Gun Not Appearing At Title Screen..
So I've had this game for some time now and it was pretty good for a while. Now just recently it started booting up as normal but the gun to click "Start" no longer shows up..I've tried uninstalling the game several times, it even managed to delete itself countless times each time I've had to do a reset. Please help I really liked this but it is extremely frustrating to see that nothing is working for oddly no reason what so ever.:steamsalty:

hey there, what system are you on? do you see your controllers visible in your system menu? if you pull the trigger on an active controller, the gun should appear if it is not already visible. if not, try pulling the trigger on the other active controller.

I'm on PCVR with my Oculus Quest 2, I press everything, along with waving my arms around to trigger the tracking but not a gun in sight. I end up stuck in the Menu without any way of navigation, only left with the option to close the game..

how are you connecting to steam? wired? airlink? virtual desktop? is there any difference in behaviour if you connect in a different way?
I am wired and have only played Pistol Whip wired

Hi I've tried uninstalling and re-installing to no luck. Playing on oculus rift through steamVR.
Whenever I'm on the title screen, the gun doesn't appear in my hand so I can't select play.
Pulling triggers does nothing and when I test my controllers through the steamVR menu, they show up as working and tracking fine.
Any advice on what else I can try?

Hey there! There may be an issue with SteamVR where, if you switch out of the game window for whatever reason (e.g. switching over to another app to start recording your gameplay), your guns might disappear in the game until you switch back in to the game window on your PC. So, the PC window is important even though the game will appear to be running smoothly in headset. This goes for different headsets and set-ups (Air Link, Wired etc.) Hope that helps!

If you're still encountering issues, we'd love to get more info! You can submit a ticket here: https://zfrmz.com/Pe2x6NMd525EaTEIM7zE

I have the same problem (with Pimax headset and Valve controllers). I just bought the game and launched it for the first time. The gun is not displayed in the menu, as well as during the game. The gun moves and fires, but remains invisible. I only see the amount of ammo displayed in the position of my hand. (I created a ticket.)

[Update] The problem has been resolved. It was my fault: The game should be launched from the Pimax software rather than from SteamVR.

I updated my graphics drivers, which did fix the issue, but only temporarily, as the issue reoccurred less than 2 days later, and now I can't update my graphics drivers again.
