Yes, I sort of stumbled upon that by accident. Interestingly VR necksafer is now working again, previously I had to disable it because the hanger that loads with the main menu was upside down. Not sure if that is related to the change, but good to get Necksafer back again, makes looking at the side panels in the cockpit so much easier.

Guys, I've read that few people are having a problem with the in game toolkit not appearing. I'm running the stable version and using the MT shortcut for DCS. I also use Open Composite. Open up Open composite. Click on configure. You should see your DCS icon in there, probably sitting under Open Composite. Right click on the icon and select 'Use Default Runtime' That's it. You should now be able to use the tool in game to tweak settings again. Cheers Paul

Guys, I've had DCS installed for may years but have never really had the time delve into the depths of learning an aircraft in detail. Initial forays into VR were less than satisfying. Fast forward a couple of years and I now have a Reverb G2 and a newly purchased RTX 4090, then multithreading came along plus XR Composite. here we go... I've been tweaking again. Almost a fulltime hobby when it comes to VR settings. Had a few issues with the multithreading exe. This is what I discovered after much tweaking and fiddling. Set the WMR pixel density setting to 150% Set the open XR settings to 100% no sharpening, sharpening set to CAS. Motion reprojection set to on and capped at 45 FPS in the in game open XR menu Open Composite off Native XR default line added to the DCS.exe MT shortcut. DCS settings in game pretty much as per the gamersbynight web page. I assumed that setting the pixel density to 150% would kill the frame rate. Nope, not a bit. No change at all . My processor is an i7-10700k @ 3.80GHz Next problem was XR Neck safer, could not get it to work. Steps I took. Use Native OpenXR. Reactivate XRNS Open XR API layer in the XRNS program ( this was deactivated to avoid the upside-down VR menus, but it looks like that is resolved and or fixed by using native OpenXR). Start XRNS before WMR (not sure if this important or not, still need to try the alternatives) Into WMR and hit the dcds.exe mt shortcut. 46 FPS all day long in the free flight missions, even flying low over the Marianas Islands. the gamechanger for me was the 150% setting in WMR. Everything in the cockpit is now laser sharp and crystal clear. Right, I'm off to kick the tyres and light the fires. Cheers Paul

I noted a massive improvement in the quality of the clouds when flying the f-16 over the Caucasus after the latest update to 2.8. massive! More immersive than ever Cheers Paul

This has been a complete game changer for me. A few niggles to start with but a fresh install cured those problems. The difference has been jaw dropping. I have a win 10 machine with an i7-10700k processor running at 3.8Ghz, 32GB of Ram and an RTX3080 graphics card. Reverb G2. The Marianas was a no go for me as the frame rate dropped too much, other areas were ok, but Syria was also challenging and that was running at 0.7 render scale with MR on and moderate settings in the graphics. Now I'm getting between 30 and 45 FPS with most settings on high and 100% render in OXRTK with NIS upscaling and MR running by default. Which. if I understand all this wizardry correctly, is an in-headset equivalent of 60-90 in the headset... Unbelievable difference. Kudos to all involved. Cheers Paul
