Same... only mine was trees at certain angles at night. It was like a negative image "shadow" of the trees, but they would shift with head movement.

I'm seeing this strange, grainy effect in the distance. Flew 2 Fast action missions with FA-18 and one with P-51. It seems to appear mostly over water. Tried 4 other maps and have only seen it on the new Normandy. Even more bizarre when zooming in on a screen shot.

yikes

I accomplish this by mapping left/right click to HOTAS buttons (with modifier). For my use I've mapped right click to modifier+gun trigger, and left click to modifier+weapon release. I even use the pinky scroll wheel on my X-56 throttle for mouse scroll occasionally. After using the mouse to "align" the VR cross with my line of sight, I trigger it by pressing one of my mapped buttons on the HOTAS. Then I simply look and click loft or right. Only time I need to recenter is if I had to look to my extreme left or right rear. I do like the looks and apparent functionality of that device. Seems it an analog stick with rotation X axis and 2 easy to find buttons.

Why not something like this?

The key to flying the Normandy & Channel maps... Stay the hell away from Paris and London.

Imagine my surprise with a 4080

Since you're Steam Version... maybe try those command line options here from the list of games in Library, launch options.

Try adding --force_OpenXR

Had to drop resolution to 75% to get anything near flyable.

Had to set the date in ME to at least 1947 before I saw light. June 1944 total blackout (as expected). Flying at night in a P-51 is a horror game

Don't sweat it. In my case, I can make it look good, and performs solid 45fps but, even the slightest amount of ghosting, wobble, or blur has become unacceptable to me. Knowing I can simply run my G2 at 60Hz and get relatively perfect performance, and crank the visuals and resolution. This doesn't just apply to OpenXR (or Composite), I had same experience back when I ran via SteamVR.

For the price and functionality, the NXT Gladiator is hard to beat for your flight stick. USB https://www.vkbcontrollers.com/collections/gladiator-nxt-joysticks Throttle, I still use a Logitech X-56. USB For head tracking, you might check out FaceTrack NoIR... assuming you already have a web cam. Welcome, and happy flying.

Sorry, that was meant for your other question regarding a link to the MS Store.

For the sake of realism... that orange/red fire should be a blue/greenish plasma ball.

I recently switched from the RX6900XT to the RTX 4080 (also threw in the 5800X3D since I was already running an AM4 board and the 5600X). As much as I liked the 6900XT, the RTX 4080 was a great improvement. Prior to, I could run at 80-85% in OpenXR Tools for WMR, CAS in OXR toolkit, mostly high in DCS options (no MSAA), terrain shadows usually off, clouds standard while running the G2 at 60Hz. 0 stutter. Now I run 100%, still CAS, same settings in DCS options except now I can pull off 2xMSAA, terrain shadows ON and high clouds with 0 stutter... again at 60Hz. With the added benefit of now being able to use fixed foveated rendering. Also worth mentioning: The particular RTX 4080 I have runs VERY cool, even with a slight OC. My previous ASRock 6900XT would easily hit close to 90* unless I removed the case side panel. It's also slightly smaller than most of the 4080 variants, and none of the RGB BS.

Dunno about birds but, at least fixed wing aircraft can "damage" power lines now. No damage take to the aircraft though.

Somewhat... It's also a result of gamers paying scalper prices for 2 years. The manufacturers responded by simply cutting out the middle man.

The Apache jelly rotor has been eliminated as well. Just tried the 1/3 frame rate setting with OXRToolkit Unlocked. PERFECT 30 fps, buttery smooth, no artifacting. I did see a little flying Syria in the A-10C II (just on the outer cockpit frames.

Wow! I decided to try going back to 90Hz, 100% res, and locked at 45 in OXRToolkit. I also have OXRTool for WRM set at Limit to 1/2 Frame Rate. Holy ***, it actually works now. still experimenting.

Just grabbed it. Noticed the Res slider is gone now. And what is this feature?

Still mapped and working on my end.

Just tried it. Looks fine.

He's referring to the Optimizer, not necessarily the tree mod alone.
