PINNED: Announcement: Future Updates Status

Post
    Dknighter on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
Hey everyone,

I just wanted to make everyone aware of where we are currently at with our next updates.

The VR Overhaul update will be out very soon, likely end of next week if testing keeps going well. We have had to do this update to upgrade the VR functionality and compatibility with the latest technology and standards as the current implementation was designed around VR back in 2017 making it very limited in what it can do, especially with newer headsets and controllers. This has taken a lot of time as we have had to almost completely start over with the VR implementation.

With the VR update we can now upgrade to the latest versions of Unity which will mean we can add a lot new features into Phasmophobia for all players, especially significant graphical and performance updates. These features are necessary for updates such as Horror 2.0.

Very soon after the VR update we will release a small content update which will add a lot of replayability ... Read more

Unfortunately it's not possible to show you the options before joining without sending a massive amount of data into the lobby which would disconnect a lot of people

I'm really excited about the new updates, I really fell in love with this game.

I have one request: can you please add the players to the "Recently Played With" on Steam? sometimes I'd like to add people I play with on random servers but it's hard finding them especially if they crash before we could exchange discord handles or Steam profiles.

They're found here: https://steamcommunity.com/id/XXXXXXX/friends/coplay

AFAIK this is only possible for peer to peer games and not games with dedicated servers however we will look into adding this in eventually.

Hey, yes this will fix this bug as well

Can we get an eta on the vr update?

Comment

Since it is such as big change it will take longer to do than other updates and it also requires a lot of testing. We will be inviting more VR players into the QA beta for this however it's impossible to give a date for anything at the moment.

Ah yes, a 1* interaction

It's definitely not just me, been on lots of forums with equally frustrated peeps that can't play. Crashes during every load for a map. Got nothing helpful to say? Maybe leave it alone.

We are currently in the middle of upgrading to the latest stable version of Unity which will hopefully fix most crashes

I loved the audio bug in solo since can't mute mic which is ridiculous. I have a chronic cough but my XLR doesn't have a mute button on it. I can rarely play solo because a cough will kill me. I don't understand why solo mic is always on

Hey, next update will allow you to use push to talk in solo

50 minutes trying to hear the special sound of the banshee with the parabolic microphone, always pointing directly at the ghost, without success. Bugged?

They are bugged at the moment, it is fixed for the next patch

If you crouch and run at the same time, sometimes you will move in a different direction than you are running. It feels like you get caught on something invisible or something like that. It seems to happen randomly, but it might have something to do with the carpets I’m not sure. It has happened to me and my brother and it happens kind of often. It happens in non-vr mode, I’m not sure if it happens in vr I haven’t tested it yet.

Oh ok, I know exactly what is causing this. It's not an easy fix unfortunately and is a problem with how the player physics are handled. It will be fixed eventually however it's not a big priority at the moment.

/u/cjdxn4 what all is entailed in VR optimization? Any chance of teleport locomotion like in Alyx and other VR titles? I find the movement in VR makes me really sick and this is the only game that has that effect on me

VR will be getting a complete modernisation of locomotion, grabbing, physics etc.

I find most of the positions on vr items to be uncomfortable, lefty here and the worst offenders are photo cam, strong flashlight and video cam which look like I'm breaking my wrist to hold them.

(also please allow always full speed movement in vr, we're sick of dying to poorly optimised movement in what is otherwise such an enjoyable experience)

I've been looking into this for the controller based rotation however for now you can fix it by swapping to head look rotation in the VR settings on the main menu.

Will the Index implementation of the auto-sprint be fixed in a future patch? Setting SteamVR bindings is a royal pain and I can almost guarantee most people won’t even attempt it.

Index controller support is very limited at the moment since they did not exist when I started working on the game and Valve changed the SteamVR input system for them which Phasmophobia doesn't support so unfortunately it can only be fixed when we upgrade to OpenXR which won't be soon. A custom binding is the only way to fix it for now.

Ok, thanks. I will fix it for the next update which will probably be tomorrow.

Well, you tried at least. Please make it optional. It's really, really bad.

Can you confirm what is bad? Is it the rotation of the actual model or just the hand visual?
