Hi there, TheSmartChicken. I'm sorry you are experiencing this issue. Have you tried updating your graphics drivers? Some users have experienced crashing on older NVIDIA GeForce drivers and updating may help. Please let me know if this doesn't resolve your problem.

My drivers were up to date, I use an AMD R9 390

Update: I can now enter the main lobby but it runs horribly at around 10 FPS with all settings down, trying to launch into a game causes the game to crash.
Still no fix :(

Update 2: So this is bizarre, as said before, the game still stutters and preforms horribly in the main lobby, with most of the time it just crashes out right.
Trying to join any poker game, even trying to create my own, results on the game closing itself.
HOWEVER, after fighting the stuttering menu, I managed to join a Blackjack game; and while on the Blackjack table, the game ran perfectly? High performance and low input lag. Although the game crashed once I left the table to rejoin the main lobby.

Basically, the game is really broken for me atm and I have no idea why.

My files are corrupted either, as this is happening after I've verified my game cache, reinstalled multiple times and even tried installing it on a different drive. :/

Another quick lil comment, when the game does freeze in the lobby, I can actually still hear noises within the game. I can even hear the sound effect for when I open the menu. However, even w/ screen mirroring on, the display is frozen and leads to a crash after a short while.

So it seems to be an issue specifically in the entrance lobby? Thank you, I will forward this information to the rest of the team.

Have you checked if SteamVR is running at a higher than normal resolution for PokerStars VR (above 100%), or if Super Sampling is set too high in PokerStars VR watch menu? Just some trouble shooting ideas, but I will let the team know. Thank you so much.

Cheers for this! I believe so, although it crashes as soon as I try to enter into a poker game. That being said, blackjack still works for some odd reason. And I can still hear audio when the game freezes while in the lobby, but the display is constantly flicking between 2 frozen frames.

I also found that opening my watch as soon as I enter the lobby triggers the game to crash almost every time, so could be a loading bug?

As for the resolution, it is at the standard 100%. I tried lowering the resolution as minimal as possible but the game still preformed from 9-10fps - exactly the same as it did on 100%.
So I wonder if something is occurring during the loading of the entrance lobby, like a memory leak? Never had this before though.

Thanks for the response though, lmk if you need some bug logs or something :)

I apologize, that sounds incredibly frustrating. Do you have the microphone enabled for this game in your Windows settings? Some players have reported that being related to framerate issues on PC (not sure why, Windows is weird about some things, such as out of sync clock breaking VOIP.)

Yes I do.

Here too. Lobby works fine, bit stuttering but only in the first seconds... but everytime I want to enter or host a poker table, I get a black or blue screen in my Reverb G2 and after a while the game closes itself. All my drivers are up2date.... :(

Mám HP reverb G2 a po posledních aktualizacích jsem měl podobné problémy s touto hrou. Do vstupního loby jsem se dostal, ale když jsem chtěl k nějakému stolu, tak hra se pořád načítala až se zhroutila většinou do WMR prostředí, občas i do SteamVR. Různými pokusy jsem přišel na toto nastavení po kterém většinou přistoupím k určenému stolu, tedy si k němu sednu, maximálně mě to vrátí do vstupního loby. Od té doby žádné zhroucení hry. Ve hře v nastavení grafiky jsem nastavil následující : MSAA - 4x, texture resolution - MID a super sampling - Medium(1.25) . Při vyšších nastavení nastavení vznikají uvedené problémy. Ještě jsem zjistil, že stačí na pravém ovladači zmačknout tlačítko Steam (tři vodorovné proužky), tak pokud vzniklé ovládací okno je stabilní, tak hra je OK . Pokud je obraz trhaný hra se bude hroutit.

I have an HP reverb G2 and after the last updates I had similar issues with this game. I got into the entrance lobby, but when I wanted to go to a table, the game kept loading until it crashed mostly into the WMR environment, sometimes into SteamVR. Through various attempts, I came to this setting, after which I usually approach the designated table, so I sit down at it, it will return me to the entrance lobby at most. No game crashes since then. In the game in graphics settings, I set the following: MSAA - 4x, texture resolution - MID and super sampling - Medium (1.25). At higher settings, the following problems occur. I also found out that all you have to do is press the Steam button (three horizontal bars) on the right controller, so if the resulting control window is stable, then the game is OK. If the image is choppy the game will collapse.
