Before the Storm_Data
• Mods
• Plugins

---

I made start option in steam: -vrmode OpenVR
Theater mode is unchecked.

Starting from Steam (not from shortcuts)

The game is starting on monitor only. And even there I can not start Episode 1 (double clicking, and nothing..)
I let it go like that for 15min, but nothing.

I reinstalled all twice.
What should I do?

Index controllers - hands ingame are angled to my hands

Hi TrevTV, it is minor issue, but better to say - my hands irl are not alligned with vr hands in game. Virtual hands are showing about 45deg up (I use index controllers).

Some sequences (locked into a single position, common in the dreams) like to move the player around after cutscenes

Seperate VREnabler

Please seperate DawnVREnabler into it's own repo and rename it to VREnabler, it's a universal plugin and if i had found it earlier it would've spared me a a lot of nerves; https://github.com/Bluscream/unity-vr-patcher

Also you might want to add it to the official universal mods list https://github.com/LavaGang/MelonWiki/blob/master/docs/universalmods.md

Failed to Invoke PreStart Method

I downloaded the game via Steam, used the MelonLoader Installer, then selected the game's exe, then extracted the v0.2.1 Beta release zip in the game folder.

When trying to start the game it crashes. Log:

I also tried to delete the Life is Strange - Before the Storm_Data\globalgamemanagers.bak file but it didn't change anything.

Steam properties

[DawnVR] [ERROR] [SteamVR] Initialization failure! Disabling VR modules.

I installed everything right twice and, although the game loads, it doesn't show up on my Quest 2 (using AirLink) and the console shows this:

[23:05:11.674] [DawnVR] [WARNING] [SteamVR] Initialization failed. VR may be disabled in player settings. Go to player settings in the editor and check the 'Virtual Reality Supported' checkbox'. OpenVR is not in your list of supported virtual reality SDKs. Add it to the list in player settings. To force OpenVR initialization call SteamVR.Initialize(true).
[23:05:11.676] [DawnVR] [ERROR] [SteamVR] Initialization failure! Disabling VR modules.

Interaction menu text can get hidden behind objects

The sprites were fixed by replacing the shader right after it's material was created.
The text, as of now, isn't fixed as it uses a custom shader that I do not have access to.

[ERROR] Failed to Invoke PreStart Method!

Whenever I patch any game and launch it I stare at the unity loading screen for 5 minutes then crash. Im not using any mods.
If you need more info just tell me.

Create bindings for WMR and put controls in README

Pre-rendered videos are displayed on the UIRenderer

Need to find a way to redirect that specific window to the cutscene box.
