Updated Settings for Reverb G2 - is there a single source reference anywhere?

Great topic, my G2 just arrived as well. To set up from scratch, what’s the basic process? I don’t have the steam version of DCS. Do I need to install anything ? Or just plug and play? Talking about steam vr etc.>

 

and how can I make it so I can easily switch between using VR and 2D if I want?

You will need Steam to install Steam VR, no need to run the game through Steam or have the Steam Version of the game.

You will also need WMR for Steam VR, which you can get from the Steam store as well.

Cool, thx

@ Notso, been having trouble getting anything like the performance you describe using the same settings? My rig almost identical as well..... 

 

See Big Neweys post, he is advocating some quite different settings to you in search of better FPS, and I have tried these as well and can’t replicate his performance either....

 

I am wondering what I am missing?

 

what settings do you have in WMR portal? 
 

Thanks

I have an EVGA RTX 2080 atm, and I used the following site (see link) to try and teak everything (dunno if someones already posted this, so just in case):

How To Preflight G2 / G2 VR – Startup in DCS

 

the guide is speciafically to `try` and get the best from your rig for the G2, pretty detailed, lots of steps, don't let that put you off very easy (follow the instructions, tweak win 10 etc.), on my EVGA RTX 2080 (black non super edition, so nothing special), I can get decent frames, key is tweaking the steam VR super sampling stuff mainly imo; but with a 3080 or better (I'm currnelty hoping for a 3090 or a 3080 Ti to materialize tbh ;P) you should get faily smooth play and tracking if you have decent lighting.
