jonsky7 Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) Where are you guys finding the settings for wmr for steam to select beta version? I've installed WMR, and if I search for it in the store it says it is my library, but if I go to my library page I don't see it in the list. Thanks edit - NVM found it Edited January 25, 2019 by jonsky7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks edit - NVM found itI also think you need steam VR beta installed too. When I tried this expirament, wmr is under the software section at the top where you can filter by games/apps. I set wmr to open beta and it just said beta next to the name but when it booted up it looked the same as before until I updated steam VR to beta too. Either way I am back on the stable steam VR and stable wmr app. You can still scale resolution to 200 without the beta. Open steam VR, go to settings, on the left side select video and then tick the checkbox that says manual override. Mine already said 200 when I ticked that box.

Nodak Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Since the last WMR patch, it's now the default setting, there is no longer a need to set it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSharpe Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Since the last WMR patch, it's now the default setting, there is no longer a need to set it. So the trash image quality of DCS with this VR set with supposedly great displays is just the limits of the hardware? Great... How utterly disappointing this technology is.

Have you changed the settings pixel density etc to get it looking good?Sorry, I've literally been struggling with configuring DCS with this VR headset for months, and was close to giving up entirely. It turns out that turning down my PD in DCS from 1.4 to 1.0 improved my clarity problems immensely. It's still not as sharp as I would like, but isn't the mess that it was. This was against practically all advice given by many people. It's actually playable now. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fargo007 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 The same for me. 100% on the Steam VR SS, and 1.5 PD in DCS is the right combo for me, although some prefer it the other way around.

JaBoG32_Prinzartus Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 What would be the difference between 200% Steam VR SS with (in-game)PD 1.0 and 100% Steam VR SS with (in-game) PD 2.0; Shouldn't both configs show the same effect and same performance? In fact, doesn't this invoke the very same API-fucntion-call on the graphic card? :dunno: Windows 10, I7 8700k@5,15GHz, 32GB Ram, GTX1080, HOTAS Warthog, Oculus Rift CV1, Obutto R3volution, Buttkicker [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] ЯБоГ32_Принз Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crab Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I like the in game because it's in game; makes it easier to adjust. Not a small consideration when starting out because there's a lot of graphics settings fiddling getting your frame rate where it needs to be while also trying to get the best visuals. The thing is you end up going back to PD and adjusting after those settings so keeping it closer=better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleepara Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) in game PD vs steam SS from our calculations and experiments it seems that 200% SS is in correlation with approx 1.45 in game PD with odyssey. I was able to reproduce the clearest image with maximum of 208% or 209% SS and 1.0 in game PD. important thing to notice is that when WMR reprojection kicks in limiting the output to 45 frames - the image quality is affected as well. its artifact is a very slight blur that disappears when you get back to ~90 fps. so guys with constant motion vector setting be advised. note - msaaX2 wont disable the clear image even with 208% SS. it may look a bit softer in game but the odyssey still delivers its best available image which breaks when going over 209% or so or choosing higher than 1.4 in game PD with SS on 100% Edited February 27, 2019 by sleepara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember you can force SS in steam under the video tab of steam VR settings but this does it for everything.

DutchCoolHand Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 What you can do is start DCS, go to steamvr beta, open settings and click on Applications. DCS should be listed in there. this will give you a percentage. I figured this out last night when I got my new RTX2070. But I found that I get better graphics quality and FPS if I use a SS of 100% and set the PD to 1.6. I do use MSAA 2x to get nice and smooth. I love this new setup.

DutchCoolHand Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I understand what you are saying Stuart, I had the same thing happen. I had to try it a few times before it worked. Have the settings window open, start DCS, use Alt-Tab to go to the settings window. After 3 times (don't know why) DCS.EXE showed up and I could select it. This then showed it in percentage.

DutchCoolHand Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 As others have stated the motion reprojection does not seem to make any difference for me. I just tested it and turning it gives me the same image quality and FPS. This seems to be since the last update. Let's see what happens tomorrow.

This might not be the right way of describing it, jitteryis better, I have played with the anti aliasing settings but it does not make a difference.
