I haven't noticed any moire and I fly a lot on the Syria map ( Cyprus ) at different times of the day from first to last light. Unless there are more conditions that need to be met to have the effect visible ? I noticed in your footer you also fly the new Germany map, I don't want to hijack this thread but a few days ago I posted about something I noticed with this map. There are quite some views but no comments so I'm wondering maybe few people fly VR on Germany or the problem is only with me ( which I kind of doubt ). I'm curious if you have this mysterious effect, the post is here ;

I found the problem and have the solution ; Problem : the access point that the Quest3 was connecting to was unable the keep the bitrate high enough, it was at 5GHz with too many other clients randomly connecting Solution : now using a dedicated 6GHz access point with only the Quest3 and DCS computer connected to and all is smooth as butter

Flying over the whole of the Germany map I noticed that objects ( buildings, landmarks, airports and accessories, ... ) and complete sceneries disappear. It happens in VR and is not random, the same objects or buildings will always be affected in the same way. What happens is when flying you will see an object and suddenly that object will disappear and leave an empty spot on the map, or you will notice an awkward empty spot on the map and suddenly it will be filled with and object. These objects being visible or invisible depends on the angle you look at them, by changing the viewing angle ever so little the object might appear or disappear. I attached two screenshots of the same spot on the map, one with and another without the building ... difference was the viewing angle. Exactly the same happens with complete landscapes ( like flying over Berlin half of the city will disappear ) and it will seriously affect performance. Stable 90FPS will drop to 60FPS with light stuttering but once you leave or don't look in that direction performance will return to a stable 90FPS.

I am also a huge fan of VD until this happened ; A few months back I build a new computer just for DCS : 9800X3D 4080 SUPER 64Gb RAM 6400 4Tb SSD 990PRO MSI X870 Tomahawk 1250 MAG PSU Quest 3 Windows 11; stripped down, fully debloated, no Defender, no Edge and no updating. All this running via VD at 80FPS native ( no SSW ), 200Mbps bit rate, Godlike and the experience was beautiful. DCS 80 FPS in the green, GPU bound. Super smooth flight with incredibly crisp and clear image, never got any stuttering. Come end of March I noticed when getting into DCS there was random “ static / cracking noise “ from launching into the main screen all the way into flights. Each time there is this “ noise spike “ it comes with a stuttering, like a frame freeze and they seem to be matched one noise means one frame stutter. Over these few days it has become worse exponentially, now the noise keeps cracking and the image is one big stutter rendering the whole sim impossible to play. Nothing looks wrong with the frames, even during the stutters the frame rate stays a stable 80Fps ! Nothing comes to mind what could have changed to either hardware or software, every piece is still exactly the same. Nothing has been updated, added or removed. Getting a bit frustrated hunting down the cause, checked all the hardware. Running tests without any USB controllers connected, VD tuned down to a potato, lowered all settings, tried all Codec and fps combinations ... the cracking and stutters are still there ... Finished a clean install of windows and DCS ... and ... still cracking and stuttering ... so frustrating ! Out of ideas I tried the USB-Link but it just is no good, image just looks bad and whenever looking closely down to the ground in flight there are ever so small stutters breaking any immersion. Which was why I basically turned to VD two years ago. Any ideas or maybe you experienced the same “ magic “ ?
