launching Flying Circus VR locks lauching with "next up" IL2 box in HMD

[CapnBlood]

I'm launching IL2 in VR (SteamVR) with vive pro2.  It doesn't really lock up, but nothing else happens..

Insure VR is enabled in the game.

Launch Vive Console.

Launch Steam VR.

Lauch IL-2.exe from your shortcut on your desktop.

So launching with the Steam shortcut is Ok I guess (?) I tried launching from the exe and it won't launch.
I don't see anywhere in the game settings to enable VR. I just looked. I can launch it in VR with Steam if that's what you mean I did that before.

@CapnBlood You can enable VR from the Settings tab on the IL2 launcher or in game Settings>Graphics.

Do you have the Steam version of the game or the stand alone? If stand alone suggest  you launch from an il-2.exe shortcut.

I have the Steam version. I was able to enable VR HMD under graphics in the game with the help here but with the same results. Launching it (after Vive Console and SteamVR are running) .. Steam checks I want it in VR with a pop-up box, then nothing happens. In the HMD I see a loading box for the game that is blank and says Next Up or something. I run a lot of VR games and no issues with them.
Only reason I bought this game was to play it in VR.
