DCS kinda starts...

[MurderOne]

It opens to the main screen, starts playing the music, but does exactly nothing. That said, I've been having serious Rift issues, and only just today was able to even get into the Oculus Home. I'm not sure if I have an Oculus problem or a DCS problem. Log not attached, telling me "invalid file". Here is a copy:

This is definitely not a DCS issue, it's an Oculus issue. If anyone has suggestions, however, I am all ears. It launches fine with the Oculus stuff turned off.

[BIGNEWY]

Sorry I do not have the oculus, but I will ask around.

 

thanks

[MurderOne]

It took another windows reset, followed by zero driver installs, and adding some runtimes provided to me by some oculus users. I'm good to go now, and like I said, it wasn't a DCS problem, it was an Oculus problem.

[BIGNEWY]

Thanks for letting us know MurderOne

 

enjoy!
