December 5, 20232 yr Hi All,I cannot use VR in P3Dv6.0.36. All other flight sims do not have this problem - P3Dv5.4, XP11.55, XP12.08, and MSFS can all run VR. In P3Dv6, a message pops up stating that memory is running low. If I switch out of VR, everything is ok. I've tried reducing the graphics settings to very low, but that doesn't work either.My system is a late 2019 Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-9900K CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GHz, 64GB RAM, RTX 2080 Ti card (I think 16 GB VRAM).Is anyone else experiencing this problem?Thanks,Jim Jim BlakeCaptain, SWA Virtual AirlinesReal World C172 Pilot, AOPA #06034701
December 5, 20232 yr Your RTX2080i has 11 GB, but it should certainly be sufficient with low settings. Which headset are you using?

I find it a bit ominous that I can't seem to find any info about version 6 and VR. Only thing I found was non-V6 specific. https://www.prepar3d.com/SDKv4/prepar3d/virtual_reality/virtual_reality.html Edited December 6, 20232 yr by HiFlyer We are all connected.....

December 6, 20232 yr Author Thanks for those links, guys! I was able to make some recommended changes to p3d.cfg file AND I copied the contents of the virtualreality.xml file from v5 into v6's vr file, which did not have any configuration options listed...weird. I was able to get it to work. Here is my virtualreality.xml file, in case anyone needs an example - <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <SimBase.Document Type="ConfigurationFile" version="6,0"> <Descr>AceXML Document</Descr> <VirtualReality.VirtualRealitySettings> <HMDDisplayMode>Single-Pass</HMDDisplayMode> <OnScreenDisplayMode>Double</OnScreenDisplayMode> <EnableZoom>False</EnableZoom> <SyncMode>Pre-Render</SyncMode> <EnableHiddenAreaMesh>True</EnableHiddenAreaMesh> <ResolutionScale>1.000000</ResolutionScale> <MaxViewCount>Four-Views</MaxViewCount> <EnableMirrorTexture>False</EnableMirrorTexture> </VirtualReality.VirtualRealitySettings> </SimBase.Document> I will do some test flights...
