Best option would be that players could choose that version which they want. And yes, it is very annoying how bad are some SteamVR-Versions work.
Actually my using version runs fine but i am frightend of the next update. :( Nightmare is waiting !

this is way more than just being annyoning.

Due to how bad the whole VR thing is made everywhere, we depend absolutely on how bad programmers do their updates from using our devices we paid high price for it, and they always ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up once in a while, this is a nightmare that has to stop.

if its not one update its another one, this is tremendously bad, people have the right to use the devices they paid for

Same, I've been on and off crashing almost daily, I'll get it up and running for a while and it then if I select certain worlds in VRChat it crashes. I go to check the integ then it says 1 file failed will grab, then I check it again and it fixes it. That's for VRchat, I've had to do the same thing for Steam VR. I want to think it's something to do with Meta's software for the quest 2 + SteamVR not wanting to work right.

For the Valve headsets or anything non-meta related, how is everything holding up?

One thing that I realized is that you can make things go less wild on you by "optimizing" steam on vr, like no overlay while playing and things like that.

And also unistalling steam vr and installing again (using previous rn because anything else is just horrendous) The oculus version is a freaking broken joke completely outdated.

The problem might reside on how dumb steam vr uses our cpu, it eats everything it can and once certain treshold is passed, even if its not too much, the app is not ready for it and just explodes. This is just dumbass programming.

Overall in the forum a wide range of headset are having problems, steam headset included, in this new version. Quest users 2/3 are having it way more rough because they also have to deal with meta ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, that also updated and, consequently, broken some stuffs too

Vr chat also have some dumb butt programming, but these crashes is not just vrc related. Whole games can crash, especially if you go virtual desktop a lot. Used to be able to record my gameplay with 90/60 on everything mostly, now steam vr is struggling again.

Decided to sell the device and not touching vr again, not worth it, so much troublemakers

My system: Quest 3 / Intel 9900K 32GB Memory / 3080ti 12 GB / Virtual Desktop over Wifi 6 / SteamVR

I use HIGH settings in game, which is lower than VERY HIGH and ULTRA.

I haven't had any crashing, but the game loading does slow down after about 90 minutes, so I tend to restart SteamVR and Derail Valley every 90 minutes.

I am not sure that is completely AltFutures fault - Steam is definitely screwing around with the SteamVR API as well.

It would be interesting to know what system parts are being used by those getting a lot of crashing.

Steam VR also crashing for me ruining a good long weekend, please provide a roll back facility since you seem to be having difficulty keeping Steam VR stable, My Quest 3 with Meta is looking better each time Steam VR stuffs up. using a Varjo Aero 3080TI on max rez running Skyrim VR, Well Im trying to......, its been stable for months til now.

Varjo Aero, game crashing since new version of Steam VR, has been faultless for months until the last 3 updates where its become less stable and less smooth each update, its now its crashing within minutes, more so when the resolution is increased to max, please provide the old SteamVR for remediation at least until the problem is solved. Please, Please Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (yes i'm begging as i'm completely at your mercy) (Added as error reporting doesn't allow send)

I am unsure of this being interesting ot not. Some version of Steam vr (which are also tied to version of your quest, and the metaquest app, which are AWFUL too on their updates) would work flawlessly, and other wont even boot up or crash every single time.

On top of that, people fail to realize this is also dangerous for the device, accs, and your PC. something might break.

This is such a nightmare. updates= problems, always.

Steam VR has been trash as long as I have been using VR. I have transferred games away from steam when ever possible just due to this. I do not buy thru steam because of this. If there is any way to avoid Steam VR, I advise it. Open composite works in most of my cases. I actually came here because steam just screwed up again and crashed my game. It is pure TRASH.
