Proper VR Update
Hp reverb G2.....Will we ever get a proper vr update at this point? It would be nice if there were some regular dev updates on the matter, keeping us informed or have I missed something? It's been more than a year and I'm getting tired of the checking and the continued waiting game. I enjoyed the game for a short time when the vr worked ok.....But that was a long time ago it seems. Since then it's been nothing but a bunch of frustrating disappointments!
Custom Egine.ini for vr
Custom Engine.ini for vr. I have a 4090 so adjust parameters for your system. This is my personal Pref after 380 something hrs in this game. I have adjusted the draw distance on trees etc so there is good detail around the track still without needing too much clutter in the distance cause let's be honest, who has time to take in the scenery when you on the limit! :D Feel free to tinker and give feedback if possible. Hope this helps someone. Just copy paste contents into an open instance of engine.ini located @ users//appdata/local/wrc/saved/config/windowsnoeditor. Don't forget to save. https://pastebin.com/e8mUXgE2 In game parameters foveated 1x dlss balanced shadows and shaders high Fog off Crowd, post proc, weather, mirrors, skiddies all off or low medium object med particles ultra track, textures high trees and shrubbery 😉
Not running as it should in VR
I'm having a problem in WRC and playing in VR. I have a really good setup comprising of an AM5 Ryzen 9 processor, RTX 4080 superoverclock, 128GB DDR5 memory and running from M.2 SSD. I find that no matter what settings I choose, my HTC Vive Pro 2 just stutters. It's mainly during loading, which tends to hurt my eyes as the displays become unbalanced but I do have a brurred line across the screen when racing. With my current setup I should be able to max out all my settings on any game but I am really struggling to get WRC to run good in VR. I haven't tried the 2D version as I am not interested in that. All the F1 titles run seamlessly, even when all settings are maxed out. I'd really like to figure out what is going on with this so I can continue playing. Thanks in advancePimax Crystal problem running the game in VR
Hello, I just got EA WRC but I have trouble starting the game in VR. I have a Pimax Crystal headset. What happens when I start the game is that I see the EA Sports video properly in the headset and I get the question whether I want to play the game in VR or not. After that I briefly see the health warning but then my headset shows only the standard steam VR grid. The game starts and I can hear the music but the steam VR grid is all that is displayed in the headset. I have changed to steamVR OpenXR. Any ideas how to start troubleshooting this?Stuck in loading screen
My game stucks often in loading screen in either before choosing a car or after. There is a promt to continue but nothing is registered. I can look around (I'm in VR) and music sound plays normally, but can't continue. Only solution so far has been close game from windows and restart, then it works pretty randomly. My setup: 13700kf 2070 super Valve index Win 11. Any solutions?
PSVR2 + Radeon GPU has unplayable stutter (100ms frame times) possibly EA AC bug
I should note that since the patch 1.8 I've logged dozens of hours with no major stutter or crashing issues on two other headsets, including after 1.9. Excluding the end-stage performance bug mentioned in another thread So this is exclusively since installing the PSVR2. And it seems Nvidia users don't have this issue. I've tried different drivers, they all have more or less the same result. Like this: A handful of times I was able to get stutter free gameplay after changing to a different driver, which forced EAWRC to recompile shaders. But then it would just crash after sometime. I also noticed that every time I reinstalled EA anti-cheat, the stutters would return. It's possible this maybe some odd interaction between EA anticheat and the shader cache, triggered by a new (to PC) headset? Can anybody else reproduce this? Ryzen 5600x Radeon 6800xt 32GB RAM Windows 11 PSVR2 headsetDynamic resolution doesn't work in VR.
It seems to drop the resolution scale to percentage you set for the upper limit, and then never adjusts. Also, it doesn't even really save between stages. You have to go into the basic graphics settings at the start of the stage, then back out, for the resolution scale to change. And there isn't an option to actually set a frame rate target for the dynamic res. I assume it was supposed to be the refresh rate?
New Patch - VR no longer working - Have tried Everything - Please Help
I know others are having the same problem as me since the new patch - im looking for any advice to try to resolve this I am on a reverb G2 headset I have tried all suggestions made here and on discord - including 2 full uninstalls of both Steam VR and WRC. Reduced the resolution of headset to the minimum, changed the OpenXR to SteamVR etc. nothing has worked and whenever i start WRC as soon as i click the prompt to enable VR, Steam VR immediately crashes. I can still play WRC in pancake mode if i dont change the Open XR settings - but as soon as i do i get a Steam VR crash. PLEASE -has anyone any suggestions on how to resolve - there seems to be minimal/ no response from EA, just helpful players on this forum and discord. I think EA could at lease respond with a suggestion - they must see this issue their side. All was fine pre-patchv1.9 frame timing not stable
While performance has never been great previous to v1.9 I had been able to have a mostly stable framerate with adjusted settings and lower render resolution. Since the 1.9 update the frame timing seems to have changed and there are now constant micro stutters even when the gpu is not maxed out. The gpu is busy for sure but it just never settles almost like the frame delivery / timing / pacing is being interrupted causing late frames to get dropped by the vr compositor.
Audio interface cannot be selected correctly
Meta Quest 3 AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT My computer has several audio interfaces: Realtek, Oculus and Focusrite. I expect the game to use the current primary device set in Windows, which it does in the flat screen version of the game. In VR it ignores this setting and always chooses the Focusrite. The only workaround is to disable the audio interface, then switch the primary to Oculus, then start the game and then reverse again afterwards. Let me know if you need further info. Thank you.Steering wheel of Builder Car in VR not moving
I build a car in career mode and tested all of the available steering wheels. All of them are turned 90° right and not moving at all. This also makes it hard to watch the gear and rpm etc. Also finishing the build and testing it in races did not change anything. Still no movement of the steering wheel. I am playing in VR without driver avatarIn career mode VR does not work. All other modes are fine.
I just started career mode and built my car but I am unable to test drive it. I get to the countdown screen prior to starting but I see two misaligned images in VR and I am unable to start, it appears the game is stuck at this point. The menus work but the race will not start. All other modes work just fine (moments, time trials, quick race etc). The same issue happens on different days, so the computer is being rebooted and is not an isolated issue for me, it always happens (only in career mode). UPDATE: I test drove my built car in pancake to continue the career mode. Races seem to work fine now in career mode. There seems to be an issue with just the test drive portion of the career mode.
VR Performance drops after several restart attemps in Game
Product: EA SPORTS™ WRC Platform:Steam-PC Summarize your bug The game runs smoothly at the beginning. However, after a few times(maybe 3-5 times) restart at the same stage, the framerates drops qute noticeable and the graphic starts tearing up. Exit the game and re-open it will solve the problem. It feels like a cache clearing will do the job but it is quite annoying. I am using Quest 3 with Virtual Desktop. How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%) Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play through the stage and hit the wall whatever, then click restart. Around 3-5 times, the framerate drops. Try to lower the graphic setting but nothing changes. I have to re-launch the game to fix it. And it works everytime. What happens when the bug occurs? Framerate drops, stuttering. This happens in the menu either coz I can feel it when I am navigating the menu and the WRC logo transition shows up. What do you expect to see? Consistent performance.
