If you're not going to participate in a constructive way, kindly go be wrong somewhere else. Thanks.

VR will always be inferior to a 2D monitor: you're exchanging visual quality for immersion. Is that trade worth it? Only you can answer that question. With that said, Quest 2 is an older headset now, and it's clearly falling behing newer ones. It was serviceable for almost 2 years for me, but the moment I tried pancake lenses I knew I couldn't go back (using a Quest 3 now). Doesn't matter how much you pump your settings, the physical resolution of the headset will always limit your visuals. In my case, the Quest 3 is better than the Quest 2, but not by an amazing margin. I'm sure high end headsets must provide amazing quality, but you need an equally high end pc to extract the performance. What are your specs?

V76 by any chance? Yes it broke for me too. A quick search will reveal this is a common occurrence. What's worked for me was to reinstall the Meta desktop app. No problems since.

ED seem to be trying to fullfill some checklist, releasing half-baked features with barebones functionality only so they can say "hey, we gave you what you wanted". Quick Action Generator: slow, cumbersome, for some weird reason it loads the terrain first (?) before giving you the option to select another one. DTC: primitive and barely functional. Mission Save: uselees for anything more complicated than you alone on the map bombing some static units. Most recent patch: +20 C° CPU temperature for AMD users somehow. The now unified DCS version is still Open Beta, they just changed the name.

Great mod! I've always wanted to fly these planes (MiG-25 and MiG-31) and now I finally can. Thank you.

Looks nice. Maybe in 3-4 years when it's worth it. No more preorders for me.

Great work!

Please help me understand CPU performance

Your CPU will boost its clock when it needs to. You don't need to overclock or do anything, your 14700k is great for DCS. -

This is good advice. -
OpenXR Toolkit, Meta Quest 3, and DCS
diego999 replied to Hootman9104's topic in Utility/Program Mods for DCS World
When did you try? I tested IL-2 last week with OpenComposite (I was trying to bypass the nefarious SteamVR) and OpenXR Toolkit kicked in on its own when the game opened. It was a pleasant surprise. -
OpenXR Toolkit, Meta Quest 3, and DCS
diego999 replied to Hootman9104's topic in Utility/Program Mods for DCS World
I still use OpenXR Toolkit, pity it's not supported anymore by its creator (not critisizing mbucchia here, he's done a lot for VR in DCS). Quad Views Foveated is an alternative tool made by the same author, but in my case I get worse performance so I don't use it. Turbo Mode eliminates ground stuttering almost completely, and the overlay provides in-game CPU and GPU frametimes. Those two settings I cannot live without. Post proccesing to simulate sunglasses it also comes in handy, as half the modules lack the feature. -
Not at all. I've been using Quest Link for 3 years. I've only had problems when my cable died. VD is a good option, but I tried it and never could match the visual clarity of the cable link. Besides, ASW is far superior to what VD has. I'd say try both and see which one offers better results.

Security Professional. Using Norton. It's just a false positive, like every other time this has already happened. Wait two weeks until your particular AV whitelists the file if you don't want to exclude DCS folders.

Aside from specs/price discussion, I think this is a step in the right direction. VR won't be "truly" immersive as long as you have to endure a giant brick glued to your forehead for several hours. Rather than crazy resolution or bigger FOV, I'm more interested in a smaller/lighter headset down the road.
