How to use SteamVR with Oculus Go

on
SteamVR allows you to play steam games that support virtual reality and you can use it with the oculus Go thanks to ALVR by developer polygraphene on GitHub 

Download the windows installer and the apk file

Sideload the apk onto your oculus Go

Tip: if you're having trouble connecting your headset, try allowing the UDP port 9944 in your firewall settings

Launch ALVR on your PC and then launch the ALVR app on your headset and wait for it to connect 

One of the caveats with the oculus Go is you'll need to start the game directly on your PC via it's desktop shortcut. 



I still haven't tested my gamesir wireless controller. If you have any luck let us know in the comments
