No Music.. No Talking.. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 - There is a Santa Claus!! VR on a Quest 2 and 1070 GPU.. VR is ACTIVE!!! And man what a frustrating time just getting it to start lol... For some reason my VR settings had no default setup for Keyboard etc.. All blank.. MSFS was against me from the start lol..:) But through some frustration and perseverance.. I got it to run.. and on an ole 1070 to boot!! Shine that rosy red nose Rudolph!! the rest.. will just get better and be fun times here on out... oh, ignore the part when I forget to turn off the frickin Mic and you hear more than you should.. I'm old..it gets that way..

"So how do I run it?"
if on steam.. just run your Quest 2 and use the link cable.. obviously shut everything else off except steam of course... go to monitor through the link and press play in your game library for MSFS2020... once it loads in the game.. you go to controls and make sure you add VR commands if they are not there under Keyboard (or check/do this before you plan on using VR) .. then go to general and pick VR... it will start in headset with RECENTER and wanting you to press the combination key that is either in your keyboard Controls or you placed in your controls ( mine had none..I had to enter them)... once it is re-centered.. you're in VR! go to general and adjust graphics LOW (NOTE: The PC and VR have different setups saved in MSFS2020, pay attention as to which you are changing.).. adjust and test till you like the feel.. and then enjoy VR... once setup it will also be in the Rift link menu or Steam HOME to launch from there.. either way seems to work for me.. and yes.. Using Virtual Desktop "Wireless", I also been able to run this with same results.. I have a 1200mps WiFi 6 connection to a router which might help.. Amazon: https://amzn.to/2IyYzZx

NOTE: looking at comments.. it is suggested that HDR is off in Windows and Oculus PC software in settings, turn BETA Public Channel to On... I assume I never turned HDR on in windows and at some point I must have turned BETA Public Channel on without remembering..

Remember.. My flight videos are how "not" to fly.. but still have fun.. I just put these up for me to look back on.. they are not always something people may like.. and I am "ok" with that.. Enjoy or not.. a thumbs down is as good as a thumbs up.. doesn't bother me one way or the other..:)
