Occulus Rift S - Can't get past splash screen
« on: October 09, 2020, 03:16:23 PM »
I've just bought an Oculus Rift S.  I've got a decent PC with a decent graphics card.  Every other game works fine in Oculus, but Aces High gets stuck on the splash screen in the headset.

I've reinstalled everything and checked all the settings.

I've tried going in via the Oculus library and also from the standard Ace High icon and selecting the launch in VR option.  In all cases I get stuck with the splash screen.  A can hear the Aces High Music and sound effects.  if I take the headset off, I can enter the game and fly and aircraft.

Any thoughts as to why I can't get past the splash screen in the headset?  Every other game works fine.

If you're stuck in the oculus screen look for the game on the menu bar.

whats "a decent computer and a decent graphics card"?

It sounds like you may be running out of resources.

Peek under the headset at the monitor. There's probably a dialog box that's popped up asking if you want to use your oculus headset. Click yes. Should be good to go.

Yes.  I can see the AH logo on the menu bar.  I click on this and I get the same thing.  AH music in the headset + splash  screen.

Tried that. I've seen the dialog box and ticked this.  No joy...

In clipboard/ options/ preferences/ VR, make sure VR is not disabled.
