dburne Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Hey gang, So I was out of the game for several weeks after undergoing spinal surgery. Been back now for bit. Anyway something I have been meaning to ask, what happened to VR performance in the Persian Gulf? Flying the Hornet off the Super Carrier. Used to be I had lower framerates when on the carrier going through startup, then after the launch and airborne fps would increase. That is no longer the case for me, my fps stays about the same both on the Supercarrier and airborne flying over nothing but water. Now granted I am enjoying the more consistent framerates especially as they are still high enough to give me a decent experience , but just curious as to the why?

Gripen 4-1 Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) 2.8.1 happened with new lightening and dynamic weather........ CPU frametimes are up to 4 ms higher now, performance loss is noticeable even with top tier hardware. The whole journey goes in the wrong direction! If this goes to stable branch, we (VR users) are sold.........

Burt Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Yeah I think it’s the new lighting and shadows are broken. I have disabled terrain shadows. It’s terrible over that palm island area. Kinda sad but it is what it is.

Gun Jam Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Ive noticed this as well. I assumed it was the lights but they aren't even visible in VR above 25 or 30k feet. They did all this work but there is no visible change in common scenarios due to draw distance just like before Its just a sea of blackness. If they aren't being drawn why would they still be effecting performance? Is it doing all the calculations for it so that it can produce the effect but then doesn't bother to actually draw the image?

freehand Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) Take another little piece of my VR performance now, baby (whoa, break it) Break another little bit of my VR performance, now darling, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (whoa, have a) Have another little piece of my VR performance now, baby, hey You know you got it, ED, if it makes you feel good Edited December 22, 2022 by freehand 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dburne Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Well luckily at least on my end even though lower fps and higher frame-time performance is still acceptable for me. 1 Don B EVGA Z390 Dark MB | i9 9900k CPU @ 5.1 GHz | Gigabyte 4090 OC | 64 GB Corsair Vengeance 3200 MHz CL16 | Corsair H150i Pro Cooler |Virpil CM3 Stick w/ Alpha Prime Grip 200mm ext| Virpil CM3 Throttle | VPC Rotor TCS Base w/ Alpha-L Grip| Point Control V2|Varjo Aero| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
