- i used the -novid start launch option, didnt work.

not sure what else to do now, i have a pretty beefy rig and i obviously just got the q3 so im at a loss here

also just got quest 3 and wont launch

tried a few different thing got it past going to home in steam vr up to the game loading at which point it hard crashed my pc to the point i had to reboot it 2x to get it back to normal.after a couple rounds of this i give up rather then abuse my pc and gpu. this game is one of the gold standards for me not even sure if the devs are aware a hotfix is needed.

Do other PCVR games run OK with it?

Open the Source 2 console with the tilde key "~" and take a peek.

(it might feel like you're searching for a needle in a haystack, but more than likely it has logged something that stands out...errr....to a Source 2 modder, at the very least).

Tried it with Quest 2 and it didn't work either.

i have given this thing quite a workout in the last 24 hours. the hand tracking seemed really good when i played a bow and arrow game holopoint. robo recall had me throwing bots with insane accuracy and power. was very easy to catch and throw things in alyx .
has resolution similar to a good monitor very happy with the clarity and ease of use.
more people will have a positive exp with this headset and it will be a huge leap in getting the gen population to adopt this. mixed reality was much better then i expected. its pretty functional sight and easy to mistake it for seeing things w/o the headset on. good 3d perception and colors on the pass through. could see a point in the future with extremely good cameras being able to pinch and zoom for eagle vision, night vision, overlays for information and virtual computing .most everyone would never want to take them off if they could get to the point of being as comfortable as a pair of ski goggles.
the demo in occulus home is pretty strong if you are on the fence about MR gaming this should be enough to see the potential. have not really looked at all the mixed reality stuff to see if we have a standout game like a " robo recall" or superhot level title.the best app might end up just being something like virtual desktop when they release multi window support.
alyx is sort of my go to game for testing and it lives up to the rep once again. the detail on the russels is incredible. my first time launching on virtual desktop. 4090 card supports av1 encoding and it was only late last night i got it fired up on av1 from virtual desktop. seeing things i missed with quest 2 amazing how far we chave come just since the game released . between av1, 4090, increased smoothness and the headset. the experience is as good as i ever dreamed of when i strapped on the first cv1 when it came out years ago

non vr optimized titles like fallout 4 where far object detail lacked needs a fresh visit. onward can now see guys up to medium distance. before only up close. people are like blobs now only at far distances . iracing is my primary motivation for buying the new headset and it was also a great exp.

Thanks for the detailed response, that's really good to hear. Those display resolutions start to make all the difference in VR, I noticed a massive difference going from the OG Vive to the Vive Pro 2 and as you say it's approaching what you'd get from a decent monitor in terms of image detail perception, even at a distance. Cool to have that MR capability too.

ok so update . after i changed open vr to oculus and played some racing for a day. i went back and now alyx fails to start. did not work with airlink or virtual desktop but i think i have a clue as to what might be the problem. when i was able to start it a day or 2 ago i was not sure what i had changed other then it said 2 files were missing and that it would get the files however when i launched the steam vr is did not show me one of the enviroments it was the wall with all your games on it. this seems to be missing . possibly this is the problem.i went into general in headset for steam vr and turned off show library now i only have the environment and no way to launch .

[soulofgpl]

another update got it working again. it definitely has to to with the vr home environment being loaded. i tried the beta again got a hard crash swapped back to the normal turned home on and off a few times in the options restarted steam vr to recognize headset not sure what was the solution but it worked again in airlink and virtual desktop

No issues for me. No matter if SteamVR home on or off. Playing since day 1 with the Quest 3 - works all the time. o_O

OpenXR is set for Quest 3. Not OculusVR.

Guys tell me when you play for the first time !! Do you go in the setting and increase a specific setting quality because you think you cumputer was very strong and able to andle it ?
