265 days have passed between the original bug report and today.
There has been no change towards the state of this bug report nor the bug itself since then.
Neither you nor any other employee in your division or in general has come into this thread to give us an update regarding the progress of this fix.
We are still forced to use workarounds in order to access multiple experiences on your platform without hesitation or issues.
What is the genuine issue with this company and being unable to produce worthwhile results in a timely manner? Why is it that we, as consumers of your product, have to beg in dead threads to get some semblance of communication that you people will otherwise never give to us?
Is the VR team underpaid? Underutilized? Forced into submission? What is going on.
2024, I’ve had this issue for about 2 years now it’s almost second nature to just rename the SteamVR file every time I launch either Roblox or Roblox Studio. It’s genuinely annoying when I launch Studio and have to exit the process every single time I forget to rename the file. Please, I beg of you Roblox, please fix this. I am so sick of having to do a routine examination of my program files every single time I want to launch the application. It is genuinely insane that this has been going on for as long as it has for what I assume would probably be a very simple fix. No other application on my computer does this, only ones marked specifically VR (which ask me if I would like to launch the game in VR, which Roblox does not.)
Thanks for all of your patience here. We’ve identified the issue and are getting ready to ship a fix that will ensure that if you have the VR turned off in Settings, Roblox will no longer try to launch in PCVR mode. We’re running through our final QA passes now.
We’ve just enabled the change that correctly applies your VR settings. If you have VR turned off, you will no longer see Roblox initialize in PCVR mode. Please let me know if you’re still seeing issues.
We’re aware of an issue showing a compatibility warning dialogue on some Quest headsets and are working to resolve it. In the meantime, dismissing the popup will allow you to use Roblox normally.
I appear to be still getting this issue. I’ve tried reinstalling ROBLOX to ensure I am on the latest build, and toggling the VR setting. It does seem that the game does respect my VR settings but not going into VR mode but still launches SteamVR.
Bumping this again, is there a fix coming anytime soon? It was promised a few times already and it still hasn’t come, it’s a persistent issue for most or almost everyone I do know who owns an index, including myself.
Steamvr always continues to launch alongside roblox, it’s been over half a year now that i’m dealing with this, i’m not damaging my cables to unplug nor editing my steamvr configs to play roblox.
