    This video has somehow solved literally every issue 2.9 gave me. The stuttering being the main issue, I am absolutely delighted that this has been solved. Someone get this on an ED thread and elevate the suffering 2.9 has caused for hundreds. I am now having an out of body experience. Complete elation. Thank you so much ReflectedSimulations.

    This new update was a complete game changer for me. The DLSS in VR took my graphics from potato quality to amazing and drastically improved my performance. I’m seeing details I didn’t even know existed before.

    It’s been months! Two quest 2’s, three computers with all the same problem. I followed this process exactly and it seems to have fixed my issue. Looks way better too. I have to tried it on the other computers but from what I just seen it’s fixed! 😊

    Sorry folks, the first version was taken down because of the music so I had to change it and reupload. In the meantime I got a great piece of advice: If you use even a little bit of the Fixed Foveated Rendering in OpenXR, you get enough FPS boost so that you can further bump your resolution in the Oculus app and still get the same performance. While Turbo Mode should disable ASW, somehow I found that through the Oculus Tray Tool I can still force ASW modes, and that's how I get the smoothest experience.
    EDIT: News came in from ED, apparently running DCS as an admin is not such a good idea after all. Experiment at your own risk.

    Something that worked well for me in VR is setting ingame vr resolution scaling as small as possible (0.5) and setting resolution scaling in steamvr (or the oculus app, but I haven't tested that) to 200% (or the corresponding value you had before, so 130% becomes 260%, also experiment with what is enough for you). Though it might do the opposite for you, so your milage may vary.

    This one did the trick, I don't know exactly what it was I just followed it to the point exept the XR tool turbo mode that never seem to work for me.
    But all other worked and I am now getting a stable 72 FPS with good graphics on my mediocre set up.

    From what I understand on the Parking/unparking core thing is this was an early on issue in windows 11 when upgrading from windows 10. Win11 wasn’t properly identifying game mode to utilize the performance cores for gaming and therefore leaving performance on the table. I thought this has since been resolved but you still see just as many tutorials out there telling users to Park 1/2 their cores as you do tutorials telling users to unpark the cores. Can get quite confusing especially if windows thinks DCS is a sim and not a game. 😂

      If you're running OpenXR Toolkit, try disabling Turbo Mode in it and see if it helps. When I tried to optimize my settings I ran across some occasions where that setting would make my rig choke a lot, just can't remember in which cases that was happening.

    Hey Reflected, thanks for this! I asked in the first upload as well but, wondering if you're experiencing any VRAM issues. I note you have a lower VRAM card (8GB I think?), but are running high terrain textures at pretty good resolution. For me when VRAM fills up it freezes and then resumes with degraded performance thence.

      Yes I have those sometimes. But low terrain textures are just too ugly. I hope ED optimized the VRAM usage soon

      @@ReflectedSimulations In my case a desktop asus mobo, 5600x new build with a 3080 at the time. CP being brand new was the benchmark for fiddling about with, and had no end of headaches until I stripped back all the drivers and put them on one by one until worked out it was Armory crate (and some others - I forget exactly which tho prob have it saved in a forum post on overclockers site). Obv a different game, but it was the difference in ray traced settings maxed out etc of being in the region of 60fps vs 40fps. That being said, there may have likely been early bios issues on top of that, as Windows 11 was unusable too (would miss occasional keyboard presses and mouse clicks - thought they were broken) so went back to W10. The main armory issues were with w10. Hopefully whatever the issue back then was fixed though with armory etc, but for obvious reasons I've been reluctant to try :)

      @@ReflectedSimulationsI just did some digging and found some of my old posts on it. In short, it was Asus AI Suite that caused most of the problems. And had found other reports of other people with the same issues, resulting in the need to reinstall windows over the top of itself to fix without installing that POS. ccleaner, asus folders, services tweaking etc no undoing could get rid of the problems it caused. People managed to replicate every time the issue being introduced once AI Suite was on (I think armory crate might have been part of that). Another note at the time too, was turn off SVM and Hyper-V unless you absolutely need it on for virtualization, as when I was testing with that and Cinebench that being enabled also hurt performance, with many reporting it can reduce the bus clock

    DCS vr for me is unusable as far as dogfighting is concerned. I can get the cockpit to look great, but anything beyond my wingtips is a blurry, shimmering, semi-transparent mess. I can't distinguish any aircraft type until they are very close, like 300 meters/yards away. At 3/4 of a mile (1.2km) an aircraft appears as a perfect little black square!? I can get 45-90 fps, 5-10ms frametimes, but nothing so far makes any difference to the quality of other aircraft appearance. I've spent more than 30 hours trying different settings and guides over the past 6 months.
    I have : I9-11900k / 3080ti / 32mg 3600 ram / reverb G2 / 1tb ssd / open XR + toolkit
    Does anyone have any advice ?

    i checked the pc specs up front, i have a ryzen 9 12core 5900X ,32gig and a rtx3070 8gig vram on a quest3... it should at least run fairly smooth on a single player freeflight on low setting...
    Its such a let down for me, i spend a whole week by now trying to get it playable but nothing works.
    Followed every tutorial i could find, Nothing works..
    i havent been able to attend any online thing, it loads for idk 10 min, i can choose stuff and push fly,, and lagfest again, 1 frame per 2 sec.. really.
    And i play a lot of pcvr games that are demanding and it runs perfectly smooth on high or even ultra, like ACC or VRchat or idk every other game actually, so why is DCS so shitty for me?

    Turning off Hardware accelerated GPU scheduling with a 4000 series Nvidia card is a bad idea. 64GB RAM is a waste of cash unless you play a lot on MP servers (90% of players don't). A 'good' SSD is plenty good enough. I've swapped SSD's several times when upgrading and reinstalling DCS and it never makes any difference. There is a thread on the ED forums regarding 'max performance power setting, and it makes no difference from the 'normal' setting. A lot of your stuttering issues are likely because you've using a 3070 laptop...so a little less than 3060 desktop performance. It also looks like the Multithreading has moved to Openbeta and it isn't necessary to run the separate .exe now.

    Hello Reflected Simulations, i've watched this video but my graphics is still not ok, especially with the clouds. I have HORRIBLE clouds effects, especially if i look to the horizon far away from me, or when the clouds are touching the mountains, or at dawn or dusk, which is the worst of the worst. The effect is TERRIBLE. The clouds appear with too many pixels, squared and not detailed like yours in your videos (even in a daylight). In your videos, they're looking real! I'm sorry for my bad english. I have a very good pc, made expecially for DCS:
    ASUS RTX 4070ti with 12 GB
    64 GB of RAM
    AMD RYZEN 7 7700X, 8 CORE with 5,4 GHz of boost
    NVME as archiviation
    MSI MPG B650 Carbon ATX as Motherboard
    Every setting is at maximun performance in DCS.
    So, whats happening to me? On my pc, DCS is always running with 165 fps in basically every wheater conditions. Is there a way to solve this? I didn't expect this, with such a good hardware
