The course line does appear to have a mind of it's own when dropping the scale. Seems ok at 100nm, but anything less it seems to be unreliable or non existent even if the Tacan or Waypoint is visible on the map and you are well within range.

You were running your G2 at 60hz last I saw. What concessions have you had to make with the Aero and are you now using reprojection?

A short cinematic I created which illustrates some of the planning and tactics employed by the RAF during the Cold War. Enfield 1 is the OC from RAFAIR 41Sqn, a veteran RAF Jaguar GR1 pilot.

I have set a path for Simshaker to load with the sim in the custom app section. loads fine, however I need it to load in after DCS has initialised not before or it won't work. I see there is an option in the custom app section to set parameters for the app. Will this do what I need and if so what would I put in there?

The default VR view is very high requiring a significant duck of the head to see the full reflector sight. Easy to adjust, but with the pilot body matched up and from studying the pilots eyeline in F2 the default view seems about right if a little high, while centring the reflector sight seems too low on the pilot body. Would a real Spitfire require the pilot to duck to see the full sight or are things a little off?

4090/G2@60HZ/Turbo on. Having no problems with the Toolkit at all. My sharpest image is with 25% DCS sharpening and 60 Toolkit CAS sharpening.

Same with my G2. Overly huge dot in the distance then almost completely disappears from sight when close in.

I use Post Processing Sunglasses dark in most situations. This does a great job reducing the flicker. Edit- I should add, alongside an extended period of use at 60hz. I soon got used to it.

I dropped to 60hz 6 months ago. Took me a few days to adjust to the flicker, but with the right use of the XR toolkit you can eliminate it almost entirely. Providing you can make a minimum of 60 FPS in most scenarios it is definitely worth an extended period of testing. I'm now very reluctant to purchase a different headset that can't run at 60 as the headroom it gives you is better than a generational GPU upgrade and I sure don't want to go back to reprojection.

Cheers for the reply and photo's. I was aware of this option. What I was looking for is a replication of the HUD bug that indicates the current selected heading i.e. - WP/Tacan. Reason being when performing a Tac Turn with a wingman at low level you have to look back at the HUD or HSI to know when to level out. I'm quite certain it was there in the JHMCS at one point in development.

I'm reasonably sure at one point the DCS F18 had the heading bug displayed in the JHMCS heading tape. Has this feature been removed or forgotten or am I missing a setting for it somewhere?

I also installed this app recently. Time frames match. Will delete and report back if any joy.

Same issue here (13700k/4090/G2) that hasn't improved with the latest patch. Random freezes/blackouts/massive lag, mostly on DCS menu screen. Frame times CPU and GPU are fine (under 10ms but FPS 0-20. Requires task manager end process and restart. ST version works ok with the most obvious consistent difference (other than sporadic freezes) being the loading screen from menu to actual gameplay . In MT the screen remains entirely black whilst loading, while in ST the aircraft loading image is displayed.

You have clouds ultra and water high. This will kill FPS. I’m running a 4090 with clouds low and water medium. 30fps with re projection on a MP server is not so bad anyway. You could me making low 40’s and showing 30fps. Also cockpit global illumination should be off.

Turns out I can launch in VR if if I launch with admin rights but only if I open the Mixed Reality Portal after I have launched and the first small splash screen appears. If Mixed Reality Portal is open first I get nothing at all. Any ideas? Solved. It seems there is a bug in my latest motion platform software. Uninstalling it solved the problem immediately.

I have always installed in C/program files with no issues until this one.

RTX4090/13700K/WINDOWS 11/OPEN BETA/ /REVERB G2/Open XR tools preview runtime checked/VR checked in DCS I was in the MP lobby in VR yesterday and realised I needed to update. After update DCS would now not launch in VR at all. No splash screen, nothing in MT or ST. it would launch in flat screen so I performed a full DCS re-install. Still no joy in VR. I tried with a new saved games folder with the same result. Performed a full Windows 11 re-install last night, downloaded DCS and it worked first time. but just the once. Since then same result. I've attached the logs in the new Saved Games folder. Would really appreciate some help, pulling my hair out with it. dcs.log dcs.log.old

G2/4090/13700k here. I used to use 45/30fps with MR and thought I was quite happy until committing to a good run with 60hz which I have adapted to and stuck with. Little things like appreciating an F3 flyby or a smooth merge in a dogfight make a huge difference to me when running at full refresh. Also clarity is overall much better and deeper somehow. I now have a pre-order on the Pimax Crystal which will likely push me back into reprojection. Might be a deal breaker that. Guess we'll see when the first DCS reviews with it come out.

I've been running DCS at 60Hz/100% with no reprojection for a few months now. After 6 years of using VR I finally have good clarity and headroom enough to not be constantly tinkering with settings. As for the flickering, initially I though no chance, now it is barely noticeable at start-up and completely forgotten once flying . It was a jump in performance and visuals I've not experienced with any new card or processor.

G2 here. I cannot get past the menu with Toolkit enabled regardless of reprojection setting in Open XR tools. If I disable the Toolkit missions will load, however performance is terrible and the sound is bugged (silence for the most part, but some switches can be heard) When I first started DCS after the update the Toolkit intro popped up and all my settings were at default. I then turned on reprojection, HAM mask etc before loading a mission. I'm guessing that's why I can't get past the menu, because I have reprojection enabled in the Toolkit but I'm unable to open it to change it due to DCS crashing. Is there a file I can delete to return Toolkit DCS settings to default? EDIT - I found "Safe Mode" in Toolkit settings.

Apologies, I'm so tired of all this tinkering I misread your post. I'm using XR for a while now. No idea if it will default to that now if you're not using it already.

Not in my case. Tried all of the above. Can now get DCS to run with toolkit off auto repro, but it runs terribly. 3090/I7 13700K. Losing faith gradually.

Still crashes for me with toolkit disabled.

Same here. Have done repair, disabled Open XR Toolkit, all mods. Still crashes at the main menu.

Has there been an update? I'm not seeing it in the UI
