I have the standalone version of MSFS. I understand that the Rift S should be able to use VR on MSFS natively via its own implementation of OpenXR. I have changed the relevant registry key to point to the Oculus OpenXR runtime.
Can someone please explain to me why then SteamVR starts every time I start the sim (whether Steam is running or not)? This is my first experience of VR so I’m a newbie to the technicalities. But I don’t understand why SteamVR is needed at all but always launches and seems to sit between the headset and the sim, crashing frequently.
I have numerous issues with VR on MSFS. Framerate is bad - expected. But I have numerous crashes and 3 times in four it doesn’t even make it to the welcome screen with the headset plugged in…
Hope someone can help please. I’m going nuts here.
Running on a 9900K, 3080 FE and 32 Gb RAM. Samsung 960 EVO M.2
Thanks
