Elvenfoundry Update 14 - Quick play, passthrough & interdimensional travel
🕑 Added 2024-05-03 08:39:11 +0000 UTC
Update 14 is ready for download with a new feature that I have wanted to add for some time now.
This new update includes a new main room for the initial calibration that allows to jump right into business with your selected elf! Just calibrate the player and select your desired position and elf. It will all be setup for you instantly.
You can also set a green background, this allows to use passthrough if you are playing with a Quest 3 using Virtual Desktop. So yeah, elfs at home!
If you find that the quick scene is not centered, make sure you are aligned with your SteamVR play center, or recalibrate it from the SteamVR menu BEFORE starting the quick scene.
Also, the portal room is now usable, meaning you can already travel to the elf dimension. There is really nothing to do there yet, but I wanted to open the path already so you can see how the game progresses between updates.
Beware of the quantum travel, it can make you dizzy!
Remember you can also post feedback, ideas and suggestions in the official Discord channel!

Hello! The development is going well! I'm now working on the main factory building part of the game that will unlock new characters, rooms, and other activities. The first build will be uploaded soon and new objectives and unlockable stuff will be added from there! I've been working on that for some months and didn't want to upload builds that were too broken or filled with bugs. But it's close now! You can check some WIPs in the discord channel

It's been a while. Any updates on the game???

Hello. If you mean as controllers, playing via Virtual Desktop will enable the passthrough and controller simulation with hands. You will be missing the buttons and locomotion but the collision and grabbing works fine.

Hello, I have the Meta Quest 3 and it's working great. My question is : is it possible to use my hand as trackers instead of the remote ? other apps seem to be working fine but i can't find a way to make it work with ElvenFoundry.

You need to play the game via Virtual Desktop and enable it from the settings. Adjust the color to match the green background in Elvenfoundry

How do I set up the pass-through feature? Can't seem to figure it out

Thank you very much, I can't wait. Damn near shaking in my boots for the future. Definitely gunna stay a patron. When I played the first build and realized the possibilities for the future of the game; I cannot wait. Thank you dev for all you've done

Hello. Current builds are VR exclusive, and the game will be playable in desktop mode in the future, but keep in mind the factory aspect of the game will be quite different from the very early desktop builds you may have played.

I downloaded and tried to play but it seems like I cant play without vr? am I doing it wrong or is this exclusive? I played your very early version and it was above and beyond what I imagined, I want more but I'm hoping I don't need vr to play cuz its a better satisfactory

Hi! Clothing physics should be working in this build, I will check if something broke with the update on the character controller. Thanks for letting me know!

Just got the game recently and I'm enjoying it quite a bit but i had a question, it looks like a lot of the posts on Twitter/X/whatevs had some pretty advanced cloth physics but I cant get the Elve's shirts to lift in the way I've seen. is that feature not fully implemented yet?
