TerminatorLips Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 Hello Guys! Im thinking about picking up the Harrier. How's the performance in vr? I have the Mirage, A10, Bf109, Ka 50 and the F14. They all run great in VR expect the F14... The Framerate is terrible. Greetings
Harlikwin Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 Its quite good compared other modules. I'd say about like the mirage if anything. New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog. TrackIR, HP Reverb (formermly CV1) Old-N-busted: i7 4720HQ ~3.5GHZ, +32GB DDR3 + Nvidia GTX980m (4GB VRAM) :joystick: TM Warthog. TrackIR, Rift CV1 (yes really).
Tricky11 Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 im getting a minimum of 45fps with the rift so its as good as any other module
dannyq8 Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 +1, and I think the readability of the panels is slightly better than other modules Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something. Plato
Harlikwin Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 Yeah, honestly the harrier pit in VR is actually pretty nice to work with relative to other modules.

VampireNZ Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 Yep I agree it is pretty good. I was concerned the font size on the MFD's might make them a bit tricky to read but it is fine on the CV1 at 1.4PD. Vampire
Thudster Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 (edited) The Harrier cockpit in VR with the Reverb is one of the two best in DCS. And these two are far and away better than any others. I have no FPS impact issues with this cockpit. I do have some slow-down with the Tomcat, but that's chalked up to the systems, not visuals as far as I'm concerned. The general texture, details even down to screws are 3D and not cookie-cutter all the same. The different metals have a different texture and you can tell. Brass vs Nickel - all apparent. With good shader support and lighting (variable in DCS Beta these days, unfortunately) even the paint scrapes have depth and texture. Only the Tomcat can compare. Even the F-18 has flat textures in places especially around annunciator panels, wherein the Harrier panels have depth, texture, and some very realistic smudges. Plastic or glass looks and has a sheen that it should. When my friends want to know what VR looks like and why is it special? I put them in the Harrier. I'm amazed really - the VR cockpit for the Harrier in the Reverb is just stunning. Edited June 27, 2019 by Thudster (1AF) "THUD" | 55th FS Joint Task Force 1 | Discord
TerminatorLips Posted June 27, 2019 Author Posted June 27, 2019 Thanks so much guys! Im getting the Harrier now.
SGT Coyle Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 Anybody using the Rift? How do you like it for Harrier? If you don't mind sharing, post your settings and rate your experience 1 -7. And the other HMDs out there too. I think that would be very help full to new comers. I'd post mine , but I'm not very happy with my setup after a reinstall. Night Ops in the Harrier IYAOYAS

And the other HMDs out there too. I think that would be very help full to new comers. I'd post mine , but I'm not very happy with my setup after a reinstall. I use a rift CV1. Even on my old system performance was best with the (old) harrier. Overall its one of the better VR pits appearance and usability wise. And performance wise its very good as well.

VampireNZ Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 I use the Rift CV1 as per above, pretty nice. Have a Rift S on the way so will check out the differences a after a good length of time. I have tried the Rift S in DCS before but that was prior to getting the harrier. I found the increase in res very nice in the S. Putting the CV1 back on afterwards it was almost like the lenses were fogged or something - the Rift S was so much clearer and brighter with no god rays - was very nice. Vampire
