Hi and thank you, for your very nice answer! It infact is nothing new.- You were always able to play games from VP using SteamVR and I like the Idea of officially labeling those games that work with a WMR supported tag, but it is kind of fishy to make users of one launcher install an competitioners launcher to make games on their platform work. Another thing is, it is a bad start, since you have around 600 titles on Viveport and there are around 90 that are marked as "working with wmr". Eaven some of your best games that support WMR are not marked as wmr supported games. (yet) This is a bad start, since interested people will check out the store and won't do that on a daily basis to see if new games are now marked as WMR.

Ok, looks like I missed a step.... You need to install SteamVR as mentioned in the instruction. Come on Viveport. How shady is that to make a customer install a competiotioners software to make games run, because your own software can't? Really, shame on you for this.

Hey there! Just out of curiosity I decided to give the new supported WMR functionality a try. Here is my Setup: Lenovo Explorer Win10 all set up and working great with games on Steam and with games on Viveport while SteamVR is installed But without SteamVR installed, I can launch the Viveport games but they will not trigger my HMD and just show up on my monitor. It will stay turned off and the WMR Portal will not launch. If I launch the WMR Portal before I start the Viveport game, I will just see the cliffhouse in the HMD and the game on my monitor. In both cases, it does not respond to moving my HMD. So the games do not hook into the HMD software. I followed the how to article on viveport and tried out 2 games that are listed as compatible with WMR on viveport. Both games work properly when having SteamVR turned on. And just to be safe, I tried running a game from the Microsoft store while SteamVR was uninstalled and it launched and played perfect. So just the Viveport games did not attach to the HMD. Since you officially support WMR now, it should totally be possible to run games on Viveport without having SteamVR installed - And the whole list of the currently 87 supported games would make no sense at all.
