Statistically you use an Oculus headset. Someone is currently working on a minimal runtime called Oculus Ameliorated that doesn’t have the shitty Dash performance overhead. It’s currently in Patreon-only alpha. Here’s her Discord.
As someone else mentioned, Steam is still proprietary, but at least getting rid of the resource heavy Meta runtime for their headsets is something to look forward to.
Ooh that sounds interesting. I’ll check out that patreon. For now I’ll just continue using steams proprietary solution tho…
I feel the need to clarify based on the phrasing of your response. Oculus Ameliorated doesn’t replace SteamVR. It replaces the Oculus runtime so you can use SteamVR without the extra overhead.
Will this eventually become FOSS, or will this remain preparation?
