fitness88 Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 DCS.exe and Oculus.exe are both available in Nvidia Control Panel>Manage 3D Settings>select a program to customize. It's been awhile since it was determined that there is little to no advantage making adjustments because Nvidia does not see Oculus as a device. Has anything changed? Thank you.
Harlikwin Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 You can customize DCS and it does do stuff. New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.

dburne Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 I use the Nvidia Control Panel to set my profile for DCS.exe to " Prefer Maximum Performance". All other settings I do in the game GUI. Not going to do much if anything setting them in the NCP.

Harlikwin Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 I found for VR you could set FXAA, it definately works. It makes everything look blurry though.

fitness88 Posted February 23, 2019 Author Posted February 23, 2019 DCS.exe and Oculus.exe are both available in Nvidia Control Panel>Manage 3D Settings>select a program to customize. Are any of you selecting these 2 in the 'select a program to customize' or are you just relying on global settings?

fitness88 Posted February 23, 2019 Author Posted February 23, 2019 Just DCS.exe. I see no reason to set a profile for Oculus Home. I know Oculus isn't seen as a device like your display but Nvidia does allow for priorities to be set for the Oculus.exe. So I'm thinking there must be something that gets tweaked.

Drac Posted February 23, 2019 Posted February 23, 2019 If my global setting in Nvidia is set to " Prefer Maximum Performance", do I still need to set "DCS.exe" to " Prefer Maximum Performance"? Or does global take of DCS as well.

Or does global take of DCS as well. I believe Global would take effect, you can easily check it though in Nvidia Control Panel. With Global set take a look at the DCS profile and see if it says "use global setting - prefer max perf". I personally prefer setting it in profile as I do not want my PC always running full bore.

toutenglisse Posted February 24, 2019 Posted February 24, 2019 Don, you can overclock to max and set performance settings for all the time with no issue, GPUs are automatically idling (in terms of frequency and voltages) when unstressed.
Drac Posted February 24, 2019 Posted February 24, 2019 Good point on running at Prefer Maximum Performance continuously. If I am running DCS OpenBeta, what extension should I be pointing to?

Edit - nevermind think I was confusing with a bios setting regarding CPU.

toutenglisse Posted February 24, 2019 Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) Yes you're right. You have to choose an option for voltage (adaptative) if you want your CPU to run low voltages when not stressed. (personnaly I run override voltage value with "conservative" frequency and voltage, but if I was running with high values I would set an adaptative voltage) for GPU no need. EDIT : DRAC you mean the launcher you want "nvidia CP" to modify ? (if so : DCS:Blackshark(dcs.exe)) Edited February 24, 2019 by toutenglisse

No. You should see an existing profile you can manage for DCS under Program Settings in Nvidia Control Panel for: Digital Combat Simulator: Black Shark (DCS.exe).
