Odyssey VR specific bug reports - please contribute!

[Cmdr Bracher]

When acknowledging a fault, make sure you read it properly. There's one on Holo-me that's about on ship missing head. It's now mixed up with an on base Holo-me zoom problem.
I've added my acknowledgement and explained the two faults now mentioned. Here's a copy:
I can confirm. Though people haven't read properly here. There's 2 problems now mentioned here. Original post is the Holo-me in 'ship' . Here when working on the head, it seems to be missing. It's actually a long way off behind you, if you turn around in VR you can see the back of your head bust in the distance. This is the same problem as when you look at your ships in the change ship screen.
And the other mentioned is the Holo-me on the stand up screens in bases, where the head shows but the whole screen is zoomed in. So you can't press any buttons.

Thanks for adding to the issue report - it can now be voted upon.

To be fair to those who misread the issue, it’s not the easiest title and description to decipher if you’re just flicking through the reports:

“In other than "body" and "accessory" tab, character is not displayed, being unable to modify it”

I can see how players might’ve got the wrong end of the stick there Hopefully they’ll now go and add a confirmation to https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/32982 - the missing Holo-me buttons.

 

[Cmdr Bracher]

Yeah the post was oddly written. The buttons one you show is mine... Odd it's only got 4 others. As it happens all the time in VR. Maybe people just haven't looked at Holo-me

Fingers crossed for Thursdays patch!

While already documented and reported I can confirm that as at the time of this post the surface scanner is still borked. Can use it, but definitely not working properly.

Also ran across the "invisible rock" while scooting around in the SRV but don't think this is specific to VR.

There are certainly invisible rocks in flatscreen Odyssey, but we’ve also got the added bonus of invisible-in-one-eye rocks The rock can be seen in one eye and just the rock “under-shadow” in the other, or sometimes even different sized rocks for each eye. Great for inducing headaches

There doesn’t seem to be any mention of VR in the Update 3 patch notes, so if anyone sees any undocumented fixes please let me know.

At least the Arc Cutter tool has its corner problem fixed for us controller users

 

[Arioch]

Spotted some good news!

DSS is fixed in VR, it's useable again. Thank you so much!

If anyone else can confirm, I’ll change the OP - I can’t check for myself until tomorrow.

Unfortunately not fixed for me =/

Just posting to let you all know that DSS and free camera in VR are indeed still broken in the new patch. No change.

Can't test atm but did it at least increase the performance a bit?

I'm sorry, I played only briefly to check the problems. Didn't notice significant improvements, but I'll be sure take a deeper look in the afternoon.

Ah, pity. Thanks for checking!

I can only speak for me, in flat screen yes performance on foot in stations i'm now reaching my frame cap of 90, in VR it "feels" a little better but nothing that is really quantifiable

 

[PR-303]

Same here. DSS and free cam still broken. Also the shadows and lightning looks crap in VR.

Thank Raxxla that we got to keep Horizons.

Thanks, I'll try this later when I come home. Even having a bit more stable frames would be great. I could not stand VR in Odyssey at all up until now.

as always with shadows.. no shadows or ultra shadows is the only way

I have the same settings in Horizons as in Odyssey.

The effect when the shadows sweeps through the cockpit is beautiful in Horizons, crap in Odyssey.

Maybe its lightning and not shadows I mean. Im no gfx lingo expert

Switching modes causes atmosphere to disappear/reappear after scanning:

Has anyone had atmospheres disappear after scanning them?

It has happened to me now twice, both of where were on planets no one has discovered previously. The atmosphere was there pre-scan and then it disappears post-scan. I tried it again, but this time a Commander had passed through the system, but I scanned anyhow. That time the atmosphere...
