VALVE INDEX / MT BETA Questions

[Turnip]

 

I run a Valve INDEX. I am having issues and was wondering what your thoughts are.

I am using OpenXR toolkit and of course, I need to use Steam. I am using the Multi Threading BETA. I have the settings in DCS set to the recommended settings from here. DCS VR Settings & Optimization Guide (2023, Patch 2.8 Multi-threading) - GamersByNight

I have STEAM set as the CURRENT OpenXR Runtime. My first question is "Are the settings in the STEAM VR BETA ( Inside the STEAM App ) still used? In other words, if I am using OpenXR Toolkit, what effect does the STEAM VR BETA settings have on the sim? Are they overridden by OpenXR? I am using 120hz refresh rate in SteamVR with motion smoothing turned off and I am getting stutters and some noticeable lag. I have adjusted terrain settings etc in DCS and still have this happening. Any suggestions on what to set the SETTINGS to?

Secondly, what do you suggest I set my OpenXR Toolkit settings to? 

My system Specs: 

Operating System: Windows 11 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 22621)

i9-12900K, ~3.2GHz

DX12 32MB RAM

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti

According to this topic, you're better off running native openvr... while it lasts. This might be obsolete now, though.

As I posted in other thread, just tried the current openbeta (2.8.3.38090) and I was pleasantly surprised by the performance I was getting in F18 on Caucasus free flight. From the settings you posted I have visibility at least High but MSAA off, clouds standard and anisotropic filtering 8x. I didn't install any OpenXR things though, just running with --force_enable_VR (so not forcing openxr). It seems to work.

How do you make it run OpenVR instead of XR?
