Technical
Why does the first launch take so long?
Why does the first launch take so long?
On first launch for each Minecraft version, QuestCraft must download all required game files. This process takes approximately 10 minutes depending on your internet connection speed. During the download, do not remove your headset — doing so may cause your display to sleep and interrupt the file transfer, requiring you to restart the download.
Why is my game laggy?
Why is my game laggy?
Performance on standalone hardware is limited. Try these settings to improve frame rate:
- In the options menu, go to VR Settings → Stereo Rendering and set the resolution to 80%. This reduces visual quality slightly but provides a meaningful performance boost.
- Set your render distance to 4–6 chunks. Values of 9 or above are not recommended and will likely cause lag spikes.
- Consider playing Skyblock or Oneblock worlds, which have fewer loaded chunks and lower hardware demands.
