Change your openXR runtime to the Oculus one. What you’re seeing happens with Oculus devices when you’re using the steamVR version of openXR (unless you’re using a Quest 2 with Virtual Desktop, to really confuse things).
Anyway, don’t worry about all that. You just need to set the registry key for the openXR runtime to point at the Oculus file and your problem will be gone.
Here are the steps if you don’t know what I’m referring to. The default path in the instructions below is probably correct for your system if you installed the Oculus software to its default location:
- [Oculus] Before using VR in Flight Simulator with an Oculus headset, the computer needs to know the location of the OpenXR runtime to use. Please follow the steps below to set this location in the registry:
- Right-click on your Start menu and select Run.
- Type in “regedit” (without quotations) and hit Enter. This will launch the Registry Editor.
- Locate the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Khronos\OpenXR\1
- For ActiveRuntime change its value to the one that matches your platform (note: default path is shown below):
C:\Program Files\Oculus\Support\oculus-runtime\oculus_openxr_64.json - Close the Registry Editor. You are now ready to enter VR with your Oculus headset.
