[Bug] Runway and terrain lighting anomolies with pimax 8kx in large FoV

[FoxTwo]

With the FoV set to large, there are flashing lighting streaks and anomalies with all terrain lights at night/dusk/dawn. Including airports and cities.

 

Setting the FoV to "Normal" in pitool makes the issue go away.

Most of the real craziness happens in the right eye only, but both are flashing random light rays all over the place.

 

I managed to get some screenshots of one of them in action. My head wasn't moving much in this shot, but the light streaks were dancing around like a disco ball.

I know I'm probably like... one of three people playing DCS with an 8KX this is happening too, and I have a workaround (lower the FoV), but it'd be nice if this could be fixed.

thank you. been trying to find a solution and googling for over an hour. about to try you lower FOV and see if that helps.   Really hard to fly a night mission.

Did you restart steam VR when you changed it?

Running in "Normal" fixed it for me, but the aspect ratio doesn't change unless steamvr is stopped and restarted.

Hi

please let us know your system spec and which headset you are using. 

Also take a screenshot of your DCS settings page so we can check the same. 

thank you

Oh hey my bug report is about to have an anniversary. I'll have to put something on my calendar.

Still a problem with the current version. Large FOV causes massive distortions with the Pimax 8kx
