VR Shaders mod for better VR experience


Recommended Posts

Hi

 

DCS updated today to 2.7.5.10869 and the shaders aren't working anymore and DCS doesn't launch. After removing the shaders, DCS launches again.

2.7.0.4625 Mod still works after updating to 2.7.5.10869, so no errors for me when starting DCS.

However, I no longernotice a FPS increase with the Mod, so exactly the same FPS as without Mod.

2 months ago a had +18% increase.

 

Somebody experiences the same?

No probs here.

Perhaps I've not waited enough time before the launching, but after 6 minutes of the first menu when launching, I thought DCS was crashed, as if it wasn't in connection with ED servers.

Without the shaders, it needs around 20'' to launch.

Yep, I had to rebuild shaders last night for some odd reason too. Spent a good 20 minutes waiting for the cockpits and other planes to load last night in server; they eventually loaded. Meanwhile I went and had dinner. It happens.

I've deleted the shaders before launching.

I launch DCS and I have tea and finally DCS works after six minutes.

 

After each aircraft and each maps needs a long first launch, but for that I already knew it. Strangely, the longer was the F-15.

 

But the main thing: That's working now !

It seems that mod does not work in 2.7.6 due to speedtrees 5.1

Best of luck. Maybe you can look into disabling whatever is done to change trees?

 

I wasn’t aware of anything. Possible the simple grass causing the issue?

I think this seems to work:

 

 DCS VR Shaders mod for 2.7.6 Hotfix.zip

 

note you will need to completely uninstall the existing mod and or repair before applying this fix.

 

This hack simply removes the files in the 5.1 directory which includes speedtrees and speedtrees shadows which was causing the error.

 

there may be some performance implications, I honestly haven’t measured how much. 
 

it’s a hack not a fix, for that we need @Kegetysto fix the code.

 

After you have repaired or completely uninstalled, You just need to install the hotfix, it has everything you need.

Make sure the 5.1 files are commented out in the metashaders\terrain sub directory of the mod

You also have to uninstall the mod first..or repair.

If you just install this version over the old version it will still break as the 5.1 files will still be modded

After update to the latest OB, I thought the mod would have been installed…
