Spanishcop Posted January 2 Posted January 2 Hello Everyone..... Could someone be kind enough to assist on how to get Bigscreen Beyond VR Goggles to work on DCS World? I have all my jets purchased with DCS world and I do not use STEAM services. How are you guys getting the BigScreen Beyond VR goggles to work? Are you running any other software to make it work with DCS World? Do I just need to install Steam and Steam VR and then launch DCS from my desktop? I really hope someone can share some insight on how to do this please and thank you in advance. Michael
Brainfreeze Posted January 2 Posted January 2 The headset requires SteamVR for tracking (with the base stations) so yes you do need SteamVR installed and make sure tracking works. 1 i9 14900K / 64GB / RTX 4090 / Varjo Aero / Winwing Orion2 + F15EX / Virpil Wrbrd + Alpha Stick + ACE pedals

Thanks for the reply.... Just to confirm........ Although Steam VR is running.... I would still be able to run DCS World and not go through Steam to play DCS correct? I've purchased too many jets and helis on DCS world which are not compatible with Steam and surely I don't want to have to re-purchase them again.

SteamVR is an app provided by Steam, it's not Steam itself. You fire up SteamVR and then run DCS from it's own launcher. Edited January 4 by Panzerlang
Habu_69 Posted January 4 Posted January 4 (edited) I think maybe the first use of BsB one needs to install and start Steam, go through all the Steam settings, and in the Steam program choose ENTER VR in the upper right corner of Steam window. In DCS settings choose the appropriate VR choices. After that initial setup, one can start DCS in VR mode from the DCS desktop icon and SteamVR will automatically initiate in OpenXR without the Steam program. I have best results limiting FPS to 75 on the BsB app. Edited January 4 by Habu_69
