  1. ok got it! commenting here for future reference: ended up needing to go into regedit and navigating to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Khronos\OpenXR\1\ApiLayers\Implicit in there I deleted the openxr referenced items and it now loads. 

     

    DCS sure makes me feel like a fuckin' computer hacker from time to time.

  2. So I just cannot get 2.9 MT to load. Everything working just fine the day before the update, no changes that I can think of. No mods, i9, 32gb, 4090, varjo aero, steam install. 

    I have tried, in no particular order: verifying game integrity, updating gpu drivers, updating windows, updating simshaker, uninstall and reinstall DCS, and of course, restarting my system. Tried launching with and without the various amends (--force_steamvr_enable etc) 

    I can load into ST just fine (evidenced by the version number in the bottom corner) and weirdly, if I launch via the bin-mt folder it launches into ST version. 

    I'm about out of ideas, other than just waiting for 2.9.1 and hoping it magically works again.

    Had the same when my Varjo Aero wasn´t turned on during launch of DCS.
    Both the DCS.exe and the MT version didn´t work, but i dont have the --force_enable_VR comand.

    I then found out that i can only launch DCS when my VR headset is turned on at first, since then
    i had zero problems. Kind of weird, because this didn´t happen before. Dunno why they changed
    that because it makes no sense......

    headset is on and working fine, just tried an uninstall and reinstall of DCS and still no joy, haven't managed to load into 2.9 MT one time so far and I am pretty much out of ideas.

    hmmm, I tried using these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HCPR6K2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 which look very similar and they mostly ended up falling off after a little use, maybe yours have better adhesive. 

  5. so I LOVE my MIP vr setup, my only complaint really is that there aren't any bumps on the rubber MFD buttons or the the UFC keypad/function buttons so I have to find the top one and count in to figure out where I am. On my thrustmaster MFDs I was able to put little squares of velcro or bump button stickers so I could find my way blind in vr and use them a lot more easily

    but

    the rubber buttons on the MIP really defy the laws of stickering and I have yet to find a solution, any of you industrious fellows found a way to add some bumps to these rubber buttons successfully? picture for attention:

    I got one - kept checking NowInStock and saw NewEgg had just got Gigabyte 4090. Added to cart and quickly Pay Pal'd it and now have official confirmation of my order - at MSRP (1709) baby!! Will be here tomorrow!!Woohoo!!

    See all I had to do was fuss a little lol. Btw NewEgg still showing some Gibabytes for anyone interested. Get it while it is  hot.

     

    congrats dude, I've followed your epic hunt on the varjo discord, nice to see it finally concluded successfully!

    My Varjo Aero headset stopped working today.  Initially it shut down and started up during gaming ( lens movement each time) several times, then it stopped working.

    Now the Varjo Base say that the headset is not connected. (all regular tests done).

    Any tips on what happended?

    ( I have contacted the support and sent in a log file etc). 

     

    You'll probably find more advice on the varjo discord. https://discord.gg/uErU4D3k

  8. anyone ever run into this issue? I'm coming back to raven one and in M3 the map assets in the persian gurf look like this, unit assets spawn fine. Even more weirdly instant action seems to load the map assets just fine, and I tried verifying the files and I don't have any mods installed other than reshade.

    OK, Got a weird one here, coming back to raven one after a long break and the map assets aren't spawning properly in the second half of mission 3 for some reason. I've completed an integrity check and when i load a hornet instant action in the persian gulf everything seems to be working fine. The attached photo shows the town you operate over for the second half of the mission, the actual unit assets spawn in correctly so I can sort of play the mission but I'd like to figure this out before I progress assuming it will be like this in further missions. as a note I p[lay in VR, if that could have anything to do with it.

    Three weird things are happening with the Aero I just started using.

    1. Random camera issues. Despite using 3 lighthouses, the camera goes wild sometimes, completely throwing me out of the cockpit for several moments before slowly reeling me back in. Motion sickness ahoy!

    2. Double mouse cursors the green/white cross used for flipping switches and pushing buttons are duplicated with one being much more opaque than the other. Strangest thing is that neither represents the true position of the cursor. The real cursor is somewhere between them. 

    3. Stuff randomly disappears. Occasionally, an asset or object will just randomly disappear for a few seconds, usually reappearing. This is especially frustrating when trying to dogfight or trying to obtain tally as I'm going into the merge only to see it suddenly appear out of nowhere or suddenly disappear, rendering me helpess before it reappears on my six. 

     

     

    Is this normal? Feel like a lot of people would be talking about these problems if they were universal. Is it just my headset?

    I get number 1 pretty regularly, never an issue with my index and nothing about my lighthouses has changed so its got to be something with the aero's tracking

    Yes looks really good. How many base stations do you need? How are the FPS v G2?

    I'm sure you could get away with one if you really wanted to but 2x is the prescribed number for sure, I was coming from and index so I already had them, supposedly pimax has had them in stock a bit more than the steam store. 

     

    using openxr toolkit with a little bit of FSR enabled I get excellent performance at native rez, better than I had with the index supersampled (average 40-60 fps with my i9/3090 system)

    What about the Pimax 8K Plus?

    I bought one of those last black friday, used it for 2 days and returned it and ordered an aero.

     

    Really hated the pimax, super uncomfortable, felt very cheap and poorly engineered, didn't look that must better than my index, terrible chinesium software. Really bad experience all around I do not recommend pimax but some people love them of course.

  12. ok actually solved it for the most part, I removed the amd super resolution openvr.dll and revered to original, for some reason repair didn't clear that. now its back to goggles instead of just turning the whole screen green, there's still a weird filter over half of one of my eyes but its at least usable now.

  13. with the gain all the way down the hud is still barely readable, is this normal? last time I flew a night mission in the hog (which was some time ago) I recall things looking quite a bit different, the grain also seems to look/act quite a bit different.
