Mouce Posted January 28, 2023 Report Posted January 28, 2023 After talking to some of the NA pilots last night I realized that some of them were unaware that there is an Opencomposite (OpenXR) Launcher/Runtime Switcher. It will allow you to quickly swap between openXR and SteamVR, should you wish to do so. I have some vr games and applications that aren't compatible with OpenXR, so I actually tend to use it frequently. A bonus feature is that it will check for updates to OpenComposite and allow you to update with a single button click. The direct link is: https://znix.xyz/OpenComposite/runtimeswitcher.php?branch=openxr I understand that it looks like a shady link, however it comes from the OpenXR-Toolkit github page: https://mbucchia.github.io/OpenXR-Toolkit/opencomposite Search for "launcher", and it will direct you to the link I've provided. I hope this will simplify life for some of you! Britchot, Lipfert and wheelsup_cavu 2 1 Quote

Mouce Posted February 10, 2023 Author Report Posted February 10, 2023 I made the switch last week I think, I'm still trying to tune in my settings but i did pick up a slight fps bump and reduction in frametimes to go with it. Improperly tuned settings have also been the cause of my iffy spotting recently. wheelsup_cavu and Snaggle 2 Quote
Lee Posted February 10, 2023 Report Posted February 10, 2023 I uninstalled Steam and Steam VR and just use the runtime switcher to enable Flying Circus to run on my Reverb G2. Launch Windows Mixed Reality Portal then launch Flying Circuis. Works great with the added bonus of getting rid of unneeded software (Steam and its associated components). Snaggle 1 Quote
Lipfert Posted February 26, 2023 Report Posted February 26, 2023 Kameraden, I have so many versions of openvr_api.dll on my system, it's crazy. S! Quote

Vonrd Posted February 26, 2023 Report Posted February 26, 2023 Yeah, I went back also. Snaggle 1 Quote
Lee Posted February 28, 2023 Report Posted February 28, 2023 I’m still using an earlier version of neck safer with no issues. Snaggle 1 Quote
