Harlikwin Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 I don't really know how you guys do it, and maybe other devs can learn from you guys, but after a few weeks of playing with VR, I've found the Harrier and M2000 to be the best performing VR planes in all of DCS both in terms of frame rates on my relatively low end system but also visual quality. :) New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.

Sephroth Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 The I love the Harrier as a faster a-10c, but lately the Mirage has become my go to even over the Hornet. I do love the campaign it comes with. The only thing I don't like about these planes in VR is the weird highlighting around the switches in certain light. Other than that it's been a blast.

Yeah I've noticed that on the harrier and the UFC in the morning/evening scenarios, it does look weird/unrealistic. In general I don't like how cockpit lighting "works" in the game relative to real life in high/low light transitions but thats more a DCS in general thing vs anything specific to razbam.

I do love the red lighting of the mirage in the early morning. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
joca133 Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 I love the mirage, performance is good. However, I also find the switches very hard to see when there is a shadow or at night. I even use a custom added nightvision at times.
Harlikwin Posted January 27, 2019 Author Posted January 27, 2019 Yeah the mirage labels are hard to read in vr. But i was talkin frame rates.

Gladius Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 A cockpit update is planned for the AV-8 Harrier. This will be even better with VR. I also think the AV-8 Harrier looks great in VR, especially the MFD I can read well. What about the Mirage, is there also a cockpit graphics update planned? I have more problems to read with VR. But you just have to like the airplane.

Sephroth Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I just upgraded to a vive pro and that made a big difference. Needed to turn off shadows to keep the frame rates up, but man it looks great! Surprised how well my over clocked 1070 handles things so far, but I do plan on upgrading to a 2080 shortly. Sent from my SM-T827V using Tapatalk
IB2EZ2C Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 I found that with my GTX 1080s in SLI that if you disable your rear-view mirrors you get a 7+ frame boost with the VR Pixel Density set at 1.5 - 1.6 (I can't read the cockpit printing any lower).

IB2EZ2C Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 I had to run it in Non-SLI when I first got my Vive to work something out and noticed it ran a bit hotter and I had to drop the settings so I don't know personally. I got my first of 2 RTX 2080 ti last Friday and when the snow ever melts enough in Washington to get the second one I'll let you know the before and after frame count.
Harlikwin Posted March 5, 2019 Author Posted March 5, 2019 There are two camps on whether or not VR SLI does anything, personally I'm super curious.

aceviper Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 Yes big Kudos to Razbam for the best looking VR cockpits that are really immersive compared to others. Add to that fps optimization. They clearly lead where others should follow.
Fri13 Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 There are two camps on whether or not VR SLI does anything, personally I'm super curious. If the SLI would run so that each screen in VR has own dedicated GPU, then that would definitely increase the performance. But it doesn't go that way, so the benefits are minor, compare what you can get with other applications. i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.
