HP's Reverb VR Pro Headset

[Harlikwin]

How is Head tracking, I do not mind if it is not perfect as I am used to track IR with its amplified real head to virtual head movement.

Do any HP users fly the Kamov with its HMS targeting reticule?

Is it easier with VR?

 

I do. Its stupid easy in vr. Look n click. Head tracking in vr basically has to be perfect or it doesnt work. Track IR is a bad joke in comparison, plus its non symetric so even more unreal.

Yes, it's like flying for Real,with the Reverb, the Simshaker Software and a Motionsim, in a proper VR Cockpit.

Do someone use VR Gloves with the Reverb and DCS?

 

Btw. The blurriness is back,so you have to rollback SteamVR for a perfect Picture :

Hi Reverb owners, 2 questions:

 

 

 

1- how to remove the Windows + Y mode so that the mouse remains on the desktop and not in the HMD ? I do not know why but sometimes it is activated in flight and suddenly I can not click in the pit, I have to do alt + tab, windows + Y and return to DCS, very convenient

 

 

 

2-Have you found a setting so that it does not flash on the ground (trees, buildings etc)? because even MSAA * 2, SS 110 + PD 1.2 it always flashes a little

 

 

 

Thank you

1. black sticker the sensor

2. NVidia negative LOD - 'clamp' ON

 

2a. - Transparancy Supersampling xxxxxREPLAY_MODE ALL (to enable NEG LOD BIAS)

- Texture filtering LOD Bias DX '-1.375

 

No more DCS wave shimmer around Stennis, YMMV

NOTE: all is OFF (but PD 1.1 to trigger HP resolution) , this is for Dogfighting / BVR !

Today Valve released SteamVR beta 1.9.7 with an important change:

Skip “Advanced Supersampling Filtering” for systems which use their own compositor (e.g. WMR, Oculus). This should fix blurriness reported by WMR users.

Nothing you can do about that, gave up on that a looong time ago. My setup is for PVP, to "pretty things up" you want a 9900K CPU and a 2080Ti, nothing less.

The new graphics engine would be Aerofly FS 2, razor sharp shadows, high FPS, or even War Thunder,

DCS already has an 'outdated' graphics engine, or rather was busy with war planes, and there is nothing anyone can do about that.

Change priorities or fly MS Flight Simulator 2020 when that arrives. That looks pretty.

A super deal on an HP Reverb without controllers for seated simmers would sweet! Say $400 for the pro set...a good deal I say.

 

 

I'm waiting to see what the next gen in VR has to offer before going all in!

[speed-of-heat]

So first impressions in compassion to my O+

 

- it is way more comfortable to wear; even without the custom padding I had for the O+, this is a joy to wear

 

- my IPD is 68.5 and that seems to work well, I get some minor blurring, but nothing compared to my O+

 

- There is no screen door

 

- clarity... OMG I can read all the gauges... F-18 and F-14, I'm currently running at 180% in Steam and 1.0 in DCS with no SS turned on...

 

- slight "divers" mask feel, at the lower part of my FOV, but again nothing I can cope with

 

- performance this is good, and smooth on my spec system, 1 vs 1 dogfights are easily able to keep in 45 fps, with quite a lot of detail turned on terrain shadows mirrors etc... medium sized missions with the same settings high 30's with rain lighting etc..., but very smooth no juddering

 

- I will play with reducing some of the settings and see if that improve much

yeah and I was starting to wonder why so much people relatively were so hard insisting on that you need a 2080Ti or atleast 2080 Super for a Reverb. Shout out to the haters.

[speed-of-heat]

So there are definitely compromises to be made; to get 40-45 FPS in a "medium" mission I have these settings

 

 

I turn off Mirrors, and I don't play online, so your mileage may vary, but I am very happy with what I have

[ashwad]

In the DCS controls setup, where you can select the control sets for the different planes, select "UI Layer" and bind a keyboard shortcut or joystick button to the "Recenter VR Headset" feature (see this post with a video of what I mean). Then each time when ready in DCS after strapping on your headset, you press this keyboard shortcut to get the head position in the VR space right.

 

I have the same issue when I start DCS with my headset lying on the seat in my simpit before I get ready.

 

Strangely, my WMR controllers already have VR center mapped to the left touchpad up and Pause Menu is left touchpad down. By default these are assigned and I cannot figure out how to change it.

 

These are not settings in the simulator controls. I deleted every setting and it didn't help.

 

There has to be a config file somewhere that I need to edit.

In case you haven't done this. You only need to select "beta" in the SteamVR drop down menu and then close the active window. Then normal SteamVR will start updating itself to the beta version. To roll back just do the same, unpick the beta version in the drop down menu.

[sze5003]

Man I gotta say the reverb with the JF 17's giant screens is awesome. So easy to see and use everything there.

Really looking forward to this... I have been waiting for this for 2 years! I got the headset and am now just waiting for my VR driver system!

 

 

Do I need steam VR to run it?

I use DCS standalone only.

Yup you need

 

Steam.

Install Steam VR (I think)

Install WMR for steam VR

 

I use steam DCS so I just click on DCS inside steam and it gives options to run with the 3 different VR modes (flatscreen/Steam/occulus/WMR). Not sure how it works on standalone, but it does. I'm sure someone will be along to tell you exactly how, if it isn't as simple as just starting DCS.
