RE7VR Immersion Enhancer (Bhaptics and Truegear support)

What this mod does

1. 4-Weapon Holster System and controller haptic

• []The mod implements 4 physical holster zones around your body (Right Shoulder, Left Shoulder, Right Hip, and Left Chest). You can quickly get access up to 4 different weapons by grabbing them from these holsters.[/]

  []Right shoulder weapon holster sits directly below your ear, while the RE Framework potion slot is positioned far to your right.[/]

  []Controller Haptic Feedback: You will feel a distinct vibration pulse when your hand enters a holster zone, ensuring reliable blind-firing and weapon swapping. You'll also feel controller vibration during gun fire or melee swings.[/]

  []Recommend to equip knife or electric saw on your chest slot.[/]

2.  Two-Handed Aiming (Optional)

• []To maximize immersion, the mod offers two-handed proximity to aim effectively. No grip button required; simply bring your hands together in a natural firing stance to engage. This adds a layer of realism and tactical tension to every firefight.[/]

  []Gun firing is also allowed by the game without aiming.[/]

3. Manual Reload Simulation

• []Moves away from simple button-press reloading.[/]

  []Holding Left Grip and move your left hand close to your right hand to simulate the manual reloading process, significantly enhancing the tactile feel of weapon handling. Make sure  Left Grip is already pressed before your two hands are closed.[/]

4. Throwing mechanism (End of Zoe)

• []To throw a spear or knife, raise your arm above your head with Right Grip held, then swing your arm to throw.[/]

5. Ammo swap

• []Press Left Trigger with two hands closed.[/]

6. Floor swap on map

• []Swipe left hand upward and downward with Left Grip held. Don't do this motion with palm facing down.[/]

7. Physical Crouching:

• []This mod supports physical crouching. [/]

  []To reset height, put you left hand beside your headset.[/]

8. Item Collection: Press the Left or Right Grip while your palm is facing downward to pick up items, mimicking the native VR "remote grabbing" mechanic.

9. Melee moves (End of Zoe)

• []Punch either hand forward to throw a punch. Diagonal punch swings may not work. [/]

10. Bhaptics and Truegear Vest Support: Integrated full support for bHaptics vests with unique vibration patterns tailored to weapons drawn from variant holsters. Read https://www.nexusmods.com/residentevil7/articles/25 carefully, or you won't get the vibration exactly as I designed.

You must place weapons in the exact slots as per the instruction above, or you won't get vibrations that matchs the weapon you're holding. Grab each weapon from slots (not switching weapons with buttons).

How to Install

1. Have REframwork.zip installed (obviously) in your Fluffy mod manager. Make sure the game is up and running. If not, do not bother to proceed to the next step.

2. Download RE7VR Immersion Enhancer.rar, and install/uninstall with Fluffy mod manager. Be sure to enable my mod after RE framwork.

3.Must have openvr_api.dll in your game root folder deleted, so that openxr runtime is deployed, as there are still bugs cause by openvr runtime. You can use SteamVR+openxr or VDXR+openxr.

How to Use

• []Lauch the game, you're good to go.  [/]

  []To experience the haptic feedback feature, open the Bhpatics Player or True Gear Player , connect your haptic vest. Haptic feedback feature is off by default, turn it on in the RE menu in Scripts Generated UI, choose your gear in the dropdown menu (bhaptics or truegear), and then click Run Scripts to enable it.  You only have to do these two steps once upon first time installation.[/]

READ THE FAQ BEFORE ASKING ANY QUESTIONS. I WILL NOT RESPOND TO ANYTHING ALREADY ANSWERED HERE.

• []Q: Compatibility issues.[/]

    A: If you have mods installed other than RE framework. I have no idea of the compatibility. But it should be fine, if other mods won't tamper with bindings.

• []Q: I can't aim properly with two hands closed.

  A: You probably didn't delete openvr_api.dll upon installation.[/]

  []Q: I can't shoot with two hands closed but I can feel the vibration.

  A: You probably have left RE menu open and your mouse happened to be on top of it. Make sure it's closed before your gameplay.[/]
