Haven't tried it myself yet because I'm unable to play Skyrim VR until my leg is fully healed but this is pretty huge if it means that we won't have performance issues playing VR games in our Steam libraries. 😮
Ok, I literally just got out of Skyrim VR, but now I have to go back to try it out (I can't resist xD).
PS : I love it when a huge software problem is solved by simply replacing a single file.
EDIT: I quickly tried to launch SkyrimVR, it's great but there is one problem : the colors are wrong. They are too bright and there is a sort of green filter on it. Did it happen to someone else?
I've had a couple random apps (forget which ones.. I think some of the Felix & Paul studios stuff?) on Oculus Home that when launched, would try to open Steam VR and then just freeze up..
So maybe this will allow me to actually run those apps now, lol.
Good riddance to SteamVR, either way.
It's hard being the voice of reason when you're surrounded by unreasonable people.
