I’ve been struggling to achieve smooth head movements with TrackIR despite trying everything I can think of. My setup includes a 4070 Ti, an i7-14700K, and a 32" Samsung G8 OLED 4K monitor running at 240Hz. My frame rate in DCS is consistently above 100fps, and everything looks smooth—mouse movements, general visuals, etc.—but as soon as I start moving my head with TrackIR, it’s noticeably less smooth, almost like it’s running at 20-30Hz in comparison. I’ve tried setting my monitor to 120Hz to match, but it hasn’t helped. I’ve gone through the last four versions of the TrackIR software, adjusted settings everywhere to ensure consistency (120fps and 60fps tests in NVIDIA Control Panel, graphics.lua, and in-game), and experimented with V-Sync on and off. I’ve also tried multiple TrackIR profiles and am currently using Spudknocker’s. However, I don’t think it’s an issue with the profile itself—it seems more like a mismatch with refresh rate or frame rate, or something. I see creators like Growling Sidewinder with buttery smooth head tracking, and I’m trying to achieve that same fluidity. If anyone has insights or tips on where this mismatch might be occurring, I’d greatly appreciate it! Id be happy to post a video for reference. Or a screenshot of graphics settings. Thank you for your time

I'm experiencing an issue with a DDS afterburner file not reflecting any changes in DCS World, despite editing it in Photoshop and exporting with the NVIDIA Texture Tools plugin. The modified texture appears correct in Photoshop, and I rezip the files and place them back in the correct directory, but I see no changes in the sim. I've ensured the export settings, including format and mipmap generation, are correct, but the edits still don't apply. I'm seeking advice on troubleshooting this issue and ensuring the DDS file works correctly in DCS. FWIW the plane is VSN YF-12A (Blackbird). I belive it's connected to FC3. Thanks.

Did you ever figure this out? I am trying to change the DDS afterburner image of the SR-71 and when I can not get it to update in-sim. It keeps showing the original afterburner. And yes I do the plugin with Photoshop to edit DDS files. I save it and re-zip it and place it in the correct directory. Any ideas?

I believe this is correct. That's what I did Thanks, so if I do not use DLSSTweaksConfig to choose preset, how do I choose preset then? Is it as simple as in DCS I go to graphic options in-sim? Quality → Preset E Performance → Preset F

Now that I have placed the latest nvngx_dlss.dll in my bin-mt and bin directory, can I remove the DLSSTweaksConfig app? It's confusing me bcause I have the 3.8.10 DLL file in the bin/bin-mt folders now but if I open DLSSTweaksConfig App, it is still showing me preset options A,B,C,D,E,F,G

Update the DLSS preset used by DCS to remove ghosting
BlackReef replied to sleighzy's topic in General Bugs
Thanks! Yea I extracted the software to the bin-mt folder and run the .EXE and selected the "F" preset. I am happy with the changes, although I did not rename the nvngx.dll to dxgi.dll? I just extracted the files and ran the .exe. I guess if I am happy with the results I shouldn't mess with it lol Thanks again -
Update the DLSS preset used by DCS to remove ghosting

I run DLAA and so far this has HELPED the ghosting. It is still noticeable but much better. I like DLAA the best, but I wish I could "sharpen" the graphics a bit. It looks just a little bit too soft IMO -

BlackReef replied to sleighzy's topic in General Bugs
Does the DLSSTweaks.zip need to be extracted to bin-mt folder, or can I just extract to desktop and run the .exe and apply to all games on my PC? Also, will I need to run this .exe each time I play DCS? Thank you -
F-22A Raptor mod enhancement mod

Does anybody know if there is a way to turn down, change or turn off the vapor wave effect on this F-22? It seems to be different lately almost too much. Thank you for your help -

My friend, I am sorry that it seems like I came across as presumptuous. Much can be lost in translation on an internet forum. That is not my attitude or belief at all, and I am sorry you see it that way. I am very grateful for the SR-71 mod. I guess I was just trying to say that it is so good, so close to being perfect, that it could be there if it just got a little more attention. For a free mod it is very high quality and I fly it alot. Regarding the cockpit update, I did see on another forum that the creator was working on a new cockpit, however I have not seen that it has been posted anywhere since his update in 2021. Thank you,

Was this ever released, or are there any options for a Concorde model in DCS?
