CrossWiseRanger Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 Started as a problem occurring every several weeks. Now occurs after finish a DCS game. When go to start DCS with VR, the Rift cables are no longer connected. Per Oculus, the solution has been to completely uninstall and reinstall Oculus. This works temporarily. Requested support from Oculus, but they have not provided a solution to date. So, a graphics card configuration question. I have an ASUS GeForce GTX1080 and a multisynch display running via Direct Link cable. Both the display and Rift are connected to my graphics card. Is this the proper setup? I tried running the display from the motherboard Direct Link port but this crashes DCS, though Rift cables stay connected. All drivers and software are up-to-date. Anyone else have this problem -- or have a solution? Thanks. VR with Oculus Rift preferred flying method.
dburne Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 Have you taken the facial cover off the Rift and insured the headset cable is plugged in firmly? They can work loose over time.

I have done that and everything Oculus has ever suggested. Works fine except for DCS. VR with Oculus Rift preferred flying method.

That is very odd not sure it would be an Oculus issue if not happening in other games. You running any Mods?

eaglecash867 Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 Not sure if this would be related to your issue, but what do you have the Rift's USB cable plugged into? It pulls a lot of power on the USB bus, and when you plug in all of your other stuff for using DCS, the Rift may be coming up short on power sometimes, which can cause it to disconnect.
