VR Launch Issue - Oculus

posting here as QUEST2 user wiling to use openxr, please reiza devs help us

 

@Renato Simioni @CrimsonEminence

First, apologies for the tags. I know you're busy.

However, we are approaching the end of this year, without even an aknowledgment of this issue still for Oculus VR users.
Can i please ask that you simply give a nod in this official support thread regarding the OP. It's a niche issue, i know. But if you own an Oculus headset, it really does impact playing AMS2 in a way that isn't present in other sims.

Again, i'm not expecting fixed in next patch, or any timelines for when it might be corrected. At this point, just a thumbs up that you have acknowledged it and even a commitment to look at this when theres more time would be great.

Regards

Matt

 

Bump again, for the faintest hopes of a response!

No guarentees, but at least i've finally managed to get a response!

I'll continue to badger them about this after the next release

 

Have just tried this, and was able to launch via OpenComposite and bring up the OpenXR Toolkit.
GitHub - rodolZ80/bypass-oculus-detector: Windows Library that simulates not having the Oculus service running and having the VR Headset disconnected.

 

Looking forward to giving this a try! Thanks!

 

And finally it works thanks to this community mod! I can now launch into OpenXR mode with Rift S and get OpenXR Toolkit working! FFR is still a bit funky just like vrperkit, but got rid of artefacts when increased the inner ring to about 80% with horizontal scaling 165% (and vertical offset 10% for my headset). Not sure how much gain this will give though, haven't really tried to measure yet. Still it is great to get the CAS sharpening and resolution override and PP settings. All ran pretty well at Nords during daytime, but still got frame drops at night, so may still stick to daytime races. The AMS2 shadows are still ugly though, even with shadows set to ultra. Might try night again with shadows off. Anyway, it works!

 

Yes, ran better (and looked better imo) with shadows set to off. Still some frame dips at the day to night transition, but not too bad. ASW on auto might be a smoother experience.

@TheMattyOnline you need to try this mod out!

 

Looking right now. Thanks for the heads up.

 

OK, tried this and it works perfectly.
It highlights perfectly just how low down the priority list we VR users are to not only Reiza, but all sim developers.
The fact that almost 3 years of complaining about this issue, and falling on deaf ears, only to be solved by a 3rd party with an 11kb Lib file just reinforces to me how easy this should have been for Reiza to fix for us Oculus users.

That said, i'm just happy to finally see solution

Thanks for posting the above @MickT

 

Wow! Wow! and Wow! Amazing news! Finally i can use overlays with AMS2, running OXR Toolkit i just reduced a bit of blue color and used the "light" sunglass filter together with 80% cas sharpness. AMS2 VR image was already good but now it is just incredible. Running a Quest 3 i cant believe how good it looks. Its a game changer. This guy deserve a beer, does anyone know how we can contribute?
