DCS VR always crashes everytime I try to take off Quest 2 headset then put it on again

[Dr.Cure]

Greetings gentlemen, I need some help in the determining the cause of my dcs crash every time I try to take off my headset for a while, then put it back again (toilet break for example). Currently, I'm using a gaming laptop (legion 7 with RTX 3070) and Quest 2 with Oculus tray tool (all in-game settings are either off or low end by the way, with the exception of textures and visibility range which are medium settings). Below are pictures of my Oculus tray tool settings and a notepad containing the DCS log as well. Any help or suggestion is graciously appreciated, gentlemen...thank you for your attention

Note = this problem has been happening for quite a while now, since last year everytime I try to take a toilet break (while taking off headset then put it on again), the game still resumes its activity

Are you using Open XR Toolkit or QuadViews?

The games working fine in VR, but crashes when you take it off is a common problem.  It got hosed in one of the meta or DCS updates some time ago. There's a big thread on it somewhere.I overcome this by fiting a bit of sticky note paper over the "face sensor", this enables me to take a break without crashing the game. Just remeber to take it off when finished or else the headset won't shut down.

I thought to do something as you did but hoped that there is a less "low tech"  

This problem is very annoying!

 

 

BTW happens also with Quest 3 with or without OpenXR Toolkit with cable or airlink.

It's the Turbo set to ON setting in OpenXR Toolkit when running DCS in MT that causes the game to crash when taking the headset off. In ST there is no such problem.

Dont have quadviews open!

Only fix i have for it is covering the sensor inside the headset for my Quest 2 and In headset settings before using link i set it to stay awake for 4 hours if inactive. 
 

With regard's too the sensor it needs to be fully covered so no light is detected, hence why i double taped it.

Thats worth a try - I was sort of accepting there wasnt a solution to this annoying issue.

Edit: It works for me - thanks!
