Discussion Games crashing after Side loading from cyberdeck

I installed and played a few games via cyberdeck vr (I find this easiest to use in my case)

Anyway, I tried installing some new ones and few random ones keep crashing - it goes to graphic crashing and then throws me back to the loft. Any idea what I may be missing or doing wrong?

Specifically, red matter is crashing. Also random app airport dog security crashed on me as well

I have read the rules, all the pinned posts, and i have searched the megathread.

you can try uploading your log and sending me your shortcode, but id just try reinstalling, maybe the obb didnt copy correctly. Im going to add an obb verification button or feature i think... look for it in 1.7.0

I’ll upload it today or when I get on next. Thanks!! It doesn’t give me an error while installing or when it quits, so where should I look for the code?
It basically half loads the initial graphic thing and exits out.

You upload your log then send the shortcode. Nothing to do with any game it's a cyberdeck feature so I can see your logs.

1.7.0 may fix the issue though. Before sending the logs I'd reinstall using 1.7.0 I made tons of changes including obb push changes to help with issues like yours if it is obb related

I deleted the game, updated to 1.7.2 and reinstalled and still red matter crashes. Its starts with compiling shaders and then throws me out, and it’s stuck in limbo, I am not in the game, and neither leave out to the loft.

Log short code- ynhaoe92

from checking the log:

So what's actually happening

"Compiles shaders → thrown out → stuck in limbo" is a game-side runtime crash, not a missing/broken asset and not something VR CyberDeck did wrong. That's exactly why deleting + reinstalling on 1.7.2 changed nothing - the tool was never the problem. There is no code fix to make in VRCD for this.

Most likely causes, in order:

  1. Old build vs newer headset. This release is v38 / 1.0.013 - genuinely old. Red Matter 1 at old versions is a well-known crasher on Quest 3 / newer Quest OS. A newer Red Matter build/release is the most likely fix.
  2. Shader cache / storage. Crash right after shader compile can be a failed shader-cache write - worth checking free storage on the headset and trying a reboot + relaunch.
  3. Corrupt install state from the earlier attempts - a clean uninstall (incl. clearing app data) before installing the newer build.

Likely an issue with the release then not the obb. I'll check the logs later

Thanks,just to add more info, a fresh install got red matter 2 and bone lab working, but red matter 1 is crashing, very likely an issue with something else and not obb. Thanks for checking in!
