Yes, there is latency. About rbdoom3 i saw a screenshot of it working in extended mode. But on direct mode crash. Maybe only works on extended mode.. no idea.

Btw, vive on linux is not evolving, nvidia driver vulkan beta with direct mode won't compile on kernel 4.10 without patching it manualy. They didn't update the driver patched, dunno why. That driver is a must to work with vive. Valve is updating steamVR but all patches are for windows, directX. Zero stuff for opengl, vulkan and linux. I'm glad to know that serious sam team is pushing it at their way. Thank you guys! :*

Quoting: slaapliedjeI wonder if they fixed the Steam Audio for Dyimg Light yet.

You have to tweak settings, or it says your microphone is making too much noise, and you will draw zombies toward you. Funny thing is, it isn't muting it, it is like the motherboard mic input has to be left at full volume, and you have to turn down the steam audio mic.

They fixed that, i was playing for 8 hours in a row with friend in coop, and it was the best experience i had with this game since i bought it. No problem with mic, solid 60 fps with max settings and zero network problems. Was really funny and perfect. We had to wait really long time but now game works perfect on multiplayer. Finally!

PD: btw, steam audio is not that. Steam audio is a new 3D audio, sounds that work with environment, raytracing, etc

2 weeks ago i was on a LAN party and we played all the following, and i was playing on linux without any kind of problem.
Well i had a problem with microphone, it was all time saying "your microphone is too loud it will call the zombies" and my microphone was unplugged and muted.

i compiled it on fedora, and it downloaded some submodules about vulkan. But i can't see Vulkan engine on the settings, just OpenGL.

Quoting: BeamboomIt would be great if one of you Vive-owners could give us a little report on the status on Linux as of now, both in regards to these games and the VR experience in general.
Is it matured enough for the rest of us to follow?

I would love to make that little report, but my english is very bad.

Is it matured enough? NO. A big no :D

First you need beta vulkan drivers of nvidia 375.27.15 that dont compile on kernel 4.10. I had to find in forums for a patch.
In first release of steamVR was totally broken. I was unable to pass the room configuration. After some updates i managed to configure everything and make it run. There was a huge latency that keep till today, not huge, but still some. When you move your head or your pads you feel it. It make some sick motion. Tutorial was totally broken also, today it's the first time i managed to run all the tutorial. We have just few games now, mainly serious sam, serious sam 2, dota and destinations. Destinations crash my computer after some seconds of running. Serious sam run with some glitches and crash after some minutes. I didn't test serious sam 2 and dota yet.

About perfomance, with my gtx 970 on serious sam i didnt had 90 fps, with my 1080 now runs smoothly. It means, you need to much power to run soomth anything you can run easy on windows.

It's all i can say atm.

Edit: i forgot i can't put sound to headset of the hmd on serious sam... -.-'
