RvL

Thanks for the quick reply Slughead. Will check it out, thanks

Have been using this mod since a few weeks and iam liking the performance upgrade and sharper visuals. Since the last update when changing views im getting a pink filter with only a inner circle without the pink filter. Does this sound familiar and is there a fix?

Up untill last year playing only singleplayer i decided to jump into multiplayer, but im only enjoying PVE servers which are also a great place to learn your aircraft and being in contact with other players flying missions together. It does tax your system having lots of AI on the ground and air. But since playing MP there is no going back to SP even having stutters and what not in MP.

You ever play multiplayer Edmuss? I remember you replied on my topic me having stutters and you had a 1070 back then. Im an MP guy myself and running also a 3070 with a Ryzen 5 5600x at 4.8mhz with 32GB ram at 3400mhz it still giving me bad frametime into the 20's with fps going into the 30's with steamvr SS at 60% and mssa at 2x with most other options at vr preset or lower. Also giving me pretty massive ghosting from motion reprojection. It certainly aint a toally smooth experience specially at times where big stutters appear for seconds or even minuten before going back normal again. A few months ago it worked way better. I really hope Vulkan and VR optimalisation will be released soon. I really feel like my VR experience is differend every time i play. Sometimes it feels smooth, oher times its a stuttershow and i wonder what have changed. Cant seem to put my finger on it. I wish to have a 100% smooth experience which looks like something unrealistic at the moment for VR.

Thanks for helping Funkster and all the others! Seems like looking over a setting which you thought you already checked can make a big difference. (HAGS)

Since i disabled HAGS again the stutters are gone. Did also have to revert to stable versions of steamvr and wmr. The beta's were causing almost 1:1 crashes when playing. Having SS set at 100% and no msaa doesnt give me the performance and visual balance which i have now.

Went from a 1070 to the 3070 and i am quite pleased with its performance for VR! Knowing that ED is working hard on vulkan implementation and VR optimalisation, i guess things will even get better for us VR enthouastics the coming months. Also cant wait to fly the AH-64 in VR, gonna be a blast!

Thanks for your input. I have to be clear that my problem got fixed by redisabeling HAGS. Somehow this got enabled again or during testing, reinstalling windows and whatever not, i might forgot disabling at all. I dont know. But since i disabled it again my stutters are gone. I did explain this in my other topic 'unplayable G2 stutters' a few days ago. 60hz with reprojection did get me very smooth gameplay. But i surely prefer the 90hz being way more easy on the eyes. At the moment my fps is pretty stable at 45fps even in big pve multiplayer servers. I did have to adjust the SteamVR SS back at 60% while i was used to 80% a few weeks back, but its not even that noticeable. I can wait like this untill vulkan and vr optimalisation is there and still enjoy the game.

Im using 4 sticks of Corsair DDR4 Vengeance LPX 8GB 3200 C16. The charts say im using arround the 16gb of 32gb available. At the moment my performance is pretty decent with SteamVR SS set at 60% with msaa x2.

Tried it. Been adjusting the sharpness to below 0.5 cause above it looked way to sharp. I dont think i see any performance boost using it.

I had it set at force always which also caused the crashes. Going back to stable solved this.

Thanks! Was about to ask about shader mods and which one to use. I've seen topics about fholger. Is this one multiplayer compatible?

Will try. Edit: seems like after going back to stable makes a difference for now. Will have to continue testing Edit again: yup, havent had any crash anymore since reverting back!

I have the beta versions for wmr and steam and i believe i have the latest drivers. Will check again to be sure.

When i go back to 90hz and instead of enable or per app in the steamvr settings and select enable, SS at 60% right now for testing, when i want to fly just singleplayer or multiplayer my fps is all over the place like 45,68,42,74,81 and within a few seconds i get the message 'Unexpected SteamVR Error' 'Steamvr has enountered a critical error'. With the option to restart SteamVR and Quit SteamVR, while DCS is still running the game in the VR mirror screen at 8fps.

Yeah could be. During flight im not seeing it so its not that big of a deal.

@MelkorBorgir im using the V2 cable. @Sr. since 2.7 launched i stopped using shader mods. I might try one again. Im 99% a multiplayer guy, and that works quite good. Could be better, but since i went from a 2600 to a 5600x ive noticed quite the performance increase since im always on busy PVE servers where a lot is happening at the same time. Hopefully Vulkan and the VR improvements ED are working on will make things even greater. Single player offcourse does perform overall better then multiplayer, but its really depended of the mission. When Steamvr motion smoothing is not working at all be sure its enabled in the SteamvrSettingsUx.exe. Ive noticed that when i reinstalled Steamvr that this setting is disabled by default.

I just did some tests playing at 60hz mode and forcing motion reprojection still giving me smooth experience and only had 1 moment where my fps went fluctuating into the 50's/60's checking some other players online pressing F2. Iam experiencing some ghosting looking arround a aircraft with F2, but it doesnt bother me that much. I also must say the white flickering from the 60hz mode is something i get used to by playing for a few minutes. Right now i have my steamVR SS at 80hz, most visual setting at medium to low and msaa at 2x. My gpu temp doesnt go higher then 65 degrees celcius. Checking my frametime with FpsVR im arround the 20ms.

@speed-of-heat yep done that. There are i believe 2 more settings in that graphics tab about vram and something else. The vram option box is checked. Not sure about how that effects performance. Any idea? @Sr. Yeah its not that noticible, but im hoping to fix something else having my performance back i used to have a few weeks back when i didnt need to force it and having these glitches.

Tried that, but the fluctuating fps still happen, specially looking to the left or right from the cockpit down to the ground. I also notice with forcing motion smoothing i get some strange graphical glitch looking like ghosting arround buttons even in the menus.

Checked HAGS and i have no idea how, but that damn thing was on while i thought it was off. I disabled it and bam, smooth gameplay. There is still something weird going on causing motion smoothing being disabled sometimes in game causing my fps fluctuating between 45 and 80fps for seconds before it gets stable at 45 again. I turned down SS to 50% what seems to minimize the fluctuating fps. But overall there is much improvement by disabling HAGS. I have no idea how it was enabled again. I have been switching up so many settings the past few weeks, maybe i looked over this one with the latest Windows reinstall, not sure. Gonna have some more testing to do to fix those out of nowhere fluctuating fps which also causes stutters. But im glad the overall stutters are gone.

Interesting. That sounds just like my issue while HAGS is disabled. But gonna switch it again a few times in case it didnt liked it being switched just once.

Thanks, but yeah, i already did that.

Its disabled.

At the moment iam in W11. But i have tried W10 multiple times in the pas few weeks and also W10 gave me the exact same issues.
