It looks like anti-aliasing and DLSS are turned off in my game settings, I don't think they worked too well with OpenXR. I'll follow ChariotOfFLAME's and your suggesting, I'm going to uninstall the software I have installed and I'm going to use QuadViews instead and I'll tweak the settings as you suggest from there. I always hoped there'd be a way to offload some of the workload from the GPU while in VR. Honestly, it's why I stopped playing for such a long stretch, DCS is epic in VR, I just can't go back to 2D. I really hadn't heard of QuadViews, I appreciate you both pointing me in the right direction. I'll provide an update as soon as I install the software and try DCS, and I'll post that log as well. Thanks!!!!

I'm on Windows 11, I've applied a few updates since Microsoft announced they were discontinuing support for WMR, but I always check before applying to make sure the update isn't upgrading me to 24H4. It seems like if you have WMR installed Widows won't update you past 24H3, at least that's been my experience so far...knock on wood. I am looking into creating an image of my hard drive just in case, I don't want my VR headset to be a brick before I'm ready to pick up a replacement. I will test these settings, DLSS wasn't so hot when I first tried it a while back, but DCS' support for DLSS may be better now. I appreciate your posting the links for and videos for your suggested settings! I will try these out and report back. Thanks!!

Ok, I've been using the launcher set to VR, I guess I can delete the shortcut with the parameters now. I did update to the latest version of DCS, though. Should I uninstall OpenXR Tools for WMR and OpenXR Tool kit? Do I still need those? I'll be sure to post the log file. I appreciate the help!!!

Hello All, Before I took a break from DCS I'd set up OpenXR for Windows Mixed Reality and OpenXR Took Kit. I wasn't really happy with the artifacting when enabling re-projection, but it got rid of the thing that annoyed me the most when I play DCS VR...the ground stutter when flying down low over terrain. I was really disappointed after I upgraded some of my components and this was still an issue. In hindsight, expecting an improved because I upgraded my motherboard, RAM, and SSD was naive of me. Anyway, I'd like to get back into the flow of DCS, but I have this feeling that I may not be up to date with the latest settings etc. Last time I played you had to add the variables to the DCS VR shortcut, and I'm not even sure that's still a thing since we have a new launcher now. I'm also wondering if I should just download DCS again this way I have a fresh start. Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated! I don't care what settings I have to run as long as I can get rid of that ground stutter while keeping a High visibility.

Thanks!

In passing, I read recenlty (mabye floggit / hoggit) that there was a problem with the VIper, something was broken. I was wondering what that was, It's been a while since I flew and i'm going to load up in a few minutes to do some quick missions to get a feel back. Figured I'd ask. Appreciate any feedback.

This You can really go far with the Viper. My favorite is to full AB burn to the tanker, fill up, go on mission. If not, get to altitude and relax and enjoy the ride. Fuel issues aren't as bad in the Viper as people think.

This is happening to me but with the carriers, the circles on the deck (whatever they are, don't know) render in only one eye, the flickering is very annoying. I doubt there is a fix but figured I'd add my experience with this bug. Edit: Setting monitors to Stereo seems to have worked for now, thanks for the tip.

Hahaha! that’s what I get for multitasking. Thanks, I will check it out. When I use the number pad I for 2D the view does not change while in VR. Maybe I’m doing something wrong.

Shouldn’t the HMCS show symbology for your steerpoint when looking left/right? Has this just not been implemented yet? Sometimes I find myself looking for a target at a steerpoint/SPI and for some reason I revert to looking for steerpoint symbology. Maybe it’s a reflex from playing the other game long ago.

I recently purchased the Mossie, the first time I went into free flight in VR I noticed the front windscreen’s metal frame work was aligned with my line of sight. Also, the gun reticle seems to be offset to the right which is probably normal but I wanted to make sure. It’s similar in the 109, I have to lean over to shoot / use the piper. if I save my views while not in VR will that same seating position load for VR? I feel as though I should be seated lowers so as to not have my view blocked by the metal framework.

Man! Trying to figure out that manual when I was 14 or 15 WITHOUT Youtube or online sources was crazy. I remember certain concepts I understood but other things (TMS, DMS, SOI, etc) I did not understand. I somehow made it by with the huge foldout key-binging poster and just flat out practicing my favorite weapons. Falcon 4.0 was such a blast. I used to love the Hornet (was the fist model airplane I built) but ever since Falcon 4.0 I've always been a Viper guy. Such awesome memories. I got into DCS thinking there was a Viper. I then found out they had the Hornet so I decided to go for that as my first full fidelity module. I enjoyed the Hornet but always wanted the Viper, I've been flying the Viper since the first day it was released and haven't touched the Hornet since. I don't care what state the Viper is in, that's what I fly, that's my BIRD! Love the Viper!

You'd be surprised how much having your HMD on will help you maintain speed. The video above by @Theodore42 illustrates how to hold you E in a turn, it's basically what I do as well but I fight the AI much lower. Mostly below 10K. You want to pull gently around 4-6 G's, it seems like the bandit is getting away but you will come around or he will slow down. Something will change with the geometry of the fight and you will have energy for an excursion which you can then recover quickly but fully unloading and then quickly loading on 4-6 G's. It takes a bit of practice though. This series below is pretty awesome for entries, 1C / 2C, sight lines etc, I would suggest watching the whole series if you have the time. Hopefully some of this helps a fellow Viper jockey.

The Vulcan 20mm Gatling gun and HARM's.

I also had similar results, I appreciate it !
