What does the scaling actually do?

@oboe All that you are saying is correct, but due to the fresnel lenses, the option to have DFR might be pretty pointless.

Depending on which preset you are using (i.e. Ultra, Godlike etc), of course VD is supersampling. As long as you know it, you can then adjust the respective settings in QV.

OXRTK does not need to be started up. It is active in the background unless you actively disable it. You might actually try to disable it via the respective checkmark as suggested above in order to check if it is the source of your problem. If you are in fact using Virtual Desktop, then Oculus Tray Tool has absolutely zero effect on your PCVR experience. I would suggest to also leave that alone. Have you used QuadViews Foveated Rendering? In that case you now also need to activate that in the DCS VR settings.

@Vox Those notes/warnings/cautions do not imply that one is not supposed to flare. The NATOPS also states a maximum landing weight of 39000lbs for a FLARED landing as opposed to the 34000lbs limit one has for landings/traps on the boat.

@hannibal PM sent.

@hannibal Yeah I‘m also running the QPro with a 4090… I still run into ASW occasionally, but definitely less so with QV enabled.

OpenXR toolkit has a build-in check box to disable it if you want to check if it‘s interfering with something. So no need to uninstall right away. What „built-in support for foveated rendering“? DCS now has a checkbox (or toggle switch in the launcher) to activate/deactivate QuadViews. You still need to have QuadViews installed as before if you want to make use of it. It is just a convenient feature now for testing or quickly turning it on/off to your preference for different modules. So…if you had used QV before and now you uninstalled it, OFC you have worse performance. Also check out this VR subforum where you might find better advice then whereever you were told to uninstall OXRTK and QV.

No. All I‘m using it for occasionally, is to see FPS. As it has bern pointed out already, this us just a configuration app. Now you might ask, why it lets you configure QuadViews then, if you don‘t have it? Because it probably doesn‘t check for it. It just creates a settings file at the default place where QV is (or in your case: „would be“) looking for it. Also even though QV is very subtle, it is still noticable and you should be realizing it, when it‘s active. You should also notice a performance uplift.

Come on guys...DCS is taxing enough on the hardware already, if they would actually render the first person cockpit of every player on the ext. camera as well, I don´t even want to know what impact that would have.

@PLUTON As far as I know, QVFR puts some more stress on the CPU and yours might simply not be powerful enough for you to benefit from QVFR.

No. Yes. After you started QuestLink, on that bar at the bottom, click on the monitor symbol and your desktop appears. I don‘t know how that behaves without an actual monitor though.

I always kept my QPro connected simply to keep it charged during longer sessions. I did not see any detrimental effects and I also don‘t see how it would have since you can not be connected via QuestLink and VD at the same time.

@Dang3r Man kann bei Drittanbietern für fast alle gängigen VR-Brillen entsprechende Gläser mit individuell gefertigter Sehstärke bestellen die einfach in die VR-Brille „eingeklickt“ werden.

Why do you use SteamVR in the first place instead of just QuestLink? Not that this would be much easier/faster, but I think might be a tad better with regards to performance. Or use VirtualDesktop if you insist on wireless streaming. Other than that, you can disable the DCS launcher in the DCS settings. This would then safe you one step.

As of yesterdays update, you will have to activate QuadViews (and Eye-Tracking if your headset supports it) in the DCS VR options. If you´ve done that, QuadViews should already work for you. If you want to do some custom tweaking to how QuadViews behaves, you can manipulate the respective settings file or use a tool called "QuadViewsCompanion" which is a bit more convinient.

Yes, you are right, I have to revise my own answer from yesterday. I was wrong, simply because at that time I was not aware, that the update had dropped and the functionality has now changed.

You still need the quadviews software to make it work. It‘s not difficult really. As far as I know, the checkmark in DCS is just an indicator if it works. You can set it up with your G2 but it would only work in fixed mode obviously. EDIT: Corrected due to changed functionality in latest update.

I can‘t explain it from a truly technical perspective… I used MSAA x4 for quite a while because when DLAA came out initially for DCS, it had some really bad smearing effect on moving objects. This is now less pronounced and DLAA provides a better quality image overall. Smoother edges and no shimmering on clouds for example. This is all highly subjective, I guess. Nothing wrong really with sticking to MSAA.

Wenn das ein neuer PC mit neuem Windows ist, dann vergibt der Deinen USB Devices (Joystick, Throttle etc…) eine ID. Die stimmt jetzt nicht mehr mit der überein die in Deiner controls.ini (?) hinterlegt ist. Bin mir bei dem Dateinamen jetzt nicht ganz sicher…jedenfalls die Datei, die Du ja offensichtlich gespeichert hast. Das müsste sich aber beheben lassen, da bin ich jetzt aber etwas überfragt. Vmtl manuel in der fraglichen Datei die neue von Win vergebene ID eintragen.

@QuiGon Ich denke mal, das weiss ex81 schon. Aber dieser zoom stoppt ja irgendwann und man kann nicht mehr näher dran.

Nutz doch die freie Sicht an dem Objekt. Also beispielsweise mit F2 das fragliche Flugzeug auswählen oder mit F9 ein Schiff etc… Dann RStrg + F2. Damit kannst Du dann wie im Egoshooter mit WASD Deine Position ändern. Mit RStrg + Num* ode Num/ kannst Du auch noch den Field of view ändern. So kann man sehr coole Perspektiven a la GoPro erzeugen, also z.B. Kamera über der Schulter des Piloten o.Ä…. Ich spiel damit momentan auch viel rum weil ich mich erstmal mit einem kleinen Video versuche. Hier nochmal ein ganz hilfreiches Reference Sheet. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3320507/

No worries mate...we´va ll been there...

The paddle deactivates NWS. To activate NWS you need to press the NWS button. Are you sure, you didn‘t accidentially mix that up?

Sorry, didn‘t want to derail your thread. I just found that part a bit misleading. And yes, you are right, the fact that one needs the controller for that is a bit annoying. Would be even better, if QuestLink was just defaulting to the desktop right away.
