An add-on for Kerbal Space Program (KSP) to enable the use of a virtual reality headset (HTC Vive, Valve Index, Windows MR, Oculus Rift, etc), as supported by OpenVR. Supports in-flight IVA, and room-scale VAB / SPH. This is a forever-WIP mod to allow the use of VR headsets in KSP. The primary focus is for flight control in IVA, but can also be used for room-scale viewing inside the VAB or SPH. IVA in VR puts you inside the cockpit of your craft. You can look around (and walk around if you have the physical space around you). Currently, it is possible to interact with cockpit instrumentation provided by the RPM mod (see note below); more immersive features for the cockpit may come sometime in the future. The goal is to replace the use of the keyboard and mouse entirely with interactive cockpit controls (buttons, switches, control sticks, throttles, etc.).

Features

  • Room-scale VR in the VAB and SPH allows you to walk around inside the building and see your craft at a 1:1 scale
  • Performance will vary wildly between setups
  • There is an infinite combination of PC specs, video cards, VR rendering resolutions, headset refresh rates, etc.
  • The goal is to replace the use of the keyboard and mouse entirely with interactive cockpit controls
  • IVA in VR puts you inside the cockpit of your craft
