DCS Graphics settings not respected in VR

[Pac-Man]

Good Day, Devs and Team!

 

So, I know everyone is complaining about the VR performance. However, after doing some testing I stumbled onto something really odd and unexpected.

 

My configuration:

i7-7700K

RTX 2080Ti

32G DDR4

DCS Installation - NVME SSD

Pimax 5k+

 

 

Following the update I am getting about 30fps regardless of location

Prior to the update, I was running fairly high DCS graphics setting. Pretty much everything on high, 1.8 PD, shadows on high.. the works..

 

In attempt to increase my frame rate today, I was playing around with settings and was noticing NOTHING was having ANY impact on frame rate OR visual quality

 

Turned PD down... no change

Turned PD up... no change

Shadows

MSAA

AA

Textures

 

Nothing was having ANY impact on performance or quality - good or bad.

 

The only setting that I noticed actually changed with very minor performance impact was Terrain Textures.

 

I'm thinking that all of the visual settings are not being applied when using VR.

It's like it's hard coded to specific settings.

 

I've noticed that MOST of the community is getting close to the same performance when in VR and thought this may be something you would want to look into.

 

I could also be completely full of crap and there's just something wrong with my installation. :)

 

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

adjusting the settings work on my end, I had to tune lower then before but they had an effect..
