Kallio Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Not sure if these two are related, but some shadow problems with my Valve Index too. Check the shadow between infantry men. When I'm looking straight at it, it's blurry and missing parts. When looking away from it, it becomes sharper but still missing details Ryzen 7 7700X /w Fractal Design Celsius S36 AIO - MSI X670E Carbon Wifi - MSI RTX 4090 Supreme X - G.Skill Trident Z5 64gb 6000mhz CL32 DDR5 - Valve Index VR - Acer Predator XB271HU - TM Warthog HOTAS /w VPC Mongoost CM2 base - MFG Crosswind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallio Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Recorded short demonstration of that shadow bug in vr with Index. Also notice the water glitch at the end of the recording. Should I make a whole new thread of this VR shadow issue (+ water) or? 2023-06-09 11-00-56.mkv Ryzen 7 7700X /w Fractal Design Celsius S36 AIO - MSI X670E Carbon Wifi - MSI RTX 4090 Supreme X - G.Skill Trident Z5 64gb 6000mhz CL32 DDR5 - Valve Index VR - Acer Predator XB271HU - TM Warthog HOTAS /w VPC Mongoost CM2 base - MFG Crosswind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[VEAW] Pims Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 (edited) @Flappie yes it's only on MT. I play for month on basic version due to these shadows too Same as other one, i have a multiscreen conf (3 little MFD) Edited July 5, 2023 by [VEAW] Pims 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flappie Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Sorry, I promised I would test this in order to report it, but I got busy with other stuff. I've just plugged in my wife's monitor to my PC which makes me a potential multi-monitor DCS user. Woohoo! Hoepfully, I'll get it to work in no time thanks to @Saruman's guide. Ill let you know what I find. Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 OK, I'm now able to run DCS in a multi-monitor configuration and it feels great. However, I cannot reproduce the issue for now.

Uefix Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I've just updated to the latest beta version and can confirm that i still isn't fixed when running in MT mode. I have a multi-monitor setup with exported MFDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I don't have any exported MFDs. Maybe that explains why I can't reproduce the issue. Do I need a third screen, then?

Saruman Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I don't think you need a third screen. I'm playing with shadows off since I had the problem and it runs fine without shadows and multisampling filters.Inviato dal mio BLA-L29 utilizzando Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 (edited) Then we need to compare our settings/hardware. I'm using a GTX 1080 Ti. I attach my options.lua along with my monitor setup. If everybody here does the same, maybe we'll quickly find what you have in common that I don't. options.lua 2en1.lua Oh wait, I just saw @Coug4r's post. I'll try that.

Flappie Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Apparently, changing the value of "x" alone does not provoke the bug. 2en1_x150.lua Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) Even when using @Saruman or @Coug4r monitor preset files, I cannot reproduce the bug. I also moved my second monitor to the left of my primary monitor, to no avail. I'm open to suggestions.

wheelie Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I have 3 monitors attached for 2d DCS, 1 @4k and 2 @1080p.

Coug4r Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Ok so no AMD/NVidia problem then. I might as well post logs from both versions, there are some differences apart from the CPU-Core/Thread info. For example the entry 'VISUALIZER (Main): cascade shadows init (preset:'default' quality:4 layers:4 size:4096)' doesn't show up in the MT version and there are some other differences. dcs_MT.log dcs_ST.log - If man were meant to fly he'd be filled with helium.
