  1. I ordered on day 1 of presale - no shirt received, yet. (Germany) Maybe because I ordered the tomcat shirt. All I see is phantom shirts being shipped and posted in social media. Funny thing is two squadron mates received an additional phantom shirt.
  2. The bug is there since end of december after a SteamVR stable update. (Bug has been reported in the beta, but no one cared.) It affects DCS even if the Varjo OpenXR is used. (SteamVR components are used for tracking) - It throttles DCS to 10 fps. Only people with Steam DCS / or Steam MSFS are affected for some reason. I use DCS standalone and don't have the problem. A friend experienced it when setting up his new aero. He switched to DCS standalone and had no issues any more. A workaround is disabling OpenVR in Varjo Base. Another workaround is using an older SteamVR Version, e.g. the 1.27.5 beta. I'm losing hope this will geht fixed: https://steamcommunity.com/app/250820/discussions/3/4036978698787139585/ It feels like the Aero is already dying.
  3. You can have different presets and startup options with DCS Updater - someone already suggested that tool above. You can switch presets for 2D and for VR and have the launch options for 2D / VR in one handy tool. Ingame presets in the graphics options menu are also a way to fast switch 2D / VR graphics settings. (A disadvantage of the ingame presets in the graphics option screen might be, that some of them restart DCS...or is it only the "Fullscreen" option, not sure)
  4. That's strange. It doesn't even show in safe mode, right? What OpenXR runtime do you use?
  5. Hi, currently there is a SteamVR Bug that throttles DCS to 10 fps for Aero Users. The bug also affects you, if you are using the VarjoOpenXR Runtime. (SteamVR is used for tracking but due to the bug it loads additional stuff that throttles Varjo) Workaround is to disable OpenVR in Varjo Base. (your last picture "Compatibility") I see you are using DCS steam Edition. The bug doesn't affect DCS standalone users (yet?) for some reason. (Workaround 2 = switch to standalone ) It would be helpful to post here to make the issue more prominent: https://steamcommunity.com/app/250820/discussions/3/4036978698787139585/?ctp=2
  6. @SFJackBauer What's wrong with you, people are trying to help you. My god then do the reboot before starting DCS. Could be worse. Don't see why this should be the fault of DCS anyway.
  7. You don‘t see a reduced quality, because it‘s reduced where you don‘t look. You can even improve the clarity by supersampling only the eyetracked focus region a bit. Only on videos the reduced resolution of the downsampled aeras is visible. For Aero I would recommend Varjo-Foveated (VFR) instead of Quad-Views-Foveated (QVF). Different settings and no OXR Toolkit possible with VFR, though.
  8. 1900 € (excl. tax?) for the base model without a headstrap… So I‘m approaching 3000 € if I need eyetracking and want to be able to wear it? Uhhh.. I was hoping for <2.000 € incl. tax for a model with eye tracking (and headstrap!!). Edit: Oh and no inside out tracking so 1-2 tracking base stations (approx. 150 € each) needed.
  9. If you are affected you might try to disable "OpenVR" in Varjo Base. It helped someone on the Varjo Discord getting back to 90 fps. Maybe there is some sort of conflict after the SteamVR update.
  10. edit: oh you are the guy for whom it still works and you are on standalone dcs. So the standalone / Steam theory still stands. Yes. Only happens with DCS for all the other cases.
  11. oh no we are all doomed not going to start steam to prevent the bad steamvr update
  12. some guys reported this on the varjo discord. (MT client in all cases) There was a steamvr beta update (stable update possibly yesterday) that seemed to introduce the problem. One user opted out of steamvr beta and the problem was gone. Probably the bug is now in stable steamVR so maybe opting out is not possible any more. This all happens with Varjo OpenXR being the active runtime. (steamvr only used for tracking) And all cases use the Steam Version of DCS. Interesting: A friend of mine got rid of it by switching from steamDCS to DCS standalone. edit: oh and here is a bug report. Mabe post there as well: https://steamcommunity.com/app/250820/discussions/3/4036978698787139585/
  13. See his post and mine three posts above. He still sees them but probably only on the sinai map. It reportedly had flickering issues before the "global flickering" got patched into the game. Sinai probably still has these issues but they were covered up by the global flickering. Now the issues show again. Sinai Map flickering is reported in the corresponded forum/thread and can be mitigated or evaded by disabling cockpit mirrors.
