The fact that fans can implement patches like this one https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=215373 makes me think it IS possible but ED just don't have enough employees or focus on the wrong things instead of optimizing the game. Seeing that none of you is disappointed in running the game in 45FPS instead of 90 make me think that maybe they are right... maybe people just want more planes and not better performance and 90FPS in VR.

I see in the old posts that people actually played this game in VR with 90fps. I feel that is unacceptable that it's been months since anyone (with any hardware) has played this game in 90fps (constantly, not just when viewing clear sky). It is discouraging to see how many people now just accept that this game will only run @45fps. I almost always feel the difference between 90 and 45fps in eye strain. My eyes feel tired after even 30-60minutes of playing @45fps while I can play for hours @90fps with almost no discomfort. Is it just me? I did hear that WMR reprojections are the worse of the 3 (rift, vive, wmr) but is it just that or is everyone feeling this? I think we have to demand devs rework the graphics faster or just revert the stupid "graphical improvements" that made the game run soooo bad! I will not buy any other module for the game until they do this. I hope we can unite in an effort to force them to take action regarding this issue.

If you want to say a game has VR (and is not in beta) you HAVE TO have 45FPS minimum with low settings! That is a must! At this time, with a decent PC you have to have it @ 1.0 SS , no MSAA, low settings AND shadows disabled. That is unacceptable! There are a lot of games that look 2x better and hold 90FPS 90% of the time .... ED should get their s...... together and optimize the VR. They do not do anything because there is no serious rival for modern plane warfare on the market. That is sad and I do hope that will change soon.

And what SS (in game or steamVR) & DP do you use? P.S: I have no ideea why people are not more upset that with high end computers like yours there is no way to hold 90FPS in this game... If we would put pressure on the devs, I am sure the game would get optimized for VR (And I would love that because I do not see myself playing it on a flatscreen ever again after playing in VR)

Yes, I have DCS in Steam. I think the oculus software is using some of the resources and maybe even causing some of the problems but I cannot just uninstall it because I need it to play Dirt Rally (and uninstalling it and installing it every time I need it takes a lot of time). I will try to set "Run in Admin mode" so it does not auto-start. Hope it will help with loading screen issues so I can turn on MSAA x2 or set SS to 1.3 again (in the past it seemed to work ok). Did you ever get those loading screens while in game?

When you start the game in steam VR, what do you select? I have 4 options to choose from: Start in desktop mode (or something like that) Start in Steam VR Start in Oculus mode Start in Steam VR 2.5 The Oculus software startsup regardless of what I choose (not sure if it affects anything) but if I start it with "Start in Steam VR 2.5" with even some MSAA (in game because I cannot get Nvidia Control pannel to do anything) or SS (1.2-1.3 from Steam VR) I get a lot of VR loading screens (the steam VR gray zone with a square of DCS in the middle and 3 lines just below it that usually appear when starting up a game) on the ground and on other demanding views. P.S: The most demanding and easy to reproduce scene is "ready on the ramp" with f/a18c in caucasus map or persian gulf. Both drom below 45FPS when looking at the planes to my left with any shadows enabled. My PC: i5 8600k @ 4.8GHz asrock z370 pro4 16GB RAM @ 3200 GTX 1080Ti @ 2050MHz samsung EVO SSD

I cannot hit 45FPS on the ground with 100% Samsung Odyssey resolution with a GTX 1080Ti OC @ 2025 MHz if I enable ANY shadows and you people are talking about 200% SS... Can you even fly with those settings or is it just a pretty screenshot that you see every half a second or so :))

I am just guessing here BUT I do think that you have double vision in both displays! That is because the PC cannot render 90FPS (it probably gets 40-60) and that is the effect it creates! All you need to do is turn on reprojections (the thing that makes 45 FPS display 90 FPS in the headset). The steam VR one DOES NOT WORK FOR WMR. All you have to do is edit 1 or 2 lines in a file. https://steamcommunity.com/games/719950/announcements/detail/1652133167137673234 Hope it helps!

I have a Samsung Oddesey (1440 x 1600 per eye) and my rig is i5 8600k OC @ 4.8 GHz 16GB RAM 1080TI OC @ 2025 GHz I get those loading screens even with everything set to low and the resolution set as close to the native one as I can set! In the past if I started the game in Oculus mode (not steam VR mode) they would not appear but in december they started appearing even then. :( @frogger did lowering the settings help get rid of them for you?
