Hey, Support asked me to post here the bug that appeared since the patch. The planes from the gambler campaign in syria (it was in the second mission 'first strike' , but i presume this is a broader issue). The AI planes are not able to leave their shelters, logs says they cant navigate (logs attached). e.g. 2024-10-31 17:42:21.210 ERROR LUA-TERRAIN (Main): getRunwayHeading: not found runways for './Mods/terrains/Syria/AirfieldsTaxiways/H_c_01.rn4' airdrome 2024-10-31 17:42:21.210 ERROR LUA-TERRAIN (Main): getRunwayHeading: not found runways for './Mods/terrains/Syria/AirfieldsTaxiways/H_c_02.rn4' airdrome 2024-10-31 17:42:21.210 ERROR LUA-TERRAIN (Main): getRunwayHeading: not found runways for './Mods/terrains/Syria/AirfieldsTaxiways/H_c_03.rn4' airdrome should i also post this in some other thread so it gets the appropriate attention from the devs? dcs (2).log

So.. for testing this i switched back to meta quest link, and i started the game just to confirm the baseline before i would do anything else and.. it works again as quickly as ever. So yesterday after all my trials which didn't change anything, only switching to steamVR restored the performance, and going back now today to meta quest link its ok again. I don't understand it, other then a variant of 'have you tried turning it on and off again'. Since i cant replicate the issue anymore i cant try find the actual cause or solution, other then the 'this worked for me' solution of switching between steamVR and back to meta quest link. Hope this is now stable. Anyway, thank you all for your help, much appreciated. Happy flying

Oh i got those, got them on rolls of 100m even :). But not want to route it through the middle of my appartement living room now , girlfriend wouldn't accept.

Yes i have openxr toolkit, indeed i have read it too that its unsupported now and had an issue somewhere. Thanks, will try this tonight.

This is not on purpose. I dont have a ethernet cable to my pc so i dont use VD. i only did that during the meta quest v63 issue as temporary workaround. could it still be active therefore? how to disable it? Yes, sorry, learning as i go. I use meta quest link normally only with a usb cablle. but for trying to get around the slow start issue i went into steam and configured steamVR as the openxr runtime https://academy.vrex.no/knowledge-base/openxr/ . I edited my previous reply

KB5044033 ' il check the fw upgrades later. not much time atm :). Sure. see attached. Im happy to report that i got speedy load times again of the game by switching from meta quest link as openXR runtime to steamvr . Still willing to find the cause though dcs.log dcs (1).log

Hello, From 2 days ago DCS suddenly started taking a literal 10mins to start the game. DCS logs show an 8min jump in timestamps, so probably something is happening there which isnt supposed to ? 2024-10-16 21:21:25.889 INFO VISUALIZER (21248): SceneManager initialization 2024-10-16 21:21:25.975 INFO VISUALIZER (21248): DCSScene initialized 2024-10-16 21:29:02.194 INFO VISUALIZER (21248): [23:29:02.998][Info ] OpenXR: Available reference spaces: 3 2024-10-16 21:29:02.194 INFO VISUALIZER (21248): [23:29:02.998][Info ] OpenXR: Creating swapchain for view 0 with dimensions Width=2064 Height=2272 SampleCount=1 Using autoexec.cfg as per support faq link did not give anymore details in the logs as can be seen: 2024-10-17 18:55:58.260 INFO VISUALIZER (9232): DCSScene initialized 2024-10-17 19:03:33.607 INFO VISUALIZER (9232): [21:03:34.101][Info ] OpenXR: Available reference spaces: 3 Running with: my VR set is a Meta Quest 3 software version 641203492, using quest link with cable.
