ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Whenever SteamVR is launched before MSFS24 then MSFS24 will fail to open.
The workaround is to open MSFS24 first, then SteamVR, but I still think it is a fault that it is preventing the sim from launching at all.
And as an end user there a two reasons I prefer to open SteamVR first; It means that when I switch to VR mode in the sim then SteamVR is already up and running and I don’t have to wait for it to start the base station and find the headset.
Also if SteamVR is launched after the Sim is open, then the sound settings aren’t retained to port the external sounds to the speakers, and communication sounds to the VR headset. They instead revert to default and have to be changed every time the Sim is opened.
In 2020 if SteamVR is opened prior to the sim, then my sound settings are retained as they should, so I think this is how it should be in FS24 too
