Thanks a lot for sharing your setting! Very interesting approach, I will definitly test this. Regards

Fix the issue of @durka-durka if you are that wise. Page 1.

Oh there are so many ways to FU the system, this can be achieved easily, even with a 4090.

Not sure if this helps or if you have set these things already but I have also followed the steps 1-11 below, and I can imagine that point 4 could be your issue: Rebar enabled XMP Memory Profile DCS Latest Open Beta version 32GB – 64GB Pagefile (Virtual Memory) Windows Game mode OFF Windows Game Bar OFF Windows registry Holographic PreallocateVirtualMonitors set to 0 Windows Holographic Shell Stopped ("Go to Computer Management → System Tools → Performance → Data Collector Sets → Event Trace Sessions. In this list, find HolographicShell, right click, and choose ‘Stop’.) Windows Power Management Ultimative Performance Windows Graphics performance for DCS set to High Performance. Variable refresh rate ON HAGS OFF The info comes from this threat:

Thank you for posting your settings. I can see that I am not too far off from you. As said I run the G2 on 60Hz now including FFR and its quite solid. Need to test further in MP and stressful missions. In case it fails I will sacrifice the ultra clouds I guess. Maybe there is even room to crank some things up, but this will be done later on after more flight hours. For now its a good starting point. Thanks to all who helped me getting some clarity in this setup-jungle!

Found it. this is what it looks like over Damascus with 60Hz. And here you can see the FFR at work, the outer, not seen part, is low resolution. There are some spikes here and there, but nowhere regular and every second.

What kind of tool you are using here for fps and frame time check? I could make a test too.

Fixed Foveated Rendering. You can enable it in the OpenXR Toolkit by mbuccia.

Hey man, I think you were right from the beginning. I was disabling DLSS, only DLAA ON and 60 Hz, downed the gamma and here you go. best quality, best clarity and from all the testing today (nearly 8 hours) by far less stutters. The 60 frames stay like a tank, no matter what comes or happens. I do use FFR on wide and performance as I cannot see any downside. Concerning the 60Hz, I notice the flickering only in the menu and the WMR Lighthouse Area, so absolutly unimportant. Ingame it is not noticeable for me and even a better experience because of the less or no stutters. Also 90° looks out to the window does not hit performance or smoothness, something which was a pain since years. I guess I keep this for now and will have a look how it behaves with longer missions. Thank you for your help and time.

ok... after some testing - some more data to share. With my CPU-GPU-RAM combination (see signature) and paired with a standard G2 I find OXRTK definitly better than QVFR. At a free flight in a Mi-8 over Damaskus (Damaskus Taxi mission) I achieved following results: QVFR: 65-70 fps at airflied, up to 85 fps in open area and 75 - 80 over rooftops in city. CPU frametime ~ 14,8ms and GPU ~ 14,0 ms. Settings with QVFR: DLSS + DLAA, Quality, PD1.0 OXRTK: 75-80 at airfield, 90 in open area and 85-90 fps over city. CPU frametime ~ 7ms and GPU ~ 8-10 ms. Settings with OXRTK: DLSS + DLAA, PD1.0, Quality, FFR wide Performance. I can see less stuttering and get a more smooth flight. GPU headroom is somewhere ~ 2 ms. Approximately same goes for the tests without DLSS @ 60Hz. Seems like a RTX 4090 is still bottlenecked by a 5800x3d, but its not much. As I am running mine at 80% powerlimit it might be this 3-4% loss to come equeal. Nevertheless there is no issue like that with DLSS. Even better now would be to set 60Hz but I can see the flickering... not sure if I can get used to...

thanks a lot!

Strange... I used OXRTK in my Radeon era and now two weeks with the 4090 without any CTD. To me stuttering is alot better with turbo mode enabled. But to be honest, I did not try running VR without the OXRTK, so its hard to argue on the point of stuttering. If tweaking the Toolkit fails I will try your way. Thanks!

Hi Diego999, some interesting approach where I have to dive in I guess. Did you manually modify the FFR area in OXRTK or edit the QVFR config file? I´ve done a couple of hours of testing today and got a little wiser by now, but if you can share your settings it would definitly be helpful, and not only for me I guess. The amount of "input" in this forum is so huge and depending on so many factors that someone easily can get lost.

Thank you and sorry for not mentioning my other specs, thought its enough to have them in my signature. Its a 5800x3d with 64GB DDR4 CL18 RAM, both not overclocked. DCS is running on a NVME. Very interesting, I will give the 60 Hz another try. Definitly would prefer a setting for all and deal with maybe not 100% squeezed out eye candy rather than the need to adjust setup every second flight. I The PD thing messed up my first test with 60Hz. As you say you do use the OXRTK only for Turbo Mode, is it correct that you don´t even use FFR? How comes that?

Good day Pilots, I´ve just upgraded from an RX 6900XT to a RTX 4090 and get a little lost in which way to go with my settings. I was tinkering with Quad View previously on AMD with good results but since the change to NVIDIA there are much more factors available now, like DLSS and DLAA and FFR via OXRTK. As I have missed the wave with DLSS & CO, I would really appreciate if someone could post a screen of the DCS, NVIDIA and/or OXRTK settings to have a good starting point. I have tried 60Hz mode but got some stuttering and can see some flickering in bright scenes, but I guess it might have been caused by some other setting mistakes. I fly 90% of the time rotor wings. Main questions: Go for 45fps + Repo, 60 Hz Mode or 90fps using some new technique (DLSS etc.)? Go for Quad View again or stay with OXRTK only? Upscaling? Yes / No / Which one? Sharpening - Which one? Antialising technique - Which one? PD adjustment in combination with FFR or QVFR? Heard that modifying the Quad View allows high center PD. Anyone tried this? DCS Settings which shall be definitly avoided in VR? I strangly got some heavy increase in brightness and needed to go to gamma correctiion 1,0 to have somewhat ok visibility. Help ! Thanks in advance, Uzi

+1 its already there and working - please implement it. PLUS: it is one of the few techniques for AMD Radeon users to improve VR experience.

I have additionally switched the turbo mode from QVFR to the toolkit version (as mbuccia explained in some other post) in order to see CPU and GPU traffic while tweaking the graphics setting. There is still some fine-tuning needed but overall the performance boost and clarity is simply great.

Just wanted to say thank you to @mbucchia ! Really, thank you so much! For the last two weeks I was looking for a RTX 4090 deal as I could not stand any longer this weird AMD VR implementation. Reading about FFR and other nice things like MR and others but never able to use it, brought me on the edge of throwing out my only 2 years old PC and start off new. But lucky as I am, prices are incrasing again here in old europe and I struggle to justify another invest like a AM5 / 4090 combo. Anyway, long story short - to my surprise I today learnd that QVFR is also working for standard Reverb G2 and in the opposite of FFR from the toolkit IT ALSO WORKS FOR US LOST RADEON USERS!!! And it is working so great, that for the first time I can disable upscaling and not only this, I currently fly the "Schoolbus" (Mi-8) with PD 1.3 and TAA. Adding some CAS and sharpening over the Toolkit and voilà, by far the best IQ and experience I ever had in DCS. There is some slight ghosting but this I will accept easily in case I cannot sort out. In this case I will invest in a 5800X3D upgrade instead of an RTX 4090, or at least wait for the rumored 4080 Super. Mr. @mbucchia, thanks a lot!

Hi All, running on 5800X and 6900XT. I can recommend 100% in open XR, MR off, Radeon Chill 45/45 min/max. I´ve just done some Chopper-SAR on the server, absoltly no jittering and stable 45 fps even with other players arround. Here are my current ingame settings. Sorry for german language but i guess you know what it is (hoch=high, mittel=medium, niedrig=low) I first had 115% and FSR 90%, then i found out that 100% + MSAA 2x gives me better results. I went into MP server and had stutters when looking 9 and 3 oclock so i discable the MSAA and now even in MP everything is smooth. There is also hardly no difference between MSAA 2x and none. Need to try if this setup can also handle ultra clouds, but so far I am really happy with this now. Hope this helps. UZI

Hey TED, running a 5800X and a 6900XT and have used your setup within the last 2 hours. I can confirm that this is the game-changer I was waiting for. I do fly helicopters only and get arround 60-65 fps over lager villages and cities, 70-75 fps outside settlements at caucasus, however, I found out that be using the Radeon Chill, both set to 45 fps, is smoothing even the micro slight stutters when looking 90 degree left or right over settlements. To me this is the best setup so far. Not sure how Radeon Chill is working out for fixed wing. If you have further findings please share. UZI

I had exactly the same problem. During the playthrough of the oilfield campaign the bug was introduced and made it impossible to go further. Sometimes i managed by luck to get a mission forward in case there was only 1 external cargo but then the mission with 4 external cargos came and at least there it gets just a joke. 4,5 tons are lifted without any change in collective and swinging like you have loaded a popcorn on the rope. The only possible way to get forward was to change to standalone, non-steam version and to roll back to an earlier version without the bug introduced in stable version 2.5.6.55960, via the DCS launcher mod by Skate Zilla. But in this case you also do not benefit of all the updates made in meantime. As long as we still struggle with this annoying issue I cannot recommend anyone to buy civil MI-8 modules as it is more or less impossible to play through and people should not be forced to deal with all this issues that long.

Gentlemen, This is really a no go as many paid campaigns are partly impossible to play through. We are waiting since DEC 2020 - We need a fix and we need it fast!
