Issues fixed

Game does not launch after UE4 Prerequisites (x64) fail to install

If you already have the prerequisites installed, the first time setup can erroneously prompt you to uninstall them.
Skip to step 3 if Steam is not running the first time setup.
Instructions[5]
  1. If you haven't already, run the game and its first time setup.
  2. Uninstall UE4 Prerequisites (x64) when prompted. The game should fail to launch here.
  3. Exit Steam.
  4. Go to <path-to-game>\Redist\.
  5. Run and install UE4PRereqSetup_x64.exe. It should say "Install" and not "Uninstall".
  6. Restart Steam.

SteamVR starts despite the game not using HMD devices

Generic Unreal Engine 4 solution does not work.
Modify configuration file[6]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>\Engine\Plugins\Runtime\Steam\SteamVR\.
  2. Open the SteamVR.uplugin file with Notepad or other text editor.
  3. Using the Find function (Ctrl+F), search for "EnabledByDefault". There will be exactly one entry.
  4. Change its value from true to false.
  5. Save the file.
