    • 599$ did not faze you, and YOU PRE-ORDER IT!
    • 599$ puts me into bankrupcy - I will not spend that kind of money - WILL NOT BUY
    • on the fence, will BUY LATER (at retail launch)

I have seen the posts disappear, twice. Just sayin'

 

 

I see, I didn't know they had been taking them down.. I suppose if they want to they can although I never understand why anyone would police someone else's rules when they don't care enough to worry about it themselves. anyhow… :)

Hey Wood,

 

What are you flying with these days? I love the Rift if I could get it running smoothly... I can deal with the lower res.

Hey Wood,

Can you tell me your settings please. I love playing Assetto Corsa with my DK2, but my DCS dosent look good on my PC.

just got my DK2.

 

First, it feels amazing! But, my screen looks more like 640*480 instead of 1920*1020...

 

this is what I expected:

 

and see screenshot of what I get? Any tips?

Hey, so someone DID see my video :)

 

Yep, looks like your game isn't running at 1920x1080. Did you remember to change it in the settings?

yes, game is in 1920*1080. rift res does not change, no matter what res I select in game

Check the Rift's resolution through windows (right click on desktop) and make sure it is set to 1920x1080. You'll need to be in extended mode, not direct.

Sometimes you can make it work as secondary, sometimes not. I can't remember how mine was set up at the time, but often I have to do one or the other to make a program work.

 

If you run the game and it shows up on your main screen, you'll have to set the rift as Primary, sadly.

Something is going seriously wrong then, because if Windows says it is running at 1080 and it isn't...

 

When you are not in-game and you look at your desktop background through the rift, does it look low res too?

 

Also, just in case, make sure you're running the latest SDK software and that you've updated your firmware.

well, im talking about oculus in general.

 

you cant talk about DCS now because the current DCS engine isnt going to optimized until the release of DCS World 2, and the methods to enhance reading depends on supersampling techniques on top of the new optics thats going to be in the consumer version... the DK2 does not have improved optics..

 

 

THERE IS SOME HOPE FOR RIFT USERS TO READ GAUGES! :)

seems I found the trick.

 

I've set Monitor and Rift and game to 2540*1440, Rift samples down and voilá, a nice picture!

Thanks for the tip!

Tried it out and now way easier to read the instrument, even the HUD is quite readable now.

For some reason I also have less stuttering now aswell.

Makes me wish I didn't cancel my order months ago lol. What's the hit on frame rate? And is that by using nvidia dsr?

nice setup and fotos!

 

how is the game play?

is it smooth?

do you get judder?

 

i cant wait for DCS world 2 to come out and to be optimized,

and i look forward to oculus rift being a 1440p / 2K screen- i cant imagine how 4K supersampled to 2K will look!

 

they (reviewers of oculus) say that 1080p or 1440p screen (instead of a 2160/4K screen) might be the de facto for the consumer version because not ALL computers can handle a 2160p / 4K video out put...

and obviously, oculus wants it for the masses! (although 8K supersampled to 4K must be insane!!!!!!)

Rift is now set up and running very well. Spotting air targets is no issue, ground targets a big no-no. Dog fighting is incredible as you have to move in a 1:1 ratio. WWII fights ends up in sitting 170°deg to your keybord and you shoot the enemy down within 10min or your neck et tiered! THIS IS JUST INSANE GOOD!

 

I'll attach some screens, rendered with 2560*1440 and downsampled to Rift display. Enjoy
