VRLF: Virtual Reality Lightgun Framework allows you to play classic and modern light gun games in VR. Supports accurate aiming, special reload mechanics, Steam Workshop modding and more!
VRLF: Virtual Reality Lightgun Framework is a framework for playing light gun games using your VR controllers as the gun. For too long, playing light gun games at home required expensive special hardware or a fancy CRT monitor - but no more! Using your existing VR headset and controllers, VRLF offers a simple and immersive way to adapt light gun games and make them playable, accurate and immersive.
- Support for multiple control types (shoot off screen to reload, crouch to reload, DSU protocol for Dolphin and more)
- User configurable via JSON profiles for maximum compatibility with as many games as possible.
- Steam Workshop support for sharing user profiles - extend VRLF to support any light gun game that can run on a PC and then share with the community.
- 3D scans of popular home light guns including G-Con45 and Wii Zapper. Many controllers and guns to choose from!
- Easy to mod in new guns, environments, and screens/arcade machines which can then be shared through Steam Workshop
- Online multiplayer support. Join a friend through Steam and stream video/inputs to recreate local 2 player light gun action. Requires fast internet!
- Ships with support for lots of light gun games available on Steam including but not limited to: The House of the Dead Overkill, The House of the Dead Remake, The House of the Dead 2 Remake, Heavy Fire series, Blue Estate, Railbreak, BioCrisis and more. Some games require mods to enable light gun support.
- Supports OpenXR, SteamVR and VXDR for wide compatibility with PCVR headsets - tested extensively on the Quest 3, Quest 1, PSVR2 (on PC), and Pico 4.
Note: Virtual Reality Lightgun Framework does not include any light gun games, the user brings their own games and uses the framework to make them playable in VR.
