solved Black border showing on VR views.

[F18mech]

I just installed a MSI suprim 4090 with a 5800x3d. Had a 6900xt. 
I have done little to fine tune any settings within DCS but have updated DCS openbeta, OpenXR, openXR toolkit and the developer tool app.  Settings I have tried changing are  Nis, FSR, CAS and none. Fixed foveated view was off and tried it on the preset wide setting. Resolution was always set at 100% in openxr.

Uploaded a photo of the screenshot with the black border. The border can be seen within my headset at I look towards the edges. The border does not appear in the main screen of DCS or when scrolling through the mission/ campaign folders

Any ideas of the causes and fix.

Looks like you have incorrectly adjusted the mask parameters, I would suggest running a repair.

I will check the settings on mask. If it has not moved any I will Then perform a repair. I don't recall making any adjustments in dcs.  

Thanks for reply..

the mask is found in the main game directory , Bazar\Shaders\HMDMask.fx

 

about line 62 you have this:

 

float4 vsOctagonMask(in float2 pos:POSITION0): SV_POSITION0
{
	return float4(pos, 1.00, 1.00);
}

if either of those values are above 1 , you start getting effects like this

I'll check it this evening when I get off of work. I will let you know...

[F18mech]

This was in position 62.   

 

float4 vsOctagonMask(in float2 pos:POSITION0): SV_POSITION0
{
    return float4(pos, 1, 1);
}

I performed a repair again on DCS and did that did nothing to the issue. I edited the file to .1 ,  .1 vice 1, 1 and the black mask border is gone. 

 

Thanks for your time in guiding me to the file and the specific data set..
