[use .8 runtime] problem with 0.7 Oculus DK2 with DCS 1.5 installation

(I dont know why my previous post on the same subject was closed , and since I could not have people replied to it, so sorry but I am asking again here with a bit more details)

 

Hello ,

I'm having problem to get the Oculus working on DCS 1.5.

 

I did the update of Oculus Runtime 0.7, but in DCS 1.5 it's not working anymore. It was working perfectly on DCS 1.2.7 with Oculus runtime 0.6. but now with this latest 0.7 I can't make it work.

 

Here is what I did to try making it work and maybe someone can help me out. Did I miss something ?

1) I have un-installed the Oculus Runtime 0.6

2) installed the Oculus Runtime 0.7

3) started DCS 1.5 and selected the option : Auto Detect Oculus Rift.

4) Exit DCS 1.5

5) restarted DCS 1.5

 

After this, I see on my main screen the DCS window but can't figure how to make it work displayed in the Oculus...?

 

Anybody have any clue on why it not working?

Is there anything more than the oculus runtime 0.7 that I need to install

 

Please if you dont have any clue and yours got to work, just tell me your install process steps I guess this will help me in a sense :)

 

Any other help on this will be very appreciated guys !

Many thanks !

I guess its a problem with my system then... since the 0.7 update, not only in DCS it does not work anymore, but even just the demo test doesnt even want to work.

 

still I have no solution to make it work on my system... not a problem with DCS 1.5 but its the 0,7 of Oculus.

 

in 0.6 Oculus with the 1.2.7 its working properly.

 

cant wait for the CV1 version to come out in Q1 2016.

Have you installed the latest graphics drivers specifically for VR?

 

I'm running the latest Oculus Runtime for Windows 0.8.0.0-beta with DCS (it's running really well).

 

But note you have to have specific graphics drivers to use it.

 

. If you have an NVIDIA GPU, make sure to upgrade to the 358.70 driver or later. To get the driver, go to https://developer.nvidia.com/gameworks-vr-driver-support

 

. If you have an AMD GPU, we recommend the Catalyst 15.10 Beta or later. To get the driver, go to http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/latest-catalyst-windows-beta.aspx

I would recommend you:

 

. Uninstall the current Oculus Runtime you have .... shut down.

. Un-plug all the Oculus cables .... re-start.

. Install the specific graphics driver for your card .... re-boot.

. Install the latest Oculus Runtime for Windows 0.8.0.0-beta .... shut down.

. Plug all the Oculus cables back in .... re-start.

 

Let us know if fixes the problem. Pilot_salute1.gif

Hi Sid,

Thx for taking this time to try to help me with a solution.

 

I just tried it and unfortunatly even after doing this step by step my system with those version does seam to get to work again... I'll have to stay with 0.6 I guess under 1.2.7 to fly with the Oculus.

Sorry to hear it didn't work for you, I'm at a loss as to what else to suggest.

 

Thank you Sid.

I finnally found what was the problem.

There was a conflict with the USB Screen Driver (Display Link) that I was using before for my multi screen setup. Now much more on the Oculus, I really dont need it. Removing this driver fixed the problem completely.

does anyone of the oculus users updated to 1.5.2?

any problems using the oculus with 1.5.2?

 

I just tested it... in deed it looks like it does not work anymore... but my guess it is linked with the new Oculus runtime 0.8.

(my current installation is with this 0.8 version ...since it is needed for the DCS alpha with Nevada build, and works greath)

Running the 0.8 with older version of DCS seam now that it is not working anymore.

 

Have you tried to test it under the 0.6 version ... My guess it will get to work again on this older version.

Many other games are broken now on the Runtime 0.8. But for games devellopers that are updating their

game with the latest Build of Oculus (0.8), its getting better and better in performance and stability.

 

Cant wait for the Consumer version realease of the Rift... this will so change our sim world. :lol:

I wont be able to help you on that topic Richard I'm sorry... Maybe check in the Forum support for help on the updater and post there... people might have the same problem shared there.

 

Here I was most focusing on the Oculus driver problem with DCS versions.

 

Good luck ++
