    So i did not fire up the game since like 1-1,5 months, before it was running fine.

    Right now: when i start the game, it fire up steam vr, starts to load, but stuck on black screen. in task manager it looks like the game runs, but no picture and sound (some ppl reported misplaced screen, but it is not the case this time, tried to turn around, reset view, nothing...i tlooks like the game couldn't get that far, stuck before)

    What i tried: steam vr beta in/out, steam beta in/out, steam file check, 2 weird command line options to disable hardware acc., Nvidia driver update, to start the game from desktop/Oculus home.

    Hardware changes since last succesful attempt: none

    Software changes since last successful attempt: Oculus runtime, Nvidia driver, Raceroom update

    All other game in Oculus run fine with or without steam VR

    Does it start without VR and have you tried to verify steam cache for Raceroom?

    have you unchecked "use steam Vr theatre mode" or whatever it's called (right-click the game in Steam, select properties or options)
