  1. 1. Oculus Rift and DCS World Discussion

    • 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)

Just a update, I disabled sli and with just 1 980 I'm getting great performance and am liking this thing much more. Also I enabled 2x transparency super sampling and 4x msaa via nvidia control panel. Looks a million times better and can easily function with all systems in the a10c. Guess patience and tinkering pays off. Just wish sli would work better. Bring on Dcs 2.0!!

Ah cracking, glad you're getting it fine tuned! I may have to try your Nvidia settings to see how they turn out...

Out of curiosity what dcs graphic settings are you guys using. I'm also using sweetfx with ffxaa and other AA disabled in sweetfx.

My draw distance is down to medium and scenes down to medium

Cockpit shadows are off, and shadows on low.

512 on mfds

Tree draw distance is low around 3500 meters

Still experimenting with dcs settings trying to keep the 75 fpS most of time. I can concede that on the ground taxi is in the 60s which is no big deal.

Always wondered if that would help.

What version of SweetFX are you using and what are you doing to get it to work?

So what's the word on dk2 paired up with Dcs 2.0...? Hoping they have it working smoother! I really don't like flying without my rift...

Posted

Haven't seen any word at all other than the guy at Mudspike who flew the rift in the pre alpha of nttr. I hope it works better. I found some good settings now in current engine and is a blast to fly at night for sure.

Well I'll comment more on b lens. Up close is more clear in pit compared to A lens. But the far stuff is blurry so I take it I should stick with A lens. What have you guys found that works best for dcs world? Yes I know everybody eyes are different

Thanks rcjones - I got SweetFX installed and it makes a nice difference. Unfortunately, DCS hangs on exit with it installed so I had to remove Sweet and all of its components :(

 

I used Rise's settings file, but there is still something my installation doesn't like with it in there. I updated to the latest DCS update this morning.

hey guys, is there still big delays in the shipping of the rift or have they got that sorted now.

 

Super fast, I ordered mine on a Saturday and got it Friday.

New headset on the block from Valve and HTC...

OK,this is very interesting!

 

Consumer version out in 2015, 90 fps and quite a decent res.

 

Yep, as long as this works with DCS I may very well have to partake! I'm no Oculus fanboy, I just want a VR system that brings my gaming world to life!

If each HMD will need specific support this is gonna be a nightmare.

 

Yep, I hope they will agree on some standard otherwise we'll end up like in pre directX era where individual sound and graphic cards drivers had to be included in the games...

Helmet HUD DK2

 

Hi Guys, im currently developing a helmet HUD to easily see the most importend flight data. It already works in my debugging environment and it makes so much fun now to fly with DK2. Hopefully i can release a BETA soon. I will try to do a video this week, for now i have just two screenshots (F15 FC3).

Looks promising - the HUD is impossible to read with a VR device.

Awesome! Would it work also in just one eye to simulate what the a10c modern suites have?

The HUD is possible to read in the DK2 but you have to do some work and edit some files to crank up the font size. I fixed it for the A-10C (there's another thread about it around here somewhere) but gave up on DCS in VR. Performance was too poor. Will try again with each major new innovation - DCS World 2, VR SLI, new headsets with higher res, etc.
