Hey all,
While the update yesterday went very smoothly I did not have the time to test anything untill today.
I’m pretty annoyed to say the least.
When I’m in VR mode and select an airport from the world map to start a flight it starts loading as normal and then stops at about 80%.
Restarted the sim and started the same flight not being in VR mode and then all is loaded and ready to fly within seconds.
I can do this every single time over and over again. In VR mode it simply does not work. By the way, when starting the flight in pancake mode works fine and then switching to VR mode also works fine and can fly…
BUT !! Then the disconnects. My goodness, it is worse than ever before. I got myself a solid 400Mbit connection from where I work of from home as well. Never,ever issues with that. I’m about a minute in the air and already messages of switching to offline. C’mon guys, basic stuff this.
It is like I’m getting my car to the dealer for the yearly maintenance. I drive out the street after the maintenance and the engine stops running and can’t get started anymore. Boy oh boy….. I feel my own frustrations
Sorry for the rant but pretty fed up with this. Have not been flying for 3 months in the sim waiting for this update and it’s worse than ever.
Back to the racing sim, that works.
I am not having that issue here maybe more info on your hardware might help. Here is mine

Hi meh,
Thanks for your feedback.
I can assure you that it ain’t my rig.
Once I start the flight in 2D mode and then switch to VR I got even a solid 54FPS without any trickery with OpenXR Toolkit or anything else. So that is not the issue.
Before the update never had any issues like these either.
For your info…
X570 Dark Hero with 5950x and 64GB 3600 CL14
RTX 3090 and gen4 ssd’s
Reverb G2 and also the Honeycomb A & B + TPR
Also Win 11Pro and latest nVidia driver (clean NV installed)
If anything then iRacing races is highly demanding on solid networking and this runs smooth as butter….always…
So heck yeah….how? These offline switching…..
Was watching a video from Mark (SimHanger) were someone also reported the similar issue where after a reboot he had things running normal. So I will give that a try as well. Never hurts LOL
