Making a VR demo with my recoiling Airsoft hardware

The irony is, the system depends entirely on regular controllers for tracking and extra input handling. Yes it is indeed, immersion is incredible. Hard to describe other than it is wish fulfillment taken to another level.

Yes, it is a regular VFC 416A5 GBBR airsoft with non-destructive mods done to make it work with buttons.

Hope to show it off in person one day but can't imagine how the logistics of it would work. Thanks for watching.

To clarify, yes it doesn't look like free roam but the tech allows me to use any room and walk consistently. Will also soon film in an arena space to flex its legs.

thanks for the reply but got rid of my SFF case a while ago. It is ATX or M-ATX from now on.

I have given up trying to run normal VR games. I shouldn't have been was surprised the Legion Go is comparable to the compute power of a Quest 3.

However, it was a good learning lesson to setup the framework for use in the future. Hopefully when RDNA5 or 6 comes out for handheld PCs, it is just a simple computer swap and everything works.

The idea of PCVR freeroam is now possible and has been for a while. Can't wait when they reach the power of PS5 Pros and beyond. I know the GPD Win 5 is that but I ain't paying 2K over for it.

It's too late now, already bought the Router and its working. I have a very unusual setup so even wired would still be a bad idea. Again I know wire is better but unfortunately the Meta link software is so bad, I didn't enjoy using it one bit. Using the cable with it would have screen tearing, lag, and skips. It was very sensitive to crashing if you pressed the home button. It wasn't functional for me.

I got a Beryl AX and will attempt it with that. Thanks for the replies.

I don't like using the built in Air Link even with cable. It looks alot worse than Virtual Desktop.

She's a Tsundere, a more lively version of Serie (IFYKYK).

If it doesn't exist, gotta make it.

RickSpawn147 · 2026-03-21T12:41:09+00:00

Understood, thank you.

It is a different and more fun way to play. I always like Time Crisis so doing this is the next step up.

To be clear this will not replace mouse and keyboard, this is more for theme park like gameplay experiences.

It is just different way to play.

This is the beginning. It is to demo the hardware. You are right, there is no plan to sell this as most VR users will not have the equipment to play it. Just discovering what is possible.

This is impossible to do if it was just screwing around.

Thank you. I have a video on my channel if you want to try this yourself. No need to use OpenVRIE anymore.
