  2. At least now we reached a conclusion.
  3. Your best bet is this but you will need to have yet another camera tracking device in your architecture/constellation: https://pointctrl.com/products/
  4. You use a high end MSI b450 motherboard. Out of curiosity, why did you choose to use AMD Ryzen Master instead of msi bios auto OC?
  5. Don't know about the performance impact, but I always had stability problems when running Oculus app + Steamvr.
  6. I really have big doubts that they will really implement vulkan anytime in the future. She already hinted that "the code is tough". They might just drop it altogether in hopes that hardware brute force alone will solve their core problem. They "were" supposed to be working on Vulkan since 2017, although very little or anything is known about that. The bottomline is that it might just be that they haven't even started it yet.
  7. There's a big difference between Instagram/Whatsapp and Quest 2. If they ban because, whatever*, in the former you loose your contacts, chats and pictures. The latter, you loose all the money you spent on games in their platform and brick your headset. *whatever could mean anything they see fit to ban you.
  8. 2020 and the neglected state of DCS Core is overwhelming.
  9. I noticed that some buildings are rendered farther than others. So there must be a classification somewhere. Would it be possible to use the above or a similar function to hide a certain class of buildings while leaving others as was?
  10. C'mon, you guys getting 3090 at launch day and cheaping out on only 1000W PSUs? :lol:
  11. I bought this and it works better and is cheaper than any hub I had: https://www.startech.com/en-us/cables/usbplate4
  12. Thank you, that's what I thought. The main reason why I upgraded mine was because I couldn't find a Z97*. The Z87-G45 and my old 4770k was very good despite being only DDR3; the main problem was that it didnt support native SSD m2 nvme booting. You can hack it if you have the skills, I don't. That alone was reason enough for me to think upgrade, even if, when I did, I was poor living below the poverty line. *I actually did. I bought one on ebay for about the same price I paid on my B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC(new), except it was used and when I received it, I immediately sent it back because some of the socket pins were bent. Gladly I had paid it via paypal, which guaranteed I could have my money back.
  13. The reason is because ED failed to keep the core game engine updated to new technologies, like multi-cored cpus, so the game uses basically one or two cores only for everything. The game is not at all optimized for VR, so in theory, higher cpu single core frequency equals higher performance. On the other hand, to base one's assumption on that alone is short-sighted, because it doesn't take into account, for example, higher ram speeds that can only be achieved in modern systems (motherboard+cpu+ram), among other things that contributes to performance other than cpu frequency alone. By the way, what's your motherboard model?
  14. Is there an option to kill the artificial external camera motion, where planes are made to artificially look as if not flying on rails?
  15. I'm sorry, but I'm still waiting for your real world benchmarks that validates that your stated synthetic 8% spec performance increase R5 3600 vs 4670k translates to actual DCS only 8% performance increase. You said I'm trying to fool OP, then prove me wrong.
  16. By the way, I upgraded from a 4770k...
  17. How about some real world benchmarks? Do you care for that?
  18. :doh:
  19. My suggestion to you: You desperately need a full system upgrade. If you're smart, starting today you can start getting the items with very good discounts. Start looking for either a second-hand or new B450 tomahawks motherboard and don't waste a good bargain. As the most popular msi b450 motherboard, it will definitely have the optional firmware upgrade to support new zen 3 processors. https://www.cclonline.com/search/?q=b450+tomahawk Then get the new zen 3 CPU, the equivalent of the current zen 2 r5 3600 with some 32gb ddr4 3200mhz ram and I assure you that you'll be future proof for at least the next 4 years. You can also get a r5 3600 now, like mine, and you will be good for sometime while still having the possibility to upgrade to zen 3 whenever you feel the time is right. Make sure to keep the original cpu fan stored in the original box for when you're ready to put it for sale on ebay. In the meantime wait until the smoke clears out and all the bots and all the obsessive consumerists that camp in front of "apple" stores (nvidia resellers in this case) get their new next gen gpus and start looking for second-hand bargain previous generations GPUs, like a 5700xt, a 2070 super, or even 2080s. This way, you can get a very capable system, for a fraction of the full price. Me, I'm like you. I'm not the one who will spend thousands for fresh new gadgets. Instead I look for value-for-money bargains. I got my 1070ti for £120 + my b450 + r5 3600 + 16gb ddr4 ram* for less than £370! (new and shipped!) That's a less than £500 system, VR ready. I can play most VR games, in my CV1, at 90fps in mid-low, and dcs in mid-low at smooth 45fps in the syria map. My next upgrade will either be a next gen amd gpu or a previous gen rtx while keeping my CV1 until they force me to log in via facebook. *Recently upgraded to 32gb by stepping onto a bargain ram sale!
  20. Perhaps you should start contributing instead of picking on forum members.
  21. Unfortunately, like most things DCS, it's only half-finished.
