Will try that. What I'm interested in is QVFR's ability to supersample only the central region.

Thank you. I looked through the wiki to learn about the settings and didn't see that part. Will try again tonight.

I'm seeing the same. I guess my particular hardware combination (not as good as yours, I have to say) doesn't benefit from the new graphic options. Tried QVFR last night and got noticeable worse performance than fixed foveated with OpenXR Toolkit, althought it seemed with less terrain stuttering. Couldn't benchmark, because for some weird reason when using QVFR, both Oculus Tray Tool and OpenXR Toolkit were reporting absurd frametimes. Strange. i5 10400, 3060ti, 64GB RAM, Quest 2.

I stand corrected. Thank you.

This is my understanding too. Frame generation is a DLSS 3 feature. DCS is using DLSS 2.

This. 14th is just a "refreshed" 13th with marginal improvements and higher price. Avoid for now.

Do you play in VR? I do. With a worse PC than his.

That rig is very solid for VR with a Quest 3. Be prepared to spend a month changing settings tho.

Don't forget there are fantastic mods, totally free. A-4 Skyhawk and OV-10 Bronco to name a few.

You gain points, ranks, awards and medals for your profile. Killing an ally only means you lose all combat points for that particular mission. Nothing else. You can see your stats in the "Logbook" option in DCS main menu.

Well, going by the "multirole" title, I'd choose the Hornet. F-15C is an exclusive AA platform. You can't carry any air to ground ordnance (only amraams, sparrows and sidewinders) and the Mirage doesn't have any guided AG weapon. You have to rely on just rockets and dumb bombs. EDIT: you have laser guided bombs but you can't self lase. For me the Mirage 2000 is the perfect blend of modern stuff without being too modern, if you catch my drift. You have decent radar and missiles, but still no Fox 3s and no computers with wings like later planes as the Hornet, Viper or Mudhen. This is, of course, personal preference. You should go for what you like. So your options for true "multirole" here are, in my opinion: F-18 F-16 F-15E F-14? If you love naval aviation it's a fantastic module, but you have to live with Jester and that can be frustrating sometimes. And there's the JF-17, but I know nothing about that module.

As far as I know, IFF functionality not simulated within DCS except for the most basic stuff. So there's nothing Viggen devs can do when the game itself does not support it.

This. Tried on FS and noticed a lot of artifacts while the performance gains were minimal. Let's wait and see but as far as I've seen, it might help a bit but it won't be the holy grail some people are expecting.

It looks like a decent upgrade from the Quest 2. Nothing more, nothing less. With a $499 price tag you can't go nuts with the specs. It's just an entry level headset.

Not at all. It only matters for standalone use when not connected to your PC.

It has, on paper, more resolution and better lenses. But nobody knows yet.

Same error here. It solved when I restarted.

Maybe because your rig is GPU bound? How are your settings? A 3070 is kinda poor for VR right now (I have a 3060ti and I have to cut most of the settings to have a smooth experience). Are you using a Quest 2? Instead of 90/45 fps, try 72/36, that way it's easier for your GPU to mantain 72 almost all the time.

You will be fine bro. DCS is mostly smooth movements and rarely flashy, two of the things that can trigger an episode. Besides, yout brain is already trained in VR. That's important. I almost puked the first time I played DCS, I still do if I try racing sims. If you're used to both, I don't think VR is going to bring any problems. Just limit to short sessions at first until you gain confidence.

Yes definitely DCS looks better in a 2D monitor (unless you're using an expensive headset). What VR brings to the table is immersion: you're sitting inside the plane, and the feeling is amazing. But at the end of the day it's your game and you play it however you prefer. Nothing wrong with that. Maybe future VR headsets will solve most problems current ones have, heavy tweaking being one of them.

The Mirage F1 is not comparable to the Viper or the Strike Eagle. It's a 70's interceptor, designed to go straight and fast. Not a dogfighter but it can hold its ground against contemporaries as long as you remain fast. Relative to Fox 2 missiles: Magic 2 and AIM-9JULI are good, Magic 1 and the other Sidewinders range from mediocre to useless. Fox 1 missiles: 530F is somewhat decent, the others are pretty much dead weight (a lot of weight). The Mirage 2000 is a capable dogfighter, can maneuver much better and has as great radar and missiles. Being fbw, you can fly it in a careless way without worrying about stalling the engine or frying the avionics. You don't have that luxury in the F1.

Depends on the module really. In my country $80 is a lot. But I don't complain when it comes to, for example, the Hornet or the Viper (I own both actually). But those are complex machines with in-depth modeled systems and a lot of weapons. So there is much to learn and have fun with. On the other hand, $60 for the MB-339, an airplane that had no radar, no HUD, no navigation, no complex systems and with its whole arsenal consisting in a few bombs and rockets? Way too expensive.

This. Syria map eats 25gb with you alone on the map. It goes downhill from there.

It does with a good one. I use a Kiwi cable. Never goes below 90% battery while playing.

Sounds like a cable issue. Had the same problem, but more severe (connection/disconnection ever 10 seconds or so). It went away once I got a better cable.
