Using OpenComposite for OpenXR Sim Racing

Ойындар

SteamVR and OpenVR in general is a great system which has enabled many gamers to enjoy VR from the freedom of vendor lock-in by providers like Meta. It isn’t perfect however and whilst it comes along with some great motion smoothing that has a cost. Unfortunately if you are using the Valve Index that cost is the price of doing business. As a first party SteamVR headset you have no other option. Those of us using third party headsets though like the Reverb G2, we have another path to using VR on our Steam games. OpenXR.
Open Composite can be found on Gitlab via gitlab.com/znixian/OpenOVR or the direct download on znix.xyz/OpenComposite/runtim...

    I just did the switch to it and wanted to see, what others experience. In the Reverb G2 I can say finally my Assetto Corsa is running like it was on my Oculus back then considering motion reprojection and frametimes. With SteamVR motion vector was unstable even with my gpu around 70-85% usage. Now my gpu and cpu usage is a bit lower AND most importantly motion vector and frametimes are consistent. Thank you for your additional infos!

    I´ve been using OpenXR for some days now and I can tell the FPSs in my Quest 2 are much more stable, and I didn´t even spend much time setting it up or anything, quite sure it can get better if I put some time in it.

    OpenXR made iRacing in VR playable for me on the hp reverb g2. I used to only be able to play for a few min, now I can do an hour no issues. Love the hat ;)

    Thanks man, I have far too many hats 😂 Considering how much money people have to spend for a small percentage improvement the fact we can get a free boost using OpenXR is amazing and that can easily be the difference between playable and not.

    Hi, RF2 does not work anymore with opencomposite/openxr. I think the last update of RF2 broke to use openxr. Any help would be great....thanks

    I always used my rift s in opencomposite for rfactor 2, but in the new pc opencomposite no longer works. :( At first, an error appeared like "openxr call failed, aborting, 189," etc.., etc, and now rfactor 2 is not seen by opencomposite and always starts in steam vr.

    Is that a newer version than you were using before? I've noticed the latest release gives me a bunch of errors too. I'd try rolling back to an older version and see if that helps at all.

    SteamVR now uses the OpenXR runtime by default for SteamVR so you get some performance improvement. Unfortunately you can't use a manufacturer specific OpenXR driver as your manufacturer is Steam/Valve itself so you are locked into using SteamVR only. Hopefully that explains your situation and doesn't confuse you more 😅
