    VR is made for DCS

    in Virtual Reality

    Posted

    Are you using the latest drivers for you GPU? I'm using version 368.69 at the moment, anything higher causes performance issues. Nvidia drivers, DCS and Oculus updates all have caused performance issues for me in the last few months.

     

    I can't thank you enough! 368.69 worked brilliantly! I can now play in VR with ASW off almost constantly at 90 FPS (although it's just a simple mission, with two planes dog fighting in a not-so-densely-populated area)! Never expected the driver can make such a huge difference!

    And DCS has been expecting VR...

     

    The DCS experience in VR is just unspeakably awesome... I become a better pilot simply because of the better perception of relative position and distance in VR. And the immersion... OMG! I am so glad that I bought an Oculus Rift.

     

    The frame rate, though, still needs improvement... I have set everything to low (see attachment), except the pixel density was 1.8. I am getting as low as ~20 FPS when looking at the ground. The stuttering is very obvious. I am on 1.5.5 and 2.0.4. Both installs yield about the same results.

     

    My specs is:

    i5-3570K at 4.3

    Nvidia 1070 core clocked at 1835

    16 GB DDR3

    Oculus Rift CV1

     

    I would consider mine a pretty beefy system. I could squeeze a little more juice out of my CPU, but I doubt it would make much of a difference.

     

    Despite the stuttering and the frame rate issue, the experience is still awesome.

     

    Patiently waiting for ED to work things out.

    "Microsoft has stated that even with customer support, some hardware changes will invalidate your free copy of Windows 10 and require you to purchase one. (This limitation does not exist in retail copies of Windows 10; those can be re-used by the user regardless of any hardware changes."
