Pimax Play Custom Profiles.

Appears to not be working. I typed DCS into the little search window (next to the drop-down where it says Common Settings), hit enter and nada. I can't figure out any alternative process for it.

I haven’t done this. I change things globally each time But check this out, is this the solution? At about 3:35 into the video:

Otherwise an excellent video. I followed it, and my DCS has never before been so smooth - even with my less demanding headsets. Only thing I changed was to go for 72 hz so that could bump things up even more and still hit the target fps.

Thanks PD, that got it!

Cool.
May I ask, what are your settings for Brightness and Local Dimming in Pimax Play for DCS? I think DCS (and MSFS 2024 for that matter) are very bright, and perhaps could use some more contrast - at least for daytime. I have reduced brightness to 99 like in the video above I posted. Local dimming I have set to max. I reduced the gamma from 2.2 to 2.1 in DCS graphic settings, which I think gave the picture some more contrast, darkened a little bit. Tallymouse says in his video that it is bright "up there".. and yeah - guess so. But I'd like to know other Super owners settings, how they handle "all that brightness"

I hadn't played DCS for a couple of months and after updating it I noticed it was looking very washed out in the OG Crystal. That improved a bit with the Super (all stock settings). IL2, on the other hand, superb levels in all regards.

Ok, I have an IL 2 version... not played it for years! What version should I look for ?

Can't really make sense of that. Is the one you have on a disc or did you download it from their site? The current one is IL2 Battle of Stalingrad, with a whole bunch of DLCs that provide a lot of maps and planes (Moscow, Kuban, Normandy etc etc). They're all available on Steam too, though if you buy direct the devs get a lot more of the moolah.

Many times I don't make sense - wifey says too ...  so.. Well, I did a search in Steam Store, and a whole bunch of IL-2 games/versions/or addons (I don't know what the differences are) came up in a long list. So that confused me.

Anway, got the Stalingrad game from Steam long time ago. So, I will install that one later.  Thanks!
