    @Darthcanarie Any one else having this make sure you use occulus tray tool and set Super sampling to 1.2 no more, then go to your ProfileOptions_profile in documents then edit line GstRender.ResolutionScaleVR default is 0.8 increase for sharper image . Respecting your video card too high you will crash . Finally I find image recentreing does not work well use your Rift handcontroller to re-centre. Hopefully next patch will bring improvements.Back up any file before editing and do at own risk.Setting Volumetrics to low or medium makes no difference at all I am now running ultra GstRender.ResolutionScaleVR 1.600000 works well but I have got a 1080ti suspect most people will need lower.

    Hey, @Darthcanarie make sure that all drivers for windows are up to date. 

     

    You can also try to do a clean boot to see if there any programs messing with Star Wars: Squadrons and turn off any overlay programs for example Discord or Nvidia experience.

     

    Worth to reinstall the GPU drivers for your PC.

    Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have. 

     

    Let me know if this works or not for you. 🙂

    DX diag attached  yes latest drivers tried . The CTD is when the cutscene starts . All other cutscenes work for all maps and if I don not run VR cutscence will run . Only on VR . If other users can get on yavin map without CTD will try a re-install just in case . I use Rift S

    This is related to PD of rift . I run a PD of 1.4 . Setting PD to 0 allows the cutscence to run . 0 is too low to run and ridiculous to lower quality hugely  just to play a cutscence . Please alter the cutscene or give me a way not show cutscenes.

    Have you changed the Volumetric setting?

    Setting Volumetrics to low or medium. 

    Go to Video, set Graphics Quality to Custom, set Volumetric Quality to Low or Medium.

    update occulus tray tool overiding settings maximum supersampling is 1.2 too low for me so avoiding yavin until cutscene is fixed.

    @Darthcanarie setting volumetrics, effects, shadow to high . Shadows to sun everything else to ultra and can use 1.4 ss on the rift

    I'm having this problem too I'm using a Index with RTX 2080.

    Yavin always crashes on startup if I'm using VR and if I restart and rejoin the match it crashes on ship death or return to hanger.

    Ive tried reinstalling the game, reinstalling the video drivers, updating the firmware of the index nothing works,

    looks like I'm stuck with the Leaver penalty indefinitely.

    We have a player in our Squad with the exact same issue.  Everytime we get Yavin it crashes out for him.  Didn't use to a few weeks back, but now everytime Yavin comes up (which is far too often if you ask me), we lose a squad mate.  I see this thread is already a month old, is this issue dead or there a fix in the works?

    Edit: Quick and easy solution would be to remove Yavin from the game.  I think this would result in a scene similar to end of Return of the Jedi where the players would be the Ewoks and the devs would be C3PO. But maybe just fix the cutscene if that isn't a popular idea.  It's a very impressive skybox I suppose.
