So. I can't play. A couple of problems. 1: I am all linux all the time. I won't load MS for this or anything. 2: I only have one eye. VR doesn't even get close to working for me.

Have fun.

Maybe it works without the VR gear. I don't have one either.

It works without vr gear aswell and it may also work on linux via steams built in emulation or wine if youcare to fiddle with it enough

Well then. It's not like I haven't fiddled with Wine before :) That makes me happy that I can play.

Hi BigTom. I'm sorry to hear about this. The event will be live streamed.

An alternative is spinning up an Amazon (or other) Ami with Windows and install AltspaceVR on that and run it of RDP remote desktop.

Here is a list of Linux clients:

That said.... AltspaceVR itself is nowadays partly owned by MS :P. I hope you can make it. Coming weeks i'll share a possible setup walkthrough on the HiveFest support pages @ https://hivefest.freshdesk.com
