No Man's Sky now has a head direction setting, which is used by the updated profile to provide a much more stable direction. It now has sprinting as well as a profile for Windows Mixed Reality.
You need to reset the profile and then configure the game to use "head relative" direction. If you don't do this it will walk side to side.
The update for fixing compatibility with the new SteamVR broke button pressing, which broke sprinting and other features in many games, as well as the home button in feet mode. This has been fixed.
If you experience problems with buttons or lack of sprinting, the driver may not be properly updated. In that case follow these steps to ensure it's up to date:
- Close SteamVR.
- Reinstall Natural Locomotion. (alternatively you can use "verify integrity of game files")
- Open Natural Locomotion without opening SteamVR first.
- You only need to follow these steps once. After that you can open it in whichever order you prefer.
