  1. Thanks! Looks as if it was installed, but this at least enabled me to find it and adjust settings. I also pinned the launch button to my task bar for future access. Not sure about the motion reprojection. I do want to somehow disable my monitor from mirroring the game as that seems as if it would overtax my video card which always seems to be at max load playing this sim.
  2. Thank you, Rick! Will give that a try. I notice we share a couple of similar components :^)
  3. Got it! I just watched a YT video where the user just spoke "flashlight on" into the built in mic and a kind of night vision window of his desk and keyboard appeared inside the VR sim. I tried it, but nothing happened. The logo/text in the upper left corner of the app window was a pinkish color. It read "OpenXR." You can see it on many of the YT tutorials about setting up MSFS for VR. The first tutorial I followed instructed to set the render scale (inside FS) to 60 or 70. The latest I watched reversed/updated that and said to instead set it to 100, while setting render scaling in OpenXR to 50, which caused me to realize I can't find the OpenXR app I installed. I am nearsighted and don't wish to try wearing my glasses in the G2 for fear of scratching the lenses. My left eye has degraded a lot compared to the right over the past year, but I can't/won't visit the optometrist until after I get the vaccine. Even then, I plan to purchase the prescription mod lenses for this headset, so I can't really fairly judge the clarity of the headset from my personal perspective. Looks pretty good with my right eye, however, but with a narrow sweet spot. Moving my eyes and not my head reveals lots of blurriness. Moving my head to keep the sweet spot centered gives pretty good results clarity wise. I see no screen door effect at all. Using the TM Hotas One plus mouse/kb for controls. It was cheapest solution until I start yearning for more realism and cough up the bucks for a Honeycomb kit with pedals. I think this Hotas kit works really well, though giving accurate control with the joystick and I can map other controls like trim, flaps, brakes, etc to the various buttons. I'll see if I can map the Windows + Y or CTRL + TAB function to one of them so I don't have to lift up the visor. Thank you!
  4. Hi, all! Recently completed a high end build, specifically to support MSFS2020 using the Reverb G2. I watched many YT tutorials and eventually got up and running. Kind of. I purchased and downloaded the sim, then downloaded and installed WMR, Steam, SteamVR, and OpenXR. After all that, I was able to have a go in a Cessna 152 for a bit. Beyond fun! Now my issue is I can't recall how I got it all going or from what app I should be launching the sim. Every session seems to require a lot of trial and error before I can have the sim running in the G2 instead of my monitor. The settings in the sim say I switch between the two using CTRL + TAB, but that never works and another message says to use Windows key + Y, which sometimes works. What ALWAYS works for me is a concise, clear STEP-BY-STEP checklist of clicks and selections I can print out and learn through repitition which always result in a successful launch. What frustrates me to infinity is that out of all the so-called "experts" out there in cyberspace, such a checklist has so far been impossible to find. What ever happened to the simple double-click of a game icon to launch a game to the default start screen?? My other issue, for now, is that I wish to tweak settings in OpenXR, which I KNOW I downloaded and installed to get all this going, but now has gone MIA and I cannot find the app anywhere on my system. I will have more questions down the road, but if someone could please help me just get the steps down to the simplest way to launch a VR session of this sim, as well as where I can find my OpenXR app, that would go a long way to prevent my heaving all of this right into the garbage barrel. (not really, but that is how I feel right now). Your time and expertise is most appreciated, and I promise to pay it forward once I have it down myself. :^)
