  1. Hey all, I just started playing DCS a week ago on my new rig. GeForce 4090, AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, 64 GB RAM DDR5 6600, 4 TB SSD, 1000 W power. I have a Quest 3 VR headset that started out great. DId some tweaking based on reading threads here, Reddit, and YouTube, and something started causing my headset to "shake" when I'm playing. It's almost like the headset is loose and vibrating with any head movement. It is very disorienting. Using the DCS MT version with OpenXR Toolkit turbo mode, Quest Link, resolution set to the highest setting with 72Hz. Also using the Oculus Tray Tool. I can't post a screenshot of my in-game settings at the moment, but here are the basics: Res 1920 x 1080, res of cockpit displays 1024, MSAA, 4x, upscaling off, sharpening .80, textures medium, terrain textures high, shadows low, clutter/grass 400, forest 70%, details .65/.65, gamma 2.0, lod switch 1.5, VR PD is 1.2. The visuals are great, and I'm getting the same stutter at a PD of 1.2 or 1.8. I also reduced a lot of settings and still am getting the stutter with much lower resolution. So I either have the game looking incredibly detailed with stutter or looking blurry with stutter. In game frame rates are a solid 72 fps across the board with very little bumps in the line. Using a hard-wire to the PC with the Q3 using a link cable USB-C. Any thoughts here?
  2. Good day all, After doing a LOT of research on the various options for stick, rudder, throttle, etc., I am looking to purchase the following setup in the next 2-3 months. I am planning on flying the F-14B the great majority of the time, but also diving into warbirds (P-47), and quite possibly the F-4 Phantom. For any experienced with the F-14B, would any of the following cause issues in terms of availability of hat switches/buttons to bind, rudder durability and control (F-14B uses a lot of rudder), and stick feel? Seat: SimFab modular for DCS with the lower center-stick option Stick: Virpil VPC VFX Grip with extension and Mongoose T-50 base Throttle: WinWIng Orion18 Rudder: Thrustmaster TPR (also considered the WinWing Orion) I am going to utilize this setup with VR (Quest 3), so not looking at getting any additional panels or MFDs at this time. Eventually I may use this setup for MSFS as well, but for now, DCS only. I have MSFS on XBox Series X, so I can play that from time to time with my kids using my cheap HOTAS gear. I looked at the NLR Boeing Military seat; however, it seems having the flight stick extension requires a lot of modifications, and some say the seat isn't very comfortable. Seems like the SimFab is alright in terms of comfort, plus it allows to utilize the extension. I'd really like to add the extension to create more realism for how the F-14B stick is mounted, as well as most warbirds. I'd love some feedback for this gear. Thank you in advance!
