Rising of Evil - RE4 VR (Quest)

Rising of Evil is now for the first time fully playable in VR for the Quest VR headsets!🦎

All of the stronger enemies and crazy encounters, custom (generally more hidden) triggers, ammo drops etc are all how you remember them from the original Rising of Evil mod!

LIFE IN HELL for VR (Easier & Less confusing progression wise than Rising)

RE4 VR MOD PACK (If you want to customize Mods inside OBBs)

Installation Process:

TLDR:
1. Quest plugged to PC, grab the Main OBB
2. unzip the Main OBB
3. place .pak files inside ~mods folder next to the original big .paks
4. you then ZIP from VR4 without compression using the original OBB name & format
5. Send the newly zipped OBB into your Quest!

Things I recommend first:

1. Quest Link Cable to be able to transfer files between the Quest and your PC. Once you plug your Quest to your PC, you will need to allow access to files first through the big popup or under notifications.

2. Developer mode on for Quest (Not sure if it's 100% needed for simple OBB modding but still, I just always had it on so it's worth mentioning


For the OBB, "main.203.com.Armature.VR4.obb" is the one we're now interested in! Grab it from your RE4 VR copy installed on your Quest!


You will find the OBBs in your Quest Internal Shared Storage, then "Android", then "OBB", then finally inside "com.Armature.VR4"
Transfer the OBB wherever you want on your PC!

You can then unzip the OBB easily with 7zip without doing anything too specific


You should then have a folder called VR4 after the OBB is unzipped, go inside, then Content, then Paks,

You can then place the .pak file inside a folder called "~mods" like this:

OBBS CANNOT BE ABOVE 3,99 GB in the properties and/or once inside the Quest

And this is why you do this now INSIDE THE MAIN OBB!

Now about zipping all this back into an OBB:

1. You right click the folder VR4, under 7-Zip you select "Add to Archive"

2. You rename "VR4.zip" to "main.203.com.Armature.VR4.obb"

3. You then NEED to choose archive format as ".zip" and Compression level to "0 - Store"

All exactly like this:

After it's done, you may transfer the newly zipped OBB where you got the original one inside your Quest, and replace the old one!

Includes:

• All of the custom ROE gun firing sounds!

• Extreme Condition enemy voices!

• Custom soundtrack from ROE!

• New Thick Grey Fog for the entire game! (Feel free to also increase the Contrast in the ingame video settings, I personally had that set to around 50 while using the new grey fog!)

• Many new skins to improve the VR version's visuals and/or spice things up!

Things you should still know even if you've already played Rising before:

• Roomscale is recommended just for the general gameplay style, to reach some specific items and grab them, and especially for some areas like at the end of Krauser's fight, with the statues needing to be moved in a specific order. Need to physically move to reach some of the specific statue obstacles for example

• Human Saddler enemy had to be removed from Luis death room in the lower level (Since SW was sadly never included in RE4 VR and he's just invisible in VR)

• Ashley's two areas had to be blocked when you try to return to them as Leon because in VR they wipe your entire inventory as Leon (thanks Armature...). You are simply given the third Ornament piece for free in Luis's death room, you'll find it easily don't worry!

• Extra item stacking for health/grenades or 10 to 20 Magnum ammo isn't a thing anymore due to no possible UHD exe/dll style modding for VR outside the APK (which I won't go into details here)
• The Merchant no longer has the Largest Attaché Case at the beginning of New Game in the Farm (So you'll have to sell some guns at specific points and/or rebuy them later and do more item management in between it all, but in VR everything is way easier and more forgiving, so if you play well and know what you're doing this is fine!)

Some advices if you're NEW to Rising:

• DO NOT let enemies fall to their deaths outside of playable areas! Enemies will usually drop KEY items NEEDED to progress! So kill every enemies you can and make sure none ever fall out of bounds!

• Save your Rifle ammo for Novistadors, and absolutely always headshot the Novistadors with the rifle, feel free to bait them into letting you doing a kick so you can get easy headshots on them
• Gigantes with extra accessories on them usually have way, way more health and should absolutely be hit with a direct RPG shot
  
  
• Once you get the Magnum, you need to save as much Magnum ammo as possible and always line up shots between mutliple stronger enemies
  
  
• Do not feel bad for being confused at times where some triggers, secret items, item drops etc are and feel free to watch 2D playthroughs of the mod or the official guide on the Extreme Condition Youtube channel
  
  
• Always save whenever you get the chance to and save on different slots!
  
  
• Use your TMP or other methods to aggro potential enemies in new rooms before entering them, you never know what might be waiting behind the next door!
  
  
• It's also okay to skip some enemies here and there, if you dont think they drop anything useful or aren't worth your time for whatever reason it might be!
  
  
• The Bolt Action Rifle is one weapon I never sold in my VR playthrough, it's not very big it does a lot of damage once fully upgraded, you do not need the Semi-Auto Rifle later on

I hope you guys will enjoy this new and exciting & more immersive way to play such a fun, crazy and sometimes BS RE4 mod by Luis Webber!
