+:revdate: 2020/07/27
+
+
+== Introduction
+
+The jMonkeyEngine module jme3-vr is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. This documents that deprecated functionality.
+
+jMonkeyEngine 3 supports several VR specifications. The most modern of those is OpenVR, which is currently a widely supported standard. However, vendors are beginning to move towards OpenXR as a fully open cross-platform standard. OpenXR is available with jMonkeyEngine via xref:contributions:vr/topic_contributions_vr.adoc[user contributed virtual reality libraries].
+
+The known supported systems are:
+
+HTC Vive and systems supporting SteamVR/OpenVR
+
+Native Oculus Rift support (and through SteamVR)
+
+Oculus Quest 2 (through SteamVR with Virtual Desktop)
+
+Razer HDK and systems supporting OSVR
+
+Google Cardboard / GoogleVR
+
+Two implementations exist for OpenVR. A community maintained JNA based binding and LWJGL's JNI based.
+
+To use the JNA based bindings, put:
+
+    settings.put(VRConstants.SETTING_VRAPI, VRConstants.SETTING_VRAPI_OPENVR_VALUE);
+
+in your settings. To use LWJGL, instead put:
+
+    settings.put(VRConstants.SETTING_VRAPI, VRConstants.SETTING_VRAPI_OPENVR_LWJGL_VALUE);
+
+Note that the LWJGL bindings require LWJGL3 (jme3-lwjgl3) to be used.
+
+== Required dependencies
