Thick8 Posted November 30, 2017 Posted November 30, 2017 This was not an issue the other day as far a I can recall. The display will go to the Steam holodeck with with the waiting animation (3 pulsing bars on a blue background) for a few seconds every once in a while. The game freezes for that period of time, and then resumes where it left off. It does this regardless of the level of detail chosen. It seems to have gotten worse as it happens frequently now. Like for 3 to 5 seconds every 10 to 15 seconds. I did a complete reinstall of DCS 2.0 and the Nvidia drivers just to be sure it didn't have anything to do with my previous Helios install. Any ideas?

Quadg Posted November 30, 2017 Posted November 30, 2017 steam is telling me it updated steamVR recently. could that be the issue? My Rig: AM5 7950X, 32GB DDR5 6000, M2 SSD, EVGA 1080 Superclocked, Warthog Throttle and Stick, MFG Crosswinds, Oculus Rift.
Thick8 Posted November 30, 2017 Author Posted November 30, 2017 I guess it could be. In addition to the aforementioned issues; when I crash the plane, DCS crashes to desktop. Didn't do this until today after the reinstall. SteamVR has updated twice for me this evening. Maybe I should opt out of the beta. I don't know why I thought this was going to be painless. Hardware upgrades never are...

wormeaten Posted November 30, 2017 Posted November 30, 2017 Could be Nvidia drivers as well. Some people report similar issue with Rift after update Nvidia drivers. This is normal and will be fixed no matter what is the source of the problem.

Hardware upgrades never are... Definitely get out of the Steam VR Beta, to at least rule that out. - Edited November 30, 2017 by dburne Don B EVGA Z390 Dark MB | i9 9900k CPU @ 5.1 GHz | Gigabyte 4090 OC | 64 GB Corsair Vengeance 3200 MHz CL16 | Corsair H150i Pro Cooler |Virpil CM3 Stick w/ Alpha Prime Grip 200mm ext| Virpil CM3 Throttle | VPC Rotor TCS Base w/ Alpha-L Grip| Point Control V2|Varjo Aero|
Thick8 Posted December 1, 2017 Author Posted December 1, 2017 Found the answer in another thread. Nvidia driver issue.
