solved Quest 2 - DCS Crash upon pressing "Fly" after loading into mission

[BlueNexus]

Using a Quest 2, the game instantly crashes the moment I click "fly" after loading into a mission. I can move my camera before this, but as soon as I click fly it happens. I'm using Meta Quest Link v64, with up-to-date DCS.

HI. It seems the sim is unable to compile a crucial shader, which leads to the crash:

Purge your "fxo" and "metashaders2" subfolders (they are located in your "Saved Games/DCS..." folder).

If this does not help, try a DCS cleanup and repair.

Still no joy? Uninstall then reinstall your GPU driver.
