I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue I am having with my DK2. At random times my head position will reset to the drivers lap. I can't find a reliable way to reproduce the issue, and it doesn't seem to depend on any particular event in the game. I can be looking left or right through a turn, or even looking directly ahead and it will move my position.
After it happens I can quickly hit the button on my wheel to reset the rifts position, and it doesn't appear to happen again in that race, but I might not have played long enough after it happens to experience it again. I think I have had it happen twice in a row after ending a race and starting a new one at a new track.
I thought this might be because of the location I have the camera, I have a triple screen setup that makes it impossible to have the ideal camera position that Oculus recommends. I currently have the camera on a tripod behind the monitors pointed down to my position. I setup things away from my desk and put the camera in the recommended location, but I still experienced the issue.
Is there any debugging or logs I can take a look at that might help diagnose the issue? Has anyone else experienced this happening? I don't believe I've had any other rift demos / games have this issue for me. Elite dangerous has the g-force camera movements that are really annoying, but I don't believe I have had the camera position reset while playing.
I was just joking about the refund thing, and I think I might have even found the solution to my problem. There seems to be a bug or mistake in the network code of the Q patch. Other members have experienced the same symptoms I have. Switching to the P patch has cured the problem, and thankfully I still can play on Q servers. I won't be so quick to say my problems are solved, but so far so good.
*edit*
This forum is cursed, everytime I think I have the solution and the game is running fine again, I post my solution here and BAM, the lag comes back. I am up for any suggestions you all might have. Computer specs below:
AMD 4000+
A8N-SLI
(2) Nvidia 6800GT - SLI'd
2gb Ram

Creative labs Audigy 2
Cable modem connection
Windows XP Pro
Drivers are all up to date. Game runs at 60+ FPS at 1600X1200 with FSAA 4X and AA 8X
I am having a similar problem, the server might have a 70 ms ping in the server browser, but when I connect my ping skyrockets and the game is unplayable. This wasn't a problem playing on the demo servers.
