How do you start in VR mode

[lloyd709]

Just updated but when I click on start (with my VIVE plugged in and VR started it just says "Asseto Corsa does not support VR".

Have I missed some instructions somewhere?

Disregard my comment, Flag was right, just needed to set it to OpenVR.

Glad you got it running. I know that crap must have been frustrating you to no end.

To be fair Kunos not adding gamepad suport to user interface is absolutely deplorable as not having gamepad support to enable wheel buttons to navigate ui is a total game breaker. TFF for steam input so i can use shield controller (or any other gamepad with joysticks or trackpads) for Assetto Corsa ui.

Steam Input allows VR experience to be way more immersive and makes the game playable for me in VR and not.

Setup your controllers including wheel base buttonsthrough steam input and then make sure controller settings for AC are not using steam controller boindings for wheel to work as a wheel.

Works perfectly in VR

Try playing Project Cars in VR and compare to AC.

PC is well implemented VR support,
AC is very clunky in comparison.

If sim users are using wheel fumbling about reaching for vive controller sucks. Just using wheel buttons would save a lot of fumbling about. Fumbling around for five controller is no different for fumbling about for KB+m

Kunis need to sort ui on PC so that nothing but buttons on wheel can be used for playing this game in VR flawlessly.

Launching games from game theatre is not full VR support.

On PC2 I'm using the mouse and keyboard for the UI. There is nothing difficult about using the UI in AC or the Content Manager in VR. In the video I launch the game from the same Big Picture interface all SteamVR games launch in. Is the few seconds you need to grab your vive controller really that much of an inconvenience? Maybe it's just me - but I don't get worked up over UI controlls when they work as intended.

Guess it is really muscle memory related and just what you are used too, i guess!? Using steering wheel buttons to control steam overlays, vr dashboard etc as well as all game settings etc in driving games does not make sense too you?

i would say being able to do this greatly adds to a more immersive and intuitive way to achieve the same thing.

Recent Steam Input changes have made using multiple devices a lot easier , regardless of how games ui works. Like being able to raise or lower device priority has helped alot with options for any game in vr and desktop mode too.

But yes using vive controller and game theastre is still a good work around until vr support is improved in AC. AC sees constant improvements as does steamvr and steam input so things are just need time. and we all just need more time to retrain muscle memory from what we are used too

What is stupid is having a kb + m only ui for vr mode ...

Whether stupid or not, is there any way to turn it off globally?
Thanks to that sucker I lost several "pre-race races" for the last available slot / favourite car for a MP session.

You clicked the steering wheel icon in the on-track menu using the mouse, correct? And after this, you still have no input?

[Alien Identity]

Did you name and save a steering wheel profile in Assetto Corsa \ main menu \ controls \ steering ? And then load the profile?

Also, after setting up the profile, you need to keep the mouse cursor on the monitor inside the Assetto Corsa window.

Having trouble launching the game in VR. I have a HTC Vive. Did something change recently, or am I missing something?

AC almost always resets my wheel controls for me, especially when I do something differently (different USB port, different drivers). It sucks, but try to make sure you check the inputs every time.
