    Multithread Pimax8kX - 50+fps.

    in Multi-Threading Bug Reports (Temp)

    Posted

    Hi everybody,

    For Pimax users I've seen openxr/steamvr/changes, etc so I thought I would post what is  working for me.

    Hardware: I9-9900k, 64gb RAM, RTX 3090, Pimax 8Kx at 75hz (could never get it to work 90hz)

    Pitool 1.0.1.280, Firmware 2.1.255.299
    Panel: Native, 75hz

    Game setting: FOV Large, RQ 1, FFV close, parallel off, smart smoothing off, compulsive smooth close, hidden area mask checked.

    SteamVR:

    Motion smoothing on, resolution custom @ 5060x3160. 

    Nvidia 3D settings:

    Image scaling: off

    Antostropic filtering, app controlled

    FXAA, Gamma: off

    Antialiasing: app controlled

    Max Frame rate: OFF --- this one seemed to solve any CPU bound frame issues.

     

    DCS:

    Everything is set to max/ultra (shadows are low), and my PD is 1.2.

    Very acceptable frame rates for me. 

     

     

    MP Desyncs are getting on my nerve

    No,

     

    we are saying we are looking into it. Fact is user or server connections with packet loss are creating the problem. We dont have any control over that, we can only tweak the network code to try and mitigate its effects, and that is what we will do. 

     

    thanks

    Is it pure loss, or jitter and reassembly?

    A hotfix for debug/stats to drop in server log files would be helpful for ALL of us.

    TACAN/ICLS stop after time + numerous AC connecting.

    Hello all,

    I have searched for other TACAN reports, and I have seen TACAN/ICLS go bent on MP servers such as Hoggit/TTI.

     

    I fly with a group of folks (CSG-2), and we've seen this happen more often when multiple player units connect to CVN's TACAN.

     

    Scenario; F-14 and F/A-18 units (20+) return from mission within +/- 20 minutes. Heading to carrier all flight leads if not all AC tune TACAN to CVN.

    TACAN will go sour.

     

    We have tried various methods for resetting TACAN/ICLS on the carrier (trigger), and will be trying methods via the LUA interpreter directly this coming weekend. 

    Anybody have guidance, or is ED already looking at this?

    Thanks,

    DCS_Updater access violation.

    in DCS 2.9

    Hi there,

     

    Was away for a few days.

     

    Ran DCS Updater, saw I was getting integrity check errors on some IC servers.

     

    On further inspection, DCS_Updater is showing acccess violations.

     

    Looks like it's downloading to the new _downloads directory under "DCS World", but unable to move the files to their destination directory.

     

    Anybody seeing this issue?

     

     

    Snip of the log below.

    2.5.6 Pimax Night Ligthting issue, NVG FOV.

    in VR Bugs

    Posted

    Hello,

     

    While VR performance has improved, night lighting issues seem to cause headache inducing problems.

     

    There are two issues:

     

    Issue number 1 -

    See attached "night test.miz", in Persian Gulf (or any map) Lighting shimmer will render in one eye, but not the other. This seems to increase if bank angles are obtuse and not perpendicular to ground. Zoom in will resolve the issue.

     

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1E-uSYWCDqt6TGtAcjwbxcu7_cM7MMXsm/view

     

    The link above is a very good example of what this looks like.

     

    Issue number 2 -

     

    NVG overlay with wide FOV. Without 3DMigoto mode, the NVG overlay is >70 degrees outside of your FOV. 3Dmigoto is required to bring the NVG goggles back to viewable area.

     

    With previous release, 3DMigoto and settings below would remove the "shimmer", then last 2.5.6 OB, while VR performance was hateful, at least night worked ok.

     

     

    Level set of:

    Pimax 5K+ , PITool V1.0.1.258, firmware V2.1.255.255

    Pixel Density: 1.5 (will turn this to 1.2 for performance)

    IPD: 56

     

     

    Attached is a Persian Gulf Mission: "night test"

     

    Very re-producible with Pimax. Not certain about other headset manufacturers.

     

    Myself and a couple of other Pimax users have tried every permutation of settings. Too much deviation causes issues with SuperCarrier, so I would prefer to keep the changes down to a minimum as this appears to be an engine rendering problem.

     

    Please advise.
