No, I don't see how that issue is anything like the one I have reported here. Please see my screenshots and description. I have not been able to play minecraft in VR since last year.
Update 10Jun2021 - I did some investigation, and this issue is not fixed. See attached screenshots. I narrowed it down to exact versions affected
Steps to reproduce:
- Launched game with Oculus Minecraft VR app version 1.17 (and in 1.16.200) - see screenshots for on-screen VR mirror. This behaviour (and all symptoms as per the old bug report below) are the same in every version since 1.16.200
- Launched game with Oculus VR app version 1.16.100 - see screenshots. This works perfectly and normally, and so do all versions prior.
- Launched game using custom shortcut: minecraft://Mode/?OpenXR=true. Everything is the same as launching through the Oculus Minecraft VR app.
Symptoms:
- With version 1.16.200 and later (including 1.17 - latest release) - the main menu in VR is backwards / behind me and out of reach. If I reach up and behind it and launch the game, a huge array of messed up controls and things happen as per the old report below.
- It seems that when I'm wearing the VR headset - the game switches to 'vr mode' and you see a narrow windowed view mirrored on the PC screen.
- When I'm not wearing the VR headset - it seems like the game switches to the 'pc only mode'. This behaviour doesn't happen with version 1.16.100 and earlier.
Original bug report:
My game broke in two stages, the first I noticed a few weeks back the menu locations in VR changed such that the hotbar would always get in the way of mining and I would constantly click on it by accident. The hotbar while on a horse would be in the middle of the screen. It was ALMOST unplayable at this point already.
Stage 2 happened with the latest update making the game 100% unplayable, here are the details:
- Using Oculus VR app (have used it for 100s of hours in past)
- When the game first loads, the very first menu is located behind me, and above me (so I'm behind the menu). I had to really stretch and reach to use the menu to load one of my worlds
- The sound was too quiet, but when I push the oculus button to go to the oculus menu, the sound got louder
- The windowed screen on my PC was strange - too narrow, didn't look right.
- The VR TV screen / living room you first see when you load a world was all messed up, and my location in the room was somewhere almost under the floor. I pushed the button to go into the 3D VR view
- The controls were messed up - turning would have me rotating in a wide arc, rather than turning on spot
- The position of my character was nearly inside the floor
- I couldn't really do much more
This has not been resolved, and the game is still unplayable unfortunately
