Thanks Calvin, this fixed my 90hz upscale bug.

Bad tracking / floating out of cockpit, only in DCS: Crystal Light
Blackhawk163 replied to Keith Briscoe's topic in Pimax
I have this error, primarily with the F14 and the F4. When it happens its quite jarring, and nauseating to me when it jitters uncontrollably. I'm hoping the new pimax drivers and firmware fix this, as it happens to me in BMS as well. -
Have you tried uninstalling and deleting Pimax play, openxr toolkit quadviews companion etc? And when I write delete, I mean everything under your users appdata folder that pertains to Pimax and the other tools? I had an issue within DCS (and strangely only DCS) where the frames would report exactly half the refresh rate no matter what I had clicked. It also started to degrade within DCS where there were these weird artifacts. Almost as if the screens had become cracked (shattered glass affect) and it would flicker, especially on some frames drops. I was about to write a support ticket until I decided to delete it all. So far it’s fixed and I’m able to get more than 75fps+ without dropping past .8 pixel density with the Apache, and a solid 90 (I capped it at that) for a mission I’m working on in the Persian gulf with the a10II.

What was the issue causing it and the fix? I've lowered it to the lowest resolution because unless I'm mistaken the GPU has to now render three images.

Hey I had the same issue with my crystal light. Have you tried changing the setting on where it’s rendered? if I were by my computer I would snap a pic and show you. But I believe it’s in the Special tab->F4 and then look for the jester wheel information. You can also change the size of it. Once you set it you can forget it.

Pimax Play SW 1.33.01.01 Quadviews Issues and DFR
Blackhawk163 replied to Justin1Ntime's topic in Pimax
For those that start DCS off axis, why not just map the vr center to a button? I have mine on set to tab. Solves that issue without having to take the hmd off. -
For the DCS settings why not drop the resolution to the lowest since that’s only for the monitor, unless you’re recording then never mind.

Update on the 4080 users front. I'm still using the settings in DCS as outlined in my previous post but have made some adjustments on the Pimax play settings. First I'll preface this by saying that 60fps is plenty smooth for me, and it may not be the case for others, I just wanted to keep as much visual fidelity as I can. I've bumped up the Render quality from .8 back to 1 enabled Pimax openxr quad and pimax central priority rendering (the verbiage has changed since the new update) preference is still quality Smart smooth on lock half on hidden area mask on Vive compat on DLSS Tweaks setting F I took the a10IIc instant mission free flight at the caucuses, which is filled with heavy cloud cover, and have a locked 60fps Free flight in the Persian gulf map @ 200 AGL a10II/f18 16 and 15 and 14 all through the city centers locked 60 Sinai Israel free flight f14a mission worse offender as dips went into 35fps at times. free flight on f15 dips into the mid to low 50`s both are at 280 agl on the free flight mission as well. The 18 on the map dips to 58 fps but, rarely on its specific area in the free flight mission (I chose the first CAP flight in the menu) and again flying at about 300 agl This is all with about 15 minutes of testing as I'm quite busy today, and with the exception of the a10, and other than landings/mission specific parameters, I don't think most will be flying that low to begin with. I'm sure lowering the resolution to about .85-88 might help stabilize some of the problem areas while still appearing very sharp. something to test later.

thanks for the heads up @Rudel_chw

I was going to create a thread pretty much saying the same thing Puffin. @baltic_dragon, I absolutely love the way this was setup and presented. So much so that I am disappointed that there aren't any other campaigns that cover all the other aircraft like this one does for the A10II. Are we ever getting a part II?

I’m on the 4080 super. I can tell you what I use off the top of my head with regards to DCS and Pimax play. My hardware is in the signature below, so I won’t type that out. in Pimax play I have rendering set to .8 120hz refresh, no FFR/quadviews enabled, smart smoothing is enabled. for DCS I followed https://www.gamersbynight.com/dcs-settings-vr/ But kept the distance to ultra and clouds too I believe. The forest I used Tally mouse’s settings. Tinker with it, maybe there’s something’s you can/cannot live without . I chose as much of a balance of performance and quality as I could. I’m thinking about tinkering with the dlss settings to see if that still work and what if any benefits it has. good luck and clear stutter free skies

Danger, the cable is replaceable. I've pulled it out of the headset many times when I was having problems with pimax play and the Nvidia drivers. It was easier to unplug at the headset vs going to the back of my pc. Edit: buying an extra is a pretty good idea, I might just do that!
-
I thought it was pretty straight forward on both the Pimax play app and experience home. I will say that they should change the name of "my assets" to "my programs."

But the Chinese do, regardless of what state they live in. Hope your problems get resolved.

Which VR headset do you primarily use for playing DCS?
Blackhawk163 replied to NineLine's topic in Virtual Reality
Crystal light. -
I thought so. Ah well. Nah, that’s played out/overused and incorrectly at that. Anyway… Good to know Healtblur is on it then.
-
Guess it’s just relegated to a white male fantasyscape then . I remember reading that heatblur was looking into that.

Can we get a more diverse set of pilot models? Two of my left seaters were women when I served. My daughter often comes home and hops on the ah64 modules in between her vacations and when her temporary duty station brings her close here, and she pointed it out to me several times. I’m sure she’s not the only one. Also one of my buddies who I loved to fly with ( goes out to you WO3 Wolfe ) is black and he often chides me on it. So, what’s up ED, when can we have that?

Bugs and Problems
Blackhawk163 replied to Florence201's topic in DCS: AH-64D The Four Horsemen Campaign
Yeah, I agree. The first time I played the mission I did it as if I were playing lead because I didn't listen or read the brief and assumed I was still lead. The second I heard that there were targets near a village I headed that way and blasted them with rockets. I got up to the smoke marking section, but was Winchester before I could complete. I headed back the FARP where nothing happened there. Frustrating. Guess I'll have to skip yet another mission then. -
Bugs and Problems
Blackhawk163 replied to Florence201's topic in DCS: AH-64D The Four Horsemen Campaign
Mission 8 still broken for me. 1st set of targets by the village gets wiped out by U1 then we proceed to orbit until I get tired of formation flying. nothing else triggers. The only time I've ever triggered anything past the first set is when I rambo'd my way into the village. -
Same. But I think it's going to be a long time for that to happen.

Mission 8 borked for me
Blackhawk163 replied to Blackhawk163's topic in DCS: AH-64D The Four Horsemen Campaign
Ah, Ok thanks. Well, if anything, I used it as a formation flying training mission then lol. Guess I'll park the Adventures of Dim and Foggy for now. -
I have tried it 4 different times with four different mission breaking results with the last mission I actually kept as a trk file. First go 'round I made it up to where the positions are marked by smoke. Ugly 5-1 did mostly nothing, I ran out of ammo, went back to FARP to see if there's a way to rearm and refuel, no dice. Second go, init contact after incident, 5-1 goes in, I follow, targets neutralized, nothing follows. 3rd same situation as two however Ugly 5-1 goes back to FARP after contact is neutral, progression halts. Last one 5 flight relieves Boss flight. A10 out 30seconds, nothing follows as I practice formation flying for about 15 minutes, hard with a toddler on your lap. Was tempted to bugger off to an American Base for some Macdonald's, prefer a shawarma, but it is what it is. Fourth flight had one parameter change, and that was the loadouts. I switched to all rockets in the mission planner. I wonder if that's what broke the campaign 8BROKEN.trk

Denied on the buying dampers without all the other hardware. oh well
