11:18 THE BEAT DROPS
I was sitting there struggling to hear the video up until about 11:20 when my eardrums got blown out.
Great video, and has meant that I can now use FS in VR. Your comment re: only switching to VR headset when in the game, changed everything. The hideous stutter and black out whilst the game was loading just jarred everything and I thought until this video, FS was unplayable. I have a 3060Ti and Finally can place this thing nice and smooth. Cheers for the vid!
Hi thanks for the video share, its been incredibly helpful getting me on the right footing with the Quest 3 and M$ anniversary flight sim. I'm getting some nice play with the Rx6800xt and then went back for a tweak and made it better again, and there's still more to tweak 👍😁
Outstanding job. You saved me a bunch of time and expense!
This helped me and my buddy get flight sim working on the VR! Thank you so much!!!! Subbed!!!
Great guide. The best I've seen. Thanks for doing it.
You must not have watched this one then.

Thank you for this! Incredible job
Thank you. This video got me up and running
OK, some steps missed here. So I installed oculus software, got link working. I have MSFS2020 installed (without steam) and no SteamVR or OpenXR or whatever installed and.... works fine. I have a 3060Ti and i10700 but was seeing buttery smooth graphics. But I did notice that the dials were quite blurry. I upped the render resolution and maintained the frame rate, using 72Hz on the headset. This didn't graphically look much different. When I change the sim to New York all hell broke lose - so I reduced render resolution and it didn't help but it turns out it was the shrubbery that is central park. Turn your shrubs off and you can fly around NY no problem. One other thing I noticed which I guess you'll not know until you tried it is that the FOV is quite narrow when flying your plane. I got used to MSFS on my ultra wide monitor. But being as the tracking works so well I found its much easier to fly circuits etc with VR so its fine.
Going to try it
Thanks to you I could make everything to work. The lack of resolution of VR is very deceptive, tho. Inside the cabin I can't barely see the buttons...and the GPS screens are completely unreadable 🥺
eyetracker is superior atm vr just isn't good.
I've never used Steam VR as I just got my first VR headset quest 2....I'll have to try this out. thanks for the video!
Do you know if this process works without using steam vr? I got my sim from the microsoft store so dont really want to have more resources being used up by having oculus desktop app and steam vr open simultaneously
@@OzzySafa yes. You don't need steam vr to fly.... Just need a oculus link cable. Don't buy the expensive one from them.
@@FastRedDragon1984 with the virtual desktop app?i do not wish to use cable
@@OzzySafa yes virtuall desktop.
Great work & bang on. Slainte 👍
A really helpful video. I've been swapping between the oculus app and steam vr's openxr. I have found that oculus' version is a little smoother, although after seeing your video I might swap back and try steam vr again.
Yes the oculus app is known to run smoother. A lot of others said they see performance drops when they use steam vr
@@OzzySafa does the o app force you to also stream an image on the pc? if not thats got to make a difference.
steam support sucks
CTRL + Tab doesn’t pull it up in my headset
helpful and its almost two years later! thanks :)
Thank you so much for this!!
hello from switzerland and thank you very much for this great Video! Lucky Greetings Werner
Very helpful…thank you!
split screen was a bit of a distraction . great info for sure. thanks,,,,, appreciate the video.
Thank You!
Hi,
Great video!!! It work verry well for me now, with an RTX 3080. 40fps, 80hz res 1.2, settings in the game by default, render scale 100.
I will try with 72hz to up the résolution.
Thx a lot!!!
I dont know why, but steamvr seems to work better than oculus vr with your settings.
Maybe it s due to the vr option in nvidia panel that is set to "2" ?!?
thanks so much my dad will be so happy
couldn't get it to work n my pc. When i try to switch to VR mode it just flashes a blank screen and then goes back to the menu screen
hi! when i hit ctrl + tab, the screen goes to that split screen elft eye right eye view, but thats also what i see in my goggles as a 2d screen.. im trying to do this wirelessly via wifi6 router via steam
Will this work for the Quest 1 ?, Thanks
Excellent video. Went witht the Oculus 2 based upon your video.
Thanks! You won’t be disappointed with it.
@@BartmansBits I got it and I'm so not disappointed with it! However, waiting on pullin the trigger on a strap, but I might have to do it sooner as using the original strap for some time the sides rub on the black foam and making the strap turn black...its gross... anyone have this issue wearing the orig strap for a long time? Aside from this getting those settings right in msfs is a chore but worth it! Thanks again...look forward to more vids
Just looking at this, Nvidia control panel for global for pre-rendered frames is already default set to 1.
I was the 1k liker your welcome and thanks for the video
I got it to work but my frames in vr are just so low, even when I lower the settings, but on high end settings in non vr my FPS is like 124 :/
I bought the Oculus Quest 2 for my MFS2020 with the hope of being able to fly in VR but the graphics are awful despite having tried everything they say on the forums. Can you help me on the basic steps? thank you
Thanks. Looks like a PITA setting this up. Can you fly this with the Quest controllers ?
Is it better performance wise using steam VR or through steam?
Or you use Virtual Desktop and use it without link cable and wireless. Best solution.
Great video, thank you. Question for you, when I am in the plane everything seems enlarged. The copilot is almost on my lap. Is there a way to zoom out little to make it more a correct size.
I think you should move the mouse to correct the camera angle
Click the number pad on keyboard
Well, I tried FS2020 steam edition, connected with airlink, but the sim says "no headset detected" when I turned on VR mode. Oculus software says headset is paired with PC. What's going on?
How do i fix the inside of my quest 2 stayong on the 3 dot loding screen? it does say on my screen that i am in vr
I wonder why using VR is such a hassle in many games? It should be -- launch game in VR mode, put on headset = done
100%!!! And until they get that part cleaned up, VR won't take off. There should at the very least be suggested presets when you select your VR headset from a drop down. Right now there were too many variables in too many different places for the average consumer to figure this out without investing some serious time.
Every time I put on the VR headset it put me outside of the cockpit.
I eventually discovered I have to go into settings, while in VR mode, and change the camera off of cockpit then back into cockpit.
Now I can't even get past the 1st tutorial because it's asking me to select something from the control bar, but i don't see a control bar.
I rate this video 9/11.
Will it work with the Air Link? It was in Beta during this video but now it's a fully functioning feature.
I have a 2060 super am I screwed ? I get horrible jitters but I also have it set to 90hz
rtx4090 runs VR amazingly good. Looks like need wait for Quest3 or Apple Headset for much improved graphics
I have Windows 11 now I heard there’s some compatibility issues but if I use the wire versus airlink should I connect successfully?
Just to be clear, you're not seeing the same quality in VR as we see in this video, are you? Because what I see (Quest 2/Steam VR/Quest Link - official cable) looks like it's 800x600 res with that 3d glasses look, in my headset. I peek out of them and the image on my monitor looks waaaaaaay better (1440p - Ryzen 7/RTX 3070ti/32GB RAM).
Is it possible to use the actual plane controls? Like buttons and the yoke and everything?
I’m not able to interact with menus when in VR, such as ATC and stuff, any idea how to fix that?
Suspecting GamePass version won't answer for VR, so I broke down, and got Steam version of FS, and Steam VR, so, hopefully, I'll be able to get this working. Sadly, all I can afford is what I have, which is a GTX-970, on FX8350 (8 core). I've been having fail, after fail, with the cable, but once, was able to run a game in Steam VR, so, fingers crossed.
GamePass version of the game works in VR, I just tested it.
@@renzonovara2728 Glad they got that working, now. Good to know. Thanks.
What video card do you suggest to play vr on maximum graphic?
Est ce que on peut utiliser les contrôleurs dans msfs à la place de la souris ?
what about the Oculus Quest 1? does it not work with flight simulator VR?
Where is the video control panel Located some of us are not that smart when doing this so please include that also
how smooth will everything be on the RTX 2060 Super?
I’m having trouble when I click on switch to vr it pops up on the computer monitor fr but not oculus I’m still in the main menu
I'm having a lot of issues of instability while running quest 2 through rift on pc anyone have a fix for this? I got a 3080RTX shouldn't be having issues.
Hello, hopefully someone can help give me answer! I have a oculus quest 2, I’m running a more than capable gaming pc, I’ve properly installed msfs 2020 and I have the oculus app, downloaded and openxr as well. I followed the instructions online to make sure it’s directed the right path, I also followed your instructions on connecting the headset and linking it, I don’t have a problem doing that, I leave both running and headset ready to go, I open msfs and it’s like the sim isn’t recognizing the headset, when I look under controllers I see my joystick, I see my mouse and my keyboard, I also have a touch pointer, but no headset, and when I try to assign vr activate/deactivate, it says I’m trying to assign action to a device that is not selected. Am I missing something on the sim or openxr or oculus app? Please help!
Hi can you advise, I think I'm missing something, when I press the the 2 keys nothing happens no vr mode, it says I need camera mode and bind keys, I do not understand, I have a gaming laptop with rtx 3060, regards
this just shows me a 3D monitor. How do i get it to go into 3d mode? ive tried everything
nvidia control panel closes when i select program settings?
Good video, however I couldn't get mine to work :/
Can you do this same thing if you bought MSFS through the MS Store?
Ive got a kinda off the wall request. I just wanna know whats that tune you are listening too??
Boss i need help. I have my headset connected my vr headset to oculus but i am trying to activate the vr envoirment but by alt tab nothing hapening. Can u help me
How do I get to the first screen? Control panel?
This is a mine field. Bought a laptop and quest 2. I'm down £1500. Can't get it to work. Got into the cockpit in vr. No hands.
I've got steamvr and oculus working.
Absolute pain in the arse.... all the oculus games work flawlessly. I'm about to drop £4000 on a gaming rig and hotas controllers just for this game to run properly. It's killed my soul doing all this! Thanks for the great video tho. Helped alot. But some other issues are hitting me
Did I take too long of a nap, it seems like just yesterday I bought what I thought was the top-of-the-line GPU (RTX 2080 ti) now if I want a top-of-the-line card it's going to run me approx $3k.
In the Oculus app it says that I am connected but when I get in to the flight sim and click on VR mode it says that I am not. What's my problem?
which runtime are you using?
Can you use vr in a external, spot, view?
i must buy virtual desktop for play mfs2020 on oculus 2?
Which Microsoft flight simulator are you using
io sono rimasto molto deluso da Oculus Quest 2 in quanto sul mio MFS2020 si vede sfocato e granuloso qual'è la chiave giusta per renderlo più chiaro e magiori dettagli ? Grazie per la risposta
I have the Quest 3 and msfs keeps sayin there is no headset connected
I have Msfs 2020 on Xbox Games pass do i still need to launch with SteamVR and If so how do I launch Msfs through Steam Vr i can see my recently played games but Msfs is no where insight bit of a noob when it comes to pcs as i recently changed from consoles also while trying to use Msfs in VR when it finally detects my Quest2 its as if I’m moving my head but I’m completely still. Ive still not completed a flight in Vr yet after 2 days of trying :(
pc specs are
i7-9700k
RTX 2070
32gb of ram
Forgot to mention this is with the £90 official oculus link cable
Same here. I just got the MFS from the gamepass ultimate and downloaded it to PC and seeing most ppl using steam vr wondering if I am supposed to be also. Still works but jittery. Need to tweak the settings from this video hopefully it works.
I have followed the video but all i get is a black screen what other drivers do i need
11:18 Yo chill with the music 😂
This shit is so confusing 😕 Every word coming out of his mouth I have no idea of what hes talking about im still trying to get to the video panel control.
Didn’t work for me, says no headset detected
I had difficulties to understand where you click. You moved so fast. But thank you.
Is it a problem if I do not have a USB 3?
I purchased Microsoft flight simulator through steam hoping to use it with my Oculus quest 2. No matter what setting I put it at I can't get above two or four frames per second. Terrible lag. I have Rizen 5 with a 1060 Nvidia 24gb ram .. I'm going to return Microsoft flight simulator and try to purchase standalone version so I can ditch the steam VR cuz I think that's the problem.
I tried doing all of this, but all that happened, was my PCs audio got shut down, and I could not get it back, until I uninstalled Oculus app. I was also never able to get the headset to connect to the PC when the sim was running. On cable, the Oculus app showed connection, but it never really did anything, and the sim kept telling me there was no VR headset connected. Oh well. LOL don't know how you guys make this stuff look so easy, but, ok, whatever.
Followed the steps..stuck inside the cockpit..mouse not functioning.. a mini screen is showing reading "load/save flight files" does not go away...disappointing..
Sooo... I need a gaming computer to run it? Goggles only used for the visuals? :(
How did u get to the graphics performance????
Hi! I just downloaded FS:X today from Steam, and it looks like Windows 95... Why you menus look updated?!
Can you controller from the quest 2
what do I do if steam VR airport open up for me
Cool
Wonder if you can help, watched your vid, thanks for that. I bought MSFS2020 from Microsoft so it is on my computer ssd drive. Plays perfect in 2D... bought oculus rift s yesterday and have been on it now 24 hours!!! I followed your vid but my ctrl key + tab will not but me in VR , I have to go into options and select VR mode from the settings and that puts me in VR ok but I have the box saying "Please look straight in front of you VR-camera reset key to set the pilot view" you cleared this with space bar I think, but all my keyboard is dead at this time...nothing, even have to shut PC down to get out of it...any ideas, any help is must appreciated. Thanks Tony
Easy fix! You can assign a mouse button or a button on your HOTAS to toggle VR. In the sim go to Options then Controls. On the left side make sure you click the arrow next to “assigned” until it shows “all” then search VR. It will show as unassigned. Click on the empty box to the right of the action and then assign it to whatever button you choose. Good to go!
Thanks for your help mate, really appreciated, all is working now. Kind regards, Tony
Why can't I play with GeForce GTX1060 24GB Ram. It says my device doesn't meet the minimum requirements
Is this possible using Microsoft Game Pass?
is there a way to cennect to steam vr without this cable? this is the whole reason i bought the oculus 2 cause i thought u just could connect em to steam vr and there u go. But it looks like i need this cable now
No cable necessary! You can use Virtual Desktop and a decent router. Head to my channel page and you will find a wireless setup tutorial. Then subscribe of course. 😉
All the time in msfs wrote no headset is detected
Omg! Move your Steam VR settings!
No headset detected even though it’s plugged in and in the oculus menu
another tip is to close out of every window that isnt doing stuff for the game, especially chrome or other games you might have open. trust me, the difference can be noticable
wireless vid out yet?
Keep getting an error no headset detected. Very frustrating.
Retry today re make this video using correct setting of mirror of headset in obs
I'm not sure what I am doing wrong but I can't get that sweet smooth feel when turning my head. Mine is jittery, and i see the black edges, when turning my head. I have Ryzen 5 3200, 32gb ddr4, rtx 3070. As i'm typing this i am realizing it was installed on a HDD, any chance that is playing a role?!
I would say that the hdd isn’t helping. Get an ssd or nvme to speed things up. I would also lower that render scale down quite a bit based on your CPU. It’s most likely bottlenecking your GPU.
