Virtual reality problems

[TCW_Welsh78]

Only with this game do I get headset crashes/freezes at least 5-10 times per week. I can play Elite Dangerous constantly with no problems whatsoever. Anyone else experience this issue, specifically Rift S users? I was convinced it was a hardware problem and ordered a new lead, however as stated above ED I have no issues ever?

I don't have any problems when I'm in game, but i cannot launch the game in VR unless I have manually launched SteamVR first. Otherwise it results in IL2.exe task not responding in the task manager.

I have actually had a few more crashes than usual since the last update, maybe 2 or 3. Frustrating for sure, but not enough to make me really start to worry, and in fact theres some other stuff I've been changing with mods and SteamVR that may be causing the issue, but I'm too lazy to look into it. Have you done any kind of changes lately?

Have never had a crash of any sorts and I've been through some rather lengthy sorties. Playing with Rift S without ASW/reprojection.

 

Do you use ASW/reprojection? If so then you'll find that in ED it kicks in much more often which reduces the strain on the GPU (since it renders at 40fps) while in IL2 it can avoid it and keep the GPU running at higher usage levels throughout a bigger part of the session; so if this is the case then consider toning down whatever OC you have running on the GPU and keeping an eye on it's temperatures.
