VR Quad Views Dynamic Foveated Rendering visible artifacting - pls could you investigate

[Hippo]

@mbucchia 's quad views dynamic foveated rendering is a fantastic enhancement for getting extra performance in VR.  Unfortunately, the foveated region can sometimes be seen distinctly from the peripheral region, as if it has a slightly different shading, somewhat taking away from  its effectiveness.  According to the developer this should be fixable by ED.  Please could someone take a look into this?

The issue can be seen in the images.  A square with what appears to be a light grey outline in the centre of the 1st image.  A fairly distinctive square around the sun in the 2nd.

I am experiencing the same thing. Quest Pro, 3090, 5800x3d.

I'm experiencing this in my left eye, as if the outer lower res area is a little darker than the inner square, which makes the border of the square more noticeable.  This doesn't seem to occur or be noticeable in my right eye.

Exact same thing here, Pimax Crystal

[PawlaczGMD]

Same, the sun square thing is annoying.

Came here for a solution - instead a +1

Quest Pro, 3080Ti, i9

Same!  Was hoping for a solution, but now see it's in ED's court to fix.  OP has posted a great example of it.  Quad Views is so close to being awesome for us, I really hope ED can spend a little bit of time to fix it!

I might as well add another plus 1, i got this effect really badly at night landing on the carrier @BIGNEWY is this something that can be done "quickly" (TM... other things may take precedence) 

[BIGNEWY]

Our team have access to a PIMAX Crystal and we know we need to do some more work on quad views, I can not say when however as our VR team are very busy currently on current tasks. I will highlight quad views to the team again however. 

thank you 

[speed-of-heat]

thanks @BIGNEWY for reference we get the same problem with the Varjo as well, it works in the same way so any fix for one "should" work for the other 

[dinodna]

amazing! thanks @BIGNEWY

+1, fixed foveated rendering with G2. Also the size of the square changes with the render area size. 

[PawlaczGMD]

+1, in Pimax Crystal, the central foveated region boundary is often visible, because it seems to have a different brightness/shading. It would be great to get this fixed, as Quad is pretty much obligatory to run DCS in these high res headsets.

+1 here

[Go-Go]

6 pints of Guinness fix that seam..at least with the Quest Pro.  I'll try the Reverb in another 8...

I only see a visible square with snow for some reason. The biggest issue for me is with landscape shadows which flicker between high and low res areas. 

[speed-of-heat]

Try lights at night... Especially true on the carrier
