For the purposes of this tutorial, we’ll be using Windows Explorer (or Finder, if you’re on a Mac).ġ. In Windows Explorer or Finder, navigate to the root folder of your Oculus Quest. You can stay in SideQuest and use SideQuest’s built-in File Explorer for the Quest, but we’ve found it is easier to your system’s File Explorer to copy files to your Quest. There are two ways to do the next step, which involves copying over the Half-Life files to your Quest. You still need to copy over the Half-Life files. However, the Lambda1VR app won’t work on its own. To check the progress of installation or ensure everything installed correctly, you can click on “Tasks” button on the top right, and if the app was downloaded and installed correctly, you will see a bar reading “APK file installed OK!!” Simply click on the listing, press “Install Latest” and SideQuest will do the rest. The Lambda1VR application will be available in the Games and Apps section. Install Lambda1VRĬonnect your Quest to your computer and open up SideQuest.

The Lambda1VR application itself won’t work without a copy of the Half-Life game files, which you’ll need to copy over from a computer that has the game installed.īefore proceeding, just make sure you have a copy of the original Half-Life game (not Half-Life 2 or Half-Life: Source) downloaded from Steam, on the same computer that you use SideQuest on. If you’ve followed everything up until that point, you can move on with the guide below.


For the purposes of installing Half-Life, you’ll want to follow the sideloading guide right up until the “Sideloading content from the SideQuest store page” section. If you haven’t sideloaded anything before, or don’t even know what that means, check out our guide on how to sideload content on the Oculus Quest. If you’ve sideloaded content via SideQuest before, then you can move onto the next section. In order to install Lambda1VR and Half-Life on your Quest, you will need to be familiar with sideloading content on your Quest and make sure your Quest is also in developer mode.
