Kariyann71 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Hello everybody, what is the best way, increase Pixel Density in SteamVR application or use the Pixel Density adjustement in the VR settings of DCS ?

ElementLT Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Are you using Oculus Rift? If so - I actually prefer to use the Oculus Tray Tool to set the PD. Oculus Tray Tool Coming Soon...

dburne Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I myself will always use a PD or SS setting if available in the game, otherwise I use in my case the Oculus Tray Tool ( Rift ).

fitness88 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 After testing the 4 ASW options as posted https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=218202 #19 I then took a look at my PD which I had at 1.5. I tried bringing it down to 1.2 with hardly noticeable change then finally to 1.0 with a slight change but not enough to outweigh the big jump in performance. So now I'll see about trying MSAA and SSAA, I seem to recall it was hard on performance. Any input on these would be appreciated, also I was wondering about the option 'Motion Blur' as if we don't have enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nachomaga Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I think Motion Blur don’t work in VR. Is personal taste, but I prefer to turn up the PD (I do it in DCS) and turn down MSAA. And I recommend the Shaders Mod, amazing performance improvement. Sad it fail the IC for most of multiplayer servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dburne Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Thanks, I'll check the performance hit...did you notice much? Up to about 1.4, not too bad. With 2x MSAA it looks pretty good to me.

fitness88 Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Up to about 1.4, not too bad. With 2x MSAA it looks pretty good to me. MSAA at 2x is a bit of a hit, which I could afford but don't notice enough improvement to leave it on. The same with PD, I can leave it at 1.5 but don't see enough improvement over 1.2 to leave it on. Of course playing single player is a much better overall experience than jumping into a m-player scenario with 10+ players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fitness88 Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Yep agree, single player is all I do. When I used to fly another sim, Jane's, I only flew MP missions and it was great. With DCS I do a mix of both. I must say though it's really fantastic when you fly with someone on a good connection. I miss not flying more with others but I'm too spiritic as to my times when I fly. What I really miss is Hyper Lobby...that was what really enabled pilots to fly with each other quite easily with no planning...it was a 24 hr ready room Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fitness88 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Those were the days my friend... ... Wouldn't it be a big bonus for the multi-player community to have HL work with DCS...I can always dream... It was also great for live chat as well!
