Hey all, just got my super ultrawide last week and not happy. Let me know if any of you have experienced that same issues and if you solved them or not. For reference, im running a 9800x3d and a 5090 64gb ram.
1. In pimax home starry environment the sun and planet are not smooth circles but pointy like a dodecagon(pic attached). Anyone else? Pictured attached, although it very visible in the headset and does not look as bad in this picture but you kinda see it.
2. Very bad screen door effect in blue sky and clouds i can very clearly see the grid. For perspective, it is on par or even slightly worse if you can believe to my quest 3.
3. Lots of blurry text. in desktop view, scrolling web browsers is not clear, some game menus for example dcs setting menu is very unclear. None in the quest.
4. Chromatic aberrations before the newest update it was horrendous after the update its a little better but far from gone. Is it various places the one that comes to ming is the text on the in game multiplayer menus. None in the quest.
5.Shimmering around some text, and around the edges of in game and out of game objects.
6. Lots of distortions when moving my head around or side to side in game and out of game.
7. Feeling like there is always some smudging in my site even though the lenses are cleaned. seems to not always be in the same spot.
8. outer 30% of lense in alldirections seems very blurry. Not in the quest.
9. before the new update eye tracking didnt work at all. after the update it now works but everything outside of focus shimmers and distorts so bad its basically unusable.
10. i feel as though looking straight through the center precisely where there should be the most overlap, its hard to tell but i feel can see a fint outline of one of the lense borders. so when i look slightly left or right still mostly within what should be sweet spot there is some strange effect thats hard to describe but it breaks immersion. This does not happen in the quest either. In fact edge to edge clarity in the quest is far better than in the pimax.
11. More specifically for DCS. moving heads in any direction causes micro stutters its not fluid movement at all. And lots of artifacts and shimmering around begind other aircraft even some stationary objects.
Render quality is set to 1.00.
I have tried all the obvious things like position adjustment, IPD etc
I opened a ticket with pimax on sunday night. they responded monday morning I responded and tried their suggestions within a few hours. its been more than 24 hours now and no response. I was expecting a response this morning.
I have a 4-5 more days to decide whether to keep or return it. How much of this is normal for you guys? how much is settings related(I followed tally mouses and tried others as well with no improvement)? How much seems hardware related?
Also random question more generally about VR but are you guys noticing a weird object at the very top of your vertical vision. as if your catching part of the helmet or something. I getting that in both quest and pimax and in the f-16 and f-18. I do not remember this previously (pic attached). I hate it
