Can't launch VR

I have been playing WarThunder in VR an absolute boat load for the past few months and it has worked flawlessly every time until this major update which has made it only ever launch in flat screen mode.
When activating VR within the graphics options it just shrinks the game down until you alt tab back in and it is still in flat screen mode. Deactivating Easy Anti Cheat does not affect it at all.
I see BORlS1 had the exact same problem back in 2021but there was nothing in the forum stating if it was ever fixed. I’ve already tried launching with and without both Oculus and Steam VR set as the OpenXR default

I’ll attach the logs

I have the same issue i got it to launch one time by an order of operations but then it just wouldnt do it again game launches fine normally just VR mode. ive sent multiple reports when it crashes trying to launch vr with the game open. if you dont fix this swiftly i will endeavor to spam those reports hundreds of times.

It’s an issue to do with the software. APARRENTLY a month ago Oculus updated their software which killed everyones Rifts and OG headsets. I knew nothing about this until my friend linked me this forum post Solved: Oculus Rift controllers not working in-game after update which the answer was on page 6 to a reddit post which then had a patch to update the software which intern fixes the issue. Never in a million years would I have guessed that but it makes sense now.
