**EDIT: You don't need SteamVR beta for Async reprojection anymore**
This guide works for both the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive VR headsets. The main difference between the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive for ATS and ETS2 VR setup is that you have to enter "-openvr" as a Steam launch option for the HTC Vive and "-oculus" as a Steam launch option for the Oculus Rift.
American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2 both share the same setup and optimization process for VR. You can copy/paste the config.cfg and controls.sii files between the two games to copy your VR settings and keybinding between games.
Setting up VR for American Truck Sim and Euro Truck Sim involves activating the VR beta from the "Beta" tab of American Truck Simulator or Euro Truck Simulator 2 properties in Steam. Then add "-openvr" or "-oculus" to the launch options in the "General" tab. This is all you need to do to activate VR for Euro Truck Simulator 2 or American Truck Simulator, but I also cover a lot of optimizations and tweaks for a better VR experience in this video.
The config and keybinding files can be found at these paths by default on a Windows 10 PC:
C:\Users\name\Documents\Euro Truck Simulator 2
C:\Users\name\Documents\American Truck Simulator
These are the relevant lines in the "config.cfg" file:
uset o_openvr_independent_timewarp "0"
uset o_openvr_interleaved_reproject "0"
*if these 2 lines aren't in the config, don't add them
uset r_manual_stereo_buffer_scale "1.8"
This is the relevant line in the "controls.sii" file for the "Reset HMD Orientation" hotkey:
config_lines[88]: "mix headreset ``"
