eatthis Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 i cant see a damn thing until very close, even a guy with the same headset can spot aircraft WAAAAAAY before i can. ive even tried his settings and its still much worse for me. what settings help with spotting visually? 7700k @5ghz, 32gb 3200mhz ram, 2080ti, nvme drives, valve index vr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supmua Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 If using the same settings doesn’t yield the same results then it is either your vision or your valve Index or the way you wear it that would cause suboptimal image? Btw, the new SteamVR 1.16.1 beta is a game changer with framerate locking option. Motion smoothing + locked framerate results in very smooth stutter free flying experience.

If I understand correctly from the patch notes we are able also to lock to 20fps and have the compositor to generate the other 60 frames (in the 80hz setting of course). But is it dynamic or fixed? It prevent frametime spikes resulting in judder free gameplay. Of course it is fixed, so you will need to specify the framerate you want to lock (now up to 6 extrapolations instead of 3). Think of it as vsync on + max frame limiter for flatscreens. In my case, I lock my framerate at 40 as I use 80 Hz mode and just crank up the graphic settings to crazy high level until my frametimes hit the limit. This results in crazy good image fidelity with very smooth flying experiences. This trick also works incredibly well with MSFS, I’m talking running everything at high settings (high volumetric clouds, ambient occlusion, reflection, etc.) in congested areas such as NYC or London with smooth 40 fps (small planes only).

I must agree this has done wonders for MSFS. Very smooth even with settings increased.

GregP Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Can one of you guys post a screenshot of the new menu options that were added to force framerate locking? I’m using a G2 and according to the VR2DCS site, DCS uses SteamVR as its compositor too, so if that’s true, then according to the beta changelog notes this should work for G2s also.

I believe G2 uses WMR compositor. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/250820?updates=true&emclan=103582791435040972&emgid=3046089750386056563 Better Smoke - Better Trees Caucasus - Better Trees Syria - Better Trees Mariana - Clear Canopy Glass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
