Tuesday's update no longer sees my VR headset, crystal. Am I only one?


Recommended Posts

This most recent update on Tuesday suddenly I have lost all my ability to play in VR as DCS only boots up and lets me play on my main computer monitor, I get no image except for my pimax home screen in my Pimex Crystal headset. Dcs ignores my request too boot up in VR mode. Disabled qaud views no joy, reinstalled pimax home software no joy, anybody else have this problem??? . Seems like crystal users can play in vr but I read quad views is broken.. But I can't even get vr to work any longer. Been working fine for a year now nothing. 🤷

on the launch screen where you click play, does it show a monitor icon or VR goggle Icon. May be that its showing monitor so its going straight into monitor.

It's showing goggles of course. I won't waste people's time for something that simple.

Don't take that question personally.  I've seen too many troubleshooting threads that have gone on for multiple pages only to discover in the end that the problem was a simple what was described above.

I won't take it personal lol, But I assume he won't get any answers beyond what I posted in a non attacking way 🙂

Next layer would be disabling Quad Views in the Pimax XR control. If you have VR enabled there may be an issue like I had of needing to reset QuadViews. A quick test is to disable it and attempt a reload of DCS to VR. If that works then attempt resetting OpenXR toolkit based upon the Pimax Quadviews blog. I am not saying that is your issue but it did affect me and worked. Be warned however there are issues with Quadviews at the moment and you will need to turn off eye tracking on your Crystal to make it usable.

Not taken personal, just don't want them waste peoples time with responses that were 1st on the list to try. I Did fix the problem though, previous app removed Vulcan api from nvidia drivers about 4 or 6 weeks ago. After installing it all fixed. 🙄

Thank you for the suggestion, I did try the new. Dll file in qaud views and it does keep the tracking working but affects servers I can play in. I Did fix the problem though, previous app removed Vulcan api from nvidia drivers about 4 or 6 weeks ago. After installing it all fixed.

You didn't mention it and reality is that, as I mentioned, I've seen too many threads that go on for pages of in depth troubleshooting only to discover in the end it was something that simple.  So it's actually preventing wasting peoples time to make sure the basic steps are covered.  It may seem obvious and be your 1st thing on the list to try but that doesn't mean it always gets done 1st.

Thanks for coming back with what did fix your problem 👍.  That could help someone else down the road.
