For those planning on enjoying Alyx with the Index in March 2020, be careful not to plan for too long, lol - time may be running out ;)

UploadVR just wrote an article:

"Valve Index Full Kit Backorders Approach Half-Life: Alyx Release Window"

Read it here: https://uploadvr.com/valve-index-alyx-february/

May I suggest some nice background music when reading the article?

Maybe a small forgotten gem that needs more attention? The game does smell quite Valve-ish :D - it works on Index, Rift and Vive:

Thanks for that mate. I just tried the Steam demo and it works great with my Rift cv1 w/2x sensors and 2.0 SS. I had a hard time figuring out how to use grenades though (pull the pin first idiot, lol!). I'll probably pick this up from steam since like you say it has Oculus driver support (and is a couple of dollars cheaper as well). Plus it gives me more headset options later, without the need for Revive.

Unfortunately it no longer supports Vive controllers because the developer said that the Vive trackpads were too inconsistent. Guess I'll need to wait for Index controllers to become available down-under to try this with my Vive Pro, lol! Might work with my Cosmos though? I'll give it a go later. Thanks again mate.

Edit; Almost works ok with my Cosmos, but not quite right. I'm pretty sure the developer could fix this. Actually looks fantastic with my Cosmos btw.

Close, but no cigar... I installed the patch and still got the old warning that my controllers were not supported. Using desktop view I could start the game - had to choose VR mode with a mouse click, but Index controllers were dead. Got an image in solid 90 fps in the Index though (maybe the Steam controller would work, but I really like to get Index controller support). I've informed the devs.
Game works perfectly using CV1 ss 2.0 though - it has native Oculus driver support, you can just launch it from Oculus Home. It's by far my favorite VR racing shooter (if there's a thing like that) - much better than Thumper ;)
I think Polybius Index res 200%@144Hz probably would be totally like:

Does anyone know a way to make Index work with Alien: Isolation VR mod (Mother VR)? I tried it out yesterday, but it stubbornly professes that it can't find an Oculus headset plugged in

I had to make a shortcut from the Alien Isolation exe, and run it from the shortcut. I tried everything before that worked. You can also go back a version if nothing works for you.

Unfortunately nothing seems to help. No idea why that might even make the dif, but I tried the shortcut method too. Same result:
