can’t recall whether or not you’ve turned on or off, please disable the “motion compensation layer” in your OpenXR backend settings. This appears to be an engine bug prevalent in our version of Unreal and can occur regardless of playing in 2D or VR [*] If you are experiencing crashes while playing Riven with a Vive or Oculus HMD, please see our FAQ entry on how to alleviate them: [url=https://cyan.com/docs/riven-crashes-with-this-message-failed-to-wait-on-acquired-swapchain-image-this-usually-indicates-a-problem-with-the-openxr-runtime-how-do-i-fix-this/]https://cyan.com/docs/riven-crashes-with-this-message-failed-to-wait-on-acquired-swapchain-image-this-usually-indicates-a-problem-with-the-openxr-runtime-how-do-i-fix-this/[/url] [*] If you are experiencing crashes while playing Riven with a Vive HMD and the above suggestion does not alleviate the issue, please enable the “ViveVR OpenXR SRWorks” option through SteamVR, as this appears to prevent various crashes from occurring through OpenXR (unfortunately not something we can resolve). [*] Riven officially supports the specific HMDs listed in the requirements on our store page. Many folks have been able to play Riven without a hitch on their unsupported HMDs by tweaking various OpenXR or SteamVR settings. For issues encountered playing Riven on unsupported HMDs (like WMR devices, BigScreen devices, and more), we recommend checking out our community forums for support on those issues. [*] In certain VR configurations, the laser for selecting options might render behind the menu. This is an Unreal Engine issue that does not have an estimated fix from Epic at this time. [*] There is an issue with certain newer-gen Intel CPUs crashing on startup for many UE5 games, including ours. This appears to be a hardware issue and the only workaround is to modify BIOS settings.
