Why so?

It's important that devs are aware of all MT issues, so they can be fixed before ST disappears. That's why I'm asking why you prefer using ST for the moment.

I followed some advice I saw in the VR bugs thread.  I un-installed all my VR apps, then re-installed them.  and now DCS MultiThreading works fine without dizzyness.  I didn't realize that MT came out after I had installed VR on my PC.  Thanks much, I will keep using MT from here on out.

Something happened, and now I'm back to dizzy spells a lot, but I just take a snapshot with the PrintScreen key, and it makes it all better instantly.  I'm using PimaxXR Runtime, Pimax PC, OpenXR, and OpenComposite (Which was key to reducing my dizzyness dramatically: https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbEMxSGw0M3BsVUlnaW15anAzOGFpQTg3c3paUXxBQ3Jtc0trUUUzV3pvYUNMRHZTODJVQkMwUklfNXAtLXJNSFNxcVhpTmw3LVl4elZDcVp5Q3RnX3huZlgyZjRhcU9zUUxDMUNVSk9mcUc5aXA1dGFobmxZM0JITTBWSnBVQ0trdGQ0OXp4aU9xekxhUXU5cTUtcw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fgitlab.com%2Fznixian%2FOpenOVR%2F-%2Ftree%2Fopenxr&v=Ha9QHmOi1n8

Try this in Open XR:

@Flappie MT used to be very solid for me but since the last patch I too run ST all the time because there is now an extremely high chance in MT that at some point my VR feed goes black and never comes back.  I much prefer MT, but in a 1 hour session I'm almost guaranteed to hit this at least once and I'm usually the game host, so I can't have that level of instability. Game is running fine, so everyone else can continue...  but my VR somehow desync's is the best I can describe it. Only on MT, really hoping whatever was introduced in that patch goes back to normal later.

If you experience it again (in case you try MT again) please attach your session dcs.log file and your VR gear log if there is such a thing.

Note you can run a dedicated server on your PC. This allows you to rejoin the game whenever your DCS client crashes or when you lose the VR gear.

I do this sometimes and it works fine (I'm not using VR though).

I have the same issue, running MT in VR (OpenXR), and my cursor is in black and I can't see nothing during night time.

I think I might have worked around it by creating a new shortcut to launch DCS with "bin-mt\DCS.exe --force_enable_VR --force_OpenXR" instead of selecting options in the Steam launch window.  Not sure what happened in the last patch to require me to do this to get things on OpenXR again but for now at least it's not crashing, still a black cursor but hopefully that gets fixed sometime I guess. Thanks for the note on the dedicated server, we were doing that previously. Might be time to start again.

@Jenson @icuham Please attach your dcs.log (from "Saved Games/DCS.../Logs") and your options.lua ("Saved Games/DCS.../Config"). It might help me reproduce the issue in MT (so far, I can't).

Thanks.

You're running ST:

2024-03-30 12:18:09.800 INFO    APP (Main): Command line: D:\Steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\bin\DCS.exe --force_enable_VR --force_OpenXR

You should be able to find MT in here:

D:\Steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\bin-mt\DCS.exe

Thanks Flappie, but this is still weird, because I did have the quick access linked to mt folder, please see attached picture, I have four icons for DCS, and I'm sure that each time I'm clicking on the DCS MT VR. Anyway, even for ST, black color cursor is a nightmare, are we able to change it maybe to blue or green? Thanks.

Weird, indeed.

You really should try MT. What happens if you double-click DCS.exe from the bin-mt/ folder?

To recognize MT from the main menu, look at the version number. You should see this:

I have no idea, but I dont think so.

This ST issue is reported, but ST receives less and less fixes. MT gets priority since only MT will remain in the end.
