vr doesnt work

[star]

so i recently got a quest 3s and i use a link cable but the vr doesnt work and i dont know why ive seen that this has been a problem for people i just want to know if anyone knows how to fix it

[elliotwatson17]

I would also like to know an answer

[Ridcully]

I have a quest 3 and use a link cable as well. I have no issues

For any meaningful answers, a few more details are required.
What happens?
Are there any error messages
How do you start NMS
What do you see in the headset?

As a quick guide, this is the way I get NMS to start in VR:

1) Ensure that a link cable is properly connected to the computer, but not to the headset.
2) Turn on Computer.
3) Once the computer has properly booted, start Steam
4) Once Steam is running, put on the Quest Headset and turn that on.
5) Once the headset has started, connect the link cable to the headset.
6) You should see a prompt asking if you want to enable quest link. Select YES
7) If the prompt does not come up, it may have been disabled previously. Just go to quick settings, select quest link from there and enable.
8) This should start the Oculus App on the computer and your headset.
9) From there, select Steam VR from your library. If Steam VR is not in your Oculus Library yet, just Lift the headset from your eyes, and start Steam VR from the desktop. You should only need to do this once, after that, SteamVR will be in your Oculus Library
10) Once SteamVR is running, start NMS (while wearing the headset)

Good Luck

i have done all of that and i am able to get in the game but when i launch my save it just loads forever and if it does load it just instantly crashes and sorry for not seeing this yesterday

[Ridcully]

I can suggest two things to try from here.
1) Try loading your game in pancake mode. If it crashes, then it's an issue with the save itself. If the game does load, just get to a different location. Hop into the spaceship and move anywhere else, get out and then quit the game, then try loading in VR again.
2) Try starting a new game in VR and see if that works.

cheers...

yea i have the same problem when i use the link cable on my 3s for some reason it jus wont load into the game at all but for whatever reason when i use the steam link app it does load in its really annoying i cant figure out why this game dont wanna work with a cable lol

[AgentFisher]

Its affected tons of people for months on oculus/SteamVR
They refuse to address it as they focused on PSVR and in turn tanked the PCVR performance.

Is that a "cable" issue ? i Play over Wifi and its nice.
