    I'm sure it's listed here somewhere but I can not find what the process is to get the VR to work properly. Everytime I open RRE in VR, the game opens but I get this small window in the top left corner of my monitor. Nothing in the VR headset. I've deleted the graphic options file, verified the game files in Steam, added -vr to the destop icon start... uninstalled, reinstalled... nothing. Still small box everytime. Please! Someone help! Thank you!

    That happens to me if the resolution in steam-vr is too high, try a lower resolution. 50%

    WHY do we have to downscale the resolution? Why does it not support 100% render resolution? This game looks terrible at low resolution compared to all other sims.

    I go exactly the same problem as in that image.

    Why do the developers not reply on why this limitation is there? We need a solution, please.

    He's (probably, I'm 99% sure, since he doesn't specify it) running on downscaled SteamVR resolution. If you set the SteamVR resolution at 40% and you add that in the command line, then yes then it starts; but it's downscaled resolution. Doesn't fix anything, the issue stays the same.

    I want to run play this game, as all other racing sims; on the native resolution of my headset, that simply doesn't work. With OpenXR it gives always a black screen and so it does with SteamVR when running at 100% SteamVR/OpenComposite resolution.

    Only when I run downscaled resolution it starts BUT with the small screen on the top left. It's unusable/unplayable this way.
