[OCULUS RIFT] Some Games Play in Desktop But Not in Headset

[fort]

I'm just trying to play Payday VR, I am Opt into the vr_beta. Overkill did add Rift support, but it still won't work inside the headet. And Ideas?

Same issue here with the same game... Other steam games ( Gorn, Space pirate trainer ) work perfectly.

To launch in VR mode, you have to RIGHT CLICK the game from the LIBRARY and select the VR OPTION

Oh yeah, I'm opted into VR when I want to try to play. But I'll just wait for Payday 2 VR to release.

And what I mean by it on the desktop is the VR Version is on the desktop, but not showing up in my headsert

You sure you have "Unknown Sources" enabled on Oculus Home ?

[fort]

Yeah, I do. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to play other VR games

Again, you are running the VR Beta by right clicking on your game and select Launch VR Beta. You can't just hit the play button.

I know, I am into the VR Beta.

The Oculus menu app is so pushy. It keeps running over the top of Steam VR, not letting go of the headset, even when the app is running on the main screen.

What to do?

There's some tutorials that shoe you how to not have oculus running with steamvr
