Wolf8312 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 I'm using a HTC VIVE and I've noticed that if I set the time for later in the day (5.00), that DCS looks alot better than it does if I set the time for 12-3 during which time colors look rather washed out on the VIVE in stark contrast to how they look on the monitor? Basically everytrhing is too bright. Anyone else noticed the same thing? Can just change the time I suppose but its a rather weak solution. ------------ 3080Ti, i5- 13600k 32GB VIVE index, VKB peddals, HOTAS VPC MONGOOSE, WARTHOG throttle, BKicker,
fitness88 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 You can tweak some settings in your Nvidia control panel, there's een a few postings of how to access your card controls and which settings will work, apparently the 3d settings won't have any affect. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=184259&highlight=vibrance
Wolf8312 Posted March 17, 2017 Author Posted March 17, 2017 Aw man your a lifesaver! How can I not have known about this till now! Should be a sticky at the top of the VR forum in large capital letters! Its like I've gone over the rainbow and finally have color. Anyone who hasnt done the HDMI trick and altered their settings in the nvidia control panel needs to do so right now! Thanks man, gonna play in real color now! It was somthing I just kind of got used to but it bugged me like crazy that what I could see on my monitor was nothing like I could see in VR. ------------ 3080Ti, i5- 13600k 32GB VIVE index, VKB peddals, HOTAS VPC MONGOOSE, WARTHOG throttle, BKicker,

My pleasure enjoy! I know how you felt before the tweak as I too felt there was too much difference in the eye candy between monitor v. Rift. I've been in touch with a couple of Oculus techs and was told they are working on better integration between video card and Rift.
Wolf8312 Posted March 18, 2017 Author Posted March 18, 2017 I'm actually on a Vive my friend! I feel like I've bought a new headset it's so much better! It is kind of strange that the default Vive/rift experience would be so washed out though! There should be more info on the forum about this to notify others like me as the default color is frankly abysmal if playing at midday, it makes everything else like the shimmering and low resolution look worse as well. What a huge upgrade! Everyday my VR experience improves, either due to new updates of steam VR or innovations, or just as often because I find things out like this. Shadows too no longer seem to cause fps problems though haven't tested it enough to be certain yet. ------------ 3080Ti, i5- 13600k 32GB VIVE index, VKB peddals, HOTAS VPC MONGOOSE, WARTHOG throttle, BKicker,
fitness88 Posted March 19, 2017 Posted March 19, 2017 Also there is the Oculus debug tool that I'm about to install...hearing good things about it.
