  • Play back at 1440p for best quality. The recently released PMDG 737-700 is put through its paces in Virtual Reality using the HP Reverb G2 headset in Microsoft Flight Simulator. As the most complex aircraft released for MSFS so far, can it perform in VR? Smooth as silk or will it be a stutter fest?

    Quite a few questions on performance related issues so here are my approximated results (MS GAME BAR).
    Southend to Bristol (both payware PilotPlus) - 33 FPS average (Settings Ultra/High mainly) Live weather - scattered clouds.
    Toronto to Matha's Vineyard (Burning Blue Design) Early Evening preset weather (scattered clouds-Night Landing) - 35 FPS average
    Geneva to Brussels (Aerosoft), Live weather - a little drizzle on departure then mainly few clouds, clear on landing - 30 FPS average

    I have now done 12 flights in the PMDG 737-700 using the Varjo Aero. I have a beefy system with RTX 3090.
    I am VERY happy to confirm that I have not noticed any stutters whatsoever! Indeed the smoothness is no different from flying the C152!
    I flew from Innsbruck to Rome this evening and the performance was just stunning!
    I am absolutely thrilled with this aircraft. Hands down the best aircraft in MSFS (certainly in terms of airliners which is my thing) and worth every penny!

      I have, quite recently with the Quest 2. Performance was absolutely fine with a RTX3080, but I didn't like not being able to use the touch controllers. They worked for buttons but not for knobs, throttle, yoke, etc. So having to find physical keys, my mouse and joystick was a challenge sometimes when you got a headset in front of your eyes.

    Hey again! Thanks for passing it along. I’ve been waiting to try vr but had some eyeball procedures done the last few weeks. Just through with final (ten minutes ago!) and I’m probably ready to try once the medicine wears off. So, looks fantastic! My 8700k 3080ti should fair well hopefully. It has so far in other ac. I’ll probably lower my settings a wee bit. Thanks for your work and look forward to more of your brilliant vids! Cheers!

    I have an i5 9600k and an RTX 2070 and the PMDG in VR is incredibly smooth. Just as smooth as the default aircraft. My settings are a mix of medium and high and I usually fly to large payware airports with heavy AIG traffic.

    Seriously thinking of adding this to the (virtual) hangar for VR VATSIM flying.... the lack of an EFB is a bit off-putting, but with the Navigraph charts in VR and with the ingamepanels PDF viewer for looking at the SimBrief-generated OFP, I think it's a strong contender.... I have a Quest 2 with an i9-9900 oc'ed to 5GHz and a 3080 Ti. With my rig setup I can lock in to 36 FPS (half my 72hz refresh rate) consistently with no stutters in the Fenix.... So yeah, I think I'm going to pick this up. I miss not having a 73 in MSFS. Was flying the Zibo 738 a ton in VR on VATSIM in x-plane, so this may scratch the itch.

    How does it feel, Mark? Does it feel like you are actually in the cockpit? Does the landscape feel tangible, is the 3D and spatial experience noticeably higher in VR than in 2d or using an IR tracker (like I do )? Thanks for the video, very nice.

    Hi Mark, thank you for great videos! I would like to ask you about the current VR support state as I could not find much relevant info on the internet.
    Can you grab the yoke and throttles with the VR controllers and control them comfortably? I fly using only VR controllers and rudder pedals and this is very essential to me.
    Have a great day!

    • @SimHangerFS
      @SimHangerFS  Год назад

      VR controller support is limited in MSFS. It is not refined and somewhat clunky.

    • @flyingdavid
      @flyingdavid Год назад

      I fly default TBM930, CJ4 and Duckwork's DC-3 with VR controllers with no issues. So I guess it differs from plane to plane. But all of them have grabbable yoke and throttles/propellers, which is must have without hardware yoke and throttle quadrant. So in final words you would not recommend PMDG for VR controllers only? 🙂

    As a New Zealander, no thankyou to Ryan Air NZ...
    FWIW The two companies that fly jets internally here, Air New Zealand which has replaced all its 737s with A 320 variants and JetStar which may have a few flying here but I expect not since Covid.
    Queenstown airport is far more true to life than the default Wellington one, well worth flying into since it takes special pilot certification. Try it and you'll see why.

    I’m considering purchasing this aircraft. As it’s a Study Level complex 737, my question is… If as in real life, this aircraft is operated by two qualified professional pilots, so how are you all flying this single-handedly? Is it not overwhelming and too many tasks to handle safely?

      It would do okay on medium settings and perhaps 1080p or 1440p in flat mode. In VR then res in OpenXR Toolkit at 70%. PC would be better, depending on specs.

    • @kenockwell3099
      @kenockwell3099 2 года назад

      Thanks for the reply. So I did some testing 2d + 3d. Looks like when the 737 saves a panel state it freezes for about 10 secs on my machine and I use FSUIPC to autosave every 30 seconds as the dreaded CTD's returned after the latest patch. When I went to load a panel state I had 48 pages of autosaves. So last night I did my test flight EGCC to KBOS turning off the autosaves and had no issues. So it looks like a combination of 737 panel state saves and autosave feature. I can set it to every 15 mins to save now I know where the problem is. Just need to fix the CTD's now :). I'm getting about 30 fps on high settings with my 2080ti card and NO stutters. Need to save up for a 3090 now.
