Hi,
I ran into a problem with VR Images not being displayed in my Lenovo WMR Headset when using Vulkan but I'd guessed it was probably something messed up with my OS or Installation,
However I've now completely wiped and reinstalled Windows 10 and I'm still seeing the problem and as before OpenGL work fine.
Has anyone else encountered this and ideally know what I can do to resolve this ?
Thanks
What graphics card do you have and which driver version are you using?
I have a AMD RX 5700 currently running 20.4.2 but I've seen the issue with all versions of the driver out since the FS 2 Vulcan release
This is a known issue:
You can try running in Vulkan with the default Cessna and a default scenery....
I have no problems in Vulkan with Lenovo Explorer and a GTX 1060
On Steam I use the beta version of Windows Mixed Reality for Steam VR with better performance.
I normally use the beta version of Steam VR too. Hope this will help.
The game isn't crashing - I can see the output that should be being sent to the headset on the main monitor it just isn't being displayed on the headset
This has been a problem with Oculus for months. It's said that it's a graphic card driver problem, but the driver has been updated several times. I've given up Vulkan and uses OpenGL
Thing is this isn't an Occulus headset - this is a WMR headset using the SteamVR and the windows Windows Mixed Reality for SteamVR plug-in
Vulkan gives me just about a 10% increase in frame rate so running in OpenGL is pretty good too in Windows Mixed Reality....
I did have black screens in the WMR headset but those are more Windows related (also a problem with Oculus headsets) and then you should have the same problem while running in OpenGL....
But it's a good thing to have USB power management disabled for the headset, especially this one:
I'm not sure what's changed but I am now getting an error message from steam when I try running FS2 in VR mode using Vulkan
"Wrong Video Card
Please plug your headset into the same graphics card as your primary monitor."
Needless to say my Headset is plugged into the same monitor and as before it all works just fine in Open GL mode.
Is it possible that this is related to the tm.log showing that in Vulkan VR mode the game seems to be detecting 2 graphics cards rather than just the single one installed

With Vulkan in non-VR mode I get this in tm.log

I've attached fully copies of both logs
Weird. I had that when I first started, I did a computer update and everything worked fine. I have an Odyssey +
