ECHOES

Echoes is a Python made software by MilkyBoiVR which is created to easily launch instances of the shut-down VR game Echo VR. Being known as one of the best VR eSport games and Oculus Originals, the community felt inspired enough to modify Echo VR in order to allow players to play Echo VR offline despite the shutdown of the Echo VR servers in 2023 after the decision made by Meta VR (formerly known as Oculus) to no longer run the game.

Features

• Automatically closes Echo VR and re-opens
• Launch your game in under 5 seconds
• Built in presets including 3v3 Bots, Private, Social Lobby, Combat
• Custom builder using the dropdown menu, you only have to select the level and gametype
• Automatically runs behaviours for you so you don't have to type them yourself

FAQ

Is this a way to play offline Echo VR?

While this isn't offline Echo VR (which can be downloaded), this software can support users in launching Echo VR with the required arguments using built in pre-sets ready for you to click and use straight away, as well as an easy to use builder so users can launch whatever level and gametype they want.

Does this work with Quest?

Unfortunately not, since there is only a PCVR version of Offline Echo VR, this software will not run on Quest. People say making Offline/Online Echo VR for Quest is really difficult, so chances are there will not be Offline Echo VR for Quest.

Can I play online?

At this moment in time you cannot play online Echo VR, this is just a support tool to save people time in trying to start Echo VR.

Does this work through Revive on Steam?

After some very small testing with some users, it is best to say that Offline Echo VR or Echoes does not work through Revive on steam.

Do you need the version before the farewell message?

You do need the version of Echo VR before the "Farewell Message".

It says "pip isnt recognised as an internal or external command"

If you get this error then this means that you either don't have Python installed or that you don't have Python installed to your PATH (in which I recommend running the python setup file to uninstall python and running it again and making sure you tick the box that install python to your PATH).

It still says the farewell message, I did everything the exact same way you did?

Check your files and make sure you have the proper version of Echo VR needed to run Offline Echo VR. This is not an error with Echoes and is an error with your installation process with Offline Echo VR, the tutorial linked with Echo VR does go how to install the .dll files in terms of Offline Echo VR (but you will need a working build).
