WARNING: NOT AVAILABLE FOR OCULUS
This workshop item needs a warning that it cannot be accessed via an Oculus headset. I waited an hour for this to download and I'm unable to play it, and nowhere on the workshop page does it say it's an Index exclusive environment. I know it is because of Tyler, but that's extremely exclusive of you, Valve, and a major blow at Open VR to not allow Oculus users who pre-purchased your game to see these.

You can load this map without an Index, you just have to join through someone who owns an Index. It's not an engine / support thing this is just a reward for people who got the Index.

I know that, and it's a load of bull. Modifying the game files lets me in to walk around them just fine, so it's terribly walled-garden of them to lock other headsets out of seeing them privately. I know it's not a HUGE deal, but posting them publically like this and not giving non-Index owners a warning is very frustrating.

I did get them working via some backdoorsy stuff, btw, so I have seen them all at this point. But it was a lot more work than it needed to be.

if you perfectly follow every step incorrectly, you will get the intended result.

Well that is a disappointment that as an Oculus user who cant get an Index cause Valve dont sell it in this country is a little slack of them.

it's just a matter of time, the corona virus has limited production of almost everything, including the index

It has nothing to do with stock levels but Valve are not selling the Index at all in Australia so this limits me from buying one and hence I cant get this which is as i said above very slack of them.
