Yup, this happened to me on link cable. Really crazy odd. The black squares were growing even in pause mode. I had many of them growing and fading until one engulfed my entire left eye. Just quit the mission, not had it since. I've not reported it, probably should do.

 

Well, i just did it:

Is anybody experiencing heavy stutters after long play in multiplayer using Link? I was hoping that with 2.7 and/or V28 will go away but I had it again yesterday

[Lorenzo.D]

I use for test the Mission
Mission qualification supercarrier cold start Persian gulf on the menu f18.
When the First f18 in front of me takeoff and i see to It this become blurry immediately and i have texture set to High.
My f18 and my mfds Is All clear super graphic but not for the other aircradt in the air. What i must change the PD?

Erm, you might be talking about when they takeoff you see a blurry/ghosting. This is the reprojection at work, nothing you can do about it I'm afraid. You can try lowering all your settings to the absolute minimum, as you will need the full minimum of 72fps to not see that. But then everything else will look a bit rubbish all the time.

On Oculus tray tool there Is set default pixel density for game that don t have pixel density option so if you use pd1 on dcs and 1.1 on debug tool i think you have 1 PD. Sorry for My bad english.

So the slider on the Oculus link software Is not the PD and must go all ti the right?

If you move all the way to the right 1.7 @ 90mhz you will see sharp images in cockpit . Even with DCS P.D. 1.0

Yes, but that's very heavy on performance. I only use 80hz at the same resolution (marked as 1.6 for me I think). I find 72hz I can see slight strobing and makes my eyes tired much quicker otherwise I would use this instead.

Yes I've tried 80hz also . I tend to run at 72hz as DCS wont meet 90fps . AWS is set too off , but I'm still testing only in single player thou .

Change change change all aspect the result Is the Same.max PD i can use Is 1.3 msaa off
72 hZ all the slider to the right anisotropic filter 8x other options Is Low or similar to Low vr setting apart of texture ti High e view distanze ti High.
Asw off.today i Will try ti mi change bitrate on ott.
also you have this problem on that Mission?

Usually it’s not below 70 and the incident is after 50-60 min on a multiplayer setup.

So battery id good . As when it starts getting low you get lots of lag and flashing plus warnings its self 

[Lorenzo.D]

I think when the batteri Is 99*100 100*100 there Is a problema direct on graphic card

View distance makes a big difference to performance.

today i monitoring my pc hardware performance. on the mission qualification supercarrier cold start caucaso
.in this mission i have 18 fps but i don't have  maximum use of cpu gpu ram and vram.
supersampling1.2 pd from dcs 1
why the fps don't raise if i have more gpu cpu e ram to offer? thanks
the option in dcs are the defoult vr the asw is disabled from ott

[Hoirtel]

Don't know if anyone here has tried airlink with DCS yet. I was very impressed. Few clicks to enable and it ran exactly the same as link for me using my standard ISP router. Couldn't believe it. I never tried VD as I was sure that my router wasn't good enough. Having said how good it is I don't think I will use link in the long term only due to the battery drain, which will be quicker than using the quest 2 as a standalone headset. Pretty good though, I use a wireless headset so I was totally free. I may use it again if I do heavy a BFM session. That will be amazing. 

[Matrix9]

My Quest 2 recently updated to v 29. Subsequently I experienced constant blue screen WHEA uncorrectable errors every time I entered DCS gameplay.

 

After many hours frustrating troubleshooting I did a factory reset of my Quest 2. It appears to have cured the problem.

 

If I have issues with this in future, it'll be the first thing I try.

You might find that your overall CPU use is low, but the main thread is maxed so that's why it looks like you have room to spare. You need to look at individual core use.

Anyone has managed to disable antialising from Oculus settings? When i had CV1 i could diable it but with Quest 2 i cant, it made the screen more blurry on CV1

Possible memory build up , Lots of problems in multiplayer .

That setting is in settings in the headset when linked to desktop, but I believe that it's only for the Desktop GUI, not anything that renders directly like a game.

I think Loren is  saying that the out side world is blurry and so are  objects targets and airframes ,  but cockpit is clear and sharp .

I have the same problem . If it is a problem . I'm running at 90Hz now 1.3 in oculus software v29.

I might look into this a new update is coming too V30 . This also uses Air link up dates . . 

Ill have to track down some YouTube videos .

Has anyone tested this . Running in DCS .

[RoboHackfeld]

Anyone here running DCS with Quest 2 and an AMD GPU expecially 6900xt?

 

Got my 6900xt a couple of weeks ago and yes it increased the quality alot but this should be easy against my old 1070 (nonti).

But I really thought about a more better result than I get now.

 

My specs:

MSI X470 Gaming Plus

Ryzen 5 3600

32 GB 3200MHz RAM

Samsung M2 evo 970

AMD Rx6900xt

 

Using my Oculus via Link Cable and DCS via Oculus Link -> Steam VR

 

OTT-Settings:

Resolution: 3696 (dont know right now but the highest available)

Bitrate: 500

Distortion Curve: High

PD: 1.0

ASW: Still playing with it if I like it to 45 or off

 

Oculus Link Settings:

90Hz

SS: 1.0

 

Steam VR Settings:

 

Supersampling per eye: something arround 2800*2800

rest: untouched

 

DCS Settings:

 

Details: High

Shadows: std

Water: medium

MSAA x4 (I hate thos stairs effect)

Visibly Range: High

Trees: Max

Trees Details: lowest

Heat Blur and Lense Stuff Off

Screens to 512

PD: 1.0

 

I have a nice optic I guess but I get only arround 36-40 FPS (F18) at Carrier and 45-55 in the air (F14 a litte less). Lowprofile Flight ist like 45 but looking to the sides I can not really spot any ground vehicle because its everything like "doubled" .

 

Any ideas? I think my CPU is not the best for this unoptimized Simulation but befor I replace this,I want to get the most out of what I got so far.

Are there any people can share some nice AMD Driver settings? All I got so far from this thread are ppl using Nvidia Cards.

 

What I managed to figure out so far regarding AMD Drivers was the minimum frequenzy.

Min: 2000 (stock 500)

Max 2500 (stock 2500)

This was a first eye opener But thats my current status.

 

Would really like to exchange some ideas with other people running same or similar system.

 

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Regards

Robin

I'm afraid I have no experience with any AMD cards, I do have some experience with the quest 2 and I can see a few points that might help.

 

• I don't think you need to use steam VR. Definitely not for stand alone DCS, and I'm sure steam DCS is the same. DCS actually supports oculus natively and so you should avoid adding more programs in the chain if you don't need to.
• Oculus debug tool - with the last few updates I now leave bitrate and width at 0. Oculus is now able to manage these on its own. If you do use bitrate then 350 is more than enough and width will still be best automatically.
• Oculus debug tool - distortion curve high is more distorted than low. Although this probably will allow a little extra performance.
• Oculus graphics in oculus app - Try setting at 80hz? This allows slightly higher frame time while allowing smooth. I don't see a difference from 90. 72 is too flickery for me but this will be even easier still
• Oculus graphics in oculus app - I have a high end gpu so I set the res slider all the way to the right you should too. Makes a huge difference but don't add any PD or SS anywhere else!
• DCS Settings - MSAAx4 this is a very heavy setting. I too don't like the jaggies and this really does remove them but at the cost of lots of fps and it also reduces general sharpness slightly.

Also something(s) to try. I select 0.9 for FOV on both vertical and horizontal which I barely notice but does improve performance a little.

 

Hope that helps.

Thanks alot for this ideas.

 

I will give it a try to run DCS only via the Oculus Link App. Before I got the AMD GPU I tried it alot but the look without the Steam SS was all the way not good. I will try this with raising the SS via the OCulus Link App. Distortion and Bit Rate I will also try to adjust like you've said.

 

Thanks alot I will let ypou know if this works out.
