Thank you for this. Absolutely transformative to my iRacing experience. I'm on a i7-12700KF and RTX 3080Ti. I made sure to activate "Reflex" and change world scaling to 120% and WOW it feels so good. Adjusting the world scaling makes it completely natural to real life! Thanks again, Love from Canada mate!
Hi, where is World Scaling ??? Another question, Once all of this is set I don’t have to mess wir hast it anymore? Just Start openxr Start iracing with openxr as main screen A And that’s it ?
Thank you so much for all your work and settings, followed your instructions for all the sims and now I can just hop in and enjoy racing, Finally no more time waisted in graphics menus. Your the VR graphics GOAT. Cheers
Thank you very much. The Vertical offset setting was a complete game changer for me. I did not use 15 degrees but knowing that I can play with that was super valuable.
You're a legend for this tutorials! You should try to adjust the world scale in OpenXR toolkit. I have it at 120% in iRacing and even 160% in MSFS. In the beginning it will maybe look big, but when you go back after some testing you'll see it's all way too small at 100%. Maybe worth a try...
Interesting thought, I never felt that 100% is off reality. For me, they always feel like e.g. the hands are on the right spot both on real and virtual steering wheel. How do 'calibrate' for yourself which is the right value?
Just visual actually... The hands will stay at the right place, but the world scale is just more accurate to real life. You will see it if you go back to 100% after some time. I just pretend I'm in a real car and how it should look. For me in rF2 and iRacing around 120% feels about right.
Didn't fiddle around with those yet. (I gave up on ACC VR till I found your tutorial) I assume they are quite a bit better from the get go. Just increase with 10% and do some laps, look around to other cars and go back and forth till you find what's right for you. 👍
@@wanderschikanentv I just tried ACC for a bit. Have it also at 120%. A good thing to look at is the bucket seat, you won't fit in it at 100%. (At least i don't ;-) ) Also park the car, get out and look at it from the outside. It will be too small compared to real life at 100%. At 120% it looks more real. Let me know what your thoughts are after trying.
Ich kommentier das auch mal in deutsch 😀 Danke für das video, bin da eben drüber gestolpert da man ja immer noch bissel mehr rausholen will. Werde ich heute zu Hause direkt mal testen. Habe allerdings "nur" ne 3070ti und einen I5 10600k. Bin schon ziemlich gespannt ;-)
Getestet und für sehr gut befunden. Bin ja schon länger mit dem Tool unterwegs, allerdings sind deine Settings nochmal um einiges besser, vielen Dank für das Video.
How do you decide on the "Display resolution per eye" as it seems to be set higher than the G2 resolution? Or is this the effectively where the supersampling comes in?
Thank you for such a thorough overview, this has been exceedingly helpful. If I had to adjust down a bit for an i9-10850 and a 3070, what values would you recommend to trim down?
Hörte sich ziemlich Deutsch an ^^. Also das Video zu open xr und iracing war der Hammer ich hab so einen enormen boost bekommen mit meiner 2080ti das der Hammer. Danke für das super Video!!!!!!!
This is really a good advice, I didn't even dare to go up to 3500, as any other sim will already overload my GPU at >3200. Indeed, your proposal works really nicely!
@@frankydrama thanks mate. I tried 3400 for overrided resolution and I started to drop below stable 90fps.. might just keep it at what’s shown in the video since when I’m iracing, performance is more important than graphics for me
Thanks for the video... How are you recording the gameplay in OpenXR? Are you just recording the monitor through OBS, or actually recording the gameplay?
For iRacing, I didn't record VR gameplay at all. For some reason, while it looks superb in the headset, it looks like a nightmare on screen. For other games, in most case, I just captured the screen mirror with Nvidia Geforce Experience. In the Dirt Rally 2 video, I used OBS plugin.
I’m running an 8700k at 5Ghz and a 2080ti and these settings are absolutely amazing! I dialed it down to 4x instead of 8x and so far I’m getting a solid 90fps. Have only tested one track so far. But seriously, thank you so much for these settings. 🏎️💨
When I first went by everything you said, it was unplayable because it dropped my frame rate down from what I had been getting (about 70 fps) way down to about 12-16fps. So then I tried lowering my resolution from where you had yours since my card is just a RTX 2080. But still really bad frame rates. Then I noticed that when I ran my memory sliders to maximum like you had recommended, that my numbers were way higher... Apparently too high. It looks like since the time you made this video, iRacing updates have increased the memory slider numbers. If you bump them all the way, it creates a major issue.
I followed these settings to the T and for some reason I am only getting around 70 fps max. I am also running a 3080 ti and 7800x3d. I used your settings on AMS2 and they work amazing locked at 90 fps.
This made a huge difference for me until the moment I closed the game and tried to load up another track. Just gets to 90% then runs like crap. I reset the settings and then I can load the game up normally without issue until I apply the settings again. Similar system specs as you. Is there another program I can use as I have verified XRToolkit is the reason the game refuses to load after the first go around? The difference was enough to make it hard for me to go back to the 'original" settings
I'm having the same issues since recently. actually did a full windows reinstall. This is a serious issue. Performance has been very incosistent even with my new 5800x3d. One race i can max it all out on Magny cours, no fps drops. Other race its hardly getting 90 fps...

what should i use with 17-4790k and a 1070Ti with a lenovo explorer? i was able to get 90 fps in July, just got back into it and im at 60fps with horrible stuttering
Hi, maybe somebody else can help. I don't have experience with the Lenovo. However, weird that you see this stuttering all of a sudden. Any driver updates done? Any major update by iRacing (my account is inactive)? Maybe worthwhile also to check iRacing forums whether other users had similar step-changes of fps.
I find turbo mode causes micro stuttering after about 10 minutes, then goes away after a couple of minutes, then comes back.. Very noticeable when going round a tight corner. Are you not experiencing this?
great info and settings . really like them ... now my question is : how do i make a video ? because with these settings it is not looking great on monitor .. so what to do ??
Can't get Foveated Rendering to show up in the Toolkit menu - using OpenXR, the API is installed and the G2 should support "fixed" mode... no idea what I'm missing.
@@wanderschikanentv Naw.. that's not it as I'm on a 4070 Super. I've had a response from other users of the game in question (IL-2) and it seems that Foveated only works with OpenVR/SteamVR - I'm on OpenComposite, so I guess that's why it won't show up. They also said it would cause occasional crashes, so...
Guten tag hab dazu mal ne frage wenn ich jetzt streame kann ich mir dann den chat anzeigen lassen? mit steam vr klappt das wunderbar finde aber bei openxr keine möglichkeit, und jedesmal wenn das rennen vorbei ist schickt der mich in die mixed reality umgebung?
The only thing I would change is setting HDR to off. It barely does anything in Iracing and it costs quite some fps. In my case the fps went from 90 to around 84 when I turned HDR on.
Moin moin Gemeinde, ich muß nochmal nerven. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit mit Open XR, Apps wie zb Kapps oder Racelab in der Brille anzuzeigen wie es in Open VR möglich ist? Habe bisher nichts gefunden. Danke im Voraus
I would highly recommended this pure out of safety reasons. My G2 went glitching during a race which led my view to being off center. tried to compensate with leaning a little to the right while driving (Iracing during race)> Someone rammed me and I made some weird overcompensating move but because I was in VR I didn't notice that I was in an awkward position. End result = severe back strains for 3 days.
Not sure, I assume this is some individual thing of each headset. I was initially also wondering why this resolution isn't exactly square (e.g. 3000x3000). Don't take it too serious, I always just went for the first number.
@@wanderschikanentv I did turn on the expert version and I am on 1.2.3 I redownloaded it to make sure I was on the same version as you are and I just don't have all those options
Your settings in the past have been awesome but I've never had any luck without running reprojection. I just tried your settings in iracing with a 4080 and reverb g2 and I'm getting 50fps.. any ideas what it could be? Now when I de-select turbo and put reprojection on the fps is down at 35... I've tried multiple restarts etc, cannot figure it out...
Hi Robert, what OS and CPU are you on? it is suspicious that you need to use reprojection already in the other games. On top, iRacing seems to be the least demanding simulator amongst ACC, AC, AMS and iR. Do you have "Open XR Tools for Windows Mixed Reality" installed? If so, maybe there is an update. What version do you have? Also, check whether there is e.g. a custom resolution set in this tool. If so, remove it. Also, on older Windows 10 versions, there was the infamous HolographicShell slowing down things a lot. Any (optional) Windows updates available for your PC?
Hey I'm Also have a 4080 with a 12900k and 32gb ram and I'm getting around the same, I upgraded from the 3080 and it ran better on the 3080. Maybe there's a driver problem ? I haven't had any luck finding anything. Let me know if you get yours fixed.
@@sp33dr4ge881 yea, I've tried ddu and checked some bios power settings. I'm going to reinstall windows today and hopefully that can solve it because nothing else Ive done has worked
Something is very wrong Robert. 2080S and I9 9900 here, I run Iracing at 100% ss and get a stable 90fps at the Nordschleife with 40AI. The only game I use reprojection for is FS2020, for racing sims you really don't want to use that - and you should not have to with a 4090. I almost use the same settings as in this video. Maybe also ask around on the Iracing forum in the VR section, probable someone there can help you out if you can't figure out what is causing this.
I would turn on shadow maps and turn down something else if you need it. Without shadows game looks so cheap. Not the dynamic shadows though, those don't make a big difference.
Hi Glenn! No, it is also plus +15. First, it relates to vertical offset, not horizontal, and second, we only shift the sharp area a bit upwards to the windscreen. Hope this helps!
Hi very nice video, have set my VR values to this,would be nice if you included your Nvidia graphic card settings and the WMR settings for the reverb too and that would be spot on,cheers
Hi Nick, NVIDIA settings are in the written description, WMR is all Default. But it's a valid comment from you, the video would be more valuable if I add this directly to the video. Thanks for the feedback!
Have a simillar setup to yours, with an RTX3080, 32GB Ram, and 10700k. With your settings the clarity is amazing, however I'm getting some pretty bad performance in this week's IMSA races. The performance suffers the most around other cars. Not sure if this is related to Sebring being poorly optimized in iR, or the fact that it's a night/early morning race. Would you mind testing that and giving some feedback?
No experience with the 10700k but I noticed a nice performance increase switching from a 9900k setup to a 13600k setup. The 12 and 13th gen intels are quite a bit better gaming performance wise. I believe iRacing is pretty cpu dependant as well
Mach mal testweise das Fixed Foveated Rendering aus. Wenn die Instrumente am Rand des Blickfekds liegen und Du nur die Augen bewegst, aber nicht den Kopf, um dort hinzuschauen, liegen sie ja mit FFR in einer Region, wo weniger Pixel gerendert werden.
Hi, not all options are available on e.g. all graphic cards or headsets. Check here. mbucchia.github.io/OpenXR-Toolkit/index#supported-graphics-cards - what system are you on? Anyhow, follow the guide as much as possible, basic principle should work anyhow.
@@viktork.2076 So it seems that you would need an DirectX12 application to get Fixed Foveated Rendering. As far as I can google it, iRacing is only DirectX11. However, I can't check as I suspended my iRacing account.
Just give it a try without FFR. If you need to gain some fps, try lowering the AA/Samples Mode ingame, or Custom Resolution in OpenXR Toolkit. Otherwise, with respect to fps, iRacing is quite forgiving :-)
In my understanding, you need to differentiate Upscaling (NIS or FSR) from Sharpening (CAS). NIS and FSR are used to relief the GPU, and I also think that combination of NIS/FSR with custom resolution is one-step back - one-step forward. In the combination of custom resolution with CAS, I turn up the resolution for a smooth baseline picture and use CAS to give it the final touch of crispiness. The addition of CAS into OpenXR Toolkit has been the best option for sharpness, IMO.
Hy !! I am searching help man ... I try your setting, so good performances, 90 IPS with RYZEN 9 5900X / RTX 4080 BUT.... i have a lot of shimmering, ... i try a lot of alternatives settings, but no solution for me.. i am so dissapointed , realy... THANKS community
Not sure what you mean, with my settings, there is no need to add or modify specific files. You only need to use OpenXR Toolkit which is a separate program, and follow the settings instructions.
@wanderschikanentv hey, hoffe das erreicht dich. Danke für deine settings, haben mein vr Erlebnis deutlich verbessert. Nur hab ich ein Problem beim aufnehmen. Trotz etwas besserem System als du nutzt, habe ich stottern in meinen Aufnahmen vom gameplay. Würdest du deine settings für die Aufnahmen auch teilen? Grüße
Wo es geht, zeichne ich mit NVIDIA Geforce auf. Dafür muss es einen "Mirror" auf dem Bildschirm geben. Dirt Rally 2 hab ich mit OBS aufgezeichnet, es gibt ein Plugin für OpenXR
@@wanderschikanentv okay, mit geforce habe ich es noch nicht versucht. Das openxr plugin für obs habe ich. Jetzt wo ich auch endlich kapiert habe dass ich das openvr capture in der Szene ausmachen sollte, ist es auch viel besser, aber die Qualität ist eher Mittel. Habe aber auch iracing auf so ziemlich max settings mit xr und will da jetzt keine Kompromisse mehr machen, jetzt wo ich es gesehen habe 😄 Ist geforce ein bisschen weniger Ressourcen hungrig? Vielen Dank fürs antworten!
Not sure what happened with me, followed these settings to a T and I’m getting 30 FPS. I’m running a top notch setup, i7 13th gen, 4090, 32GB memory, SN850x…
This could be 2 issues . 1.) HolographicShell from Windows 2.) VBS/HVCI from Windows. If you Google a bit, you can find videos how to disable these features. Let me know if it worked!
@@wanderschikanentv hey thanks, i remember these items previously and sort of blanked on it. I never had any performance issues prior to using XR Toolkit, but seems once I started using that these other variables came more into play. I did some testing last night and was back to being locked at 90fps and quality was improved. I did notice that using Ultra textures caused some issues where some textures were blurred out, bumping that down to high made a massive difference, so I wonder if there is some optimization that isn't happening or something else is impacting that. thanks again!
Hi Jay, try to isolate whether it crashes already by iRacing in OpenXR alone, or by iRacing in OpenXR in conjunction with OpenXR Toolkit. For that purpose, you can disable the Toolkit in its Companion App. If the latter is the issue, please check on the OpenXR Toolkit Discord. As I don't own an Oculus product, I don't have experience with it.
Some users reported very low fps like you, but I can't tell why that happens. Maybe give it a try again after a driver update or when there is an OpenXR Toolkit update. CAS is a very good option for clarity, so it's a pity that it doesn't work on your system.
Hey, I'm sorry, I will delete comment. I had to go into openXR for windows mixed reality and reset it in the settings. I think it works now, not sure why it stopped working. It was doing a weird thing where the game would load, but the G2 would have no video. Thanks for replying!@@wanderschikanentv
@@sliding_kiwi_843 Hi, sorry, then I'm out of ideas for the root cause, and I can't check myself, I discontinued my iRacing account. Anyhow, I think it is something fundamentally strange as iRacing is the most PC-friendly game of all games that I optimized for VR. Best would be to check iRacing forums for other uses with low OpenXR performance, or the OpenXR Toolkit Discord.

The content on the screen also looks horrible for me. This is weird for racing. Nice in VR, bad on screen. In the video, it is a replay.
@@wanderschikanentv thank you for answering.
Can't get Foveated Rendering to show up in the Toolkit menu - using OpenXR, the API is installed and the G2 should support "fixed" mode... no idea what I'm missing.
@@1SaG some graphic cards don't support FFR. Which one are you using? List of Features is available on OpenXR Toolkit Website
@@wanderschikanentv Naw.. that's not it as I'm on a 4070 Super. I've had a response from other users of the game in question (IL-2) and it seems that Foveated only works with OpenVR/SteamVR - I'm on OpenComposite, so I guess that's why it won't show up. They also said it would cause occasional crashes, so...
@@1SaG I don't remember. But you can also check my IL-2 Video on this channel :-)
Guten tag hab dazu mal ne frage wenn ich jetzt streame kann ich mir dann den chat anzeigen lassen?
mit steam vr klappt das wunderbar finde aber bei openxr keine möglichkeit, und jedesmal wenn das rennen vorbei ist schickt der mich in die mixed reality umgebung?
@@streetG89E mit dem Chat kann ich Dir nicht weiterhelfen. Ich hab auch kein iRacing mehr :-/
The only thing I would change is setting HDR to off. It barely does anything in Iracing and it costs quite some fps. In my case the fps went from 90 to around 84 when I turned HDR on.
Indeed, it is only for the sun glare, no such dramatic graphic effects as in other games.
@@wanderschikanentv that and the braking light have a nice glow, but not worth the fps cost I think :)
In my case there barely was a difference. Maybe 1 fps or so. I have a rtx3080
Moin moin Gemeinde, ich muß nochmal nerven. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit mit Open XR, Apps wie zb Kapps oder Racelab in der Brille anzuzeigen wie es in Open VR möglich ist?
Habe bisher nichts gefunden.
Danke im Voraus
Ich kann da nichts zu beitragen, habe keine Erfahrung mit Overlays.
small hint - you can reset in car position with a button, set it in iracing controls.
I would highly recommended this pure out of safety reasons. My G2 went glitching during a race which led my view to being off center. tried to compensate with leaning a little to the right while driving (Iracing during race)> Someone rammed me and I made some weird overcompensating move but because I was in VR I didn't notice that I was in an awkward position.
End result = severe back strains for 3 days.
Same here, I map such button in all simulations.
Do you do one for Msfs? This has absolutely changed my iracing, it looks massively better and runs so much smoother Thankyou
Why would my reverb G2 have a override resolution of 3000x2935. Yours is 3000x2923 is my resolution off?
Not sure, I assume this is some individual thing of each headset. I was initially also wondering why this resolution isn't exactly square (e.g. 3000x3000). Don't take it too serious, I always just went for the first number.
Hi there, for some reason when I click on my profile there is no setting tab in the Iracing UI. Any ideas?
Its on the left bottom corner now
Thank you very much for this vidéo, it's always so effecient and brilliant! 👍
Enjoy the race!
Would these settings work on Oculus Rift S
I can't find all these options you list in OpenXR. Am I missing something? My menus are shorter then yours.
Did you activate the expert settings? Also, what version are you in? I'm on 1.2.3
@@wanderschikanentv I did turn on the expert version and I am on 1.2.3 I redownloaded it to make sure I was on the same version as you are and I just don't have all those options
@@MrUnSavory I think you need Nvidia RTX card
@@lickrish3930 I think you are correct.
Your settings in the past have been awesome but I've never had any luck without running reprojection. I just tried your settings in iracing with a 4080 and reverb g2 and I'm getting 50fps..
any ideas what it could be? Now when I de-select turbo and put reprojection on the fps is down at 35...
I've tried multiple restarts etc, cannot figure it out...
Hi Robert, what OS and CPU are you on?
it is suspicious that you need to use reprojection already in the other games. On top, iRacing seems to be the least demanding simulator amongst ACC, AC, AMS and iR. Do you have "Open XR Tools for Windows Mixed Reality" installed? If so, maybe there is an update. What version do you have? Also, check whether there is e.g. a custom resolution set in this tool. If so, remove it.
Also, on older Windows 10 versions, there was the infamous HolographicShell slowing down things a lot. Any (optional) Windows updates available for your PC?
Hey I'm Also have a 4080 with a 12900k and 32gb ram and I'm getting around the same, I upgraded from the 3080 and it ran better on the 3080. Maybe there's a driver problem ? I haven't had any luck finding anything. Let me know if you get yours fixed.
Strange b/c I am getting 90 fps easy with his settings on my RTX 3080 My CPU is a AMD 5900x and mother board AUS rog STRIX 570 if that means anything
@@sp33dr4ge881 yea, I've tried ddu and checked some bios power settings. I'm going to reinstall windows today and hopefully that can solve it because nothing else Ive done has worked
Something is very wrong Robert. 2080S and I9 9900 here, I run Iracing at 100% ss and get a stable 90fps at the Nordschleife with 40AI. The only game I use reprojection for is FS2020, for racing sims you really don't want to use that - and you should not have to with a 4090. I almost use the same settings as in this video. Maybe also ask around on the Iracing forum in the VR section, probable someone there can help you out if you can't figure out what is causing this.
I would turn on shadow maps and turn down something else if you need it. Without shadows game looks so cheap. Not the dynamic shadows though, those don't make a big difference.
For a right hand drive car would the vertical offset be -15?
Hi Glenn! No, it is also plus +15. First, it relates to vertical offset, not horizontal, and second, we only shift the sharp area a bit upwards to the windscreen. Hope this helps!
Hi very nice video, have set my VR values to this,would be nice if you included your Nvidia graphic card settings and the WMR settings for the reverb too and that would be spot on,cheers
Hi Nick, NVIDIA settings are in the written description, WMR is all Default. But it's a valid comment from you, the video would be more valuable if I add this directly to the video. Thanks for the feedback!
Have a simillar setup to yours, with an RTX3080, 32GB Ram, and 10700k. With your settings the clarity is amazing, however I'm getting some pretty bad performance in this week's IMSA races. The performance suffers the most around other cars. Not sure if this is related to Sebring being poorly optimized in iR, or the fact that it's a night/early morning race. Would you mind testing that and giving some feedback?
Hey, sorry, I only own some limited content in iRacing, so, I cannot help here.
No experience with the 10700k but I noticed a nice performance increase switching from a 9900k setup to a 13600k setup. The 12 and 13th gen intels are quite a bit better gaming performance wise. I believe iRacing is pretty cpu dependant as well
was mir auffällt ist das im Auto die anzeigen unscharf sind .Hast du ne Ahnung woran das liegen könnte?
Mach mal testweise das Fixed Foveated Rendering aus. Wenn die Instrumente am Rand des Blickfekds liegen und Du nur die Augen bewegst, aber nicht den Kopf, um dort hinzuschauen, liegen sie ja mit FFR in einer Region, wo weniger Pixel gerendert werden.
@@wanderschikanentv ok werde ich mal testen. Hatte vorher ne 2080ti und heute meine 4090 bekommen hätte bischen mehr erwartet muss ich sagen
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hi!why don't I have a tab "Fixed foveated rendering"?because there are the main settings as far as I understand.
Hi, not all options are available on e.g. all graphic cards or headsets. Check here. mbucchia.github.io/OpenXR-Toolkit/index#supported-graphics-cards - what system are you on? Anyhow, follow the guide as much as possible, basic principle should work anyhow.
@@wanderschikanentv 7800XT
@@viktork.2076 So it seems that you would need an DirectX12 application to get Fixed Foveated Rendering. As far as I can google it, iRacing is only DirectX11. However, I can't check as I suspended my iRacing account.
Just give it a try without FFR. If you need to gain some fps, try lowering the AA/Samples Mode ingame, or Custom Resolution in OpenXR Toolkit. Otherwise, with respect to fps, iRacing is quite forgiving :-)
How can i disable distortion curvature
when i choose CAS nothing happens like in the video there arent any other options like you have. what could the cause of that be ?
I think all features are only available on RTX graphic cards. What card are you on? Otherwise, "Expert Settings" are on?
@WanderSchikanenTV oh okay damn I got an amd gpu well then never mind. maybe it's strong enough without the settings
@@Ibo4433 give it a try, openxr alone is already a good improvement over SteamVR
whats the point of supersampling if you are upscaling? Wouldn't you just be bringing yourself back to baseline?
You mean the combination of custom resolution and CAS?
@@wanderschikanentv Yes.
In my understanding, you need to differentiate Upscaling (NIS or FSR) from Sharpening (CAS). NIS and FSR are used to relief the GPU, and I also think that combination of NIS/FSR with custom resolution is one-step back - one-step forward. In the combination of custom resolution with CAS, I turn up the resolution for a smooth baseline picture and use CAS to give it the final touch of crispiness. The addition of CAS into OpenXR Toolkit has been the best option for sharpness, IMO.
@@wanderschikanentv Ah, that makes sense then. Didn't realise CAS was stricly a sharpening tool.. Definitley gonna play around with that. Thanks!
I copied these settings but I fluctuate between 45 and 90 fps in race.. anyone have ideas why? I have a 3080, 7700k, and the g2
Seems you are going into motion reprojection. Turn it off in OpenXR Toolkit. Also, try lower value for "AA Samples / Mode" in iRacing ingame menu.
Hy !!

@@christianhojas4787 yes
Hello, I'm not sure what file to add to the root of the game, or am I wrong?
thank you.
Not sure what you mean, with my settings, there is no need to add or modify specific files. You only need to use OpenXR Toolkit which is a separate program, and follow the settings instructions.
@@wanderschikanentv Do you know if it is so easy to implement in all vr racing games? thank you so much and sorry for bother you.

Trotz etwas besserem System als du nutzt, habe ich stottern in meinen Aufnahmen vom gameplay. Würdest du deine settings für die Aufnahmen auch teilen? Grüße
Wo es geht, zeichne ich mit NVIDIA Geforce auf. Dafür muss es einen "Mirror" auf dem Bildschirm geben. Dirt Rally 2 hab ich mit OBS aufgezeichnet, es gibt ein Plugin für OpenXR
@@wanderschikanentv okay, mit geforce habe ich es noch nicht versucht. Das openxr plugin für obs habe ich. Jetzt wo ich auch endlich kapiert habe dass ich das openvr capture in der Szene ausmachen sollte, ist es auch viel besser, aber die Qualität ist eher Mittel.

Ist geforce ein bisschen weniger Ressourcen hungrig?
Vielen Dank fürs antworten!
Not sure what happened with me, followed these settings to a T and I’m getting 30 FPS.
I’m running a top notch setup, i7 13th gen, 4090, 32GB memory, SN850x…
This could be 2 issues . 1.) HolographicShell from Windows 2.) VBS/HVCI from Windows. If you Google a bit, you can find videos how to disable these features. Let me know if it worked!
@@wanderschikanentv hey thanks, i remember these items previously and sort of blanked on it. I never had any performance issues prior to using XR Toolkit, but seems once I started using that these other variables came more into play.
I did some testing last night and was back to being locked at 90fps and quality was improved. I did notice that using Ultra textures caused some issues where some textures were blurred out, bumping that down to high made a massive difference, so I wonder if there is some optimization that isn't happening or something else is impacting that. thanks again!
@@wanderschikanentv Do we still need to disable holographic shell? i thought the long ago fixed it ;/
my quest 2 crash when I set this settings I'm using 3070
Hi Jay, try to isolate whether it crashes already by iRacing in OpenXR alone, or by iRacing in OpenXR in conjunction with OpenXR Toolkit. For that purpose, you can disable the Toolkit in its Companion App. If the latter is the issue, please check on the OpenXR Toolkit Discord. As I don't own an Oculus product, I don't have experience with it.
Frame rate limit does nothing in vr (iracing), set it to 70 and you will still get 90Fps..
THX for the heads-up, I didn't check values lower than 91 tbh.
Yeah, setting CAS puts me at like 4 fps…. Amd 5800x3d and 2080ti…
Some users reported very low fps like you, but I can't tell why that happens. Maybe give it a try again after a driver update or when there is an OpenXR Toolkit update. CAS is a very good option for clarity, so it's a pity that it doesn't work on your system.
@@wanderschikanentv it is. But I have the same issue in DCS. I’ve tried at different times to.
These settings broke my iracing and it no longer works in VR on open XR
Hi Marjan, what is the specific issue? Not starting? Image problems? Are you on HP reverb G2?
Hey, I'm sorry, I will delete comment. I had to go into openXR for windows mixed reality and reset it in the settings. I think it works now, not sure why it stopped working. It was doing a weird thing where the game would load, but the G2 would have no video. Thanks for replying!@@wanderschikanentv

@@sliding_kiwi_843 Hi, sorry, then I'm out of ideas for the root cause, and I can't check myself, I discontinued my iRacing account.
