Crystal Super, bad lenses, terrible eye tracking/foveated rendering


Recommended Posts

Posted
Hooked up my new Super today, after not being satisfied with the CL after my Pimax OG crystal broke it's cable, the Super has the exact same problem as the CL with a clear "grid" over the lenses,
 
But on top of that it's even worse, letters are blurry and has a "shadow" effect on them, even though the IPD is set to 58, like in the CL and OG, the eye tracking and foaved rendering is terrible, I'm constantly seeing flickering and low resolution always moving about even if I'm completely still, in the OG I had to really try and capture the eye tracking changes, but here it's very very obvious all the time, as move my eyes around in the cockpit in DCS, there a lot of flickering and what feels like shadows moving about. I've calibrated the eye tracking twice, with out any improvements. Constant movement and flickering even on still menu pages. in the OG there was a slight blurring effect in the peripheral view, and I had to work to see it, and any eye movement was smooth and nice. 
 
Making the eye tracking competently unusable, and just to make it worse, if I have eye tracking and foveated is rendering on, OBS won't record the headset(another problem I didn't have in the OG.)
 
I've tried other VR games, and it's not right there either, blade and sorcery, only gets me to the start, but I don't get a menu to get further, I have fish eye lens feeling in several other vr games

I had the G2 and the VR1 and just now switched to the super.

If you want really bad eye tracking use the VR1. With the super i've found eye tracking to be 100% spot on (although using DFR sometimes i feel like it needs to be faster but that could just be less than ideal DFR settings as well)

Text looks clear but Ive also noticed the sweet spot on the super is not that good its actually pretty small and does require you get a good fit with the HMD but once fit correctly its quite nice.

My big issue is Ive not be able to get the super to run stable and as such a 100% of my time has gone to troubleshooting why it keeps crashing rather than getting to fine tune it for best experience. I did just submit a ticket.

did you have any issues with the OG? DId you ever use the G2? 

Is there a VR headset that does look good to you?

what are your computer specs? 

 

I have the 13900k and a 4090 I don't have eye prescriptions and still have good eyesight. The super is by far the best looking VR headset ive ever used and Im not noticing any of the issues you've brought up. 

The grid and text issue is quite surprising to hear.

1) if you close one eye is is better?

2) if the answer to 1 is no then you should be able to photograph this issue with a ph cam or something if you do that can you post the photo? I would like to see this.
