DarkStar79 Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 Is it possible somehow to only have the top mirror turned on? instead of all 3? I guess it takes more CPU power the more mirrors you have turned on? I play only in VR and to have all the mirrors turned on takes to much CPU power. But i really want to use the mirrors, espacially in a dogfight, but its almost impossible cause of the CPU it takes. Is there maybe a mod you can make to have the 2 sidemirrors turned off? If not maybe HB can think of that as an option later?
Devil_Lettuce Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 The mirrors aren't for gaining a tally in a knife fight, they're for watching a wingman in formation and control surfaces. If you can see a bandit in your mirror, you're toast.

If not maybe HB can think of that as an option later? I asked the same question some time ago...: Unfortunately not. The cost induced by mirrors is a completely separate renderpath to render the game world from the ground up but in a different perspective (rear facing "camera"). It's only rendered once for all three mirrors (which are then placed appropriately on the rendered texture). Thus, limiting to just one mirror would not have any impact. This need to re-render the world might be introducing new bottlenecks based on your system, hence why it hits your frames so hard.
