F16 - Bad Performance in VR

[DatBoiMi]

Hello all,

i recently bought the F16 Module and for some reason, my general performance in it is worse than in other aircraft.
Ive included screenshots of the FPSVR Dashboard for both the F16s and the Hornets Free Flight Scenario.

As you can see the Frames for the Hornet are much more stable when compared to the F16, which struggles to maintain a steady framerate and drops a lot of frames. I have not changed settings in between Screenshots.

Here are my Specs:

I7 8700k
RTX 3070TI
32 GB of DDR4 @3200 MHZ
DCS is installed and run from my m.2 ssd

I am playing DCS using my VR Headset (Reverb G2)

Anybody here have some pointers to why this might be? Right now its kinda unplayable

Thanks!

Hi, 

I run a reverb G2 on a much stronger system than yours and I use 60% in steam VR, its still very readable and the frametime is much better. 

Give it a go.

Hi @BIGNEWY
thanks for your reply! Will go ahead and try that.

I think ive just found out what makes me loose all these frames.
Inside the "Windows Mixed Reality Settings for Steam" under the graphics tab i switched "default SteamVR app motion reprojeciton mode" to "disabled".
After that my frametime has been much more stable.

Do you know that you have set yours to?
And do you have Motion Smoothing switched on for DCS in the SteamVR settings?

I just double checked, I have mine disabled also, Im not using any motion smoothing

IMHO try to avoid SteamVR at all cost with a G2.

Try switcihng to OpenXR, it's a night and day difference.

I've never seen any befit from motion smoothening but for me motion vector (AKA) motion reprojection which locks the frame rate at 45fps works really well. You will know its enabled when you see your frame rate is caped at 45. You can use fpsVR or hit ctrl+pause in game.

CPU times seem a little high to me, no?
