What is UEVR? How are you playing Squad in VR? I'm confused! Help!
It's an external plugin that "Injects" VR into your game, it should work with the majority of unreal engine 4 and 5 games.
@Gamingwithmatteo311 explains it really nicely here:
• UEVR Mod is AMAZING bu...
Massive shoutout to Squiders for making the amazing Zeus Mod that I used in this video.

START HERE
What you Need:
1) A VR headset that can connect to Steam VR. This is basically every headset, if you have something like me, a Quest2 or Quest3, install the steamlink app(FREE) from the Meta store to connect to your PC wirelessly or with a cable. DO NOT USE VIRTUAL DESKTOP(Paid app) I tried it and it was causing me major issues, wait until it's fixed.
2) The game Squad.
3) A beefy PC, the game has to be rendered TWICE (one for each eye) and played at a higher resolution. I went from around 160FPS on desktop to 45-55FPS in VR in most situations.
4) Patience.
Tutorial:
Step 1:
Install UEVR (follow this guide, explains it better than i could, Don’t launch Squad yet)
• UEVR - Getting Started...
(Download links in that video’s description)
Step 2:
Launch Squad BUT make sure you’re running it without EAC (anti-cheat) by launching it through its folder NOT via Steam’s launcher, It should be somewhere like:
X:/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Squad/SquadGame/Binaries/Win64/SquadGame.exe
DO NOT TRY TO JOIN A SERVER (very likely EAC might think you are using hacks and BAN your account, you’ve been warned)
Step 3:
From Squad’s main menu, go to training - launch jensens range.
Step 4.
Select whatever kit and spawn.
Step 5.
Alt-Tab out of the game and Launch Steam VR. (we havent launched UEVR yet)
Step 6:
Launch UEVRInjector.exe that you installed from Step 1.
Step 7:
In the UEVRInjector window, select Squad from the Inject processes list. Choose the OpenVR setting (Open XR gave me issues) and click Inject. After a few seconds go back to your VR headset and voila. You are in VR.
(If you are confused please see Step 1s video)
Step 8.
Now, you will find that you can’t walk or do much at all. UEVR translates your VR controllers into an Xbox gamepad. So you need to fool Squad into thinking you are using one. On your desktop go to Options then Controls and you’re gonna need to assign movement to your left joystick, fire to your right trigger, ADS left trigger, reload to A and so on. It’s gonna take some tinkering until you get everything working.
At this point you should be able to run around, shoot, reload using your motion controllers but most likely than not, your camera is gonna be off and you aren’t able to look through the guns sights.
Tuning the camera:
On your desktop, open the UEVR screen that launched after you pressed inject, the main thing that I changed is where the camera is located so I could use the scope.
These are VR_CameraFowardOffset, VR_CameraRightOffset, VR_CameraUpOffset, you’re gonna have to mess with it until the sights look perfect when you ADS ingame. I recommend you do very minor changes using the desktop app by typing the numbers (not using the slider) because its a lot easier to make small adjustments. I don’t know if mine will work for you but they are
camera_forward_offset0=-3.521269
camera_right_offset0=-3.200000
camera_up_offset0=0.000000
decoupled_pitch0=true
decoupled_pitch_ui_adjust0=true
And you’re good to go!
I recommend a mod like Zeus(link above) to fight against bots and build your own missions.
There are UEVR profiles that you can import but only for other games. When one becomes available for Squad I will link it here and that should save people a ton of time. I'm not sharing mine because its extremely jank and broken.
Issues:
1 Everytime I die I have to use the mouse on my desktop to select a spawn location.
2 When I’m using vehicles and it changes direction, I’m still facing the same way and I have to physically rotate my body to match the vehicles direction. Its not very good and the main reason why I didnt show many vehicles ahah
3 I’m also unable to do small adjustments to the vehicles gun sights without using a mouse (the game thinks you are using WASD to swing the gun).
4 I can’t use the ingame UI for resupplying and had to use the mouse to be able to interact with it.
5 Many scopes don’t work and I don’t know why. (ie ACOG)
6 A lot of the VFX will only display on 1 eye, you wont see this on the recording though!
If anyone figures these out let me know and I’ll update the description.
Enjoy your motion sickness! - Ігри
Hey guys! Everything is in the description but the TLDR is:
Yes its offline! The mod is injecting stuff into your game, anti-cheat could (potentially) ban you, not recommended.
Yep, they are bots! Because- it's offline. The bots are part of a mod.
And one thing I forgot to mention, if you dont have audio after following the guide you need to change your audio output in the game settings (I literally ran out of characters to type in the description LMAO)
How do you do a offline match?
I'm getting "SErialization error: Action needed" error window saying I need to verify files, when running from the squad folder to avoid EAC. Did you run into this?
Hey! just launch into the training map. If you wanna fight bots you need to use one of the mods I linked. After that just type "Admin changelayer" in the console followed by the map name@@tehtrc3235
I had no errors besides a couple of crashes (probably Zeus mods related). However I will say, verifying files doesn't always work, you might need to uninstall and reinstall the game. (try verifying first though) @@Kogtrey
Is there any way to use this in multiplayer without getting banned or is it doomed to be used only in singleplayer ?
Like jokes aside, we all actually expected a vr game *like* squad, not *literally* squad
I expected squad
I expected actual VR support since Offworld has made a VR game before
i expected some shit like onward
Yeah this is crazy
I be totally down for a full vr game of squad the battles already look great
PTSD VR Simulator? Sign me up
Pls sign me up too
Don't forget about me !
What about me ?!?
I'm joining in.
True
I’m thinking this needs to become an official thing
There is no money in VR industry to this day
Im saying that as a VR headset owner since 2019
@@olegdusov4273 you are correct, but it still would be cool and might get squad a few more sales by drawing in the practically starving to death for games VR users.
@@olegdusov4273 For the most part I agree with you as another VR owner. However, the quests are selling like pretty crazy, millions of units for Q2 and Q3, so there is yet some life in VR.
@@olegdusov4273 the quest 2 outsold the xbox series x and the quest 3 has been popping off. it just got a AAA skyrim style rpg
I said as an argument - why this will never be an official thing.
A lot of work to make VR version good, then maintain the quality for new content, all of that to get absolutely insignificant amount of sales to players with HIGH-end pc's and headsets.
Quest is doing well, because it is basically a console, buy and play.
Meanwhile, PCVR to this day requires a lot of planning, tweaking and problem-solving from customers.
That used to be my dream "a squad game in vr"
Can't believe it just works in squad itself
It works pretty damn good actually!!! But I cant get sound to work for some reason using the G2.
its using the UEVR injector. Flying Helos now is especially cool as you can compltely look around.
I was also jsut using mouse and Keyboard. It works well.
With some waiting, this will be a thing in "free squad", aka Operation: Harsh Doorstop.
I just play onward
@@chaseonthecase9191 onward isnt anything like squad
It only makes it look like your in VR but all it does is render the game on the screens on your vr headset, not to mention that it renders the game TWICE which makes your fps go wayyyyy down
All those realistic graphic deaths and death moans are gonna hit a lot harder now
Squad should really make an official VR version

@@olegdusov4273 The amount of videogames named by AAA developers can be counted on like one hand.
@@olegdusov4273 Because we need more titles that are AAA or even AA like Squad. There's like no draw to play VR from a flat gamer perspective, the last big game in mainstream eyes was and still is Half Life Alyx. Maybe Assassin's Creed Nexus now but not really. Classic chicken and the egg scenario. No one wants to risk making a great VR game, no players come, no money, no games.
@@samushamu7372 no, PCVR probably will never be number 1 platform anymore, PC games will remain as Quest ports, because it has a massive playerbase, thanks to all the parents, who buy Quest for their kids.
You can buy a pcvr headset, that need a powerful PC AND someone, who understands how to setup all of this
@@samushamu7372 in general AAA games provide a short time player increase, headset sits on the shelf after that 1 game, then goes to Ebay.
Lethal company VR on Quest, Minecraft is still not on Quest officially, Roblox is, but there is barely any games in it for VR.
Long term FUN games, that keep players engaged. 10 hours strory games cant do that. We have shooter genre mostly covered, but Im personally super bored from them, I played them for couple of years, now I want to have coop fun, is there fun coop games for Quest and PC VR? Barely any, currently Im playing Dungeons of Eternity, Phasmophobia and unreleased Lethal company mod
2:19
I don’t think people realize how cinematic this ended up being.
POP, comrade collapses… silence.
That’s some realistic shiz, Nano couldn’t do anything for him.
That's shit actually scared me
It also sounded fucking real. The genuine fuck from nano too.
Right this the best look fps I’ve seen in vr
I audibly groaned from that
The graphical fidelity of Squad makes VR gameplay look like Go Pro footage
yeah nah
@@elchartps3 nah yeah
If it had the filter than yeah.
Reality must be hard for you.
@@benanantavara4272 ISRAEL IS PROBABLY GONNA TRY TO PASS THIS OFF AS THEM FIGHTING "HAMAS"
If this was a true standalone VR game it would literally be one of the best, if not the best vr game out there
But sadly you in a huge disadvantage. Just a regular 2k screen with a mouse will wipe out everyone on VR team.
Yeah, you don't allowed to have dreams in here! It's VR!
vr and people who play on pc are separated, when would that ever be a thing where mnk users are going against people using vr???@@ASHOT3359
eh vr has contractors and pavlov lol
@@capolean2902 i don't like COD and CS. Making them VR don't really doing it for me.
there is no doubt. it would be the best vr game ever made. there is nothing better suited to vr than simulators, nothing better suited than online with other vr players, and nothing better suited to it than fps games. combine these as a fleshed out mil sim game in vr, hands down the best possible use case for vr.
Dude Squad is one of my favorite games but I feel like playing it in VR would give me flash backs lol
imagine if they added gore
@@TruthPrevails24 yeah, like pulling your downed team mate back into a building to safety from the road, as your dragging him in an RPG hits the buildings wall outside blowing his legs off 😅 lol. The ability to carry bodies, throwing the enemy teams bodies out the windows to humiliate them. Possibilities would be endless, the fun you'd have
@@scottpyke6069 yes, and i want gore too, legs flying off heads fingers and etc lol. make it so much more exciting
@@TruthPrevails24 yeah I've been saying that too, OWI just has to add the Post Scriptum gore system to Squad, but it'll be very unlikely because they said a lot of veterans play Squad so adding realistic gore would very likely trigger them in some way, but there is gore in Post Scriptum because because there isn't much WW2 veterans alive to even play it, something like that but it's close
@@sethorite yeah, I could see that which sucks cause I understand that but if someone has that bad of triggers, they shouldn’t be playing a game like that at all especially at home because I could definitely danger themselves. and I don’t know I think if other games can do it they can too because Alma I know a lot of people won’t agree on me with this, but I think Arma is more realistic than squad. It’s just a graphics on squatter better but I mean I legit fingers and body limbs, and everything flying off. I think they’re gonna make a new update, eyeballs and stuff pop out to.
5:47 looks super realistic
For real looks straight out of r combat footage. The future is exciting
Fr
@@daniel_dumileto bad that sub is dogwater
It's just a circlejerk now honestly@@randomclipsmilitary9056
Only thing that's keeping it from full or almost full realstic look is the Hu d on thr screen
As a former AAV mechanic, 10:07 is just the funniest shit in the world.
I'm waiting for the pain update, where you can feel real pain.
Sounds like you need the haptic feed back suit
@@Andrew-xq7nibut the slightly modified version to make it *ULTRA REALISTIC*
Sounds like you need a therapist
That’s just vanilla squad
Ever heard of the PiShock? :)
2:23 . bro I was shocked how good that quality was dude. when you were like "that felt real" I could imagine, it looked real
Nanos always here to fill us with vr content when we need it 😊
Yo?
He is inevitable
He never fails to put his content inside of us.
This seems like it would be an invaluable training device for the military. I remember running convoy ops scenarios in ARMA 2 on a LAN one day with my platoon years ago when I was in. I can't imagine doing it in VR.
So you can kill more innocent people? When is the last time the US has fought a just war?
Negative. Marines will always train by actually humping their packs in real terrain. Not playing Squad.
@@1stdebunker One and done?
The natural way the guns move around makes this have the same sort of "feel" of bodycam footage. Very cool to watch imo.
4:12 The iron sights on M16-based rifles are actually super accurate in real life (if zeroed properly). It's modeled surprisingly well here in VR!
The rear aperture is too big
@@xxxodyou wouldn't be able to see shit if it was a peep sight, peep sights in games suck ass
Holy this is some of the most realistic vr combat I've ever seen. This is really well made
JEEZ I’m only 0:17 seconds in and your video looks amazing man!
Great editing on the intro
I’m actually shocked by the way the game looks! I have an Index and I don’t think it would do this game justice
Now all I need is a body suit to feel the pain.
When inevitably Ready Player One happens, VR military simulators will literally cause PTSD because of the physical trauma 😂😂
@@karelpgbr yes but unironically
eventually VR will progress to the state of being indistinguishable from reality and will cause mental issues. I mean, from my experience, older people legit cant tell VR and IRL apart, its already dangerous for them.
They make a haptic suit called the OWOVest now. it shocks you where you get hit.
I had a kid in my lobby in a co-op swat game called tactical assault. and he had one and told everyone. Everyone teamkilled him constantly as he screamed for his life...
Nano always delivers funny and enjoy content
Love your content Nano happy late new year
How to get PTSD:
Step 1: Play Squad Flatscreen
How to get ultra PTSD:
Step 1: Play Squad in VR
So with the ACOG, the view window is very narrow. They made it so your player's head (or camera in this sense) needs to be in a specific position in order to get a clear view. They did this so when you shoot, you're off sight/not aligned due to recoil. Or when you're moving a lot, you cant focus. Move your head towards the scope more or pull back. You'll end up finding the sweet spot, but its kinda trash when you're tryna stay alive lol.
Thanks for showing us this! Love it.
Love your videos they always make me laugh. Keep it up!
What the- This, this is going to be the most memorable VR Shooter in no time!
That Command and Conquer reference just sent me back over a decade. Thank you for the flashback, Nano 👊
Looks so good and cool with Vr
Thanks a million for posting the directions in the description to be able to do this!
This looks so great! Insane how you got it working on Vr
One of the first thing I did with my quest was play squad using virtual desktop. This... thank you.
Squad is already so immersive at times I can't even imagine how immersive it is in VR. Legit, it is the only non-VR game that has caused me physical injury because I once jumped so hard I kneed myself in the jaw.
love you nano! glad to see another squad clip
Wow that's so cool, will watch your videos after this
Holy shit I never expected this to look so cool and realistic, I might have to do this one day
5:57 damn the transition is clean
Nano, you did it. You got me back into squad with this damn gem.
I was literally just setting this up and wanted background noise and your video came up....AWESOME!
I love the subtle little brothers in arms reference he did while he was running with that pistol
I thought I was the only one who caught that
wow it looks really good, VR is now actually viable.
Congrats on your 300th vid nano 🎉
Holy snap! I wish I was more of a nerd so I knew how/what to get to play this! This looks amazing in VR!
Seeing Nano saying goodbye free time, almost convinced me to try this with an Index 😂
Lovely to see nano having fun
Did not expect this to come but I’m glad it did
I was waiting for your video😊
I remember this being a thing years ago as well but it got disabled because I think people were using it to cheat by looking through walls and stuff. If I remember correctly you just put a command in the launch properties and it would launch in VR because the devs left everything for basic VR support in the coding/files.
Gaming will only keep getting more and more insane
dude when nano posts a video about vr,i get super excited
Nano experiences the horrors of war from his office chair
Must be 10,000 times easier to play on VR than it is to play Squad now
W video Nano I can never get board watching you
Waited so long for this
This almost accurately reflects the helmet mounted Go-Pro footage that's been coming out over the past 2 years
This shit looks so high quality in VR. They need to make this a reality.
Maybe not reality but official VR port would be nice
NGL, this actually looks sick!
Nano you beast, thank you so much for showcasing this! So epic!
I haven't seen this since the Oculus DK2 days. A few beta players like myself figured we could leave the runtime running and launch Squad and enjoy some hectic, downright traumatizing gunfights. Devs promptly removed VR features.
Hey Nano! Post Scriptum has gotten some really big updates recently and the player count is pretty high for Post Scr- sorry, Squad 44. It'd be pretty awesome if you checked it out :D ❤
You know what....The ICO really fits VR... Slightly feels like it Tbh
yes Yes YEEEESSSSS finaly, I just 2 days ago find this UEVR and just thinking what if SQAUD in this and now you show this video
2k hours in SQUAD... this looks 👌
war crimes on a vr what a nice day
1:18 cover fire, lights up team lol. Loved the video
i love the random C&C Generals quotes you occasionally use.
2:19 the worst part is that some of our snipers probably saw that exact thing at some point
"My whole head is shaking, one sec Bleeaghhh 🤮... Ok"
Shooting the turret
Lmao I felt that 😂
Also that sniping shot realization
"It is so satisfying! 😮"
This VR gonna trigger all the PTSD
7:21 fun fact that optic is called the elcan spectre and is a Canadian product from USA owned Raytheon
hillarious as allways nano..... you the best
My 4 year old PC can't even properly manage Squad anymore and you just implant this program into VR? I rly feel the urge to save extra now
VR isnt that heavy to pc, i did think that before having a VR rig, but addind the squad terrible performance i can understand what you saying
Now it hurts to slide and crawl.
that's sick, would love to try it
I never expected VR SQUAD. This is awesome.
If/when this becomes a thing, I may have to go into a little bit of debt to build a computer to handle VR Squad.
Wow this seems like how the game should be!
I'll say it at least looks really good on video. Pretty crazy evolution of the flat-to-VR mods, up until the last year or so the most you got was seeing the game in headset with zero motion controls.
Obviously they're very simple here but in a way I feel like it works well.
Finall the ICO I've been waiting for
6:22 nervous moment🤣
I feel like current collided region must do SQUAD VR instead of real warfare!
Like rock scissor paper, you know xD
This is pretty sick, would love to see something like this implemented into squad in vanilla, ofc have the server owner have an option to enable and or disable, and also still needs full hotas support
Modders are keeping VR alive. Respect
Looks awesome. VR is the only way to play. Have you tried Onward? It’s only 5v5 but it’s a VR combat game built from the ground up. Also if you get a gun stock its even more immersive
He has, it's just not the same
Onward just sucks
onward is dogshit lmao
There is also a popular mod for contractors that makes it a super good VR milsim. It gives you realistic guns, gun physics, movement speeds, bullet speeds, great audio effects (bullet crack etc), pretty much everything you would want from a milsim in VR.. and it's actually pretty popular so there are always a couple lobbies up
@@stevensonsteven5965 of course it’s not the same. It isn’t supposed to be. It was the first VR FPS game out iirc probably 6 years ago. It changed what FPS games were. The things you can do in it can’t be done in this squad game which is why I mentioned it. Its was more about tactics & weapons handling. Squad is a standard game, multiple lives etc.
Gonna try this with squad 44 (post scriptum) later to see how it goes
You will get banned dont try it
OH my gooood...that Brothers in Arms Hill 30 reference....loove it. 🥰🥰🥰
Good job, this game now looks like actual combat footage
If this is a mod, that means that owi now has the tools to make it real
they always have, they just didnt want to. hopefully this forces their hand though. an official vr version would be the best thing to possibly happen to vr.
This AI and VR is too much for me, that AK 47 for everyone reminded me of the command & conquer generals, I guess i will go play that rn after months
Your videos release at 4 in the morning in my timezone. Gg
back at it again 🔥🔥🔥
TRIED WITH ONLINE HAVENT BEEN BANNED YET!
What's the likelihood of a VR server at some point?
Johnny Omaha with the sick beats at the end..... Legend!
this looks awesome!
Needs a co-op campaign.
Were the other players also in VR? Or was in mostly bots?
This is honestly amazing.
That actually looks really good
Thumbs up for the Brothers in Arms: Hill to Road 30 reference. Great video.
