    Bind buttons to head movement in options and turn this off in game.
    Then instead changed the values in the car you like to drive in: GameData/Cars/"the car you like"/Cameras/cockpit_driver_view
    And find this:
    <orientationSpeed type="Vector">{0.00000000 0.00000000 0.00000000}</orientationSpeed>)
    I have them set to 10.00000000 60.00000000 1.00000000

    Personal opinion on this, but RR doesnt seem to run very well with the newest gpus in general. Pascal just doesnt play nicely with RR and all of its DX9 goodness.

    Jumping from a single gtx 660 (since RR doesnt support SLI) to 1070 just wasnt nearly as big of a performance increase as it should have been.

    I'm getting a black screen with the Oculus Rift CV1 too when i start the game with in vr mode. Tried several things like lowering graphical details in desktop mode, tried different settings in steam vr, tried it in fullscreen or window mode. Also restarted my system, nothing helped.

    My system:
    Windows 10
    i5 2500k
    8 GB Ram
    GTX 1070

    All drivers are up to date, all my other vr games (Assetto Corsa, Project CARS, Dirt Rally, The Lab, Doom 3 with VR mod) work perfectly fine.

    OKAY, the problem is running the game through SImVibe results in a blurry mess. Run it from Steam and all is crisp and lovely

    okay next question, how to get this game running through SImvibe looking crisp?

    EDIT: The fix is in SC4 to place the following in Settings/Games/R3E/Advanced/Parameters: -applaunch 211500 -vr 1.5 -silent

    Obviously using -vr xx at your proffered level & then game will launch directly form SC4. Note that in Steam properties you should leave the launch option for R3E blank.

    Also got Problems here.

    - Running Oculus Rift
    - Oculus Client software running
    - Steam VR started
    - Added command line option "-vr 2.0" (of course without the qoutes).
    - Started the game.
    - Steam "Theater" shows the splash screen.
    - When the normal loading screens appear, headset shows the generic steam VR "room".
    - Normal PC Screen shows the Screens in the upper third of my screen
    - Upon entering the menu, the menu stays at the upper third of my screen. Oculus still shows nothing.
    - Mouse control is crazy offset, but menu is usable as buttons get highlighted.
    - Entered Race.
    - Upon entering car, the screen is now used fully, but quite distorted.
    - Still nothing on Oculus.

    I had this problem after i deleted the Raceroom save data in My Docs/Games/Simbin

    To fix it:
    Start the game in normal mode, as I had deleted my settings, i reset my game options, controller etc.
    Then exit
    Then enter -vr & boot in VR mode

    I had a black screen as well. And like the other guy said a system reboot worked. Good luck mate.
    Thanks again Sector 3, now i can deinstall AC again :) All my lovely old power cars (Group 5, GTO's etc.) in lovely VR,i'm so sold again :D. Too bad i go for a trip exactly THIS weekend. It's an unfair world :persevere:

    alright Guys i managed to get the game working in VR and this what i found my specs are I5 4670K 4.4 16 Gigs Ram 980TI this is what i did to get acceptable performance (still needs more optimization)

    - VR 2.5
    - everything on Medium
    - DO NOT use Asynchronous Reprojection if your using Oculus Rift that will fuck up the game it becomes very choppy
    - If your using the Oculus Tool and rescale from there the game becomes very blurry but runs better so use the Steam way to make it look better
    If anyone can suggest or add to the above would be helpful to all devs & players Thanks! :)

    I tried "-vr", "-vr 1.6" and "-vr 2.0" No difference. The game seems to start in some way in the background (i hear the mechanical "click" from my wheel that switches to 180 degree mode in the menus, but i don't see or hear anything ingame).

    It's in Secondary Functions..scroll over halfway down and pass all the Camera options and you will see Reset VR Position

    What about multiview support? There are more users with triple screen than users with VR glasses.

    Good to be back ;)
    Just tested VR. Graphics on medium and -VR 1.5 with AR. Looks really good but couldn't hit stable 90fps...
    Did some laps on Brands hatch and everything was fine, then tried Nordschleife and it was very choppy.
    Will try without "Async.Repro" like Hell-Fiend recommended.

    Real Problem: The menus are running with 60fps for me and that's giving me eye strain and sickness
    within minutes. Loading screen was even down to ~20ish.
    When i'm on track and enter the pause/setup menu it's 90fps like the game.

    Issue/Bug: When exiting the game is remains "Running" through Steam until I shutdown SteamVR
    Issue/Bug: SteamVR FPS Display doesn't work in game

    Awesome thanks, I was scrolling straight past it!

    Ok, i solved it :)

    Problem was: I thought the whole screen was black (which it was), but i was simply behind the menu. I used the desktop mode to assign the "reset vr" key, started in vr-mode again, pressed the "reset vr"-key and now it seems to be fine :)

    Worked! Thanks!
    Anyhow, even with setting 1.0 the performance is not ready for me now.
    But looking forward to future improvements :)

    Have you tried setting 1.0 and then running Low video settings in game and starting with that?
