Haptic feedback, passthrough AR porn improvements and NEW Christmas environment in SLR v13.5!
Just in time for Christmas, there's a new update for SLR, with plenty of exciting new features and useful improvements. Read on for more details.
This latest update is available for SLR on the Quest and Windows PCVR. Access SLR through the DeoVR app (enter sexlikereal.com in the browser window) to find all these improvements. Please note: DeoVR for the Pico 4 is now available. You can install the DeoVR app onto your Pico 4 natively and access all the great SLR features there too.
So what's new? Along with some necessary bug fixes, there are three major new features and a number of improvements:
New Features for v13.5
An exciting and fun new feature is a new virtual environment for Christmas so you can make the most of the festive feel while enjoying the very best in adult VR content. The app will automatically switch to it if you have the default (black) background, otherwise, you can find it inside Global Settings under Personalize - simply select Christmas 2022.
The Meta Quest Pro is now fully supported, which is great news for all you users of possibly the best VR headset on the market today. (Update: Quest 3 takes the crown in 2024)
Haptic feedback makes everything feel better and more responsive, and now you'll find haptic feedback in action on your controllers when hovering over buttons, sliders and scrollbars (please note: this is not yet active for the Pico or HTC Vive headsets). You can disable haptic feedback inside Global Settings under Player. Simply switch the Controllers vibration switch to off.
Improvements for v13.5
There are also a number of small but important improvements, most notably to the chroma key when using the passthrough feature.
- Chroma key/passthrough AR porn:
- The color range slider is now less sensitive
- The color box is now visible when dragging sliders
- Improved performance when using the color wheel
- An icon has been added to thumbnails on the hub so users can easily see which videos have passthrough AR porn configured
Other improvements:
- H265 is now the default codec on PICO devices
- Build-Your-Own-Journey (BYOJ) now ignores empty jumps
- The quality and encoding dropdown menu is now hidden when playing videos that do not support it
- Virtual environments are no longer affected by software re-centering

Version 13.4:
New Features
Build Your Own Journey (BYOJ)
This is a new way to make interactive videos in VR, similar to the Choose Your Own Adventure story books. With BYOJ you can use any SLR videos and combine them in a way that works best for you. It opens up endless possibilities, allowing you to make your own compilations, stories or remixes. Go here for more information.
Passthrough support for the Pico Neo 3
Now you can try out the hugely popular passthrough feature on your Pico VR headset. Enable passthrough in Player Options under the Passthrough panel.
Combine multiple filters when using search
When you apply a filter via search, a '+ Add' button will appear next to the filter you're looking for, allowing you to add more filters, so you can finetune your search to find the precise content you’re looking for.
Improvements
The SLR devs have also made some important improvements to existing features:
Chroma key/passthrough
- Added a color wheel to make it easier to choose colors instead of using sliders
- Changed the Color Range option’s maximum value from 100 to 1000 for more precision
- Renamed Opacity to Falloff and changed the maximum value from 100 to 1000 for added precision
- Please note: the chroma key algorithm has been changed, so a previous configuration might look different now
Playlists
- Added the option to Shuffle playlists
- Added the options to Loop playlists, including your Favorites, Watch Later and custom playlists
- The Suggested playlist list will be active by default
- Selecting a playlist will automatically play the first video in it
- Changed browser engine from Gecko to Chrome on Android devices
