Rfactor2 The VR thread -settings & tips

I have pimax 8k plus, the tab works perfectly for me with the labels, I have the sparks disabled, when putting special effects the low will not be seen

 

So far i only had enabled parallel projection in rF2 and everything worked fine except the sparks. So i gave it a try and also enabled parallel projection in PiTool. This makes the sparks appear in the correct way. Whoever it has a big downside in performance. It seems that enabling PP in PiTool changes aspect ratio of the rendered image. Without PP in PiTool i have a SteamVR resolution of about 7100x4460. With PP i have a resolution of 9100x4460. I think i will fill a bug report as the sparks don't seem to be rendered correctly when only using the PP of rF2 which i think they should. Maybe you and @juanchioooo can hop also into my bug report and confirm this issue.

For the driver labels i will also fill a bug report as they appear now but definitly have some alpha sorting issues.

Is it me, or do I select the VR.ini config and save it and it never stays activated?

 

rFactor 2 doesn't launch in VR like it used to.

I recently upgraded my hard drive from a SATA SSD to an M.2 NVMe
I reinstalled windows and all programs including steam and rF2.
The problem is that before, I started rF2 in Vr from the Steam option or a shortcut that I had prepared for VR, but always with SteamVR stopped so that it started at the same time as rF2, something that had always been recommended to me.
Now this no longer works. Neither from the Steam VR option, nor from the shortcut, it only starts rF2 if I have started SteamVR before or if I start rF2 from the SteamVR VR interface.

The error I get is the following:

"Unable to init VR runtime: HMD Not Found Presence Failed (126)"



It's not a big hassle, but I would like to know if it can be started again with a simple step, or if this is going to be the case from now on.

Like a crazy ideal... Could the problem be that rF2 starts so fast on M.2 that it doesn't take time to start SteamVR? I don't know... the error would make sense.

Thanks for everything.

 

When I start rfactor 2, PiTool always starts both programs at the same time

 

Did you try to change the Steam Launch Options of the game with a +VR option?
To add command line parameters in Steam, right-click on the game in the library and choose "Properties". in the properties box, choose "General" and there is a box named "Launch Options"

 

Just activating VT in the graphic settings works perfectly for me

 

Hello
I am using rFactor 2 with Open Composite.
And I wonder if I can use TinyPedal when I am using Open Composite?

 

Currently you can't.
It's only possible using steamVR and an app to display them in VR.
Crewchief for instance can do it for you.

 

How did you get the mirrors working properly?
Do you have a guide/tutorial or link for me?
Thanks
