DOOM VFR FULL LOCOMOTION FIX For OCULUS! // Oculus + Touch // 90 FPS // GTX 1060 (6GB)
38MASSIVE THANKS to 'SpeakeasyArcade' on The Oculus Subreddit for finding this FIX!
ALSO Sweviver found a FIX for the Vive version ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kG3YLB3a9G0 ) Unfortunately Sweiver's FIX does not work with the Oculus at the time of this video, so use the top method above.
Link to the FIX here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/oculus/comments/7h6nva/smooth_locomotion_in_doomvfr_for_rift_i_scripted/
FIX INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Download and install AutoHotKey from https://autohotkey.com/
2. Download this zip file: DoomVFR_SmoothLoc.zip
3. Unzip it wherever you want and make sure that the .dll file inside and the .ahk file are in the same folder (they really like each other a lot).
4. Double click on the DoomVFR_Oculus.ahk file. This starts the process that links the Oculus Touch Controllers to the predefined keyboard inputs I specified. If you didn't have Oculus Home running already, this script will start it.
You can check if the script is actually working by opening up a notepad and moving the left thumbstick and right thumbstick around and hitting the A and X buttons. You should see W,A,S,D,U,O,P writing in notepad corresponding with the stick/buttons pushed.
5. Moment of truth. When you put on your headset you will most likely see a giant H icon. That's the AutoHotKey program luanched in oculus...just quit it using the system button on the right oculus touch controller and click exit app. It will say stuff at you, just tell it to quit and go away, scram kid. Now go ahead and open Steam through oculus or the desktop and start DoomVFR
6. So, go ahead and start a game. If you aren't getting movement with the left-stick double check that DOOM VFR is the active window in windows. Try alt-tabbing out and then clicking on the Doom icon on your taskbar. If all is well you should be sliding galantly all over the place with the left thumbstick. Clicking the stick in still activates teleporting and pushing a direction and clicking at the same time still activates a quick dash in that direction. If that is all hunky dory and you want more...we can continue on to enabling 180 turning and smooth turning with the right thumbstick.

My Initial Thoughts:
The minimum recommended specs for this game is a GTX 1070, however I had no issues running it on my GTX 1060. The game will default ALL options to low but it still looks cool and it never dropped below 90 FPS.
Teleporting was OK but I'm not a fan of the dash-movement. This is a 2-phase movement which involves holding the thumbstick in the direction you want to move, then pressing down on the thumbstick. It got very confusing in the heat of battle and I would have much preferred full locomotion instead. I hope the developers add full locomotion. ALSO I had major issues having 2 front facing sensors...Upon losing tracking by turning around strange things would start to happen. My weapons and hands would start to point at strange angles.
The ability to turn and face your sensors using your thumbsticks to turn is a must for those of us with 2 front facing sensors.
I did a 2 Sensor - 360 test and the game worked 99% better tracking wise: (Video of the test here)
