[Help] Black Screen on Game Start
Posted: Thu Dec 30, 2021 1:32 pm
Thanks for creating such an awesome work!
I am having a problem with starting the game via Steam VR. When I start it, the game displays only a full black screen. I can hear the sounds of the normal rebel cruiser lobby, and if I press esc, I hear the menu sound (and must guess what is selected in order to exit the game with the screen blackened). However, everything is black.
I have recently installed:
XWAU 2020 Main Upgrade
XWAU Patch 5.0
Effects by Blue Max 12-29-2021 (installed by copying the contents of the unzipped folder into the X Wing Alliance folder and replacing the files that were already there - 7 replacements I think it was).
I used the Babu Frick Configurator to enable Steam VR.
I tried launching the game from Steam VR, and I get the black screen. If I launch the game from the desktop, the screen is also totally black.
The game worked perfectly for me previously without the VR enablement, as a game displayed on my computer screen.
I am streaming the game from a Shadow PC, with Virtual Desktop and Steam VR driving the Shadow's connection to my Oculus Quest 2. This has worked well for Squadrons and House of the Dying Sun, so I know it's possible to do VR through Steam VR with this set up.
Please help! I would love to be able to play this in VR!
