Pimax Play Sharpness On & OFF in DCS on the Pimax Crystal Super

[Vera_Pi]

With Pimax Play Sharpness, DCS looks sharper.

Agreed.  Updated my post on the sharpness.  PImax did a good job on their implementation in the last Pimax Play software update.

Are you using any DCS sharpness with PP?

Actually, depending on your configuration, there are now 3 places to setup sharpness:

• Pimax Play: it works only in VR and it's applied to the entire fov
• DCS: it works both in VR and 2D and also applied to the entire fov
• mbucchia's Quadviews Foveated: it works only in VR and it is only applied to the foveated region

I would like to do some tests, but my feeling is that if you enable it in PP, it's not a good practice to enable it in DCS at the same time. I have my doubts with mbucchia's QV. Any thoughts or recommendations on where should we set sharpness to achieve better quality or performance?

I ONLY have sharpness set in Pimax Play.  I turned it to 0 in DCS and in mbucchia's QV.  Seems to work great that way.

Same.

In Pimax' Crystal Super settings guide for DCS they recommend using the sharpening  of NVidia GPU upscaling.

Does the sharpness slider in Pimax Play replace, override or mirror the sharpness slider of the GPU upscaling settings in Nvidia Control Panel?
