EXPERIMENTAL: Virtual Reality

There does not seem to be an option to increase VR resolution? and eventhough it is using OpenXR I cant seem to get the OpenXR toolkit to work

 

i hope someone will make video how to setup beamng in vr

 

Ah my bad not used to OpenXR , Any idea where I could find that with my oculus hardware? I dont really see a menu or anything

 

Oof. Tried VR with Oculus CV1. I have a ryzen 5 5600x and RTX2070S and had to dial it down to minimum to have any reasonable FPS. Either im doing something wrong or it is a really rough state right now
Still, pretty awesome to have native VR support.
That said, I think Vulkan might be the coultprit here. Im having terrible FPS when switching to Vulkan

 

This is great news! Hope it works well on old Oculus Quest v1
Thanks to dev team for all that work and for constantly letting us on new journeys to set up a different game and driving experience!

 

It has been out for like 2 hours, there will be a video later today or most likely tomorrow.

 

I retract my Vulkan Accusation. It has a specific launch sequence to get smooth-ish FPS. And holy hell it works stunningly

 

ngl been hoping vr support would be added for a while, works pretty good when properly setup using vulkan, relative cam is a little weird it seems to pivot around an object instead of the central axis? anyone else encounter this?

 

Sadly no.
I managed to get the graphics setting to be pretty high.
Mesh and Textures to High, Shadows to Partial, Shaders and post processing to Normal, Lightning quality to Low, Anisotropic Filtering to x16 and even FXAA.
Still not trying to turn on bloom and all of the below settings.
*THE* biggest performance hit is when I turn on dynamic reflections. It literally tanks the FPS

 

This is the first time I have seriously considered getting VR. Are there any recommended specs for a PC to run this from the Devs to get it at decent or really good quality?

 

my vr camera is set way above where it should be. so when im in driver view i am like 1m above the roof of the car. i cant find a way to set the view to correct it. im using a quest 2 for vr

 

When I click start VR, nothing happens no matter if I use Windows Mixed Reality or SteamVR.
I use: HP Reverb G2 and a RX6950XT

 

I have this same issue. Also my controller doesn't work so I have to use keyboard, and sound only comes out of the headset when I open the Oculus menu, otherwise it comes out of my other headphones.

Using a Quest 2 via USB link cable as above.

Not sure if it matters or not, but I launched Oculus Link, then BeamNG via Steam on my desktop, and launched VR whilst in freeroam. Trying to launch it whilst SteamVR is enabled bypassed the launcher so I couldn't select Vulkan and therefore not launch VR anyway.

 

Same problem here. For a workaround, I use the relative camera. The controllers also don't seem to do anything.

Samsung Odyssey, using SteamVR.

Performance seems reasonable so far. Using an R5 3600 and an RX 6750XT

(sidenote: THANK YOU DEVS for not forgetting about us WMR plebs lol)

 

I feel like there is a VR/VRAM/AM (Breakfast) pun somewhere in here.. but I'm tired and old.

Thanks for the recommendation though!

 

What is the launch sequence? I have a similar setup to your (3900XT + 2080S) and I can't get it to run smoothly at all.

Edit: nvm. For me I had to launch Beam, go into VR mode, and then connect the Oculus. Works great.
