Fication from clara; are you the individual Dale mentioned or another with a similar issue?

If OpenXR could be made to work with AH it would solve a lot of this. HT and I spoke (or at least tried to--had grandson ack) about it. It basically bypasses all the SteamVR overhead crapola. ATM I'm running a Reverb G2 and I need to run WMR for SteamVR to run AH with that headset. I've tried every which way to get Opencomposite to work with AH but it's a no go. I actually got the dev for that to give it a go and he couldn't either.

I cant even get the game to load with or with out, it hangs up after it gives you the option to select vr or no vr.

You're running "WMR for SteamVR" if you're using a G2, it's a different apphttps://store.steampowered.com/app/719950/Windows_Mixed_Reality_for_SteamVR/. WMR is a different animal so it's not "regular" SteamVR. It's confusing. The Cosmos, however, IS a Steam headset.

Hi, i am the Player  with this issue!

I Use a Pimax 8KX Headset since more than a Year, befor a Pimax 5K+.

I had no Problems so far when i was on Windows 10. Unfortunately i must setup the system completely new and switched to Windows 11.

Other Games from Steam run in VR mode.

Scenarion in Windows 10:

Pimax Tool Running in the Background, Startet AC, answered Question if to play VR with yes and all was good.

Scenario with Windows 11:

Pimax Tool Running in the Background, Startet AC, answered Question if to play VR with yes and Steam VR pops up and tells me there is no VR Headset.

If i Install AH from Steam, start ist from Steam with VR it starts, but i can't play with my original Account which i use for more than 15 Years know.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks in Advance

Just a suggestion...

Start steam first, maybe play something else in vr there...

Exit it so you are back in the steam room...whatever that is called...

Then go back to desktop keeping steam going and start AH

See if it sees the vr headset then

Good luck!

Are the Pimax headsets compaitible with SteamVR? I have no idea. I just know they're a different animal.

Which version of Pitools are you on?

I found this exchange on Reddit, indicating it might be a problem with Pitools and Win 11:

My issue is, I did a fresh install of the game, when you try to open it asks do you wish to use your open vr headset. It does not matter which option I select, the game hangs at a white screen and does nothing. Also, this is not the steam version of the game.

Are you saying it worked prior to the new install?
