edit _HMD.hlsl using notepad++ or similar

 

you will find the masksize in there

 

Kegetys native mod is the most performant, next is the ClearWater version, IC Pass is the least performing

Thank u ..I set it 0.600 (for my hp reverb) and now is fine. I would try to lower it (for better performance) but it takes soo long to start. Maybe one of u guys knows the masksize for hp reverb.

As for the mod..I downloaded the one from page 1, I think that s the one u say it is the best, right?

Yes , though it has the most graphical reductions as well.

 

The main one is essentially forcing medium water on. If you are ok with that and not being able to use multiplayer servers, then that is the fastest

Hi all, im using this mod and it's deff helped in my frames, but im having issue with the reflection image used in the hud, it's really distracting in certain light conditions. Is there a way to remove this and have just a clear front window?

thats nothing to do with this MOD ... depending on the aircraft, there are options to turn reflections off, in the SPECIAL menu for each aircraft, (f-18 and 16 only at the moment) others have special cockpit mods available

Ok, but since I hadn't noticed it previous to installing the vr shaders mod, I thought that it was part of the package.

Nothing I must admit, sorry for off-topic...

Nevertheles, I have a question on the shadders mod, I searched the multiple pages of this topic but couldn't find my answer: the called "clear water" mod is different from the base mod? How do I download this specific one? And finally is the water with the mod visually identical to it is without the mod?

Thanks in advance.

 

Edit: ah, sorry, I just saw it was in your signature... And so, what about "eye candy"? Original DCS water is very pretty, I just want to be sure to keep it!

with clear water, you keep the games native water but it will cost you perf.

With the Pimax 5k+ on Normal FoV I found mask size of .725 to be about right. If anybody else has been trying to dial it in.

 

Has anybody tried large FoV? I haven't because I run in 144hz mode. But I'm curious of what the mask size is for large FoV

 

I found .725 right if you are using parallel projection mode, but you shouldn't need to use parallel projection mode anymore. It used to required for VR zoom to work right, but it causes a large FPS and clarity hit. Without parallel projection on try what was quoted here earlier of .590 for normal FOV. Without parallel projection Pimax 5k+ large FOV mask size is somewhere between .625 and .650, trying to fine tune it now but takes awhile since the shaders have to be redone each time.

Hi all,

I'm just quite curious: I fly DCS in VR with Oculus Rift S and I made some tests editing _HMD.hlsl file, pushing the #MASKSIZE par down to 0.480 and it still looks great, no black borders or so seen inside.

 

And great performance with the shaders, as always!

 

Any feedback about this specific parameter from other Oculus Rift S users? I understand the parameter can vary depending on the IPD setting each one of us uses, nominal one is perfect for me anyway.

 

Thank you and thanks again for all the efforts and the great job with these shaders!

2.5.6.49798 stable - VR Shader Mod?

 

Hi guys, is there any planned release or a shader mod version for the DCS 2.5.6.49798 stable version?

 

 

 

The DCS World 2.5.6.49314 Shaders still works for the new stable version, but i got a strange cloud or wave reflections from the ocean not dissapearing when looking around, that's the only one graphic thing that annoys, or buggy...

And the newest version for the beta 2.5.6.50321 does not work for the stable version. You'll get an error message.

 

Any help, does anyone know, if there's a mercy from the mod devs for the stable version, would be very nice.

Cause of the mod i got such an improvement on fps for VR, i just fly VR.

And for now, everything is readable. Got the steam index.

 

 

Thx 4 support.:thumbup:

delete the water.fx from the mod before installing the mod itself. run a repair, delete that file, reinstall.
