Yes but it just made the image darker not better. It became better with some updates and new firmware. But it is still not up to the quality of the original crystal.

Carrier IFLOLS overbright…..and overlay query
TimSell75 replied to markturner1960's topic in Bugs and Problems
Crystal Super User here. Same problem. The IFLOLS is just a big ball of glowing green with no use in VR. -
Anybody elso noticed that there is kind of a ghosting effect with DLSS at the light wands and release bars that are being held by the deck crew? Without DLSS everything looks fine.

Will this setting include digital gauges like the engine gauges of the F-18 too? I found these to affected the most by ghosting with DLSS.

Pimax Crystal Super - Mura and Tiger Stripes

That is not possible in the Super unfortunately, it is a hard coded in the hardware. It can only be changed by Pimax with Firmware Updates. -
Pimax Crystal Super - Mura and Tiger Stripes
TimSell75 replied to TimSell75's topic in Virtual Reality
So I have been in contact with Pimax support the last days. First I must say, that the response times were really good. Pimax improved a lot in this regard! About the Mura: the answer was that a certain amount of Mura will always be present with the Super and that my unit was tested and up to their current acceptance levels. So I can keep it, send it back, or have it replaced. But with the given answer it does not sound as if a replacement unit would be an improvement or could even be worse. Still have 5 days to make up my mind… Overblooming: one cause can be remaining hidden files of a previous Pimax Play installation from a OG Crystal, even if you do a reinstall. A new Pimax play version that I got from support offers a cleaning option before installation. That made it a bit better, but in DCS it is still eye hurting bright and washed out colors. I hope they will further work on the color profiles, especially tuning down the whites in DCS. In Il2 I have accaptable colors now, but still would consider der OG Crystal to be a good notch better regarding contrast, colors and whites. -

It seems to be specially related to DCS. IL2 in my opinion is ok regarding colors and brightness if you switch of HDR in the settings. -
Pimax Crystal Super - Mura and Tiger Stripes
TimSell75 replied to TimSell75's topic in Virtual Reality
Just got a new version of Pimax Play from Pimax customer support. It gave the option to erase all hidden previous files and setting of Pimax Play before installation. It made DCS playable but the whites are still way too bright. Almost hurting the eyes. And the colors overall look too bright and kind of washed out. In comparison, the OG crystal still has the far superior image in DCS. -

Yes I did, every possible combination. But the image just became darker or brighter as a whole. The fact that the horizon „eats up“ almost the entire image does not change, it just changes from bright white to a greyish version of white. -

May I ask, did you have a crystal OG or light installed on this PC previously? Because this might be in relation to bad colors and blooming when you install a super afterwards. -

Honestly if it was just the Mura, I would keep it. But these moving stripes and the overblooming ist simply not ignorable. The overblooming even makes DCS just unplayable as you can’t see any details in distance anymore. -

No, RTX 4090. I have seen at least three other Super owners that reported the same issue in YouTube comments. So I am not the only one affected. -
Pimax Crystal Super - Mura and Tiger Stripes
TimSell75 replied to TimSell75's topic in Virtual Reality
I played around with it the whole day yesterday. The biggest problem is not even the Mura and stripes, but that the headset is way too bright, or better to say everything that is white in game is overblooming everything around it. In DCS or IL2 for example it is unusable in the current state, when you look at the horizon, everything you see is just white. Lowering the headset brightness or Gamma in Game does not help, you just see a darkened version of white but not more details. At least this seems to be adressed already in their current issues notes and should become better with a firmware update. I am just wondering why none of the testers has brought this up if it is a general software issue? I contacted Pimax service already to see what I can do. According to their policy claims, the trial period should be frozen as soon as the user brings up an issue. For now, at least in flightsims, my device is not usable sadly -
Got mine and (apart from Mura and Tiger Stripes) this: For some users, in some games, colors are overblown (In progress) is the biggest Issue in DCS or IL2. Everything in touch with a white area becomes completely overblown. Currently (at least with my Super), DCS is not playable. Oftentimes it is like flying through a snowstrom, barely able to see more than half a mile until everything becomes just white. Kola map in winter for example is just a white Desert with the Super
