Odd color distortion during head movement


Mordant

Recommended Posts

I don't know many correct terms for it but heres what I know and can explain:

Recently, I upgraded from a 60hz display to a 165hz display and I adjusted my display settings in Windows accordingly and it has been a wonderful upgrade. However, in DCS I have noticed a distinct color change or lag in adjustment when moving my head(I use TrackIR 5 with ProClip). It is not anything I have noticed before the change to the new monitor and I have not changed any in game settings. The artifacts only go away when I stop moving my head, and they resume when I move my head again. Moving the aircraft in game does not affect this, it is purely a head movement issue. All screenshots I have been able to gather have shown that in game there is no problem, which makes me think the game is not able to run up to 165hz(or at least thats proving to have some issues on my monitor). Average frame rate in DCS is around 110-120, however I did not think this would create artifacts if my monitor is at 165hz. Is there a certain setting I could change, or is this just a quirk of DCS?

Hello,

 

Could be a setting of your monitor in regards to its response time "overdrive" setting which results in visible artifacts (RTC errors) such as inverse ghosting
