VRMod_x64 - Extended

---

Refactored and optimized VRmod version for Garry's Mod x64 branch, with a focus on native Linux compatibility (ALVR only for now) and improved performance.

VRMod and its components—such as hand physics, melee attacks, and item interaction—are maintained by different authors. This often results in compatibility issues, broken features, or abandoned modules.

This build focuses on optimization by re-implementing essential features from semi-official forks and third-party addons, with an emphasis on performance, cross-platform stability, and code de-duplication.

All-in-one package for streamlined setup and easy installation. Ideal for users who want a functional VR experience without scavenging and combining multiple outdated modules.

If you're coming from another VRmod version or setup, it is strongly recommended to reset your VRmod settings to avoid residual conflicts or performance issues. If you have some weird errors about empty lua files, can't run "vrmod" command and etc, make sure that you've read the instructions. Before reporting errors, disable all the addons and purge the cache from <Steam install folder>\steamapps\workshop\content\4000 to confirm that problem is not on your side, If it crashes post a crash log into discussion.

Recommended settings:

Run your Gmod in a lower resolution, windowed.
Higher resolution will not improve VR rendering.

Use low settings for shadows and water reflections, disable VSync and motion blur.
Recommended FPS limit is either the same as your VR headset refresh rate or x2 of that.
Anything above that is waste of GPU power. Any "fps boosters" at your own risk. Keep in mind that maps with a lot of details,especially trees and bushes will perform worse.

If you are having rendering issues, visit rendering tab in the vrmod settings and follow the hints.

If controls are weird, they need to be adjusted in SteamVR. I uploaded couple of configs for quest 2 and quest 3, try to find them.

About "bringing stuff back":
This version is forked from the original. Some things might be missing, especially from semi-official.
These things are missing for a reason. Either because they seem unnecessary, causing instability issues or I can't test them myself (I don't own FBT for example). Remember, this is still a FREE mod for the old good Source engine with it's limitations maintained by a single person. Have realistic expectations and be patient. I don't own you anything. If you will demand things, you will be purged out of here without any hesitation or regret.
