null@Mr_sukebe Are you using a special version of DCS?  No slider under Enable HMD Mask...

Try loading DCS itself - and then going into the settings. It may be that the slider never made it to the launcher?

The slider is above the switch:

null

[WipeUout]

Yes but that is the MSAA mask slider, which is only working if you use MSAA as your AA method and useless for other method such as DLAA. 

 

@Mr_sukebe, I suggest you add MSAA between ''VR'' and ''Mask'' in you first post (VR DCS Settings) to avoid confusion with VR mask that is also an option, but in other settings such as in Pimax play (called ''Hidden Area mask'').  Very nice post on settings BTW!

Well I have discovered with my gear in Sig and a Reverb G2 when I set the Global rez to 80% and game app to 80% DCS Runs fine in VR. If I set other then that say 90/80% or even 60/60% I get stutters. I have asked why the G2 seems to do that in my thread but if you get stuttering at 100% Rez in VR try lowering the resolution I guess especially in the G2..

 

Unknown why the G2 does this but I am near flawless with Spikes and Frametimes at 80/80%..

Well I had alot of succes with the oasis driver and using win 11 24h2. but you never know. Depends on your hardware.. if you have newer gear maybe worth an upgrade.. you may or may not experience issues hard to say unless you try it.

If I understand, as a quest3 user, VirtualDesktops VDXR for vr is my best option.

Thats what people say, but I’ve had tons of success with an aftermarket link cable that also charges the headset myself

Does VirtualDesktops VDXR have to be purchased?

Does it give better performance in DCS than the Quest Link app?

Yes. You buy VD in the Quest store in your headset, and then install the free Windows streamer app on your PC.

Can do, once I switched I've never looked back. And doesn't have the continual problems that plague a lot of folk with the Meta app. Need a dedicated router beside you for best results, but there are adapters etc. if your Wifi isn't quite up to it. Really feature rich as well and super easy to use.
