Latest update causes stuttering

[Toby the Secret Beholder]

Steam VR is stutters like crazy and some games have do too eg Boneworks. I'm assuming its the latest update because it was fine before it came out.

I am on the same boat. Last update broke several things.

Hi,

nearly the same point here, with al little difference:
- ingame (Boneworks) went all fine (no problems so far) but i think all in all it's looks a little lower resolution
- ingame (Boneworks) the loading title stutterings very ugly as well as
in the main menu or in the menus of steamVR i have the stuttering effect too.
my system has a gtx 1070 and htv vive pro

What are Valve upto ?
First it was Oculus, and their dreadful v12 drivers, now it's the latest SteamVR update ?
All us VR owners are trying to make out VR is amazing, it is, and these problems are making VR look unappealing.
Yesterday, I was playing Project Cars, Dirt Rally games, Elite Dangerous, No Man's Sky, all running perfectly. Then, late in the morning, 3am, a new SteamVR update forced download and now soooo many problems.
Firstly, what the heck is this Steamworks workshop rubbish ? It won't stop trying to download, I don't want or need this crap. It's over 8Gb in size, I have never had it or needed it, yet it's trying to force a download that I don't want.
Then, in SteamVR, none of the environments work for me. There are none to download, it's empty. None of the backdrops are working, again they're empty. If I goto the Steam game wall, in VR, there are no icons for the previously played games, and it says Steam not found.
Some Steam VR-capable games are now not working in VR. Dirt Rally games only allow me to launch in cinematic (???) mode ?

Christ, what a mess.

Most of my newly introduced stuttering is noticeable when loading (more than usual).
But it stutters incredibly bad with low frames all the while the overlay is opened.

You can downgrade in the same way as you can with other games (by using steam console and getting older manifests of depots) but there are a lot of depots on SteamVR for different kinds of systems, split in parts as well. I am actually trying to find which exact one needs to be downgraded.

Yea my ♥♥♥♥ is going crazy i thought it was boneworks and my pc is fine but its crashing almost all the time and having different error messages all this was fine before the update i even factory reset my computerrrrrrrr nothings working

Turning off smoothing seem to fix what jittering i have in game.

But the steamvr menu is jittering when opened in game, regardless of the refresh rate. when I have no game loaded menu look fine. Loading screen in game are also jittering like crazy but once loaded everything is fine at 100% resolution and 120hz

I'm experiencing this mostly in VRChat and BL2VR since the recent updates.. for example when loading into a new world in VRChat, the framerate tanks down to 10-20 fps causing massive stutter and vomit inducing screen shaking with the slightest movement. A reinstall of USB drivers/Nvidia drivers didn't help sadly.

[Elrond Hubbard]

for me this is specifically causing stuttering during load screens. Really, really bad stuttering. Overall performance when actually running a game does not appear to have changed. Did not have this problem prior to the update.

[BALDRICK]

I have severe stuttering in two places.
-On loading screens in-game
-When I open the SteamVR UI, it doesn't matter if I'm inside my steam home or inside a game.

me too, valve please fix

Same issue here, loading screens in boneworks have heavy stuttering but I have no issues when I load into the maps.

[TheeSuperHero]

Yep, same problem here. Stuttering/dropping frames no matter if I’m in VRHome or in game. Hopefully we have a update that fixes it soon

Probably 27th at the earliest or 26th if they just roll back the update. Worst case scemario would be early 2020.

I like to prepare for the worst.
