Doom (2016)

SolKutTeR · 24. August 2026

Doom VFR war ja leider nur so semi, die Doom 3 PCVR Mod und die Doom 3 PSVR Kompilierung hingegen waren einfach überragend. Da könnte das neue Projekt vom guten Gregor (Entwickler von Cactus Cowboy) interessant werden. Denn er arbeitet augenscheinlich an einer PCVR-Mod für das 2016er Doom.

Doom 2016 VR
Cactus Cowboy dev here. I'm deep into making a proper Doom 2016 VR mod with motion controls. It's far from done and but in a good shape already.

Essentially posting here to prevent someone reinventing the wheel. Once this Mod reaches a playable state, I'll be posting again / create a thread on Flat2VR Discord. Just trying to prevent that someone else starts working on the same thing so we don't end up with mods for the same game like Bioshock or so.

Development will be stalled the next few days, as I'm heading to Gamescom Colonge from Tue to Thu.
Stay tuned for more.

Diverse YouTuber konnten jedoch bereits einmal hineinschauen, hier z.B. Beardo Benjo und VR DaD:

DOOM 2016 is finally a full VR game and this might genuinely be the best VR mod I've played in 2026! With full motion controls, physical melee combat, weapon holsters and room-scale support, DOOM has never felt this immersive. This is the modern DOOM VR experience we've all been waiting for!

You can support the VR dev behind DOOM VR's creation by picking up a copy of their native game Cactus Cowboy Desert Warfare today: https://store.steampowered.com/app/25...

DOOM VR will be available here shortly: https://github.com/CactusVRStudios/KH...

I can honestly say that DOOM (2016) VR is FINALLY HERE! This isn't just a simple camera hack—this is, in my modest opinion, the absolute BEST VR Mod EVER made for Doom 2016, and it brings the game to new heights.

In this video, I break down the main mod features and then we dive deep into the game showing you how the game looks...and I take you deep down in the UAC facility, the lazarus lab and then straight to hell! Don't miss the Cyberdemon boss fight!

Yes, there is some jank, and native stereo is missing but believe me, this is one of the best VR experiences ever and everyone must-try this!

GitHub-Anlaufstelle wurde nun freigeschaltet und eine erste v0.5 Beta liegt vor.

A DOOM (2016) VR conversion mod
KHARVOX is a total VR conversion for DOOM (2016). It adds room-scale 6DoF movement, tracked motion-controller input and stereoscopic VR rendering to the original campaign.

KHARVOX 0.5 Beta includes updated left- and right-hand calibration defaults, hands and weapons at 77% of their original size, and the integrated VR intro. The launcher displays the release version and replays the VR intro after an upgrade to a newer release. A legally acquired, complete PC version of DOOM (2016) is required. The game and its assets are not included.

Installation

Download the latest KHARVOX release from the GitHub Releases page.

Extract the complete archive into a new folder of your choice. Do not run the launcher from inside the ZIP file, and do not copy KHARVOX into the DOOM installation folder.

Make sure DOOM (2016), your headset software and an OpenXR runtime such as SteamVR, Meta XR or VDXR are installed and ready.

Run KharvoxLauncher.exe from the extracted KHARVOX folder.

Keep all extracted KHARVOX files together in the same folder. Start DOOM through KharvoxLauncher.exe whenever you want to play in VR.

Windows Defender / VirusTotal: Windows Defender has been reported to flag KharvoxGameIntro.exe as Trojan:Win32/Bearfoos.A!ml. The VirusTotal report for the bundled Beta 0.2 file, checked on September 10, 2026, shows 1 of 71 detections, from Microsoft (Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml).

Instructions
General information and limitations
Known issues and limitations
Native Stereo rendering is highly experimental and is not currently recommended. Work is ongoing to improve its integration. Use AER for the recommended experience.

KHARVOX has been tested with the Steam release of DOOM (2016). It changes the game's rendering, camera and controls, so compatibility or startup issues may occur. Some hardware, including AMD graphics cards and less common headsets, may need additional setup. If a launch fails, close any remaining DOOM window and select Launch Game again.

Changing graphics quality while a level is loaded can freeze or crash the game. Change quality in the main menu before loading a level.

Best practice

Set your headset to the highest refresh rate it supports; 90 Hz or higher is recommended.

Quest headsets should use Virtual Desktop or Meta Quest Link.

Keep the DOOM game window in focus while playing. The launcher makes one focus attempt when the DOOM window becomes available and does not repeatedly reclaim focus. Click the status line beneath the launch button to bring a running game to the foreground manually.

Controller bindings

Left controller

Input Action
Trigger Equipment / grenade
Grip near support point Two-hand support
Grip tap away from support point Next equipment
Grip hold BFG when not holding a weapon with two hands
X Dossier
Y Switch weapon modification
Stick Move
Stick click Menu / Pause

Right controller

Input Action
Trigger Fire
Grip in front Weapon modification / alternate fire
Grip behind shoulder Shoulder Weapon
A Crouch
B Jump
Stick left / right Turn
Stick up Chainsaw
Stick down, tap Switch weapon
Stick down, hold Weapon wheel; aim with the left stick
Stick click Use / Melee / Glory Kill
In menus, A confirms and B goes back. Full-screen interfaces preserve the selected handedness layout. Physical Glory Kills follow the launcher setting without replacing normal menu input.

Left Hand mode — Button swap

Left Trigger and Grip become Fire and weapon modification; the left hand holds the weapon.

Right Trigger and Grip become Equipment and two-hand support.

Left Stick click becomes Use / Melee / Glory Kill; Right Stick click becomes Menu / Pause.

Face buttons and stick axes stay in their standard physical positions.

Left Hand mode — Button and Stick swap

Uses the trigger, grip and stick-click swap described above.

Right Stick moves; Left Stick turns and controls weapon selection.

Left Y jumps and Left X crouches.

Right A opens the Dossier and Right B switches the weapon modification.

Movement
Physical room-scale movement is translated into the game separately from stick locomotion.

Turn mode

Smooth: continuous turning from 150°/s to 400°/s; the default is 230°/s.

Snap: rotates by the configured angle each time the turn stick is pushed sideways.

Off: disables artificial stick turning. Physical turning and room-scale movement remain available.

Movement direction

Head direction: moving forward follows the horizontal headset direction. This is the default.

Off hand direction: moving forward follows the horizontal aim direction of the non-weapon controller. Right-handed mode uses the left controller; Left Hand mode uses the right controller. Invalid tracking or a nearly vertical controller safely falls back to Head direction.

Left Hand mode moves the tracked weapon to the left hand and the support role to the right. Button swap keeps movement on the left stick and turning on the right. Button and Stick swap moves locomotion to the right stick and turning and weapon selection to the left stick, while moving face-button actions to the opposite controllers.

Game options
Immersive Mode
Keeps supported Glory Kills, traversal sequences, tutorials and cinematics in stereoscopic VR instead of presenting the complete frame on a flat Cine Window. This is more immersive, but authored camera motion can be uncomfortable.

Freelook in cinematics and Glory Kills: headset rotation controls the view while the authored sequence continues.

Regular cinematics in Cine Window: interactive VR moments remain immersive, while regular scripted cinematics use the comfort window.

Cine Window follows headset
Makes the virtual screen used for cinematics follow your headset. When disabled, the screen stays in a fixed position. Menus and other VR elements are unaffected.

Physical Glory Kills
A forward punch from the selected hand or hands can trigger Melee / Glory Kill. The threshold ranges from 1.0 m/s to 4.0 m/s in 0.2 m/s steps and defaults to 2.8 m/s. Move it toward Fast if normal hand movement causes accidental attacks.

Shoulder Weapon
Move the weapon hand behind its matching shoulder and make a fresh Grip press. If the selected weapon is unavailable or empty, KHARVOX tries the Combat Shotgun and then the Pistol. It never unlocks or grants a weapon.

Enable Hands
Shows static controller hands during gameplay. Enabled by default in all profiles. Hands are hidden during supported cinematics and transitions, and Left Hand mode mirrors the weapon and support hands.

Hands Jump
Raise both hands to jump. Enabled by default in all profile presets; you can switch it off in the launcher. You can still use the jump button. Works with either renderer, even when hand models are hidden. Disabled in menus and cinematics.

Virtual Gunstock
Adds a headset-relative rear anchor to calibrated two-handed, barrel-aligned weapons after the support grip is acquired. This can make long-range aiming steadier while preserving tracked controller movement.

Laser sight
Projects an aiming line from the rendered muzzle of supported firearms. It has no effect on weapon accuracy or projectile behavior.

Rendering
Native Stereo rendering is highly experimental and is not currently recommended. Work is ongoing to improve its integration. AER is the recommended renderer.

AER is the default renderer. Native Stereo Experimental renders both current eyes and shares the HUD, Cine Window and optional FSR upscaling. Native cutscenes use the Cine Window. Resolution changes require restarting the game.

Render Scale
Render scale adjusts the resolution used to render the game. Higher values can improve clarity but demand more GPU power; lower values can improve performance at the cost of detail. The maximum supported resolution depends on your graphics card and VR runtime. Restart the game after changing this setting.

FSR Upscaling

With Meta XR, VDXR or SteamVR, select the recommended AER renderer, choose a Render Scale below 100%, and enable Use FSR Upscaling.

Start at 80%. Lower values reduce more source-pixel work but also lose fine detail.

FSR remains inactive at 100% or higher. Below 100%, verify FSR1 active in the launcher status line.

Recommended runtime starting points:

Quest / Pico: Virtual Desktop with VDXR

Valve Index / PSVR2: SteamVR

Use the highest stable headset refresh rate your system can sustain. Every KHARVOX launch disables DOOM's native Motion Blur, automatic Glory Kill Motion Blur and Chromatic Aberration. These temporary VR-safe overrides do not replace the encrypted DOOM user profile or campaign saves.

bHaptics
bHaptics feedback requires compatible gear and the bHaptics Player for Windows. Pair and verify the devices in the Player before starting the game.

Enable bHaptics may remain selected without connected hardware. Missing equipment, an unavailable Player or a local bridge error does not block DOOM; normal controller rumble remains independent.

PSVR2 Toolkit
Use PSVR2 Toolkit is experimental and works only with PlayStation VR2 hardware. It requires PSVR2 Toolkit 1.0 or later and a working PSVR2 SteamVR setup. KHARVOX applies weapon-specific adaptive-trigger resistance to the weapon hand; the support hand remains disabled and normal controller rumble is unaffected. Missing or inactive Toolkit software never blocks game startup.

Install and update PSVR2 Toolkit separately. Support is available through the PSVR2 Toolkit Discord.

Building from source
Requirements

Windows 10 or Windows 11, x64

CMake 3.20 or newer

Visual Studio with Desktop development with C++ and a Windows SDK

.NET SDK with the .NET Framework 4.8 targeting pack

Clone the repository and its optional PSVR2 Toolkit source link:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/CactusVRStudios/KHARVOX.git
cd KHARVOX

Configure and build the native layer and bridges outside the source tree:

cmake -S . -B ..\kharvox-build\native -A x64 -DKHARVOX_BUILD_LAYER=ON -DBUILD_TESTING=ON
cmake --build ..\kharvox-build\native --config Release --parallel

Build the launcher:
dotnet restore launcher\KharvoxLauncher\KharvoxLauncher.csproj
dotnet build launcher\KharvoxLauncher\KharvoxLauncher.csproj --configuration Release --no-restore

Run the native tests:

ctest --test-dir ..\kharvox-build\native -C Release --output-on-failure

The PSVR2 bridge is optional. CMake builds it only when the linked PSVR2 Toolkit headers are available under tools/PSVR2Toolkit. A clone without submodules still builds the rest of KHARVOX.
