Vulkan is a alternative to DirectX. A software interface that enables applications (application layer) to „talk“ to the hardware in a standardized way without actually addressing it directly. Vulkan is supposed to have less overhead and being „faster“. DCS is a DirectX11 Application. Re-composing it for Vulkan is quite a task and ED is working on it for some time now.

Will there be no OpenVR at all or not yet? Wouldn't there be any post-processing capabilities with DLSS or Vulkan? Reshade gives the ability to make the picture much sharper than OpenXR toolkit. Especially for people with not so good eyesight.

I would wait a little and see what options DLSS and other features bring to DCS settings that could help. 1 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?
