Insider Program Destroys Steam VR Compatibility for Windows Mixed Reality
As in it was installed last night.
Completely ruined my vr experience and I'm not exactly on a modest machine (8 core 4.2, 16G ram, 6GB 1060 graphics)
Cliff house takes 3 times as long to load and is choppy as hell, getting an average of 45 frames in vrmark, before the insider build 120 fps was my average.
I'm not sure what they did to wmr but it's a game changer and not in a good way.
Appreciate the heads up! I'll keep my eyes peeled.
Likewise. My laptop (the problem computer) is packing a 970GTXM, 8 core 3.3, 16 ram...running all apps off of an SSD >:( I, too, have had a drop in performance in the Cliff House since the update that added the Steam VR ads.
Hoping somebody hears our cries sooner than later

ah! Great idea rolling back Windows. I'm unable to do so on my laptop...so I'll have to tough this update period out :/

But wait! It gets worse!
As of today, my Odyssey is displaying everything INVERTED. Completely upside down from the start.
I attempted to reinstall Windows Mixed Reality Home....and hit an error telling me to check my WINDOWS UPDATE!I have been unable to get off the Windows Insider Program on this computer for seven weeks. Unreal.
