I am experiencing this exact problem on my Meta Quest Pro as well.

I am experiencing the same issue on my Meta Quest Pro as well.  It has persisted now for almost one month.  I attempted a factory reset and reinstalled the app to no avail.

Hello @69Enigma! We would love to help you out with this issue. We understand being able to play all your favorite games is important. We appreciate you letting us know that you have already attempted a factory reset and that it did not help you solve the problem. We want to work together in order to get you back to playing Population One as soon as possible. Could you please follow the steps below to help with this issue?

 

  • Check to see if you have any updates available. If you see them, update. If none show, then you'll need to do this:
  • 2) UNcheck "update software automatically" then REcheck "update software automatically."
  • 3) Even though an update won't appear, you'll see it updating. Once it's finished, reboot and you should be able to play.
  • 4) If you still have an issue, uninstall and reinstall after you've done the Quest OS update.

If these steps do not help, please reach out to us here so we can take a deeper dive into this for you. https://metaque.st/CommunitySupport. Next, click "Send a Message" to privately message us! Please remember, you must be signed into the community first to send us a private message.

I did all the same and it still isn't working.  I submitted help request to population 1 developers. 

I am still stuck.

I have this same issue.  I have attempted all the updating and reloading mentioned here, and to no avail.  I have no issues on my Oculus 3, but my Oculus Pro simply won't load it.  ALL OTHER APPS work properly. 

Please help - this my favorite game!
