Check your Max FPS in DCS

Now that you mention it... I already had 3.7.2. Now I checked, it was 3.7.0 again Will a patch put it back?

The only advantage in the old system was when people played at low resolution. Let them. They can play at 800x600 if they're happy with it...

Eye Tracking wird von der Light nicht unterstützt. Daher gibt's auch nur Fixed FR, kein Dynamic FR. Das bedeutet, dass nur ein feststehender Bereich mit höherer Auflösung gerendert wird. Wenn du also etwas scharf sehen willst, musst du den Kopf dahin drehen. Du kannst mit dem Inside Out Tracking gut klar kommen, musst aber auf Helligkeit und Kontrast in deiner Umgebung achten. Lighthouse ist aber dennoch das bessere Tracking.

Anstelle von SPH +1.50 habe ich also SPH +2.5 bestellt, das hat funktioniert.

I could imagine that your layers are no longer being called up in the correct order. This leads to problems. Download this tool and check which layers display ‘Fix It!’. https://github.com/fredemmott/OpenXR-API-Layers-GUI

If it is only supposed to display something, why is it a switch?

You have to enable "Use Quad View", otherwise it will not work. Default is OFF

Thank you for the clarification. Strangely enough, the (undocumented) ‘Track the eye position’ button behaves differently. If I switch it off, the eye tracking on my Pimax still works...

I also wonder what the purpose of the button is. Having several on/off buttons for one and the same thing makes no sense to me.

We created a small benchmark track for our VR workshop at the Open Flight School. We simply run it through and measure with CapFrame. This allows us to see exactly where the bottleneck is and what happens when we change the settings.

I wanted to stay with Mbuccia Quad View / TallyMouse Companion because there are no settings for focus size and foveate / peripheral resolution in DCS. Now that I have switched on QV and eye tracking in DCS, things are working better again. Unfortunately, not quite like before. I'll keep testing...

It's Single Player on Caucasus with a TF-51, a short go around as a track file (our benchmark, so both screen shots show the same track). But it's even worse on Marian Island.

First impression: My VR performance is broken. Screens after / before DCS Single Player Caucasus AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D GeForce RTX 4090 64 GB RAM

With a lot of respect for your work. I don't understand how this can be, since the DLL is in a directory that is only used for QVFR? C:\Program Files\OpenXR-Quad-Views-Foveated\XR_APILAYER_MBUCCHIA_quad_views_foveated.dll

Tested, works

Crystal / 4090 / QVFR / 72Hz / Stable 72 FPS with high settings. Yes, Quad view simply is mandatory. Without this, the resolution would have to be lowered considerably to achieve a good FPS. In my opinion, QVFR + Aero or Crystal are currently the best setups for playing DCS with the best quality in VR. What really scares me is that such a bug would certainly have been noticed... It really seems that ED does not test with such a setup. Picture: Open Flight School VR-Workshop Benchmark

You can tell from the date alone that your post wasn't meant seriously. Now it's the sale and I, along with several hundred STEAM customers, would be delighted to receive an offer.

Will the Launcher support the Steam Version?

Understood. However, it is somewhat misleading that the UFC button still shows the options for changing.

I've seen the Heatblur video where the DCS Web Viewer is integrated into the Kneeboard How about editing a running mission via kneeboard in VR? With DCS Olympus you can edit a running mission https://github.com/Pax1601/DCSOlympus With OpenKneeboard you can integrate a browser window as a kneeboard page (window capture) and control it via the tablet https://openkneeboard.com/features/window-capture.html Would a combination of both be possible?

After the patch yesterday I have just tested whether the laser code can be changed in flight: It can be changed, the SMS shows the changed codes. However, the GBU no longer finds the laser beam and the bomb misses. Can anyone confirm this? And... is this also "realistic"?

Du hast dich leider nicht sehr gut über unsere Flugschule informiert, daher gebe ich dir mal ein paar Informationen. Wir haben uns für einen Tutor-geführten Unterricht entschieden, weil dieser es im Gegensatz zum Handbuch lesen und Videos schauen den Schülern erlaubt, ihre persönlichen Fragen zu stellen und ihre Probleme zu lösen. Nebenbei entstehen viele Gemeinschaften und oft Freundschaften. Der Unterricht wird von erfahrenen Tutoren geleitet und besteht aus einem fundiertem theoretischen Teil in Kombination mit einem Praxisteil. Die Gruppen bestehen aus 4-6 Schülern. Für die Theorie haben wir weit über hundert Schulungsunterlagen erstellt, die durch Kniebretter ergänzt werden. Wir bieten Kurse für die A-10 und die F-18 (F-16 in Vorbereitung) an, wobei je Muster etwa 40 Abende zu je 2,5 Stunden Unterricht zusammen kommen. Die Kursbestandteile sind Basis, Navigation, Waffenbasis, Waffenaufbau und teilweise fortgeschrittene SOPs. Alle Kursabschnitte werden mit Prüfungen abgeschlossen. Wir betreiben die OFS nun schon eine Weile und in den letzen fast drei Jahren Aufbau haben über 20 Tutoren 200 Flugschülern in 600 Unterrichtsabenden das Fliegen und den Umgang mit den Modulen beigebracht. Alle Tutoren arbeiten ehrenamtlich, der Unterricht ist kostenlos. Leider begegnen uns hin und wieder Menschen, die das nicht wertschätzen. Manchmal sind sie sogar respektlos dabei und das, ohne dass sie sich im Geringsten informiert haben. Aber solche Menschen wie du sind Gott sei Dank die Ausnahme.

Nice review, very similar to my experience. I use 72 Hz and therefore have a bit more eye candy, but I know that others have a problem with it and prefer to set it to 90 Hz. I have high settings and 72 FPS throughout. @BIGNEWY I use a small mod to reduce the weight, maybe that's interesting for you too: My rig: Windows 10, NVIDIA MSI RTX 4090, AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D 8-Core Processor, 3401 MHz, 64GB DDR @3200, ASrock X570 Pro4

It's not just the FOV (which will hopefully soon be significantly larger thanks to the new lenses, ~120°-125°). The clarity and the performance gain through eye tracking in combination with Quad Views are what make the difference. Only the Crystal and the Aero (discontinued) have that. Comfort is of course an issue, but this is very individual. For some (like me) the Crystal fits perfectly, others say they can't wear them at all. The key is to try them out.
