-side note of the weird FOV thing i also recorded, ive only had that happen in VR hands specifically where everything dissapears but there is some weirdness as a whole with FOV on roblox vr.

Expected behavior

I should be able to go into any game on Roblox and be able to open the SteamVR Dashboard without Roblox crashing.

I’ve got the exact same issue with another worse one on top, when I try to join any VR game where your character gets sized up the entire map just despawns and isn’t rendered anymore but as soon as I make my character smaller everything gets rendered again.

I’ve fixed my problem with the rendering, the only thing that worked was to reduce rendering on steam VR to around 80% no idea how that messes with rendering the entire game but that fixed this particulate matter. Opening the Steam Overlay in VR still closes Roblox

I also experience this but its more random, as sometimes it will crash and sometimes its completely fine.
