How to avoid that annoying issue when the Twitch/Curse App isn't working. You can still play your saved mod packs and worlds without the Twitch/Curse App. Video Schedule: 1 video Tues, Thurs. The Twitch App checks for addon updates every hour by default. If you would like it to check more or less often you can set it to do so. In your Settings you will want to be in the Addons selection and then the General tab. Scroll to Updates. Then choose how often you would like the Twitch App to check for updates from the drop-down. Thank you so much for your help.but its still not working. I have the ichun and morphing mod in my mod folder. I also have a pixel but its different than the one you have. I have something called Pixelmon-1.10.2-5.0.0-beta12-universal.jar not sure if that matters???? So, here's what I am doing: I have those 3 files in my minecraft mods folder. Please also be aware of the File Types and how the will sync with CurseForge, Curse.com and the Twitch App. Even though a Modpack is approved, if it is not in Release status it will not appear on Curse.com or in the Twitch App. Please make sure your Modpack is in the status you want it to be in and is ready for. I know that Twitch Mod Launcher has a history of messing up modded files. As with Pixelmon, I had to manually install (since the ATLauncher and Technic did not work for me). But recently I decided to return to Minecraft and take a look at the modded universe. I'm not very familiar with the modded world of Minecraft, or even Minecraft Forge.

Gameplay
Does Vivecraft cost money?
No. You are free to use Vivecraft as you wish for playing, recording or streaming. If you enjoy it or use it in your business or content, please consider supporting us on patreon.
Can I play with friends?
Yes! Vivecraft can be used to play on any normal Minecraft server running the same base Minecraft version. You can play with anyone, VR or not.
The VR features you can use in multiplayer depend on the server configuration. See the Multiplayer page for more info!
Can other people see me move in VR?
Yes! With a little work. You will need to be playing via LAN or on a modded server with one of our server plugins. Any desktop players will also need to be using the Vivecraft Non-VR client. See the multiplayer page for more details.
Can I change the desktop mirror?
Yes. Vivecraft offers several options for recording or streaming the desktop window. Pressing F5 while in-game will cycle through the available modes, or options can be set directly in the VR Settings > Stereo Rendering options screen. The Single and Dual mirror modes have no performance penalty. The First Person Undistorted, 3rd Person, and Mixed Reality mirror cost an additional render pass. See the mixed reality cam page for how to set the camera location for 3rd person views.
I don’t want to teleport, how do I switch?
You can choose from several different locomotion methods in the VR Settings > Locomotion screen. Also holding ‘pick block’ for several seconds will toggle between teleport and your chosen free-move mode.
Can I play seated, but with controllers?
Yes. Leave the game in ‘Standing’ play mode and sit. There are 2 options for dealing with being ‘too short’ in-game. The first is to turn on the ‘Allow Origin Offset’ setting. This unlocks the ‘reset origin’ button used in seated mode. Clicking ‘reset origin’ will place your head at the correct height. The other option is to turn up the ‘World Scale’ slider somewhere near 1.5. This will make you feel larger in-game, and keep the ground on the floor. Some servers may restrict the use of World Scaling.
Can I use touchpad-based analog movement?
Yes. Controllers with a joystick will default to this type. Vive wands, lacking joysticks, do not. To enable touchpad movement for Vive Wands you must bind the Move/Strafe Vector2 action to the touchpad in SteamVR Input. You should then relocate any actions bound to touchpad presses to something else.
Can I use Smooth Rotation?
Yes. In VR Settings drag ‘Rotation Increment’ all the way to the left.
Note that Vive wands do not have rotation bound by default, you must bind the Vector2 ‘Rotate Only’ action to the touchpad.
How do I type in game?
Vivecraft has a built-in keyboard that can be accessed at any time by long-pressing the game menu button. The keyboard should also open automatically when clicking on a text input field. In some cases key input may not be recognized if the desktop window does not have focus, this is especially true for modded installations. Make sure the game window has focus on the desktop when using the keyboard.
Is there a left-handed mode?
Yes. Turn on ‘Reverse Hands’ in the VR Settings menu then restart the game. The restart is necessary to load the reversed controller bindings.
Compatibility
What hardware does Vivecraft support?
Vivecraft uses SteamVR to communicate with all hardware components. If your hardware works in SteamVR Home it should work in Vivecraft.
The latest versions of Vivecraft provides default controls for Vive Wands, Oculus Touch Controllers, Windows MR Controllers, and Index Controllers through SteamVR Input. Older versions using Legacy OpenVR have varying comparability depending on their release date.
Mobile VR devices are supported through 3rd-party SteamVR Emulators.
Can I play with mouse/keyboard?
Yes you can. Change ‘Play Mode’ to ‘SEATED’ in the VR Settings menu.
Can I play with a gamepad?
No. Not without some external mod that does keyboard/mouse emulation.
Does Vivecraft work with Forge?
Yes for most versions. See the Downloads page for more info, and this page for individual mod compatibility info. Note that Vivecraft itself is not a Forge mod; both the VR and NonVR Vivecraft clients must be installed as their own profile in the Minecraft launcher.
Does Vivecraft work with Fabric?
No. Vivecraft is based on Optifine and cannot be compatible with Fabric without a major re-write. Additionally, A fabric-compatible Vivecraft would still have conflicts with other mods that modify rendering (like Sodium or Canvas). We have no current plans to pursue Fabric, but may revisit this in the future when the Fabric ecosystem is more mature.
Does Vivecraft work with LiteLoader?
Yes, but only on 1.7.10. Install Vivecraft with Forge then extract the LiteLoader .jar and put it in your /mods folder.
Can I use Vivecraft with mod packs?
Yes! See installation instructions below. Check the modpack forum section or mod compatibility chart if you encounter any issues, individual mods in the pack may need to be removed for compatibility.
Using a third-party modpack launcher (FTB / Curse / Twitch / Technic, etc.)
Below is an example for launching the DW20 pack for 1.10.2 installed via the Twitch App.
Does Vivecraft work with MultiMC?
Yes! Create your MultiMC Instance first, then run the Vivecraft installer. Change the ‘path to Minecraft’ box to the MultiMC root directory (not the instance). Click ‘Install’ and you will be prompted to select the Instance.
See this page for detailed instructions if you need more help.
Does Vivecraft work on Mac or Linux?
Yes. Vivecraft does include OpenVR wrappers and code for Mac and Linux. To install Vivecraft on either of these platforms, simply change the installer extension to .jar and it should run via java.
Can Vivecraft be played via OpenComposite instead of SteamVR?
Vivecraft supports OpenComposite, however the latest versions of Vivecraft (as of July, 2019) require SteamVR Input support and OpenComposite does not yet support this API. Stay tuned for updates related to this.
Older versions of Vivecraft using Legacy OpenVR may have support for OC that works correctly.
To use: After installing Vivecraft, copy the OpenComposite openvr dll to your %AppData%Roaming.minecraftopenvrwin64 folder (or equivalent), overwriting the existing file. Create a new empty file in this directory and name it OpenComposite.ini. Vivecraft should now launch without SteamVR. To revert this installation, delete the .ini file and Vivecraft will overwrite the dll on next launch with the steam version.
Can Vivecraft be played simultaneously on the same PC with regular 2D Minecraft?
For newer versions this should be possible. Vivecraft relies on mouse simulation for mod compatibility so this method of play is not recommended for modded installations.
Troubleshooting
The game shows up on my desktop, but not in the headset!
This occurs frequently on systems with dual GPUs such as gaming laptops. The solution is to force your PC to use the gaming GPU for java. If your PC only has an Intel integrated GPU, then you cannot play Vivecraft as VR on OpenGL is not supported by Intel drivers.
For NVIDIA Laptops:
For AMD Laptops:
As of 12/2019 the preferred GPU must be configured in Windows, under System > Display > Graphic Settings > Graphics performance preference. A global option is not available. You must create a High performance setting for the java runtime that launches Minecraft. For most installations this is ‘Program FilesMinecraftInstallruntimejre-x64binjavaw.exe’.
If your PC is not a laptop or the above solution does not solve the problem:
The game says it cannot detect my HMD!
Vivecraft uses SteamVR to communicate with hardware. You must have SteamVR installed and configured properly. If you are using 3rd party software to emulate a PC VR system make sure it is configured correctly.
The game says “Intel Integrated Graphics are not supported”!
See this answer about setting the correct GPU.
My Oculus headset turns off or crashes when loading a world!
This can be alleviated by setting the Oculus runtime to a higher CPU priority. Open windows task manager, go to the “Details” tab and find ‘OVRServer_x64″. Right click on it and set the priority to “High”.
The game runs poorly, what can I do?
Minecraft was not written for VR and is not a very well optimized game. Here are some steps you can take to improve performance
The game runs OK but there are constant stutters, what can I do?
Microstuttering is typically caused by garbage collection. Minecraft generates an absurd amount of memory garbage and the system needs to periodically scan the game memory and clean it up, usually every few seconds. The speed of garbage collection is dependant on the amount of memory allocation, the speed of the ram, and the speed of your cpu.
Some things to try are:
I can’t click on anything!
Make sure the desktop window is not minimized. Alt-tabbing from a fullscreen game will minimize it. If you need to play without the game window in focus be sure to set it to windowed mode via the video settings or F11.
I’m using a shader pack and everything is blurry!
Identify your mac. Check the specific settings for your shader and disable motion blur, depth-of-field, lens flare, or similar.
The motion controllers don’t respond at all
The Vivecraft installer says ‘Failed to download Optifine: Address family not supported by protocol family: connect’
See this page for some potential solutions
The game starts on a black screen with a SteamVR error message
Error 108: No HMD Found. Ensure you have SteamVR Installed and your HMD is working.
Error 112: Log path not found. This happens when your steam installation has moved. In SteamVR Settings > Developer Options click the Log Path button and set it whereever your steamapp/common/SteamVR directory is.
The game crashes on startup, what should I do?
You will need more information about the crash. Depending on the type of crash this information may be in different log files. Once you have found the correct error message, Keep reading for solutions to common ones.
Where do I find Minecraft logs?
