Update GTAV:
if there is an update. There doesnt seem to be a way to stop the game from updating itself sadly.
Downgrade GTA V Version:
In order to get the mod to work we need to downgrade the game to a version that worked with the mod before as newer version do not work the mod.
The below video has a link to a GTA V 1.0.262161.1 archive that has the files you need to downgrade.
Video Guide;
Then we can downgrade the game version to work with the mod.

Note:
Every time GTA V is updated it will break the VR mod and you will have to redo this process. Ensure you are using the mod in story mod and NOT online mod.
Every time i would put on the Quest 2 VR headset in game and in the Oculus home screen would lag down to 8fps.
It would do this every time i put on the headset when it was linked up via a USB 3.0 cable. The headset had no problems with any other game and the game ran fine when in non VR mode. The PC was Windows 10 fully updated with drivers and updates.
So i tried everything i could think of to fix this problem and it was alot.
Latest BETA Oculus Software
Latest BETA Graphics Card Drivers
Uninstall & Reinstall of Graphics cards with clean install and DDU
Lowering graphics settings in game
Windows 11
Complete Reinstall of Windows 10
Oculus Tray Tool
Power Plan settings
The reinstall: This was where most PC problems get resolved and at first when i booted the game up up with a brand new Windows 10 install the game ran fine in VR.
Then i thought the problem was fixed so as i began reinstalling software like Steam,Visual Studio,Visual Code,Bit defender. The problem unexpectedly started happening again which was incredibly frustrating to say the least.
then i had an Eureka moment, the problem seemed to come back when i reinstalled Bit-defender. So i thought it must be interfering somehow with the game?
Exclusions:
I then fired up the Bit defender settings and added the folder where the game is installed to the Exclusion list of Bit defender.
After trying the game again with the new settings in Bit defender, the stuttering and loss of fps went away!
Resident Evil 7 on PC now has a VR Mod! This was one of the games on the PS4 that was awesome terrifying and give me motion sickness and made it unplayable on PS4 Vr.
The mod is very simple to install just extract it to the same folder as the game install location
So a few months ago i seen Amazon had a sale on the VR headset ive followed for years the Oculus Rift. It was cheaper than i had ever seen before so i ordered one.
Excitement for Flying in PC VR with Flight Simulator 2020: I cant begin to describe how excited i was to connect it to my PC in order to play Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, my entire reason for buying it. I had a PC capable of VR and Graphics card well up for the task.
Problems: When you connect the Oculus to your PC it does a check to see if everything is ok. You need to plug 1 cable into a USB 3.0 port (no problem I thought, I have loads! Then you plug the other cable into your Graphics card. The software checks to see if all is good.
The Test: I spent days searching for the problem and hoping there was a simple fix. I read post after post but nothing. i tried everything i read;
reinstall Oculus software
reinstall USB drivers
Motherboard driver
Update BIOS/settings
chipset drivers
USB 3 Ports: The motherboard i have has 4 USB 3 ports some of them 3.2 gen and above, shouldn’t be any problems!
The Fucking Red-Green Headset Sensor Check nightmare: Those two green checkmarks you get are great until they go red and you pull the cable out and reinsert and you get it green or red. This plug in and out bullshit fucking killed my interest in the headset.
Sensor cant track headset:Stuff of nightmares
Researching the problem: I knew or thought i did that somebody must know the reason for this because Oculus didnt. All the help they give is to disconnect the headset for 10 seconds and reconnect it. The number of times i did that.
The solution: There’s no way id have ever figured this out without reading a reddit post saying to buy a USB 3 self powered hub from amazon. it sounds so simple, I cant even remember how or why i found the post i did but if i remember right the person said they had the same problem i was mentioning.
