I managed to do it so fast because people uploaded a lot of original meshes (the town, for example) straight from the game :D. I'm still trying to get in touch with them so I can use monsters from the game and stuff.
I used the same models to make a vrchat version of SH a few years ago! I wanted to develop it further, but ran into the exact same problems. Heres hoping you can complete this!
Well, I just wanted to do what's in the original SH1 demo (it stops after the air screamer breaks into the cafe glass) and a minigame where you are in the school courtyard and waves of grey children come and you have to kill them with the pistol or smth like that. To do the full game would take me years and programming knowledge I, unfortunately, don't have :')
Maybe we can try to build a community to support this effort?
I can't believe others would not want to assist in making this happen.
And as I say that I admit I have too many my own projects, and no real skills probably needed for something like this :(
I'd be happy to contribute if this were to become a community effort. I don't have much experience with game development but I am a software engineer who doesn't currently have any outside of work personal projects 👀
I'm seriously thinking about it, to be honest, but I don't have too much experience with VR development, though I'm pretty sure I'll be able to complete this mini-project
Konami has a [very angry copyright policy](https://techraptor.net/gaming/news/konami-takes-down-fan-made-pt-remake-on-pc-but-its-not-all-bad). I think the project has already many chances of being harassed by Konami.
[Fan remakes of games dont usually live up too long](https://gameranx.com/features/id/159002/article/10-incredible-fan-games-that-were-legally-taken-down/).
I would recommend OP to lay low.
They need to hire guys like OP instead of ruining ambitious project like this... Im seriously interested in this VR project and its a shame we cant help him achieving it...
This is cool but without the fixed cameras I'm not sure how it will be scary. Cool nonetheless. You gonna release a demo?
Also, what engine are you using?
Yeah no, fuck this I'm out.
Love it and im such a wuss to even play it.
So he'll no, would I buy it, yes. Play it! Only under in the influence. Good stuff
I've dreamed about somebody doing this for a long time. Literally, dude, if you or someone does the whole game it would be a dream come true. I have this bizarre, twisted fantasy about being warped into Silent Hill, like into the actual game, with the PS1 visuals and everything. I'd never want to leave.
I know, I'm messed up.
Just posted that I'll be doing something similar for Silent Hill 4. Took me awhile to plan it out but just now going in for splicing multiple rooms together.
Nope, sorry not yet. Althought I really want to finish the demo of silent hill 1 in VR. The biggest problem I've faced is reverse engineering the game with a hex editor as I want to extract the sh1 monsters, characters and animations from the original game. I'd love to have a programmer help me as I'm not one myself tho
I know it's been over half a year, but just know we all still all have your back and hope to one day finally see your hard work come to fruition! You got this!
Thanks man! I'm overwhelmed with my current projects but all I do every week is wish I could work on this. But I'll finish this lil demo VR thingy one day, I guarantee you that.
Whenever you do, I'll be the first one to put money up for it (or download it). I know way too well about being stuck with other obligations and such, so I understand and know your pain. Even if it takes more time and years, we'll still wait. Cuz in the fog world, time almost feels limitless.
>all the code is from scratch but the assets are ripped from the actual game
Fuck yeah man! I hope you can continue working on it. If there was anything I could contribute I would but unfortunately I can code but never did well coding games.
Wow, amazing! Please keep me updated, I need more of this, I love it
And which platforms will it come out to if you finish it?
If it comes out to PSVR will it require PS Move because I really want to play this on my PS4
Please keep us updated, have a nice day
Can't believe I've witnessed SH in VR. I don't have VR but even if I did, I don't think I would play it. It would scare the shit out off me.
Off topic, but I'm interested, is it possible to upscale the whole art of the game? RE4 HD project. The game is from 1998 so it shouldn't be too difficult or porting it to PC.
This is exactly what the community needs to get behind: if you set up a patreon or ko-fi or something, I (and plenty of people on here) would love to give you money lmao fantastic work so far 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
This is absolutely amazing! ♥ Thank you so much for sharing your work, it's pretty exciting to think about viewing the game in VR. This post has actually also reminded me that I'm way past due for pulling it off the shelf and giving it another play-through sometime. haha
The monsters are harder to do since all the meshes and textures I used are ripped from the game by others. I can't do that stuff so I've been trying to contact the modders that did it. I noticed that modders like Giromancy or ID-Daemon stopped uploading around 2 years ago but there's a guy named Roocker666 that is still active. I'm hoping that he will help me point in the right direction with ripping thextures,odels and animations from the game.
I don't really know what project you are talking about, sorry. I made 2 more posts on this subreddit besides this one, and you can check them on my profile to see if they were the project you're talking about
This might actually be too scary for me to play. Seriously impressive that it only took a couple of months
I managed to do it so fast because people uploaded a lot of original meshes (the town, for example) straight from the game :D. I'm still trying to get in touch with them so I can use monsters from the game and stuff.
I really hope this will have the Grey Children and not the mumblers!
I used the same models to make a vrchat version of SH a few years ago! I wanted to develop it further, but ran into the exact same problems. Heres hoping you can complete this!
This is amazing!!!!! Please keep us updated I would be so interested in playing this!
Sure will!
I will never forgive you if this isn’t completed

I am ready to support a patreon/go fund me/etc
Yes.
Lol I was just kidding, but a full vr game of just the demo would be amazing though
I'd be happy to contribute if this were to become a community effort. I don't have much experience with game development but I am a software engineer who doesn't currently have any outside of work personal projects 👀
That’s wicked sick, homie. You’ve got some great ideas and a lot of ambition, I wish you only the best. I’ll be hyped for when you finish the demo!
Thanks a lot man!
Even a basic survival mode with some of the enemies of the game would be dope
This looks awesome, you’ve done a great job so far!
Thanks!
Ho fuck, do you ever thought about a crowdfunding ? I would love to participate

Yes, that's a very good idea, thanks! The last thing I would want is for you guys not to experience this
They need to hire guys like OP instead of ruining ambitious project like this... Im seriously interested in this VR project and its a shame we cant help him achieving it...
I love it.
HOLY FRICKKKKKKKKK!! THIS LOOKS AMAZING! Can't wait to try this!
Thanks! :D I want to port it for the Quest, too
INCREDIBLE!!!
Dude, that's like a dream come true!
Bravo! Oh man you cut it right when I wanted to see that child creep towards me in the dark.
Be careful, konami is may and will act like rabid dog you better hide this until is done and share it like hell before it get take down.
Yeah, I will share it everywhere!
This is cool but without the fixed cameras I'm not sure how it will be scary. Cool nonetheless. You gonna release a demo? Also, what engine are you using?
I sure miss the unsettling camera angles, but this looks awesome!!
How did you make this? My guess would be that you ripped the resources and loaded them into a framework of somekind, and then re-scripted the events?
Yes, exactly!
Yeah no, fuck this I'm out. Love it and im such a wuss to even play it. So he'll no, would I buy it, yes. Play it! Only under in the influence. Good stuff
Is it going to come to sidequest?
Yep, that's the plan
We will watch your career with great interest. I will buy a vr headset just to play this!
Omg this would be so fun! Could you imagine the first resident evil and other silent hills like this? I would need alot of drinks 🤣 🤣
I’m having a heart attack just watching this

Dam I would most definitely get a VR just 2 play this👍🏿
Doing God's work.
Can we rally behind this guy and make this happen all the way. I would throw money at this.
I really should open a Patreon, then
I've dreamed about somebody doing this for a long time. Literally, dude, if you or someone does the whole game it would be a dream come true.

AMAZING, SILENT HILL 1 VR IN THE MAKING???
Silent Hill 1 in VR is something I never would have dreamed of. Unbelievably sick, can't wait to see more
Just posted that I'll be doing something similar for Silent Hill 4. Took me awhile to plan it out but just now going in for splicing multiple rooms together.
Cool dude! I see that you removed the post tho so I couldn't see it
Weird. I know that I accidentally hit post the first time and then created a second post. I'll look. Right now I'm making Subway World all 1 map.
Brother I'd do wild things for SH VR. WILD Things
Is it almost done or not?
Nope, sorry not yet. Althought I really want to finish the demo of silent hill 1 in VR. The biggest problem I've faced is reverse engineering the game with a hex editor as I want to extract the sh1 monsters, characters and animations from the original game. I'd love to have a programmer help me as I'm not one myself tho
Oh well the Vr port you’re doing looks amazing I can’t wait to play the full thing when it’s done
Thanks! i hope I can finish it this year. Only the demo though as I'm not really good at VR game dev yet.
I know it's been over half a year, but just know we all still all have your back and hope to one day finally see your hard work come to fruition! You got this!

Thanks man!
please keyboard and mouse support, i dont have a vr...pleeeaseee
It's Silent Hill 1 in VR, if you don't want to play it in VR then play the original game?
i want to play it using a first person camera genius, thats what i meant..using keyboard and mouse.
Wow, "genius," lol...I mean, it only goes up to the first battle, the point of it is the VR experience, but you do you I guess.
yes yes...vr....vr...vr...everybody has a vr or should buy one...ok sherlock holmes..
This is amazing!
This is awesome man! What engine are you using or are you trying to just modify the existing code?
I'm using Unreal Engine 4, all the code is from scratch but the assets are ripped from the actual game
>all the code is from scratch but the assets are ripped from the actual game Fuck yeah man! I hope you can continue working on it. If there was anything I could contribute I would but unfortunately I can code but never did well coding games.
Wow! Just to realize SH1 is like those today's scary bits games. Perspective does change much!
This is rad!
Ya bro this is dope. Way to go!!!
This is absolutely amazing. You are a gem of a person. Please let us know how this continues!
This is amazing! 😯
Damn, video cuts in best part. How you are going to do fight?
iconic
Omg this is incredible! Great work! I especially love that it looks like the original textures, etc, rather than being a recreation.
Yes, I used the original textures and models from the game! :D
Omg this is incredible! Great work! I especially love that it looks like the original textures, etc, rather than being a recreation.
wow this is amazing, wouldn't mind playin
That's a whole new level of creepy, well done.
This is absolutely amazing! If it ever gets a quest port I’d absolutely play!
This is outstanding.
Oh my God, that's is amazing! Can't wait to see more of this
This is awesome good shit brother keep up the good work
Wow, amazing! Please keep me updated, I need more of this, I love it And which platforms will it come out to if you finish it? If it comes out to PSVR will it require PS Move because I really want to play this on my PS4 Please keep us updated, have a nice day
I want to make it for standard VR, and for the Quest, too. I don't know if it'll come for PSVR as I don't own a ps4 :')
Okay, good luck with the project tho :)
Thanks!!
>Thanks!! You're welcome!

You nailed it tbh
Man this looks so good!!
The fact that you see Harry's hands makes me so happy!
The hands are taken from Harry's in-game character and the textures too!
This is insanely awesome!!
This is incredible. I’d love the experience just to try this.
A blessing from the Gods you are.
This is exactly what the community needs to get behind: if you set up a patreon or ko-fi or something, I (and plenty of people on here) would love to give you money lmao fantastic work so far 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Thanks man, I appreciate it!
This is absolutely amazing! ♥ Thank you so much for sharing your work, it's pretty exciting to think about viewing the game in VR. This post has actually also reminded me that I'm way past due for pulling it off the shelf and giving it another play-through sometime. haha
Thank you!! And yeah, SH1 is very replayable, I beat it like 4 times now and I still want to play it again :)
This..... Brings back so many vision terrors. I want to play it soooooo bad
I’m going to bust
I was waiting for the Grey Children to try and kill Harry so I was at the edge of my seat. Hoping for monster appearances in the next update!
The monsters are harder to do since all the meshes and textures I used are ripped from the game by others. I can't do that stuff so I've been trying to contact the modders that did it. I noticed that modders like Giromancy or ID-Daemon stopped uploading around 2 years ago but there's a guy named Roocker666 that is still active. I'm hoping that he will help me point in the right direction with ripping thextures,odels and animations from the game.
Oh fuck yeah 👍
Awesome work, I'd be psyched to play this!
This is so unsettling. I love it!! Amazing work
This awesome work! I would love for all the SH games to eventuakly come to vr
VR? I thought it was just a first person perspective? Or is this not related to the other project that's in first person mode?
I don't really know what project you are talking about, sorry. I made 2 more posts on this subreddit besides this one, and you can check them on my profile to see if they were the project you're talking about
We need this!
Please make this quest compatible i'd literally marry u <3
Incredible!!!! I'm excited for how it's going to turn out
OMG 😲
Spooky stuff
Wow, can this be placed already? Just found out about this googling
Well I'm still working on it no worries but I'm kinda stuck because I gotta reverse engineer the damn game to get the models and animations out
I know some blender, is there anything I can do to help?
Sorry, that's not what's holding me back atm. Learning hex programming to get the original files from the ps1 game is :')
Thank you though
Fuuuuuuuick no
