Adjust Your Settings

You can adjust various settings in Overte so that it runs to your preferences. Many of these settings are changed using the HUD (in Desktop mode) or Tablet (in VR mode).

The Tablet and HUD

In VR, all of your settings are found in your Tablet. The Tablet also gives you easy access to any apps that you install. Pull up the tablet by clicking the menu button on your controller.

In Desktop Mode, you have the option to use either the Tablet or a smaller version called the "Heads-up Display" or HUD. It contains the exact same options as the Tablet (settings, apps, etc), but it takes up less space on your screen. To enable the HUD, first enable the Developer menu by going to Settings > Developer Menu. Then, go to Developer > UI > Desktop Tablet Becomes Toolbar.

Enter or Exit VR Mode

You can enjoy Overte with or with VR equipment such as head mounted displays (HMD), hand controllers and audio headsets. Our Desktop mode contains many of Overte's features such as audio, basic movements and gestures, and the ability to travel to different domains.

Keep in mind, however, that the most immersive and powerful experience is when you use VR equipment. Only then will you be able to interact with people in 3D, track body movements, and easily engage with the objects around you. Once you have set up your VR equipment, you can easily switch between VR mode and Desktop mode. To switch to VR mode, use one of the following methods:

  1. From the HUD, click Enter VR.

  2. Click the Display menu, then select your VR device.

To exit from VR mode, remove your headset, click Exit VR on the HUD or press ESC on your keyboard.

Set Your Perspective

You can choose how you view things around you by changing your perspective. To change your perspective:

Graphics Settings

Choose the graphics settings for your computer tier. In general, a lower graphics setting sacrifices artistic details and rendering effects for increased performance and optimization. Custom lets you configure the world detail, rendering effects, refresh rate, and resolution yourself.

World Detail

Rendering Effects

Choose the level of rendering effects that are present in Overte. Local lights, fog, bloom, and shadows are all examples of rendering effects.

Refresh Rate

Choose the frequency that Overte updates its graphics buffers. Most mid-range computers run well on 'Interactive'.

Resolution

Account Security Settings
