Game hangs with VR headset connected

[Jason McNew]

After selecting a mission, viewing the briefing, and clicking to start the mission, the screen goes blank and the game hangs. The music continues playing. The loading bar with the tie fighter does not appear. The game does not crash, but attempting to alt+F4 results in windows saying the application is not responding. I tried several missions with the same results.

If the headset is disconnected (USB port), the game loads and plays just fine.

The headset is a Samsung HMD Odyssey (WindowsMR.) SteamVR->WindowsMR integration is enabled.

Adding an option to disable cutscene playback to further investigate this issue.

Please test again with the latest build.

With 20180508, I can't reproduce the VR headset being connected making a difference with the crash (with or without cutscenes enabled.)

It still does hang if cutscenes are enabled. The process is sitting at a almost exactly 1GB (1,021,676K).

It does not hang if cutscense are disabled.

I purged C:\Program Files (x86)\XWVM before reinstall today before testing.

Thank you. This confirm that the problem is a memory leak on the cutscene player, then.

I will close this issue and open a new one stating that problem specifically.
