Bugsplat error when loading game in VR mode only...

[DK5491]

Ive just bought the endurance pack and lemans circuit DLC and now when i try to run the game in VR i get the following Bugsplat error -

Ive never had this issue before today and VR has always worked well. I'm using HP reverb G2 with open XR.

Ive just tried opening the game on my monitor instead and it work fine, so its something specifically related to VR...

Any suggestions?

Interesting, i have the G2 and openvr_api.dll file but possibly try disabling OpeXR and see if that helps mate.

I've now tried disabling open xr (in open composite) and using steam VR instead and it works fine, no issues. So it must be something to do with open composite.
Open composite did have an update just before this bugsplat error occurred so i wonder if that has something to do with it?

Ive even tried getting rid of open composite completely and using the openvr_api.dll instead but that gives me the same bugsplat error.
Is it possible to use an older version of the openvr_api.dll file that wouldn't have been affected by the update?

[MISTER WU]

Yeah mate ive been using the same dll file for like 2 years lol, its about 1.7 meg in size.

I am having the same issue: bugsplat when starting in VR...
It started with an opencomposite update a week ago or so.
Is there any way to install an older Opencomposite version?

You can select past versions from this location.

I am not to keen on trying this branch: it is not from the same team and not on github...
But give me some days and I might be desperate enough.
I tried SteamVR but the performance is soooo bad :-(

Sorry for the delay in responding, I have been busy. Please forgive me.
I will tell you that I had the same symptoms and replaced it with the previous version 1.0.1198 openvr_api.dll that I mentioned above and it is working fine now.

is working for me like that...start the game..after intro, start a single player race and after that the game will begin in vr mode. Now you can exit the race and everything will be in vr like normal

Thanks all, i've managed to resolve this now too. I went on the open composite discord and to find the following fix...

Scroll to very bottom here and download x64/openvr_api.dll - https://opencomposite.znix.xyz/builds/view_build?commit=43e551a4506880ab1a71b8b9fec2fd7fbb27372f

Then download the latest opencomposte launcher here and start it up - https://gitlab.com/znixian/OpenOVR

Then go into the open composite folder, runtime, bin, delete vrclinet_x64.dll and paste the x64/openvr_api.dll that you just downloaded.
The rename it vrclient_x64.dll

Make sure opencomposite is set to open XR, and load the game from steam as normal!

Thanks a million!! Happy again :-)
I saw that the error has been logged on github opencomposite so fingers crossed!
