Welcome to the RebornRec wiki! This is still a work in progress, so expect a not finished wiki!

Get Started with Installing RebornRec

Q&A

What builds support Screen Mode?

Any build that is July 2018 and newer has Screen Mode support. Some builds during May and June do allow for a trick where if you press both 8 and 7 on your keyboard, you can bypass the VR requirement and enter an in-dev version of Screen Mode.

If the controls don't work

Go to Steam, go to Rec Room's file location, rename the folder Rec Room is in to something else, uninstall it from Steam, (it won't uninstall it but pretend to), then restart SteamVR if you have it open, restart the build and it should work, when you want to play modern Rec Room again, rename it back to "RecRoom" and install it via Steam, which will bring it back.

For Valve Index/Meta Quest 3/3S users

If you're on a build and your controls seem to be forced to HTC Vive controls, go to Steam, go to SteamVR's properties, then betas, and select the "oculus_win7and8" beta for SteamVR, this should force your controls to Oculus controls, remember to switch back to no beta once you're done with old Rec Room.

If the server isn't responding at all (error code summer)

If the server isn't doing anything (check the server window) after opening a build, try ensuring the window title does not have "Select" in it, if it does, press enter on the server and see if it fixes it, if it doesn't fix it, make sure you opened a build that is patched for RebornRec and not any other server.

If the build tells you to install Rec Room from Steam

Make sure the folder that contains the build's exe contains a file named "steam_appid.txt" with "471710" written inside it, if not, create it and try again.

If none of these answered whatever question you have, consider going to the Discord server and make a post in #help explaining exactly what is going on, or searching if your question was answered already.
