PSVR2(softlock): can’t start Free flight, “ready to fly” button missing

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

The SU7 beta version 1.009.013 only when using PSVR2.

When I start free flight using “fly now” on map the plane loads on the airport but the “ready to fly” button is missing.

Instead the plane starts automatically rolling to runway and stops there. Since then I can’t control the plane neither using the vr controllers nor the dualsense gamepad.

I can’t even go back to pause menu.

The only workaround is to enter photo mode using dual sense (L1+R1) and this unblock the soflocked controls and I can play the game normally.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?

Everytime in PSVR2 mode only in Free flighthhaven’t tested other game modes)

MEDIA

Please add a screenshot or video of the issue occurring.

On SU6 it’s sometimes not visible, but if you press up on the d-pad and hit X it’ll load. Might be same in SU7

Yes, It hapenned randomly in SU6 but the current SU7 beta version on PS5 does that always now. It worked fine in previous SU7 beta build so somenthing got broken. Also the HUD/compass/notifications are broken in PSVR2 SU7 beta now. Let’s see if the announced new build for PS5 will fix that next week.

I can confirm this is fixed in SU7 beta build 1.9.16.0 on PS5pro+PSVR2. Thank you Asobo!
