Quadg Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 does anyone else's rift go to standby occasionally when trying to start DCS 2.5? it does not happen every time i start. what happens is it turns on for the loading screen with the hangar so i can see the mig 29. but when it gets to the main menu the rift goes to standby. and i can hear the main menu music. if i take the rift off, the repeat on the 2d screen is still running and showing the rift moving etc. restarting the oculus service does not fix it. but rebooting does. it works fine straight after a reboot. anyway, it has only started with 2.5 and it only happens at the main menu. i don't run oculus home or the tray tool when playing dcs. i have updated my video drivers to the latest. and reinstalling oculus has not fixed it. my sensors and everything are okay. its strange that it only happens in this one specific place, and i can guarantee it happening if i leave my rig on for hours.

hansangb Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Sounds like a bug if it's reproducible. But you should check your USB or try a different one. Also, check the power settings on usb if you haven't already https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/930312/the-allow-the-computer-to-turn-off-this-device-to-save-power-power-man hsb HW Spec in Spoiler --- i7-10700K Direct-To-Die/OC'ed to 5.1GHz, MSI Z490 MB, 32GB DDR4 3200MHz, EVGA 2080 Ti FTW3, NVMe+SSD, Win 10 x64 Pro, MFG, Warthog, TM MFDs, Komodo Huey set, Rverbe G1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JIMJAM Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Happens to me. Maybe 5 seconds after loading, the DCS screen remains on the tv but the goggles go black. I use to reboot but all I do now is simply go to device manager/action/scan for hardware changes. Then Oculus works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadg Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 i have juggled all the usb ports for the sensors and HMD to force windows to identify and reload drivers. seems to have fixed it , ill see how it goes over the weekend. i should have done this first but my USB are hard to get too :) too many things getting updates over the new year :) JIMJAM, if it does happen again ill try the hardware scan.

Magnanimous Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Someone said on the oculus forums that’s it’s the latest Nvidia drivers. I’m going to roll back tonight to see if that is indeed the problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlacleyCole Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I don’t use oculus software make it an admin to run permission and start dcs as a regular user then oculus doesn’t run and you don’t have to deal with it at all. When you go in 2.5 go to France and enable vr if you haven’t it will restart and once your positive dcs is loading don the rift hmd and go flying use a second shortcut for non vr loading for mission editing or seting up new hardware.

I’m going to roll back tonight to see if that is indeed the problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I had the same problem as you are experiencing and determined it to be caused by the NVIDIA driver upgrade. The driver for my GEForce Armor 1070, latest Windows patch and Oculus were in conflict. I couldn't find a driver for my gpu so contacted their live chat and asked for a link for the previous version. When installing an earlier version you will be asked if you want Express or Advanced install. Choose Advanced and click on the box for replacing the current v with the older one. I'd also recommend not installing the GEForce Experience as this has been an issue for others I see in the forums.

I’m going to roll back tonight to see if that is indeed the problem. What has been happening with the last two versions of Nvidia drivers, is the Headset - after using Oculus Home and closing Oculus Home, oftentimes will not release. You can see the light in the headset remains white, instead of turning to amber ( standby). Then, if it is that way, next time you put on the headset you will get no display in the headset. Only way around it is to either reboot the PC, which stops the Oculus Service and then starts it again on boot up. Or, using Oculus Tray Tool, you can stop the service until you see the headset does go into standby ( usually will hear a sound and the light will turn to amber), and then start the service again with the Oculus Tray Tool. I am running the latest Nvidia drivers, and I use the Oculus Tray Tool stop and then start service method when mine does that. Gets control back into the Rift each time. I know Oculus is aware and are supposedly working on it.

Mr_sukebe Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Just had mine fall over. However, at least I've identified why this time. Turned out that I had automatic updates ticked, which was allowing Oculus to update it's software whenever it felt like it. Lovely.

Pretty sure Oculus is going to update each time they roll out release updates. Not much you can do about that, they usually roll out staggered over a few days time when they do.
