[vracan]

Has anyone tried latest nvidia drivers 391.01 in DCS (using oculus VR)??

 

Edit: all is good with me with 391.01

No problems here. Similar performance to 388.71 for me.

[johnco61]

I found the performance to be better

[Rocky49]

nothing but freeze after freeze for me had to revert back

Stutters for me. Reverting back.

[funkyfranky]

HMD (Rift) black outs. Reverted back to 388.71

Are we just reporting on the Rift here?

[Wicked.-]

I am.

I just tried the 391.01 drivers but I do not notice a difference between these and 388.59. I still experience ghosting when flying fast or looking at other aircraft flying fast. Are there any particular settings to eliminate/decrease ghosting?

Oculus itself was reporting an issue with either 390.77 or 390.65, once I updated I couldn’t even use oculus home, it would stutter and restart every 5 secs. Oculus said we had to revert back, so I went back to 388.43, the last working driver I had.

 

I think the question is whether 391.01 solves this? The answer appears to be... maybe. Background on the oculus forums:

It appears the only surefire working driver right now is 388.59 or earlier, but results vary. I may update and see, I can always revert back if necessary.

Odd, at least for me I had no troubles with the latest drivers.

I am running on the Oculus Public Test Channel though...

OK Op here,

I installed 391-.01 and all is good for me.

That is ASW side effects. You can try to disble ASW, which should eliminate that but then probably introduce judder. Your actual source of the problem is probably your graphics and/or cpu bottlenecking.

[hannibal]

so far 391.01 is working for me.

as someone mentioned before, try to use guru3d's DDU to make a clean unnstall in safemode

[Sandman1330]

I upgraded to 391.01, it solved the problem I was having with 390.77. Seems to work well.

I use the Oculus Tray Tool to make sure ASW is off everytime I run DCS. So that can't be the issue. I'll try to lower some settings.

If your fps are below 90 you get ghosting/double image on the fast moving object - like an airplane. The lower the fps, the worse the problem.

[Cibit]

I tried the latest drivers yesterday. No issues with the rift at all.

[Spetz]

Same, no issues on 391.01 for me.

Ah ok. Thats good to know. You'll never hit 90 fps flying DCS. :)

True, but with the nature of modern air combat it is not a huge problem anyway. In IL2 it absolutely is a massive problem, but in DCS I am content with 45fps with ASW :)

It would appear I spoke too soon.

 

391.01 brings back the bug where Oculus home crashes every 5 seconds.

 

Oculus software has had a very bad track record of late... I've wanted to hold out for CV2 before upgrading to a newer generation headset, but the Samsung Odyssey or Vive Pro are starting to look pretty good...

Ah yes thought I was going mad. Then I am not a lone. Oculus crashes every five seconds indeed.

 

Edit: Looking at the Vive Pro too.

I installed 391.01 yesterday. Flew a 2.5 hour mission. No issues. Flew rather smooth.
