OpenXR support

[Pan_de]

Will you ever include OpenXR support? At least in some basic form?

Apps like OpenKneeboard or OXR Toolkit also show that it should be possible in theory.

I just want to add a "me too" to this. I love Realty Mixer. I use it with MSFS and X-Plane and have an avionics panel that it really helps me with. The thing is, on my HP G2, the FPS goes from 45 using OpenXR to the low 20s using the same render resolution (which I really can't lower and read gauges) under SteamVR so it makes it really unusable. I think some headsets work better with SteamVR but mine is painfully slow. I've tried every fix and setting and mod out there, but I've just accepted the fact that running either one top of Steam takes a big performance hit.

I'm pretty sure WMR/OpenXR supports OpenVR API so I'm hoping that perhaps the same API calls might work outside of Steam that work inside the SteamVR environment.

Waiting for openxr support before this is a viable option for MSFS

+1 from me

You can run your DCS or MSFS2020 by configuring SteamVR as OpenXR runtime. That way you bridge these two so you can run your OpenXR API layer applications as well as SteamVR overlay applications such as Reality Mixer.

Seems to run quite stable, occasional DCS "graceful" crashes occur, Definitely worth a try.

another +1 for openxr support!

yeah yeah, +15 from me too.

Have any of you tried running DCS MT or MSFS2020 via SteamVR as OpenXR runtime lately?

[Snurpsss]

+1 here too

[harryer]

any update on future openxr support?

I own this program plus SimXR. When everything works, I prefer Reality Mixer. When I have problems, I use SimXR. Both are excellent although quirky and a bit wonky.

If you don't fiddle with resolution in OpenXR Toolkit, Sim/Game, and just set it up in SteamVR, it will work like a charm.

It does work for me (DCS, iRacing, etc...)

[DeathOmega187]

me too OpenXR

[Cmdr Henparty]

One more +1 for openxr, please!
Also happy new year :)

In the same boat as many of you here. I was drawn in by the sale price, but no OpenXR means it's just not going to be something I can use for sim racing. So I will wait for that feature to be implemented before buying.

I'm beginning to think this is abandoned-ware as the dev has not been heard from on these forums since August 2024 when the last update was made. For OpenXR support, take a look at SimXR if you are a MSFS player.
