Thank you for supporting us during Early Access! We hear you loud and clear on adding new games and that is our #1 priority. We’ll have an update on new games with our next release. We update the app every two weeks, so please continue to let us know what you think and what games you’d like to see! We promise more games are coming, and soon.
Thanks to everyone who submitted bug reports since we launched a couple weeks ago; you helped us squash a bunch of them.
Below are all of the updates we’ve made since our last release and current known issues. For questions, or to request access to make content with Vreal, head over to
support.vreal.net.
Updates:- Party time! Excellent! We fixed a bunch of bugs for watching content together in a party. Thanks to everyone who submitted bug reports!
- The Vreal app now asks you if you *really* want to unfriend someone when you try to unfriend them, you heartless person.
- A few tooltips went rogue. They have all been corralled back to their assigned pens.
Known Issues:- An updated list of known issues can be found on our user wiki, here.
General:- Vreal is not yet optimized for disk usage or bandwidth consumption. If you are bandwidth or disk space challenged, you may wish to wait for our 1.0 release.
Viewing:- Opening Vreal in the SteamVR dashboard using a Vive Pro will crash the app.
- Streams will occasionally auto-launch without prompt. This can occur for a number of reasons, but we're aware of it.
- Stream will occasionally display odd behavior while watching - it may speed up, slow down, or sometimes take a long time to load and then catch up later on.
Parties:- Pausing while in a party can cause a desync between party members viewing that experience. Ex: One member could be 5:00 into the recording while another could be 4:30 into the recording.
- The 5th member in a party is sometimes unable to communicate with other party members via voice chat.
- After watching one recording in a party, the leader will see a message that other party members need to download content. This message is incorrect and the recording should still launch regardless.
- Game audio can occasionally stop working if multiple members have been paused/unpaused.
Vreal App:- The Vreal app occasionally launches with just a black screen. If this lasts more than 10 seconds, relaunch the app.
- The Vreal app does not scale to full screen.
- App performance is poor on 4K monitor.
- The app does not load if there is no internet connection.
- If you unfriend someone, you will not be able to go back and add them as a friend.
Content creation:- Previously unpublished/deleted content still displays in the dashboard and on the Watch/Home pages of the app. (These will not be visible by other people, and are only visible for the content creator)
- Recording 2D content using cameras in Arizona Sunshine can cause performance issues.
