boedha68 Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) Dear heatblur, The F-14B is a real FPS killer in VR, much more then other aircraft. I hope you aware of it!

Sn8ke_iis Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Wow guys really? I've gotten a few frame rate drops as well with TrackIR. I turned down some of my settings compared to other modules. This is normal. She's not going to come out of the oven perfect on the first day. We might get a hotfix before the next update, but "2 weeks" definitely applies here.
Eldur Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 I don't even have VR and it went down to 20fps several times in no action zones. Well, a 3570K and a 1080 just don't cut it and I knew that. No reason to call for a refund though.
sirrah Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Maybe try and fiddle with settings a bit? No issues here in VR (only played offline though).

Mud Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Odd, the performance on my system is similar to all other modules I own. Steady around 45fps with pd 1.2 and most settings high incl shadows.

Galf Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Guys, it was known that this module would be heavier than the F-18 by a small margin. VR is really hardware intensive, use your brains... it's not heatblur's fault! The plane is really well optimized, but they can't do magic!

That's cute, but I bought it from Steam. They have their own refund policy.

REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Try turning off mirrors. I gained 20+ fps by it. Not in VR though.

If you aren't interested in helping the developers troubleshoot and test why are you playing an Early Access module on OpenBeta? I play at 4096x2160p with almost everything maxed except the cinematic stuff. I turned down my mirror from 1024 everyframe to 1024 and lowered my MSAA setting from 4x to 2x. Not a big deal it's the first day. Edited March 13, 2019 by Sn8ke_iis
Harlikwin Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) Look... I can run it in VR... I'm running a 980m on 4720 laptop... Its not great, but it does run sorta.

Boris Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 I have significantly worse performance in VR in the F-14, almost to the point where I'd say it's completely unplayable. I tested multiple other aircraft on the same version and these perform as before. Even rolling graphics options right back to minimums doesn't help. I also tried deleting metashaders and fxo, reinstalling the NVidia drivers and tweaked various nVidia, pitool and steamVR settings, all to no avail. I'm using the Pimax 5k+ by the way. It's a shame, but I'll be unable to fly the F-14 until it's optimised.

Whoa, whoa, if you have custom missions, skins, mods, etc. that's where they are kept. I have mods and work built up in that folder that would take weeks to replace. I keep it backed up on a separate share drive as well. Deleting FXO and metashaders folders are fine though.
