Cool, thanks! I'll stop hijacking your thread now.

Cool, thanks for that and performance was about the same? ie, same sort of FPS & frame times?

Will the FPS& frame time be the same with a G2 at 50% SS compared to a G1 at 100%, if you use the same PC? Reason for asking is, I'm trying to decide whether to go for the 6900XT. I have some performance number from someone who has a similar PC spec as mine but with a 6900XT and a G2. I have a 2080Super and a G1.

So, if you set the G2 SS to 50-ish % and compare the picture quality to 100% SS with a G1, will the image quality be identical? Which also leads me to ask, will the FPS & frame time be identical?

Have a look at this video at 2:30. Bear in mind, Art's plane is stripped out of avionics to make it even lighter than a standard Sea Harrier used to be. For his airshow he fills up to 1800 lbs of fuel. And his engine is +2% on the engine datum, so it's more powerful than the average Pegasus. Exactly this! I don't know why people are so annoyed that they can't hover with a full load out and full fuel. That was complete nonsense that Razbam has finally sorted out. Now the jet is performing closer to reality.

Yep, VR, Reverb G1. It's noticable when you are in Nellis, not on other maps as far as I can tell.

I had mine set the same as yours as per your great thread. I may have changed a few settings to see if it made a difference. I'll revert back to your settings and check again.

No mods, I used to have the VR shaders mod to improve performance, removed that for 2.7. Is there any setting in the Nvidia control panel that controls shimmering? I have clamped LOD bias and have AA set to application controlled.

Just been wondering...VR performance has increased in DCS over the last 6 months or so but I have also noticed that the picture quality seems to have decreased a bit compared to 6 months ago. I seem to have more shimmering of objects as if the MSAA is switched off despite it being at 2x. Some cockpit instruments also seem a bit more blurry than before. So, has the coding been improved for VR or has ED just reduced some picture quality settings by default and gained the performance that way? Any thoughts?

Yep, it's off. It seems that ON or OFF for global illumination makes no difference on my system. Really weird

I am looking for a static object that is used for parking stands at bases, usually US bases. It has a metal construction with a white cover, as per the pic. I have seen the canopy static objects (3 versions) in the VPC 0.94 airfield equipment mod but they don't quite look like the ones you see at USAF / NAVY/USMC bases. Does anybody know if these have been made by anybody?

No idea, I'm not an expert but it worked for my 3600 cpu and now for my 5900x. Well, I managed to fix the 2nd mission loading crashes by removing the OC on my GPU. Still, 2nd mission runs crappy with high frame times. I'm about to test if Flappie's tip works. He says, when you finish the 1st mission go into settings and just click OK, then load 2nd mission. For some people this prevents the crash. I'm gonna see if it makes the sim run smoother.

Yeh, I know...don't want to jump the gun but I managed to swap between loads of modules, including the A10C II in Syria and no crash. If the crashes come back I'll report back.

I have had these crashes too...all the time. Then tonight I removed the OC on my 2080 Super GPU and was able to load 8 or 9 missions without crashing at all. I changed modules, maps, and used my own missions and instant action. Removing the OC seems to have fixed it for me.

Yes, I had it when the cable connection of my Reverb G1 was a bit loose (the connector that's about 1 ft from the headseat, that brittle plasticcy thing). Securing it again and taping it up sorted that problem. Also, make sure you have good lights and have reset your environment in WMR if you have changed the area where you play. 2.7 has screwed things up for me in VR, I'm not impressed tbh. The clouds look like crap, they jitter and are performance hogs on my system. No idea how some people say that they look great and improve performance.

Ok, found it, thanks. So does that mean you don't start WMR at all before you click to start DCS? My sequence after Windows bootup is : 1) Ryzen Master - On , set GAME MODE - AUTO PBO 2) WMR - start 3) STEAM - DCS - PLAY (which in turn starts SteamVR).

Dude, did you ever get your performance problem fixed? I know's it's been over a year but for me I had the same issue when I had reprojection switched on in WMR AND motion smoothing FORCED/ENABLED in SteamVR. I fixed it by disabling motion smoothing in SteamVR and only using the WMR reprojection to motion vector. Terrain shadows off made also a big difference for me.

Does anybody know what setting I need to change to DISABLE cockpit illumination/reflections from terrain? I have cockpit global illumination off but that doesn't make any difference. What I mean is, when I take off from Nellis in an F-16, the overall cockpit illumination seems to be a bit yellow-ish. Then as you are halfway down the runway it changes to a normal colour, the reverse happens on landing there. Normal colours on final, as you approach the threshold the cockpit seems to become more yellow.

I did buy FPSVR but haven't installed it yet. How do you turn off cliffhouse? Didn't think that was possible. EDIT TO ADD my specs: Ryzen 5900X / 2080 Super / 32 gb 3600 CL16 ram / SSD drive / Reverb G1 . Fresh windows install 20H2 with all the updates/latest Nvidia drivers.

Hi guys, I have spent the last few days trying to optimise my settings and I am at a point where I have found a nice balance between image quality and performance. The one strange thing I have which is quite pronounced now (it wasn't as much before) is that my first mission from a fresh game start runs really nicely, including missions in Syria or super carrier. When I exit that mission and load another one the performance is a lot worse. FPS drops to 30-ish and frame time up to 30-40 Ms. Any idea what may be causing this or what setting regulates this? I thought it was the shader cache in the Nvidia control panel but after changing that it's not the cause of it. Any ideas?

Cool, thanks for that link! I've not seen that video before. So basically, power management to max performance and maybe use ULTRA low latency and perhaps pre rendered frames to 4.

HAGS is off. But I just noticed that my advanced display settings is showing 5 monitors! 1 is my monitor...not sure what the other 4 are but I assume it's my Reverb screens. I remember removing this option 6 months ago but have since reinstalled windows. Is it called something like virtual monitors?

I just installed the shaders mod on a clean DCS install and my performance is actually worse now. Really weird, it would normally improve the performance but for some reason it makes it worse. My frame time went up from 22-ish ms to 30-40 ms (45 hz, reprojection on with Reverb G1). Am I missing something or doing something wrong? EDIT : Just figured out I had reprojection on in WMR AND SteamVR. For some reason , putting the reprojection ALWAYS on in SteamVR doesn't actually do anything. The only way for me to get reprojection to work is by putting motionvector in the WMR text file.

I've never heard if this. Does it give you better performance in DCS than when you manually tweak it?

Just tested it and the numbers i quoted are pretty close to what's possible.
