The beta for Half-Life 2 (including Lost Coast, Episode 1, Episode 2, and Half-Life: Source) has been updated with VR bug fixes.

The following Virtual Reality-related changes are included:

• Support has been fixed for resolutions other than 1280x800
  
• Support has been fixed for cloning the main display (instead of using the Rift as an extended display)
  
• Sharpness of the VR output has been significantly improved
  
• Head-and-neck model has been fixed. It was often moving the camera along axes that should have been unchanged, such as moving the camera forward and backward when it rolled from side to side
