I just checked the manual and it states it has a collimated lens.. I thought it was a fresnel lens I was wrong. so maybe this collimated lens has some funny issues I am seeing.. it is more in VR but I can look past it I was just trying to determine what the artifacts cause was, that is all and if anyone else is seeing it in VR..

Well I had messed with DCS for another few hours tweaking and here is what I came up with. 1. Resolution in Steam VR @ 2232x2184 which came out to be 50% I set it in per application, still 1:1 ratio and with DCS PD at .8.. here are my settings in DCS:

well my rig is not powerful enough to run the G2 at native res I run SteamVR @ 50%.. but I had a rift S and thought it could have been the rez of it but that is not it.. I think it is some wierd effect with the Fresnel lens on the EP-13..

Well if you are using VR there is a section in the Buttkicker that expalins how to get it working let me see if I can find that guide.. EDIT: Yes in the Buttkicker Gamer quick start guide page 3 is how to hook up the buttkicker with a USB headset which VR is..

Well while you may not be able to run the G2 at native res you can gedt by @50% res in steam vr even with all settings in DCS down to minimal it will look way better then the O+ I had a simialr run as you Odyssey +,, G2,, Rift S,, Back to a G2 and I have a 1080GTX..

Well I looked in to the Barell distortion thing and setting the correct native res. while you are correct about setting the rez higher in Link Settings it does not mean you can.. If you note in your Link settings pic where it states Render Resolution Resolution under the L there is a white tick mark that is the suggested setting for your System and is reccomended to use it.. I also note you said you tried it @1.0 and it did not effect anything well if that is true then there is something else that is wrong here.. maybe your PC is defective or OC too high or something.. but you said all your other games run fine but DCS being DCS is NOT the other games.. Not sure what to tell you but I would rety setting to the Reccomended tick mark there and restart the link Program and DCS and see what your Frametimes are? if your @1.7 but the settings program is reccomending lower higher is not gonna fix that Problem and yes I understand that is the native rez but like I said above just because it is the native rez does not mean you can run it at native res Are your setting in DCS the same and you are on a 3070? PErhpas try a Uninstall of GPU Drivers with DDU and reinstall newer drivers?

Well with the G2 I get the same effect in the EP-13 lens.. I am wondering if it is supposed to look like this or is it a weird lens issue with the EP13 Fresnel lens?

Hey Lucky, I just wanted to thank you again for a very seamless transition plus the fast ship time and getting it to the UPS for delivery to my house.. The Reverb G2 was in excellent condition and I had not had a problem with it. So hats off to Lucky for the great Price he offered the G2 at plus the shipping price ended up being a bit lower then he quoted and he refunded me the Difference A++.. If you happen to have a 3080 you wanna get rid of let me know..

Hey, I just bought a used Reverb G2 and I am going to see if I get the same effect on the EP-13 that I did with the Rift S. If it is still there in the G2 I will know it is something in the game which I think it is the Rift S lower res. or lenses or something. So we shall see.

Found a place to make them for me hopefully I can get a quick turnaround and good price

hmmm I do not think shapeways had that material listed?? thnx tho

Thank you for the help but I was looking for the breakdown of what PETG is Pertoleum electric tungsten gas?? I was going to get shapeways to print it up but I did not see any material that was PETG whatever it is?

Hey I just got a G2 and was looking to get these mods made up but I am trying to find out what is PETG? thnx

Your Welcome. Did you get it working now? if so great news good luck with it.

hmm well it seems you have to copy it, if it was tried on the Original Shortcut DCS put there when installing the game, the DCS_Updater.exe I dont think that will work is what I ment.. if it does my appologies..

are you using the original shortcut DCS made on your desktop? if so that is not what you are supposed to use.

OK I see now so this is only for the Quest 2.. I was wondering in the Rift S do I need to set the panel distortion as well and not use the native rez?

HEY Lucky I PM'd you about the G2..

OK PM Inbound Lucky for the G2..

well maybe for the quest 2 IDK but he does mention if you are able to run a 1:1 PD 1.0 they there should be no need for SS. I read the tweet but it does not make sense that you would need to be higher then the panel res? I understand he noted Panel distortion but it still seems way high for a panel distortion. If I went that high 1.7 with my Rift S there is no way it would work with my current system in DCS.. But like you stated the problem persisted down to 1.0 well there could be something wrong somewhere in your system perhaps does not make sence that you lowered the res and still had stutters or whatnot?

Well to be honest your issue appears to be you are running to high resolution I seen your screenshot and in the OP you had 1.7x the res that is probally way too high.. In the other screenshot you had it at like 5000 something res that is not native.. Now I am not a fan boy but since I OC'd the snot out of my PC and I only have a 1080 GTX my game has been running with ASW 40FPS solid most times and I had pretty high settings.. What all you guys/gals are doing wrong is running the res and hz too high.. I have a Rift S and hardly see any issues.. whilst it is not perfect and get an occasional spike but overall very playable with lesser gear then some of you guys have.. my specs are in the sig if you have better then me and are running lower graphics well it is not all DCS's fault..

Hi, Well since you had this mod for a while I wanted to check in and ask how is it going. my main concern with this mod is that it will put to much inward pressure on the earlobes and cause slight pain in the lobes after some time was wondering if this is the case here? Was the sound better then with the gap in it or with the earmuffs.?

what headset do you have a G2?? the native rez of a G2 vis 2160x2160.. Do you have the Per application in Steam VR set for DCS??

Rel4y, I sent you an email for a Cougar Mini stick if available.. Still have the X,Y axis pots working great for some time now..

well I am not sure best bet is to try it and see if it works?
