Wolf8312 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Just updated to 1.5.6.4546 but the performance was so terrible in VR I am going back to 1.5.6.3930, which still had some problems but wasnt as bad as this latest one in which I guess clouds are a big problem again. Anyone recommend me the most stable version in VR that includes the Viggen? Kinda always update hoping that the VR will have become more stable but it seems more likely to make things worse and is kinda frustrating. When we get to the big merge and 2.5 is released are you guys expecting the VR experience to have much more improvement and optimization performance wise? ------------ 3080Ti, i5- 13600k 32GB VIVE index, VKB peddals, HOTAS VPC MONGOOSE, WARTHOG throttle, BKicker, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf8312 Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 Cant seem to roll back to the old version in the DCS updator tool, I try to use 'update to user specific version' and type 1.5.6.3930 into the box, but it just keeps saying 1.5.6.4546 is up to date. I've tried selecting release build, open beta, open Alpha and just not checking those particular boxes. Anyone know what i'm doing wrong? ------------ 3080Ti, i5- 13600k 32GB VIVE index, VKB peddals, HOTAS VPC MONGOOSE, WARTHOG throttle, BKicker, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mule Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Just a though. Have you made any adjustments to any files such as graphics config to get better visuals outside of the DCS settings prior to updating? If so then those files will have reverted back to the default. If that makes sense? It's just that some people do changes in other files that can help with overall performance. Reducing the amount of buildings drawn, trees etc (someone did a video on how to do this) Anyway like I said just a thought. Fighter Pilot Podcast.

Cibit Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 The latest release version gave me better performance than the previous build. The update was available on Friday to co-incide with the Argo campaign for huey. I was able to increase shadows and actually got better frames with 16Q MSAA and 16xAF with a PD of 1.5 although I used the oculus tray tool to try 2.0 PD which was smooth too. 45FPS steady with these settings although the trade off was medium view distance, but since I fly mainly choppers its not too important. Oh and oculus just updated to 1.14 If you still want to revert back try https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=114030 or https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=160053 And Howdy Mule hope your still enjoying the rift :) i5 8600k@5.2Ghz, Asus Prime A Z370, 32Gb DDR4 3000, GTX1080 SC, Oculus Rift CV1, Modded TM Warthog Modded X52 Collective, Jetseat, W10 Pro 64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Adding JTAC Guide //My Vid's//229th AHB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf8312 Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 Well 2.0 is working OK but for me clouds are causing problems again with steam VR. If I disable them its OK but its still not great. The update before last clouds were doing the same thing, but the next update fixed them, and now it seems that the new update has broken them again. Rather frustrating! ------------ 3080Ti, i5- 13600k 32GB VIVE index, VKB peddals, HOTAS VPC MONGOOSE, WARTHOG throttle, BKicker, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf, I have been searching the forums to find this answer, but must be missing it somehow. How are you disabling the clouds in DCS? Probably a noob question for sure.

Wolf8312 Posted May 3, 2017 Author Share Posted May 3, 2017 You need to use the mission editior and go to weather options (cloud icon) then from there set 'cloud density' to zero ------------ 3080Ti, i5- 13600k 32GB VIVE index, VKB peddals, HOTAS VPC MONGOOSE, WARTHOG throttle, BKicker, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
