I dosent work in Phasmophobia

[Cengo]

So i launch OVR after opening Steam VR and it works great, I configure my twitch chat, i set up the wrist watch where i want, everything, it is there when i look at it, but Once Phasmophobia is launched (IN STEAM VR MODE, THE STEAM VR MINI APPLICATION SAYS PLAYING PHASMOPHOBIA IN STEAM VR) i can no longer view the watch. i play using a Meta Quest 2, and have gotten OVR toolkit to work perfectly with vrchat and several other games, but am not able to do this one, i have looked for help and found this to be very frustrating please help!

It's strange that the SteamVR status window says Phasmo then. :o

Can you open up the 'Display VR View' window for SteamVR to double check Phasmo is visible in there? Just in case there's some weirdness going on like it reading the game being played on Steam.

According to our wiki, you should have SteamVR set as the OpenXR runtime.

Sorry, do you mean you can see OVR Toolkit ('the clock'?) but you can't interact with it?

No i cant see OVR Toolkit in phasmo

This 'shouldn't' make a difference, but, with Phasmo open, bring back up the OVR Toolkit Settings window on your desktop (May be minimized to tray, check the bottom right of your desktop for an OVR Toolkit icon)
On this window, go to Settings, then click reset UI position.

I know at the very least OVR Toolkit is visible in Phasmo on native SteamVR headsets. :)

Just to check, you set SteamVR as the OpenXR runtime like suggested? If you have not, this will be why it's not working. :)

Unfortunately with Oculus it's pretty easy for games to bypass SteamVR.

Be sure you're launching OVR Toolkit and Phasmo through the Steam desktop client, or, the SteamVR Home games list.

Using other applications or the SteamVR Dashboard will close other apps like you said.

You should have the same issue with both. We both rely on the game running through SteamVR as SteamVR is the only application providing an overlay extension for us to use. :o

Providing OVR Toolkit is working outside of Phasmo, it'll work in Phasmo when the game is running through SteamVR. Unless like stated, you're accidentally closing OVR Toolkit via the SteamVR Dashboard when launching another app. (Which you'll also run into with other overlay apps too)

For future reference... You should join the Discord for faster responses. Steam provides no notification beyond a green icon, it's not possible for me to respond fast to these messages compared to Discord which will even display the messages in VR via OVR Toolkit. :)
