Steam Hardware Survey - July 2025 results included (see latest post in this thread)
Latest results: These results are compared, at least for the Rift, to August when Rift peaked at 0.35 %. Since August 2018 Rift has decreased about 6 % (from 0.35 to 0.33). Vive also decreased. Compared to other HMDs we see from April to September (note that this image hasn't been updated to October yet): When updated to October I'd expect: Rift = 45 % Vive = 42 % WMR = 8 % Vive Pro = 3 % Rift DK2 = 1 % Source: https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam BTW - some history: April 2018: Oculus Rift 0.20% HTC Vive 0.18% Windows Mixed Reality 0.01% Oculus Rift DK2 0.01% Oculus Rift DK1 0.00% Unknown 0.00% July 2018: Oculus Rift 0.32% HTC Vive 0.31% Windows Mixed Reality 0.05% HTC Vive Pro 0.01% Oculus Rift DK2 0.01% Oculus Rift DK1 0.00% I guess it's more or less a stand still since July for Rift and the original Vive... I don't think the Odyssey+ has had any impact on the WMR results above, the Odyssey+ is much too new - if it'll have any impact, it won't be before the Steam Hardware Survey November 2018 results.Known Issue: Closing Steam VR crashes Dash
Hi everyone! We're seeing a small group of Steam VR users finding that Dash is crashing on headset and that their PC is becoming unresponsive once they quit the app. The team is working on identifying and fixing the root cause of this issue, and right now the investigation shows that this is likely related to Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling being enabled when using certain Nvidia GPUs. If you're having this issue, there is a workaround In the meantime! You can prevent this happening by disabling the Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling feature. To do so, follow these instructions. If you need any further help or have noticed other bugs around Steam VR, please comment below. Let me know if you have any questions!
Retrieve a list of Games in user's Oculus Library?
hi, I've been working on a Discord Bot to help users find other users in the same discord server that own a specified game (an LFG bot) So far I've only implemented this with steam, and by popular demand, I'm now investigating if i can add the meta game library to the bot. On steam, The user logs into their steam account and the bot remembers their user ID and retrieves a list of all the games they have in their library Is it possible to do this with Meta and the Oculus library?
Steam Link not working with Quest 3
Update 2024: It has been fixed for me and steam link now works even with older AMD drivers. It work very well even, I prefer to use it over airlink or Virtual Desktop. Steam link is not working for me. I have steam open, when I click "connect" on my headset steam link app I get "host not responding" error 200. When I start SteamVR on my PC manually first, then click "connect" on my steam link app in the headset I get a window saying "Stream initializing", "Connecting to host PC is taking longer than usual..." The app tells me the headset is paired, airlink is working fine. Does anyone else have issues?Oculus Link TroubleShooting
For this of you who have the Beta Link option available, I would like to discuss some troubleshooting parameters that might have your games crashing. If you have game bar from windows enabled, I would recommend disabling it while using the Link Function. It causes the Steam VR to fail quite a bit as when it tries to optimize it causes a sever malfunction. The same goes with Razer Cortex gaming optimization. For any of you owning Razer products It might have been installed with your Razer Synapse. This can also cause the program to malfunction while operating. And finally another item that may cause it to crash is Nvidia idea of recording gameplay. I would recommend turning off GeForce Expereince as the pop up can drop frames and latency connection with the Oculus Link and can result in crashing or connection failure.
