Hey guys, just found DCS a couple of weeks ago and have to say I am absolutely loving it. Picked up the F/A-18C module since it seemed the best for a beginner and I'm finding well worth the money. I'm running into a bit of an issue trying to record video using Oculus Mirror. Everything is smooth as butter in the headset during recording, but then when I watch it back, it stutters like crazy, I'm guessing because Mirror is rendering on the fly along with the Rift itself? I'm using right eye only, time warp off, and force 1920x1080 in the Mirror properties.
I tried turning ground clutter down to zero and trees to 50% and that helped. Reading up a bit on this thread, should I tweak my shadows and MSAA as well? I notice a difference between low altitude BFM and high altitude, so that seems to bear out the ground rendering causing stutter theory. Check it out below.
High altitude, fairly smooth
Low altitude, super choppy
