An update released today, 1.16.220, that fixes being able to load the game on Index/steam VR. it now loads to the title screen, but controllers do not seem to work at all. so it's still many levels of messed up atm. at least it loads though!
Everyone keeps saying the fix is to switch off of steam VR as the OpenXR source, but that makes 0 sense because...
1: this won't help anyone not using oculus, such as an index, vive or any other non WMR or oculus HMD.
2: There is no reason why Oculus should not work on SteamVR for OpenXR
All of these registry "fixes" are just fixing a symptom and not the actual cause. something with the current version of minecraft has a lot of issues with OpenXR in general, and that needs to be fixed. the reason why this whole thread is a huge mess of many different looking issues is because all of these issues probably have 1 root cause, which is minecraft bedrock having really bad compatibility with OpenXR, which Mojang needs to fix.
OK.. So Mojang keeps merging in the new topics about OpenXR having issues with a 100% unrelated 5 year old topic from 2016. Do they really think these are the same issues at all?
Yes. I have been checking this daily.
I only have one copy of bedrock installed from the windows store.
I open steam VR, which is what Index uses for OpenXR,
I paste and run minecraft://mode/?OpenXR=true
the game opens fine, fully loads to the title screen (before the title screen UI appears).
in my index I see a single frame of the nether title screen and hear the music a short moment, then the game closes with no error, a straight close to desktop
Same issue as Jfar_GI with Index on SteamVR while steamVR is my OpenXR platform. It launched fine, I see 1 frame of the nether login screen inside the index fine, hear the music shortly and it will instantly crash to desktop with no error
It seems like there are two different issues here.
1: people crashing before the game loads and they get an error
2: people crashing after the game loads (they can see the nether login screen scene shortly), crash to desktop with no error
Same issue when using SteamVR with OpenXR. It opens, then once I see the nether Login screen in VR and it crashes
same issue here 😞 pls help me.
