SteamVR

SteamVR

I have an Oculus dk2 does steam VR work with it?
The message board says go to the 'room' to configure but when I run steam vr it opens and closes with no error.

I have Steam VR. But every time I launch it it says headset not detected even if Oculus Rift DK2 is on. I cannot go to Room setup in Steam VR. I feel from the begining it is with no use for Oculus. Do not know what to do.
Other VR games by Steam are working perfectly without Stram VR.
Steam VR is really not active application in my Steam Library. I played several Steam based VR games without even thinking about Steam VR.
Do you have any procedure to activate Oculus Rift (DK2) with Steam VR?
DK2 is just working fine for all Oculus store apps, War Thunder ...

Yesterday, I downloaded IL2 BoS in the basis of VR support. Then requested for a full refund.

yes. the DK2 works fine with SteamVR. You need to install Oculus Home though.

I have Oculus Home as well and all apps on it working fine with DK2.
I really do not know why SteamVR does not work with DK2.

Hmm .. that's weird. I have a DK2 here too and it works fine :/ I would love to tell you why yours won't but I didn't do anything special apart from installingthe oculus drivers and SteamVR.

Thank you for trying to help.
Anyway, I reported this to Steam Support and waiting their reply.

also DK2 here and working fine,dirt rally,AC although raceroom does not 'launch' in headset.

Start oculus home,turn on DK2.
making sure it is on in the headset.
start steam.
click VR in top right corner,confirm in headset.
should then see grey room with gridlines and the sensor.

The DK2 still works like a charm!! In the current Oculus App, Go to "Settings" => "General" and enable "Unknown Sources". That will allow you to set the room and use non Oculus content.

Does the DK2 still work, I have tried as sTGRacer01 mentioned where you:
Start Oculus Home, then turn on DK2
Make sure it is on in the headset
Start up Steam
Click on the VR

But I get error 1114, with Steam reporting there is an error with the Oculus Runtime installation.

I tried installing the Oculus software again, but it reported everything was set up correctly, and I can use Oculus Home just fine, so I don't know what Steam VR's problem is now.

I haven't tried it for some time now not since getting the Oculus Rift and now the the new Quest unit. I am sure there must be a workaround. Worth taking a look at.

Could be the driver updates that have made some changes. I guess they are looking more to the future than the past.
