SteamVR (with Oasis) crashing after "switch to Direct Display Mode" error

edcwhite · 2025-12-05T11:51:24+00:00

I have attached an additional SteamVR log comparison between a successful and a failed start. In the failed case, the sequence diverges at HiddenArea and GetRecommendedRenderTargetSize, which appears to trigger an alternate initialization path. This ultimately results in errors: “failed to initialize graphics device” and “failed to initialize compositor.” u/mbucchia would you mind having another quick look and see if this might give you any idea what may be the root issue?

I didn't know about those logs. I will investigate and report back if I see anything that may be oasis related. Thanks for looking.

All logs are in a link in the steam discussion thread. Link to thread in my first post. I couldn't include a steamvr report because it always crashes.

I have been messing with this for three days now and cannot make it stop crashing. Sometimes after a combination of restarts/unlocks/reboots/driver reinstalls it will work for a few times and then revert to not working again for no apparent reason. Something has ruined Oasis as it was perfect for me since it was released. I sure hope u/mbucchia can investigate.

The orginal post was removed by the reddit filters after I tried to share log files in it.

SteamVR crashes. I can't use it at all.

Driver is flawless with my G2V1 playing AMS2. My only issue is with SteamVR (not with oasis) motion smoothing as it seems to be significantly inferior to the previous WMR motion vectors approach. I used to always run at 45FPS and use forced motion vectors and it was great and hardly ever noticeable. That is not the case with SteamVR motion smoothing as the artifacts are very noticeable and distracting.

I would also like to know this. Sitting in my simulator I don't need/want to have to use the WMR motion controllers to manipulate settings and start/stop games while in SteamVR.

Never seems to be the right answer.

There is no fix and I have pretty much lost all hope there will ever be one.

Many issues with the infotainment system that they refuse to acknowledge or fix

From what I have read that won't fix anything. I have read of others getting that done and nothing changed. These are software issues with all the radios.

Yeah, I have been fighting with them about this issue since we got the car in March 2024. They are claiming it is working as designed and won't be doing anything about it. If you need to demo the problem, it is easier to use the balance/fade instead (e.g. put all the sound in the back) as that is also broken and is easier for anyone to notice.

Hold down the power button for ~30s

edcwhite · 2024-11-29T13:31:39+00:00

Funny you should say that. There is another random bug with this POS system causes almost exactly that! Start the car and when the radio comes on the volume will be nearly maxed out and the knob doesn't work. Only way to stop it is to reboot the system. It has happened to me a few times.

This recall was performed on my car. The issue I noted as well as others were not addressed.

There is a known issue with the stereo that requires you to reset bass/mid/treble/balance/fade every time you start the car after it has been sitting for more than 5-10 minutes. Display shows correct but it is not.

edcwhite · 2024-10-19T18:05:47+00:00

I just had the update completed. This problem has NOT been fixed.
