Could you build this?
No Adding stereoscopic VR and 6DOF head tracking to a non-VR game requires deep graphics engine reverse engineering, binary hooking, and low-level DirectX/Vulkan and OpenVR integration.
What it would actually take: Building this requires reverse-engineering the compiled game binaries (X4: Foundations) using tools like Ghidra or IDA Pro to find internal camera matrices and render pipelines. The developer must write a C++ injection DLL that hooks DirectX 11/12 or Vulkan graphics calls to inject stereo camera viewports and sync head tracking data from the OpenVR/SteamVR API with sub-millisecond latency. This demands specialized expertise in low-level graphics programming, memory inspection, and VR spatial maths.
