Quest & Link Is Good Enough

[dburne]

Sorry if I am missing something obvious, but I have spent a couple of days without success getting DCS World to run on my Quest via Link. Everything does work, from the standpoint that I have managed to get Project Cars 2 to run in SteamVR in the SteamVR home after launching it from the Oculus Rift Home (ie Oculus Link), but Project Cars is the only thing I have managed to get to run. I have started DCS World without the VR active, and I now have it so that it auto-logs me in so those prompts are no longer interfering.

 

Whenever I launch DCS World, I get the splash screen in the SteamVR home showing that it is starting, but that is all I get. I guess my first question is when you are launching DCS, on the real desktop it shows 4 options - no vr, Oculus VR, SteamVR and SteamVR 2.5 - which of these is the one that you have managed to get working for Quest with Link? (I have tried all with no success).

 

Why are you using Steam VR with a Linked Quest?

Because I am a noob who didnt know any better :)

 

 

Thanks everybody, once I stopped running the steamvr I was able to get the direct Oculus VR mode to work - now to figure out where I stored my hotas controllers.

I've since tried to fly DCS World wireless with Virtual Desktop, but I can't get the sim to start in VR mode. I'm not convinced it would be ideal - especially for target spotting - as I find the wireless image just a smidgin more blurry than Link in other games, but wanted to try it anyway.

 

May be possible some time in the future, or with a hack of some kind, but I will try again.

Has anyone gotten the Quest, Virtual Desktop, and DCS setup working wireless? I'm waiting for a link cable to arrive, but used the Quest in 2d and it is much better than the CV1 I had been using.
