Step-by-Step Installation Guide

Install on Quest, in the card above, is the one-click USB install. These steps are the manual path (SideQuest or ADB).

Overview

Unreal Gold VR by GHWST (the author of UT99 Quest) is a standalone VR mod that brings the entire Unreal and Return to Na Pali experience from Unreal Gold to Meta Quest. It runs natively on the headset: no PC streaming.

[!NOTE] No game data is included. You need your own Unreal Gold files. A player reports it runs with the GOG release, and OldUnreal offers a free, Epic-sanctioned full-game installer. The APK (unrealquest-0.1.0.apk) is attached to a free Patreon post. First release (v0.1.0), so expect rough edges.


Prerequisites

  1. Meta Quest 2, 3 or Pro with Developer Mode enabled.
  2. Your own Unreal Gold game folder (or ZIP).
  3. SideQuest or ADB on a computer.

Step-by-Step Installation

1. Download the APK

Open the Unreal Gold VR post on Patreon (free, no pledge needed) and download unrealquest-0.1.0.apk.

2. Install it

Use SideQuest (Install APK file from folder) or:

adb install -r unrealquest-0.1.0.apk

3. Copy your game files

Copy your Unreal Gold folder or its ZIP to the headset's storage, for example:

adb push "Unreal Gold" /sdcard/Download/

4. Launch

Open Unreal Gold VR from Library → Unknown Sources. On first launch a welcome menu helps you find and select the Unreal Gold folder on the headset.

Troubleshooting & Tips

This is the first public build (v0.1.0, released 2026-08-27), so expect issues. Early player feedback mentions a washed-out image with no contrast setting, a slightly misaligned pistol, the health HUD partly out of view, small hard-to-read in-game messages, fast movement speed with a non-working walk key, occasional unintended quick-strafe, and key remapping not detecting Touch buttons. If the game does not find your files, re-select the Unreal Gold folder in the first-launch menu. Updates and bug reports: GHWST on Patreon or @GhwstVR on X.
