Has anyone updated to 1.20 and are still using their DK2? I updated and the screen went half green and half orange. Image is still there but obviously not usable like this. Had to do a system restore to get the previous 1.19 runtime to work. It does work again, but when I start the Oculus App, it says there is an error starting with the letter Q. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated, mate. Cheers, AussieStig


same problem here... ant its a pain in the arse.. reinstalling 119, takes 2 gb to download. what a shitpile of software... we will see if its a waste of time. maybe blocking that shitty service in your firewall.

this is so stupid... disableing  the automatic updates doesnt work. it will automatically install 1.20 anyway :neutral:
investigation goes on, not that i had better stuff to do :neutral:

i was trying to show virtual reality to some friends...
now their impression is it doesnt work with oculus.

nice work guys, this is the way to intruduce new people to vr 😉 NOT!

i told them not buy buy oculus if they are interested, because their software is a pile of bullshit.
it was always a huge problem if you like to use older runtimes for years now...
they just dont care or cant code

EDIT:
Trying to reinstall it without internet connection doesnt work...
nice one!
so we are simply not able to fix your shit by ourselves. bravo.
next headset wont be oculus!
and i will spread the word so others are warned..

Hi, @CoolFire321, do you happen to run on an older Nvidia card? If so, you may want to install this specific driver for best compatibility: 385.41


Hi!

I am having this problem, but with ATI !

For me, some of the color are displayed rotated 90° on the right (as when the headset is recognized as a monitor)

But most are indeed showing in 3d

same here.. some colours are rotated.
your headset, drivers and gpu are fine.
its just the new software 1.20
1.19 worked perfect with dk2.
its a shame we have no option to get back to 1.19.
you just cant, it requires a internet connection and is always downloading the newest version.
it doesnt matter what installer you use...

i hope they will do something about that.
i wont buy another headset just because the software was updatet...
it just worked perfect a few days ago..

So how to stop this 1.20 upgrade or revert  to older driver if problems appear from it, we should have more flexible control on the update procedure, or it will be difficult for some users .....

It's hard to find the best way to support your user base :neutral:

Anyways, I've applied to the `Development Engineer, Oculus Platform' ad on the facebook site.

If I can help in some ways (w/o having to move to Seattle though :blush: )

It seems since the update that I get from time to time a black screen. Then I need to go to Settings -> Beta -> Restart oculus to fix it.

We need an offline download link for this update 1.20 with an option to revert to older driver in case of any problems that would appear, I think this is the a good solution..
Ybalrid
Expert Protege
Since 1.20 sometimes my rift is no longer detected, even after unplugin/plugin it back and/or restarting the oculus services.

Rebooting Windows seems to fix that every-time. It's no big deal, and probably due to the fact that I let the computer running for days at a time with the headset plugged and the software running.

With this update version 1.20, the DK2 doesn't work anymore with AMD card. Please, can you fix this problem or give us the possibility to download the previous version of Oculus Platform version 1.19?

i m running the newest driver 385.69
i had test this multiple times now. there is nothing wrong my driver, or computer, or cable connection.
because i can uninstall my oculus app, and reinstall it. it will work perfectly fine for about a minute, then i m forced to update oculus app. once the app restart. i lost the display on my head set.
the light on head set still blue, sound is on, sensors are good, controllers are good, games are good because i can still see the display on my desktop screen. just the headset screen wont turn on at all.

What 'blue light'? ... Mine is either orange or white.

No - they told me this in a support ticket reply.  I'm really starting to think they're not going to sort it

at the risk of pissing you off - have you logged a support ticket? while you may not be the only one having this issue, it's not affecting everyone and peoples hardware/circumstances vary. if you have logged a support ticket, email them - they're nice people and they always get back to me within a couple of hours..

I had issues with Elite:Dangerous since the October NVIDIA Update. At first thought it was the added Nvidia Sound Driver to my monitor I do not use so uninstalled that to no avail. Tried restarting device and knew it wasn't this 1.20 Oculus Update as it's been ok until the Windows Auto update this week. So I ROLLED BACK DRIVER and it hung for a while until restoring the July Driver. E:D now runs smooth as butter as before - no more glitch jumping as I look around. NVIDIA need to sort out their shit!

Did anyone here (Especially @OculusFTL) even once consider restarting the service in services.msc? Every time the orange light and black screen thing happened for me, even after updates, that always worked for me. I only had to do it 2 or 3 times in total (far apart in time, too) and it now hasn't happened in half a year. Also, @CoolFire321, Facebook did not MAKE Oculus, they BOUGHT Oculus. Most hardware related things (most) they left to the original oculus team. Facebook was mostly in it for optimizing it for social stuff.

Better post where some Oculus staff are maybe reading...

Oculus Home back button is broken... The previous position is often reset to the top position, so you have to scroll down again to where you were. Can't you make it go back to the scroll position where you left of always?
This has annoyed me for many months.
