Any performance patch planned?

[giei]

I bought the Epsom campaign but it's impossible to use the Spitfire in Normandy with Oculus.

I can't reach 45 fps with a 1080ti at lower possible settings. (max 30 fps, min 18 fps)

So, any news on future patches focused on performance improvement?

Spit is the least optimized of all the modules. In addition it's not active or rearview mirror. He probably has ED a higher priority :( in the form of a Hornet.

This is a module problem and not a campaign issue.

This is a VR thing in general, DCS was not built and designed around VR, there will always be some limitations, when I got the rift, I knew it was going to be limited and more limited, as I only have a 1070 at the moment, so I only fly small missions, to keep the frames are good. There is no way I would attempt to fly this campaign in VR.

 

It will get better I think? as ED optimizes the sim for both VR and Screen, I think it will always be a balance for VR, even for the most powerful PC's around, because of this new first gen tech and how demanding it is in general. Is VR good in DCS? Yes, great experience, but never design from the ground up for VR, unlike most games in the Oculus store or small and less demanding sims, such as the car sims.

 

I would lower your expectations here a little for VR in DCS and not expect to play very large missions in VR.:)

Still, the Spitfire has the worst FPS of all WWII planes, VR or not.

Spitfire + Normandy is the only combo you can't use in vr.

I create an empty mission, no others planes or vehicles and it's impossible to get decent fps.

So, I probably bought a campaign I can't play due to complexity but at the moment I can't fly Spitfire in Normandy.

Didn't know that, interesting, thanks for posting your research link.

I use these settings HERE for playing this campaign at 1440p on a monitor, perhaps they can help you find a good balance for screen play. I would wait a bit for ED to update for VR, there is no doubt it needs optimizing across the board for VR and Screen, I do hope ED can work some magic here down the track, 2.5? :)

I already use lower settings than yours but thx for suggestion.

What's your pixel density set to? Any more than 1.4 to 1.5 and my computer starts to choke on larger missions.

Well that's not it. I have one more suggestion. Reduce your preload radius to the minimum setting. That has helped increase frame rates with my previous computer.
