Could you please make decent tooltiptexts for the various options, explaining what they are and what they do instead of just repeating its name? Would be nice to know what SSS and all the other crap means and if it conflicts with other options.

It would also be nice to know if the resolution has any impact on VR?
Or is it that I can set my monitor resolution to a minimal 1024*768 to boost VR performance, since DCS has to run "double" - so to say.

There are tooltips already with explanations? Just hover over the text in stead of the pulldown menu's and such.

Most of these are common to PC gaming and can be found in a search. I would also note they’re described in the game manual. But that might not be up to date for some recent changes  

The new 2.9 ones have an FAQ here.

I understand this has no impact on VR, the screen image is merely a repeat of the HMD so DCS isn’t running double.

The problem with this is that it is impossible to 'hover' accurately enough using an HMD to trigger the tips.  Works fine in 2D with a mouse, but not in VR, so a VR-only user might not realise they are already there.  It would be nice if there was a higher tolerance for the cursor position for VR users.

Cannot agree. The mouse works exactly the same in VR in DCS menus. Or do you mean VR pointed HMD center with mouse click bound to other controller?

Yes, I mean using the HMD as a pointer, click with the HOTAS.  The mouse works fine, assuming it is within reach (personally I don't use it).
