Shaders mod for better VR performance (experimental)

[Sr.]

How are you measuring “improvement”, I typically see between 2 and 3ms improvement in GPU frame times

 

Mostly from what I see, the in game FPS counter, FPSVR(Steam), and the SteamVR headset GPU graph.

 

Just not that much difference in the counters (GPU & CPU). What is very noticeable is the jaggy/shimmery look with the mod applied. Shadows, top of the HUD have jagged edges... not to mention sitting on the runway looking toward buildings and parking area (Nellis)

If you have motion vectoring you will either get your frame rate or half of your frame rate; depending on how ylu have your vive configured thats likely 90/45.

 

as for jaggy/shimmery thats a problem at your end

Do you mean "Motion Smoothing" in Steam VR? I do have that set per application/DCS

[speed-of-heat]

Yes it as a few different names dependimf on how you set it...and if you steam vr, wmr, or oculus.

@speed-of-heat did you update the shaders you have in your signature with @Taz1004 fixes for the current OB? Thanks buddy!

[speed-of-heat]

no i didn't sorry, all you have to do is either add Taz's files in after the game is moded with the shaders, or if you want a single "file" just add Taz's files to my unzipped files. For reference you can't mod speedrees and get an IC Pass version

[speed-of-heat]

Gimmie a few ... i will update the files in my post

[speed-of-heat]

@whisky.actual i have added the files, to my sig block Kegety's version + Taz's fix and a Clear Water Version, note you cant have IC Pass and Taz;s fix

[spacefox]

@speed-of-heat your sig is not visible still. Can you post link to your site to download the new fix

I mostly play multiplayer, that's a bummer :cry:

 

ED needs to fix it on their side?

Ive been getting weird blocky vegetation in the PG map since the last update. Ill try to post a screen later.

This. The new forums isnt showing the sig lines.

Ok. I just found in my Settings that you have to enable "Show Signature" But it is there.

 

Thanks again @speed-of-heat

you are welcome, as i said i'm just the butcher, but glad it helps!

I've noticed lately when the light is just right, as I'm flying around a target range the targets appear as tiny white dots in normal viewing. When I use VR zoom or spyglass zoom the dot effect goes away.

 

It's almost like a column of vehicles with their daytime running lights on.

 

 

Edit: Saw this is the recent change log post

• night time unit visibility, flickering white dots - fixed.

The Search function didnt come up with anything, but does someone have a good MASKSIZE value for a Reverb G1? I'm getting a bit of artifacting on the edges.

[Hammer1-1]

I have mine set at .650

[Slash621]

I have mine set at .650

 

I concur with this. I also use that setting on my G1.

Can you tell me what the masksize is for the Samsung Odyssey +?

[speed-of-heat]

From memory I ran mine at about 580

[timcat]

For me .61 worked.

thanks for the quick answers!

@speed-of-heat Thanks for all your work! But could you explain or show (in pictures, maybe?) what exactly the clear water part of your variant does? I'm not quite sure what the benefits and/or drawbacks are and I can't actually find anything on it, maybe I'm not looking hard enough...

[speed-of-heat]

In 2.5.6 (I can't remember which exact version) you get transparent water, you can see this at beaches or over the Persian Gulf free flight missions when flying low, the base shaders mod, removes this for performance optimisation reasons. my clear water version of the mod puts it back...

[laertesson]

Hi guys, I'm a bit behind, is the original kegetys shader working correctly with current OB or do we need to use the Taz tree fix version provided by speed-of-heat?

 

thanks for your help as always
