Automobilista 2.

Okay, I already spent countless of hours on it in VR. But it was with a shitty CV1 headset!

Maybe this time I'll finish Alyx too.

Let's fucking goooo!!!!

Here's me hoping Linux PCVR is sorted out by the time I can get my hands on one.

FWIW that was already how much we had to pay in Europe before.

That sucks. I'm kinda glad I didn't wait for another month to replace my dying battery, but I'm sad for other people in the same boat.

That and Formula 1 sponsors are the most sus companies in the world.

Yes it's already there, you just have to activate the performance overlay in the "•••" menu.

You can easily alter one of the presets to only show battery percentage by editing `/home/deck/.config/MangoHud/preset.conf` using this documentation.

My goto preset only shows FPS, watts and battery percentage.

I know. I swore my next headset would be Linux-compatible so I can reclaim the space of the windows partition I made exclusively for VR, but unfortunately, until the Frame, only old-ass headsets barely improving from my CV1 were available.

Yes. The Steam Frame will come with the following technologies:

  • SteamOS, just like the Steam Deck, so you can play Windows and Linux games on-device with Linux (both pancake on a virtual screen and lower requirement VR games will be supported)
  • FEX to run x86_64 games on-device (small performance hit, but access to the vast majority of the Proton-compatible Steam library in return)
  • native ARM games are confirmed to be side-loadable (VR or not)
  • a wireless streaming dongle to natively stream PCVR, with foveated streaming to increase quality and reduce bandwidth requirements.

I'm super hyped and will most probably (pre)order it day one to replace my shitty CV1. I'm also hoping for a Steam Deck effect by pushing developers to optimize and use foveated rendering as it drastically reduces hardware requirements for high quality graphics.
