Hi, thanks for this link. I have read what is written in this thread and I can confirm that the crashed do stop right after changing the setting to non-active deferred shading. However this doesn't stop the slowness of DCS application according to the STEAM VR notification. Any ideas why this messages pops-up all the time? English translation: Ready (not responding) DCS.exe Best regards, enhenzer

Hello guys, since latest DCS v2.1 update I'm facing the issue that DCS is crashing all the time when I quit a mission and want go back to the main menu or sometimes even during mission runtime. Before the latest update this happended occasially, but now it happends all the time. The error message looks like this: English translation: The application is not properly executed due to a problem. The programm will be terminated and you will be notified when a solution is available. Also I get weird messsages from STEAM VR application right after the start of DCS (entry screen, no game is running), which looks like this: English translation: STEAM VR runs too slowly Your current VR-application is executed too slowly executed, which might if necessary lead to a bad experience. This might happened, because your application is too demanding or your PC performance might be insufficient. My hardware should not be the issue: HTC Vive Windows 10 (64-bit) i7-6700 CPU 3.40GHz 16GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 SSD drive I'm puzzled and looking for answers. Any ideas? I'm looking forward for tricks and hints. Thank you very much. Best regards, enhenzer

Hello Boum, I will try your settings, but I fear that it will not work for me. Yesterday I have worked on my settings. I started with very low settings and than I changed each setting step by step to high and back to low and checked the impact on the FPS. Not such much differerence. All settings on low or all setting on high make more or less no difference. Maybe 10 FPS. Average is about 30 FPS. Also I have a wierd message from steam VR application: Also the steam VR software says my application performance is too low, although I only have just started the DCS application (entry screen, no gaming is running). In a nutshell the steam VR message says: steam VR is executed too slowly, this might happend because of an application which is too demanding or because of a PC performance which is insufficient. BTW I like the way you fly. In your video I saw for the first time how a pilot in DCS did a run up check. Great! I would be very much in favour if players could gather points for following real flight procudures and not only for shooting down planes no matter if you have started on a taxi way or not.

Hello Guys, thank you for your posts. I have changed my MSAA and anisotropic values and the result was a slight improvement to my previous situation. But I still facing issues. Quite strange is that my FPS are basically not so much differnt, no matter if I have all settings on low quality or on high quality. Average FPS are ~30. BTW how many FPS would be normal with my hardware? Also the steam VR software says my application performance is too low, although I only have just started the DCS application (entry screen, no gaming is running). In a nutshell the steam VR message says: steam VR is executed too slowly, this might happend because of an application which is too demanding or because of a PC performance which is insufficient. Any ideas how to fix this? Best regards, enhenzer

Hello, I have serious performance issue, although that my hardware is quite good. So I thought maybe here is an DCS guy who can give ma a recommendation, which settings I should use based on his experience. Also this thread might help other people to use for comparison and as a starting point for their settings. What do you think? Which settings I should use with the following hardware (to play this game in VR)? HTC Vive Windows 10 (64-bit) i7-6700 CPU 3.40GHz 16 GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 SSD drive I'm looking forward for your ideas. Thank you very much. Best regards, Michael

I will open a new thread to check if someone else can help. Maybe a DCS guy can give an recommendation based on his experience.

Recommended Settings BTW, what settings you would recommend for the following hardware: HTC Vive Windows 10 (64-bit) i7-6700 CPU 3.40GHz 16 GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 SSD drive Looking forward foru your recommendations. Best regards, enhenzer

Thanks for the URL, badaboom. I will check it right away. Best regards, enhenzer

HTC Vive - huge performance issues Hello, today I played DCS 2.1 Normandy map on my HTC Vive for the very first time. It was a desaster. The performance was very bad, bascially this game was not playable at all. I used the same settings which I use with DCS v1.5 and which are usually fine, but in v2.1 these settings doesn't work. Even with low quality settings the performance is a nightmare. Not sure how to solve this issue. It think this is an issue of DCS and not of my hardware, because when I turn on "frame drop notification" no message is displayed, which means that grafik performance was fine (I guess). My hardware: HTC Vive Windows 10 (64-bit) i7-6700 CPU 3.40GHz 16 GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 I appreciate any kind of help how to solve this issue. I'm looking forward for your answers. Best regards, enhenzer

Thanks to all of you for your support and distribution. Your answers were a great help. I think I will uninstall my steam version and play DCS just as I can download it from DCS website.

Thank you very much for your swift answers. Do you have any rough idea when the Normandy map will be out of beta? What is the main difference between the graphic engines? Is it faster or better in quality or anything else? Do you know the main difference between DCS normal and DCS steam version? For me it sounds a little bit like it's not realy necessary to have the steam version. At the moment it seems that DCS normal version is more interesseting then the steam version. If Normandy map runs on DCS v2.0 only, do I have to buy the Neveda map as well?

Hello all, I bought the bf109k and the dora and I'm waiting desperately for the Normandy map. Usually I play DCS in VR by using my HTC Vive. My installation is a Steam version. Now here my questions: - When it is possible to pre-order the normandy map for steam? - In case I would buy the Normandy map now, would it be possibe to migrate this version to steam later on? - As far as I have understood the Normandy map is made for DCS 2.0 and the steam version is v1.5 only. Where are the main differences between DCS v1.5 and DCS v2.0? - Would it be possible to use my current warbirds for DCS 2.0, even when I have bought these for steam only? - Would it be possible to play DCS 2.0 in VR, even without a steam version? I'm looking forward to your answers. Thank you very much in advance. Best regards, enhencer
