cromhunt Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Oculus rift and DCS world resolution Hello:) I wonder if it's possible to change résolution of the game above 1920/1200? Because with the Oculus Rift running a game like Star conflict,resolution switching to 2688/1512 is really amazing. This kind of accuracy could be useful for cockpit instruments. see you next:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cichlidfan Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 DCS will support up to at least 4k resolution. You can manually edit that field in the options screen. How that will work with the Rift in DCS, is possibly a different question.

Frusheen Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I'm not sure if you can up the res with the current rift implementation. I know the monitor lua for example is ignored when in rift mode. With the current frame rate issues it might be hard to achieve 75fps when super sampling. __________________________________________________Win 10 64bit | i7 7700k delid @ 5.1gHz | 32Gb 3466mhz TridentZ memory | Asus ROG Apex motherboard | Asus ROG Strix 1080Ti overclocked Komodosim Cyclic | C-tek anti torque pedals and collective | Warthog stick and throttle | Oculus Rift CV1 | KW-908 Jetseat | Buttkicker with Simshaker for Aviators RiftFlyer VR G-Seat project: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2733051#post2733051 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timone1002 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 oculus rift DK2 worth it for DCS?

CookPassBabtridge Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 So to confirm the progress and to be clear, do you have SLI GTX980's running with DCS and the DK2? How is the judder? What are your graphic settings? Hi Derek I only had one card in at the time, though SLI had worked before I had the USB problem (which in any case I am starting to think is a defective mobo issue anyway). However, I have got SLI working but have no idea how to check my frame rate inside the rift. I did try to get MSI Afternburner running with it but I just got the damn black screen again. SLI made the game look incredibly smooth, but now I have smoothness, nausea has come back so I need to re-acquire VR legs. There MAY be latency, I am not sure - it looks pretty similar whether using one or two cards, though with one I get more judder I assume to do with frame rate. As stated though all settings are at maximum and that was with a 4.2-4.3GHZ CPU overclock.

Warthog_Farmer Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Hello, i was wondering if any one who has had experience using the oculus rift dk2 with dcs would recommend using it, and what the draw backs/advantages are? Hey! I bought a DK2 a couple of weeks ago to try out in DCS and a few other things. The technology is absolutely fantastic. The head tracking is fantastic without a doubt and I'm glad I had the oppurtunity to try it (and made a profit in the resale) but in retrospect I wouldn't buy a DK2 only for DCS... My greatest experience was flying the Huey low and fast or in the hover... It seemed to work fairly well. But for other aircraft I had difficulty with stuttering in the pit. It seemed the cockpit stuttered on a different schedule to the world outside stuttering - and I have a decent rig I'm not sure it was lack of horsepower causing it. I think the P51 was the worst for this nauseating effect. If you'd like the DK2 to try out all the tech demos available and just to try out the kit then by all means you'll enjoy it - but if it's mainly for DCS I doubt you will keep it for more than a few weeks (especially with the bidding war for the gear on ebay) Happy I got to try it - waiting on a release with a decent screen though...

As stated though all settings are at maximum and that was with a 4.2-4.3GHZ CPU overclock. Ok - so it seems as if the SLI is still a bit unpredictable, which is understandable. I run one GTX780 with all of the graphics to lowest and average frame rates ~60-100, but the slight judder is still evident. I use Fraps to check my framerates and recommend it.

GTX780 Classified (Non-Ti) I run everything on high and mirrors and runs at 60 most of the time. Maybe you could push a bit harder on the eye candy =p especially when EDGE comes out! Compared to my old HD7970 which struggled to push 30fps at medium and took massive stutter fits... where are you? i am in new york, would you demo your dcs rift? I'm afraid it's sold - plus I'm an entire ocean apart from you my friend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marker Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Some advice from anyone if possible please. Got myself a new Nvidia 970 G1, runs DCS exceptionally well. Now when I put my DK2 on with the 4.2(?) runtime, the oculus is detected, I can load a mission up and it auto switches to my oculus when the mission loads. The only problem I have is when I go to hit fly, nothing happens, everything is static. No response to joystick movement etc. Tried an editor mission starting in the air and I get the same response. I can hit escape and go back to the mission editor no problem. Using Nvidia latest drivers as well. Oh and for some unknown reason I cannot update via the updater, so looks like a full install is needed :( .. I would love to get the OR thing fixed before I went down that route.

Alternatively press pause break key to launch the mission (but your mouse won't work in cockpit). __________________________________________________Win 10 64bit | i7 7700k delid @ 5.1gHz | 32Gb 3466mhz TridentZ memory | Asus ROG Apex motherboard | Asus ROG Strix 1080Ti overclocked Komodosim Cyclic | C-tek anti torque pedals and collective | Warthog stick and throttle | Oculus Rift CV1 | KW-908 Jetseat | Buttkicker with Simshaker for Aviators RiftFlyer VR G-Seat project: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2733051#post2733051 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OR does actually work, I can move my head around etc and it tracks no problem at all, the view from 5000 feet inside an A10 is amazing, just no movement at all :( The funny thing is, if I view a AI pilot, it all works well on the OR.

CookPassBabtridge Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 To those getting frame rate judder, if you haven't already and have the cooling / guts / experience to do so, try an overclock on your CPU. I was absolutely stunned at the difference in smoothness it makes, and in fact it wasn't my SLI 980's at all giving me the nice frame rate - it was the 4.3GHz I was getting at the time with my 5820K. The moment I went back to stock settings, but SLI (or even one card only for that matter), the judder was back.

battguano Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Cook, are you running at 4.3 now or that was the stock speed? if it was, what did you O/C it to? I have an unlocked 3570k and am running at 4.5ghz now but am sure I could go higher if I wanted to play with voltages. It was just easy to get it stable at 4.5.
