Notes
Native OpenXR VR for the original Painkiller and its Battle Out of Hell expansion: stereo 3D with head tracking, weapons aimed with the right controller with a laser sight, and a full Touch controller layout for moving, turning, jumping, weapon switching, zoom, flashlight and Golden Cards. Dev's page: tested on Quest 2 over Virtual Desktop; other OpenXR headsets and runtimes are expected to work. Works alongside mods that leave the game's executable files alone.
