TheFreshPrince Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 This is a very subjective opinion. But from what I can see since the patch, the AIM120s are finally tracking again as they should. Thank you ED. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinder Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 I still have error messages there (right pic), I can start the game, even a mission with the Mirage F1 but still experience crashes. Two things I noticed: It might well come from Windows 10 Pro Settings, Device manager detects the Pico4 but in devices it never shows connected, I thought it was perhaps because the connection depends on Streaming Assistant being started in Windows and in Pico menu, but even with it and Stream VR on, it doesn't refresh.

Thinder Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Well, I managed a couple of test flights on the F1EE which is a progress, I can't say the same about the quality of the image and I still experience crashes, I'm trying to balance image quality and performance now without crashes (!?!)...

Dragon1-1 Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 It all ultimately depends on when the DTC will make it in, which is a core feature. MUMI is a bunch of numbers arrayed on the page, nothing special from the graphics side. It should make it in pretty quick after Viper's DTC page (also a simple affair, rather like the A-10's default MFD pages). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil 505 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 So this was performance after I started using PimaxXR combined with SteamVR as stated in the article I attached to this thread. I personally saw a significant improvement now that DCS is running OpenXR natively. I know this is subjective, but with PIMAX, I walked my wingman through the same way I did it and he to has now observed significant improvements. Prior to the update, there is no way the below video would have been captured without stutter or or at minimum, some lag. Now it runs smooth as glass. I too had issues with performance degradation when the patch released until I redownloaded PimaxXR and started running with SteamVR. This is now the way. More videos to come. For anyone with a PIMAX having issues, please hit me up and I would be glad to assist if possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinder Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) Update Pico4 user. So now I have managed to get the whole thing to work flying the Mirage 2000C and F1 for VR testings. Compared to the settings I did find before the DCS update, image quality suffers considerably, I experience a cyclic loss of clarity even with more moderate settings, mirror is unreadable with high level of pixelation and blur etc. Ticlkets were sent to Sapphire (for advise on settings) and Pico (suggesting software support). Steam VR is playing havoc as usual, if I want to watch a replay in 2D, it will start on its own, ask me to set up the room and shut down DCS if I close it, I have to uninstall it if I want to watch a replay, it will be all good the day I can get rid of it completely. In this screenshot I brake low for a spin at very low altitude where I can check visually the changes I made to my settings... The mirror remains unreadable (WTH???), level of detail cycles between good to foggy, same for details redraw, I took the pixel density levels from 1.6 to 1.2 and gained on the amount of jerkiness I experienced with environment at very low level (tree top level below hill top etc) but this is way off what I was able to achieve once but can't reproduce now, so I know my system can easily take it but something is making it impossible, I'm not sure which software limits my system potential to this level yet. AMD mentions Drivers issues... Working on it. First to reply; Pico, redirecting me to the right Dpt for technical inquiries. Edited January 30, 2023 by Thinder Win 11Pro. Corsair RM1000X PSU.

No, in any case I didn't notice too much difference, since I like to fly very low, AdlA F1CR fashion, I need to see where I'm going and what can be noticeable is the jerkiness of the close environment, I try to reduce that so that I can see clearly details 45° left/right.

Yeah, that's my conclusion as well, I'll turn all Steam VR controls off and see if it makes a difference, in any case Steam VR isn't officially supporting the Pico I'm happy I manage to get it to work at all.

VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Pico4 user here, using VD to connect. Even a reinstallation, no mods on either, the game still crashes during the initial progress bar or just right in. Not related to OXTK or OpenComposite. As mentioned in another thread, I managed to enjoy it for a while and 4 hours later, which changing anything, the game cannot start. Yesterday, I was able to enjoy a bit again in Pico4, by uninstalling and reinstalling SteamVR, but it still crashed after a couple of missions and then it could not be loaded once more. On the same computer, Quest2 runs very good without major issues. A support ticket will be raised. VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants -- this is how I fly.

On the same computer, Quest2 runs very good without major issues. A support ticket will be raised. I can tell you what I do to have it to work without crashing, I figured the order for opening apps matters: 1) You need Open XR Tool for windows open/minimized, when Steam VR starts, Open XR menu will give you the option to change Runtime, change then. 2) Launch Streaming assistant. 3) I use Steam VR Beta, I don't know if the standard version is as stable or more/less. 4) Launch Virtual desktop. At least I was able to use the headset and even fly the Mirage F1 both not supported or/and incompatible with Steam according to their tech support. When it comes to quality and FPS it's another matter altogether but at least you can run the game and try different settings, which is not happening if it crashes. Win 11Pro. Corsair RM1000X PSU.

Not wishing to derail this thread but you are confusing compatibility with the Steam version of DCS World and with SteamVR. You can use the Standalone version of DCS and the Mirage F1 (and any other module) with SteamVR, the latter is simply a means of enabling VR support and completely independent of the Steam version of DCS World. You can also purchase the Mirage F1 on the Steam store and run it with the Steam version of DCS. You can even transfer the licence to run it with the Standalone version having bought it on Steam. What you can't do is purchase modules from the DCS website and use it on the Steam version of DCS. This isn't specific to the Mirage F1 but any module - hence the "Steam Incompatible" message on every module on the DCS website store.

Well, I had enough problems trying to fly the F1 with the version of Steam VR I use to mistake the two issues. At some point even the module itself lost its authorization in the game, couldn't see it in the list of usable modules, wrote a ticket to support and reinstalled the game. I download Steam, Steam VR Beta and Virtual Desktop from the Steam website, don't have any link with the Steam version of DCS and use DCS Beta. btw, your opinions are always welcome, I still struggle to fully comprehend how all of this works (or not) together...

VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 TL;DR - same, crash, no go Long: First of all, opening OXTK does not make any sense cause the toolkit itself states it does not need to be opened at all times! Also, opening both SA and SteamVR at the same time make no sense either. But out of curiosity and the spirit of experiment, I follow the steps and well, same, the same crashed before the progress bar even was on. VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants -- this is how I fly.
