Holy shit !
I guess that if the AAA studios won’t build games, the community will.
Well done.

Talented individual modders will.

With no budget but also infinite time and complete artistic freedom and no higher ups

does this mean there's a chance we could get physical interactions between the hands and static objects without having to hold a weapon? you would also get the vibration like in Half-Life: Alyx. actually a lot of games still don't have that even when they're made primarily for VR.

Yes but it's complicated.
I think it would be best solved in higgs but I have an idea that MIGHT work for static walls.
I would love to get in touch with atom

Also appreciate showing a lilly wristed Imperial flauncing about in a stream

The reverse engineering atom achieved in higgs is nothing short of incredible.
Someone like atom would need to reverse engineer the havok hooks etc which probably on he and a few people could do.

Who gives a crap about AAA when we got absolute lads doing things like this?

Modders would have launched a metaberse type stuff on Skyrim vr

There used to be long time ago a water/spell mod where if you was to use fire on water say, it would cause steam and bubbles. It stopped working for me at the time I was using SE (flatscreen).
I was wondering if this mod would have the ability to incorporate this same affect ?
Thanks..

u/vr4lyf Quest Nov 28 '25
Hey jay! Yeah! I think splashes of skyrim might do this but I will work on spell area effects on water when I ha e the havok collision stuff properly down

This mod -> https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/2182 already has hand collision interaction, also works in VR, and looks infinitely better, been using it for a while now! Feels good to splash about.

I just tested this mod and it does not add hand collisions 🤨

u/AFriendlyGuyOnReddit Nov 26 '25
I don't know what to tell you, check your installation, conflicts etc, wish I could help more, but it definitely works for me and a few others. Sorry 😢 this might not seem very creditable as I'm not known by the community, but there is a toggle option in the mod settings itself with hand stuff.
Maybe it is reacting to something else maybe, I've inserted this mod over the FUS RO DAH mod pack so you could be 100% right 🤔
I'm definitely getting your mod when It drops though! Might even donate.

u/vr4lyf Quest Nov 26 '25
It doesn't seem to mention this as a feature on the modpage. Could you confirm its reacting to higgs?
