After 10 minutes of fiddeling about trying to start AMS2 in VR (P3 on Kansai) in different ways using
And, to my big surprise, it's raining. I have not seen any info on that (am I missing something?), so all my preparations was for clear weather. Never mind. Rain is fine. I just would have liked to know up front. But that's like in real life I guess.
Then the race starts and I end up 9th, second to last, no surprise there, as one of the slowest driver in the slowest, but coolest car (the Rocco) . I wait until the screen with "Vote to start" comes up, and then I log of. Now I find that my race is not registered in the standings.
This was my third AMS2 race. I have had the same starting problems every time. And now I am also not registered. Can anybody tell me if I am doing something wrong? Or is it just the combination of Rift S, SRS and AMS2 that just isn't compatible?
Will I get banned for not racing now, even though I have spent an hour on it, and finished the race...?
- the Join VR button in the app (nothing happens, the first 5 minutes or so, but after a while a pop up suggests it tries to start AMS2 using -forcevr, but it just starts on the monitor),
- my normal way of starting AMS2 in VR with a shorcut to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steam.exe" steam://launch/1066890/othervr -silent -sportsplay 85.10.198.91:27015 (I am using Oculus Rift S, so this is the way) (starts AMS2, but not in VR, and it always starts VR when I am not registered to a race, so it's not the shortcut that's wrong),
- adding the -forcevr to the shortcut (same as without forcevr, it starts but only on the screen) or
- starting with and without forcevr in Steam (as above),
