      @@SimHangerFS Thanks for your vid, great stuff. I'm hunting around and can't seem to find a clear answer, in that you said setting custom fixed resolution in OpenXr overrides the game and everything else stopping it from jumping around then you said you recommend 60- 70% in the game?? Why would it matter what it is in the game if its being ignored?? Which is it? are they two different things perhaps, is it 60-70 rendering OF the custom resolution you chose? but then that leads me to thing why would you want to just set the appropriate res and render 100% of it??? ahh, I'm confused haha

    • @SimHangerFS
      @SimHangerFS  3 роки тому +1

      @@bournejsn hi, the difference is open xr sets the render scale for the system. Just setting it in flightsim does not stop windows from adjusting the scale. So when testing out your various MSFS settings you don’t get misleading results as windows is changing parameters in the background. Happy holidays 👍

    Excellent as always, thanks for sharing. I have an RTX3090 AND the G2 and will try out the VR in MSFS2020 soon. If I ever have to lean in to read the instruments then it’s a waste of time. I’m back to the only other VR headset I ever (briefly) owned nearly 4yrs ago. The Oculus Rift was in my opinion useless for flight sim because of horrendous screen door etc. But most of all leaning forward to read big instruments was a killer. I seriously hope this is not the case this time around. Your video has raised some concerns I thought had gone away. Let you know. 🥺😱

    • @danielgardenier3535
      @danielgardenier3535 3 роки тому +1

      Even Reverb G2 owners with excellent inbuilt resolution have to dial this down to 60% to get a performance somewhere near 20 to 30 fps ^^. Don't want to disencourage you, but for sure you'll have to lean forward to read instruments. I really struggled with my Valve Index, and gave up on this until they release a acceptable VR implementation. And I will never complain about DCS's performance in VR again 😂

    • @NGC008

    Great video, thanks for sharing! I noticed you mention you had the HP Reverb Pro. I understand I have the same headset (the name in amazon is 'HP Reverb Virtual Reality Headset - Professional Edition') but I cannot make FS2020 run in VR despite having tried many configurations. The headset runs well in WMR portal, but when I switch to VR in FS2020, main main screen splits into two, sound starts going through the headset and I can see some luminosity through the headset, but no image. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks a lot in advance.

    • @SimHangerFS
      @SimHangerFS  3 роки тому

      When you say the screen splits into two....is it the separate lenses showing on screen, because this is normal for MSFS. Check your settings in windows via control panel MIXED REALITY then headset display...change to default ( let windows decide). I assume your not going via steam but directly through windows mixed realty. Does it work with any other application other than the WMR Portal?

    • @marcoscasanueva
      @marcoscasanueva 3 роки тому +1

      @@SimHangerFS thanks a lot for your reply. When I was saying 'the screen splits into two' I understand that each smaller screen correspond to each of the eyes in the headset. Didn't know that was standard FS behaviour, I would have expected the main screen to remain the same. I checked the settings on the WMR portal and all of them are in 'Let Windows Decide'. Regarding other apps running in WMR portal, I was able to use the headsets in VR and open apps that come in the portal by default (such as the under the sea app). I can not discard the possibility of me doing something stupid with Windows as I'm a Mac user. I bought the PC and headset just to put together the sim (I'm a PPA student). Don't have experience with other apps. Once again thanks a lot for your help.

    Probably a silly question but I've not seen any reference to this anywhere. I have a honeycomb yoke and soon (hopefully) a honeycomb throttle set. How does VR work with these peripherals? I worry they are not usable (switches especially) unless you memorise their position in space as you can't physically see them with a headset in place. Or am I missing something?

    • @SimHangerFS
      @SimHangerFS  3 роки тому

      Hi Alan, not a silly question at all. You can not see the peripherals with the headset on, this is not an issue using the yoke, but can be for switches and throttle etc. Many simmers use the mouse etc in the cockpit for these controls. Regards

    A great start for VR for MSFS, but some way from being a finished product. It is not as demanding system wise as feared, but none-the-less if you want to use it with add-ons and high density areas you are going to need a reasonably powerful PC. Microsoft recommend a minimum GTX 1080 graphics card and an i5 processor, but to get full use of VR I would recommend something around the 2080 super upwards, ideally an RTX3070 and an i7 processor. Stay safe and have a great holiday season. 2021 has just got to be a better year for all.

    I did not realize that the VR headset hand controllers could not be used. It is soooo much easier to just reach out and move a lever than to assign buttons and blindly try to find them to fly...

      I agree. Just tested it and hoped it would be like X-Plane 11's VR which is by far the best out there, where you can interact with the cockpit using the hand controls. For that I have one VR controller on my right side, usually placed on a chair next to me when not in use, as well as a real flight yoke + throttle for actual flying. Oh and rudder pedals. Best of both worlds. Really disappointed that MSFS doesn't even see the VR controllers. :/ Mouse is so clunky.

      @ziher123 If you are just going to fly around I can see using a joystick. But to me if you intend to try to be the most familiar with the plain, using the motion hand controllers force you to know where each lever/button are in the cockpit.

    Does VR mode not have full vr controls yet? Im a VR gamer and Ive wanted this game for ages (I remember growing up with it in the late 90's!) But Im pretty hardcore into my VR now and I found it very hard for me personally to sit at the PC in front of screens with all my VR getup on too. If you still have to do all the main controls via the mouse keyboard I'll wait a bit longer, as im sure full vr support will hit this game eventually and ive waited a long time already XD so a little longer wont hurt.

    Mark, as the VR experience is engrossing but still suboptimal, after the graphic-setting adjustments you suggest, which hardware upgrade might show the larger improvement, CPU or GPU? UA-camr, Xcheck, has an RTX 3090 but still describes performance as so "terrible" that he can't use VR for "more than 10 minutes" without troublesome nausea, whereas he can use it on DCS for hours without a problem. That gives me little hope for improvement any time soon.

    • @SimHangerFS
      @SimHangerFS  3 роки тому

      The key is to turn down the render setting to provide a smoother performance, even at 60% the visuals are still immersive. CPU ...needs to be reasonably beefy, but not extreme. Regards

      Also true. I should have qualified my question much better. Sorry.
      If I have an RTX 3080 and a Ryzen 3600XT, and the sim plays great in 2D but poorly in VR, would it do much good to upgrade the CPU? It's probably better to ask whether, in general, VR seems to be more GPU constrained or CPU constrained at moderate resolutions like 1080 and 1440.

    Valve Index is almost unusable even with lowest settings possible and render scaling between 60-80...below 60 is to grainy and above 80 there is a lot of sttuters.
    CV1 is a better.It is almost fluid and usable on reccomended VR settings,but of course, base image quality of headset is worse than Valve.
    Anyway,I am not sure if this can be additionaly optimised by ASOBO team or we realy need new expensive hardware...
    I was under impression that I have HIGH END machine esspecialy having in mind how well its running MS2020 on 2K monitor (all settings are on ultra),but it looks like it's not enough for VR....very dissapointing...
