VR Headset initialization failed

[Sir Sid]

Can someone help me, I get this error when trying to play in VR. Playing with HTC VIVE

[Eugene Forward]

Try installing the latest HTC Vive drivers/software. Connect your headset to the PC before(!) launching the game. Then check if the VR selected as output device in the game settings.

Also please note that the image in the headset will appear only after loading the game (exactly the driving itself). Just in the main menu you will not see anything in the VR.

I installed vive software but it still doesn't work :(

I got it working somehow by deleting openvr dll's and xinput dll

Hi Eugene, I'm having this issue as well. I'm selecting the Monitor + VR Goggles as output device. It seems to kind of work randomly, but most of the time I get this initialization failed error. Any more insight on this?

Somebody worte that set SteamVR off before launching can help solve problem like you have.

NizvErG, Could you clarify please? Do you mean that Steam VR should be closed before I launch the program or alternatively that Steam VR should be open when I launch? Thanks in advance!

Nevermind. I closed Steam VR prior to starting the game. This fixed the issue. Thank you for your help! This is a very promising drivers ed tool!

For me it's the same. If I launch it with or without steam VR it just doesn't work.

Hello,

Please note that the game officially supports only Oculus Rift and HTC Vive VR headsets. Vive Pro and Rift S should work.

Regarding the Index, Quest, Cosmos or any WMR-compatible devices - for now we do not have these headsets by our hands, and do not have plans to supported them in near future. Sorry.

Also please take into account these advices if you use VR with City Car Driving:

- Update your VR headset software & drivers.
- Update your video card driver to the latest version.
- Make sure you connect your VR headset before(!) starting the game.
- Do not launch/use SteamVR. If SteamVR is already running – close it before launching the game. Then just run the game in a usual way and select the VR output in the in-game settings menu.
- VR activates only after the driving session start (it does not work in the main menu).
- If you feel you still need to make lower motion sickness effects you can try disabling some of the camera inertion effects as described here - https://steamcommunity.com/app/493490/discussions/0/3277925755433585773/

All supported devices are listed in our system requirements.

Not supporting Quest is the same thing as not supporting the majority of VR headsets. Most people have a Quest headset.
