Hey everyone!
If you're a VR content creator, you have probably heard of LIV, a great free tool that makes it very easy to capture high quality mixed reality footage of yourself in VR!

cyubeVR now integrates the new LIV SDK, so LIV is fully supported by the game out of the box!
The LIV developers recently released a completely rewritten version of their Unreal Engine integration that makes LIV work really well in UE4 games like cyubeVR.
(This is Kroy, playing cyubeVR with LIV)
The LIV integration in cyubeVR was tested for multiple weeks now actually, and different things were adjusted in multiple versions until everything worked perfectly - you should not notice any issues anywhere!
For performance reasons, the LIV support is available through a seperate build that you can select when right clicking cyubeVR in your Steam library and then going to the "Beta" tab:
You can use LIV with all headsets the game is compatible with (Vive, Rift, WMR).
Also, by default cyubeVR starts in fullscreen and asks you to put it's window in focus, which is due to how the windows thread scheduler prioritizes the currently focused application for performance. Streamers sometimes don't like that behavior since it makes it harder to run something like OVRDrop, so two new INI settings were also added to the game to adjust that:
UseFullscreen=0
ShowFocusWarning=0
You can find the INI file for that at
%localappdata%/cyubeVR/Saved/WindowsNoEditor/Game.ini
You also need to set OverrideDefault=1 in that INI for the changes to take effect.
These INI settings allow you to run the game in a minimized window while still normally playing the game.
Looking forward to seeing the pictures, videos or streams you'll create with cyubeVR + LIV! :) Let us know in the official cyubeVR discord, or tag the official Stonebrick Studios Twitter Account!
That's all for today! Thanks for caring about the game!
If you like the game, don't forget to tell other people about it and write a review on Steam if you haven't done that already, even if its just a few words. Writing a review and spreading the word is the easiest way you can support the game!
Looking forward to hearing what you think :)
Cheers!
