I have been getting constant Oculus Rift CV1 disconnects, cannot find sensor, cannot find headset, sometimes I cannot play for 10 minutes, then sometimes I could play for days without any disconnects.
I upgraded USB drivers, then downgraded them again, switched off all power saving features for my Inteck 4 port card, nothing seemed to work, blamed Microsoft updates, blamed heat, I would have blamed the cat or dog if I had one.
Until now - I can absolutely confirm that I can make my system lose my headset or sensor and then make it so it works ALL THE TIME.
Turn down the graphic quality, wait - what? - turn down the graphic settings.
If I turn them to VR Ultra or adjust them to very high etc. I can guarantee I will have disconnects, the higher the settings the sooner the disconnects, if I turn them down to VR low - no disconnects, for hours and hours of gameplay. Please try it.
I know it doesn't seem to make sense, which is why I didn't think this was the cause in the first place, but I realised that I could play Mountain Goat Mountain or Lucky's Tail for hours without any problems, but Elite, I was always concerned that I would have a disconnect at any time, in the middle of combat or landing or whatever.
I am now working my way up through the graphic settings until I find a happy medium, good graphic quality and no disconnects.
For information my system is using an NVidia 1070, 24Gb RAM, Windows 10, AMD FX-9370 liquid cooled processor.
