Please add "VR friendly propeller" in specials tab

[Schmidtfire]

Dear Eagle Dynamics, please add option to use "VR friendly propeller" in the special tab column.

Current propeller does not work well in VR (45fps ASW makes the sight wobble all over the place). There are no issues with the older modules P-51D, Bf109-K4 or FW190-D9.

 

I hope that you can find a good solution for this issue and thanks for a great module!

I can't say that I've noticed this. It seems perfectly fine to me...

+1, not only for VR.

As soon as I started flying without ASW, no more issue here. But you're right ASW causes this and should be addressed.

What means 'ASW'?

What means 'ASW'?

 

"Asynchronous Spacewarp" (ASW)

 

a frame-rate smoothing technique that almost halves the CPU/GPU time required to produce nearly the same output from the same content.

Thank you for posting in the English forum.

 

VR demand 90fps. If it drop below, ASW will lock VR FPS to 45.

Still giving smooth sensation. But! ASW create small Ghosting/Mirror around edges with motion behind. Like wingtip against ground or a gun sight in front of spinning propeller.

 

Old propeller don't show much, so gun sight still look good with ASW.

"Option" to use Eagle Dynamics old style propeller (same as P-51 and Bf-109) in VR would be nice.

Yes please give us that option, flight in Spitfire VR is not good with ASW

[MegOhm_SD]

I have ASW enabled and I don't see this.

So its not everyone.

This short video might help to understand the issue.

I still prefer ASW on, because the whole picture is so much more smoother

What it looks like with the Mustang?

[Whisper]

Wow, strange, I never got this effect! I wonder what kind of settings make some of us immune to this

[USSR_Rik]

Thanks for report and video. Can you also attach dcs.log? Just 10..15 second in simple mission with ASW = ON - Spitfire air start, view on propelles (as on video).

Sorry for the late reply.

 

Here you are.

Simple mission, airstart, looking at the propeller with vr and ASW on.

I renamed the .log to .txt only.

Just to add, this is exactly as I see it with ASW, I thought all the VR guys saw this, amazing how it's not everyone! Is it related to how slow the frames are when ASW is invoked? Pretty much I have to use it to smooth the frames in VR in low FPS situations.
