cercata Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 The new Oculus runtime(Dash+Home2) uses a lot of RAM, in my computer I see 2.5GB used by the Service, Client, Dash, etc, whithout taking into account Home2. For people with 16GB or less running DCS, that's a lot. Someone packed the old runtime with the minimal things, so we can save a lot of RAM. I don't have sttutters anymore now !!!!! Instructions: 1) Stop the service OVRService (Oculus VR Runtime Service) 2) Rename "C:\Program Files\Oculus" to ""C:\Program Files\Oculus2" 3) Download this file and uncompress it on "C:\Program Files". Now you shoud have "C:\Program Files\Oculus" again https://drive.google.com/open?id=1FRKhhHgq2rdeQLnnF5jNs-wvMq2YgVnn 4) Restart the OVRService If you want to go back to the new runtime, then: 1) Stop the service 2) Rename Oculus to Oculus1 3) Rename Oculus2 to Oculus 4) Start the service again I made a small bat file that automates that runtime change, I join it here Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/oculus/comments/9odbvz/fixed_old_oculus_home_runtime_w_instructions/OculusSwap.zip
Mud Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 Is this by any chance the one like we used to have in a past where you can bypass running home before running your games / sims?

Yes, is that old version, but with everything removed, no Home, no Oculus Client, just the runtime, no need to bypass it. Everything is black until you launch a game. And you can swap quite quickly between the actual version and that old version, in case you need for a game.
Mud Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 Just tried it out. Brilliant! Been hoping for a while now to be able to run things without the bloat-home having to run. Thanks a ton, Cercata!
