Vr Colors "Washed Out"

[mkel2010]

I built a new system for playing DCS in VR which incudes an RTX 5070 Ti OC graphics card. When flying in the F16 and there are clouds/haze in the background, I find the HUD colors to be washed out and difficult to see. I've played with the Gamma setting (currently at 1.3) and while it helps, it really darkens everything else. Are there any other settings in VR that can address this issue?

Lets try to solve this like a qualified tech support agent.

1) Are you using Vr or are the colors washed out on the monitor?

2) Did it ever work correctly? if so when? What changed?

3) What Vr head set are you using?

1 & 3: Meta Quest 3 (VR)

2: New system, but I had a similar issue on the old system with a RTX 3060 Ti card. On the old system, resetting Gamma pretty much took care of of it.

I dont know anything about the quest 3.

But it sounds like you found a reasonable setting with the old system and now you are using the same HMD on the new system but it doesn't look as good (washed out colors)

Did you have any adjustments outside of whatever software the Q3 uses or DCS... for example NVIDIA control panel? maybe those are missing since the new computer

Does the Q3 plug into the computer? are you using the same cable in the same type of port?

The gamma was set in DCS? Does the HMD respond at all to the changes you make now to the Gamma slider? Gets brighter and darker but still washed out??

I think I've resolved the issue by switching to MSAAx2 and turning off DLSS. The only things Ive set inside the NVIDIA control panel are the power setting to Performance and prerendering 3 frames. I'm using Virtual Desktop to connect. And yes, the Gamma slider does react in-game. With the changes I made today, the HUD colors are now consistent regardless of the background.
