Yes I read the same I think the latest update for the beta version (I think of WMR for steam) has broken reprojection so you need to revert back to the non-beta version....

Interesting comments - I just got the reverbv2 and was trying to set it up......note I had WMR for steam VR (beta) installed but never tried to launch it - note I usually loaded the mixed reality portal first (house) then just launched steam VR (beta) - 1)However noticed I never seemed to get the colored indicator at the top of the reverb display despite enabling it in the .txt settings file along with reprojection and was also never sure if reprojection was working correctly....Can someone confirm if I need to launch the mixed reality portal (house) and then launch WMR for steam VR(beta)? (note when I just tried this now it simply loaded up steam VR (beta) despite trying the launch the WMR for steam VR? so slightly confused! 2)Read somewhere that I should (for better reverb performance) update my Windows 10 from 1809 to version 1903? is this correct? 3)Do you need to install any specific drivers for the reverb?

Just trying to setup my reverb version2 and I seem to have 2 versions of the default.vrsettings file one that has a type of "vrsettings file" and the other has a type of .txt which one should I delete? also is it better to have "motionreprojection" as auto or motion vector? and in the WMR menu is it best to setting the hz as 60 or 90?

as its a cut and paste - think I will back up everything first just to be safe - anyone know where the controller profiles are sitting - is it within the saved games folder (this sits on my C drive) also if I copy and paste it (then delete the old folder when the new one works ok) assume this should work ok - or do I really need to cut and paste to avoid any issues?

Just been told I might also need to adjust some registry settings to point to the new location (in addition to updating the shortcut)in order for updates to continue working - anyone know which folder/where I need to change?

Just wondering what the latest is on this VR performance improvement patch (I think was meant to come with version 2.5.5)?

thanks so its as simple as cut and paste the whole directory to new location? - only thing you need to do is update the shortcut on desktop to point to new location?

Using the DCS open world beta - just wondering what the easiest way to move the install onto a new SSD drive - can you simply cut and paste the directory or are you going to need to reinstall everything again?

thanks for the guide will certainly have a look...…. but really looking for a quick and easy way to clean them (also can't imagine HP tech support would suggest a non-alcohol lens wipe of its likely to cause any kind of damage?)………..

Just wondering what everyone is using to clean there reverb lens? (mine now need a clean) - was told previously my reverb (pro version) should have come with a cleaning cloth which should be all that you need(which I didn't get) - HP tech support just told me they don't come with cleaning cloths! - they are suggesting using lens wipes (non-alcoholic)? anyone got any suggestions? Note when I had my rift was recommended (MCR lens wipes - for plastic glasses) and for the vive (was told Zeiss cleaners which I think were alcoholic)………..

@secoda will give this all a proper test at the weekend - but are you suggesting the "auto" selection will mean reprojection is not enabled if it hits 90 or below 45 fps where as the "motionvector" line will also work but will have the reprojection on all the time? also frustratingly struggling to get the indicator to work (even though have enabled the option in the VRsettings .txt file (removed "//") - assume it appears right at the top centre of the screen - but is there anyway to move it around/change the size?

secoda - thanks unfortunately didn't get a cloth with my headset but will request from HP...……… in terms of the file these are the settings I was using when my fps was fluctuating between 45-90...……………….but will test it some more.... interestingly in the link you attached from the steam page for the "motionreprojectionmode" its suggesting using "motionvector" rather than "auto" after the entry?

secoda thanks for the reply! however slightly confused with how the headset is behaving...…. so previously was getting the behaviour you described locked solid to 45fps - however then made a couple of changes 1)removed the line below from the default.vrsettings file "forceHalfRateWithReprojectionMode" : "motionvector", 2)Also in the WMR settings moved the hz from 90 to auto As a result of the above 2 changes fps now seems to be moving between 45-90fps - don't think either 1) or 2) should have switched reprojection off - note also always used the below (enabled) "motionReprojectionMode" : "auto", "motionReprojectionIndicatorEnabled" : true, strangely also have trouble seeing the status indicator at the top of the screen - note also some times when I save the "default.vrsettings" file it appears as a .txt file other times it appears in type as a VRsettings rather than text file (not sure this makes any difference though.....)...…… Update: Just noticed your steam post is recommending a different reprojection settings from either of the ones have been using! it says use: "motionReprojectionMode" : "motionvector", my settings file comes pre-populated with "auto" not "motionvector" at the end which is the one I simply enabled and the old version starting with "forecehalfrate" had "motionvector" not "auto" at the end! - whats correct? (maybe a listing of your settings file could help.....?) on the cleaning question don't think I ever got a cloth in my pack but will check again - also on my other headsets use disposable wipes with no problem rift (MCR) and vive (zeiss) - think these were actually recommended by the company's tech guys.....

fearless - thanks for the reply running better and smoother now.....also couple of other questions for you: 1)In terms of the colour coded indicator in the headset - enabled but I struggle to see it - think a few weeks back saw a green indicator but since then haven't seen anything along the top of the screen - how can I make it visible? 2)Just wondering what kind of behaviour I should see in the fps - got the reprojection enabled and 90hz selected - in the case the fps is between 45-90 (most of time) should It not just lock at 45? (feeling at the moment is that its moving between 45-90 and sometimes staying locked around 45? - with my previous settings sure it was fairly stable and locked a 45) 3)Final one! - lenses are starting to get a bit greasy with all the use - what are you using to clean them? (have the zeiss and MCR screen wipes which I use for the vive/rift) but not sure what the recommended is for the reverb?)...…….any help appreciated

ok got it! - just wondering in game what fps will I see when I cant hit 90? (note usually it locks to 45 but have seen 60 before?) also in the WMR portal whats the best settings (currently running Auto (hz) and high quality?) and for the first time today got the mouse issue where in the headset I lost control of the cursor (little white circle) with the mouse had to remove the head set then I could move the mouse around and navigate the menu's but only with the headset off! - whats the work around for this? (note in some games if you hit win+Y you get control of the mouse in the headset again (note also I checked the mouse box in the VR options already!...…. )

have the motionreprojectionmode set to auto and also the reprojection indicator enabled but: 1)Any need to include this line (sure it came from a post)? - "driver_Holographic_Experimental" : { "forceHalfRateWithReprojectionMode" : "motionvector", 2)Is 2.0 the best value for render target scale?

hans interesting post - just want to make sure your .vrsettings are the same as mine - the three I have enabled/added are the following: "forceHalfRateWithReprojectionMode" : "motionvector", "motionReprojectionMode" : "auto", "motionReprojectionIndicatorEnabled" : true,

thanks for the settings! some questions next to each one? also what settings are you using in the VRsettings notepad file for reprojection?

boe - can you post your settings (including how your using reprojection) as running a pretty similar setup to yours (except have the 2080ti) - getting a stable 60fps when running fw190 and spit over europe - but struggling with the f14 (getting 30-40!)……….……………...

fearless just to agree with your earlier post - basically if you can get the game to 60fps (which from your post enables the windows version of ASW?) its a complete game changer - was testing with asseto corsa (will test with DCS later) and managed to get it locked to 60 and its amazingly smooth with absolutely no judder...……………. Update: Tried with DCS and with the FW190 over Europe managed to get it locked to 60fps and was amazingly smooth with absolutely no judder - but with the f14 I was struggling between 30-40 fps and it never hit 60 and got some judder...…… weird thing is (and maybe you can explain it to me) in the WMR portal I set it to 90hz but I noticed in the steamVR options the headset was showing as 60hz before I had even tried to play asseto or DCS! - never had this before and surely it should be showing as 90hz?!(did notice my steam VR updating in steam before I used it)……..

interesting post - I think your saying you need to tweak the game so it will hit 55 to 60 fps to get the best motion reprojection - struggling at the moment even using a 2080ti (getting around 40-45 fps...…..can you summarise your settings?

actually I have reshade installed in my setup (makes a huge difference in the 2d game) - it can be enabled/disabled easily with the f5 key - it does load up in the menu's for DCS when I paly in VR- but not sure if it loads or has any effect on fps or visuals when using it with a reverb...………………?

using settings similar to you with pretty good results (the key in terms of smoothness seemed to be enabling reprojection in the vrsettings file) - also when you refer to tweaking steamVR SS - do you mean custom resolution to 180% or is there another setting? also I notice there is a motion smoothing in the steamVR settings menu - mine is ticked by default but from other posts don't think this actually does anything?

yes got it - as far as I am aware don't think you can enable motion smoothing for the hp reverb? (but might be wrong?) I did enable the motion Reprojection in the config file and it has definitely improved things (it seems to be by default disabled) - strangely before I enabled reprojection was showing in steamVR has on but from your other posts guessing this must have referred to the steam version of it......

think I got it - but to be clear before I made the adjustment (in the link) to the vrsettings file my framerate was getting locked to the 45 which assume was using the steam adjustment - now I have made the adjustment (removing the // from the required lines as per the link) when my frames lock to 45s it using the WMR adjustments? - which I am guessing is better)
