Re: VR settings thread

The blurryness has something to do with anti aliasing. So I turned it completely off, and it's not blurry anymore. However, the game disallows disabling it in the menus, you have to do it in the config file. When I remember correctly it's in "<User>/documents/my games/f1 23/hardwaresettings". There should be an hardwaresettings_vr.xml file or something similar.

Inside that xml file theres a tag anti aliasing. Set everything to "false" or "0" to disable it.

I personally don't care about not having anti aliasing, but I guess some do. So I can imagine the problem is ghosting effects with TAA. So you can try just disabling TAA

    @WuffelsThanks mate, I tried this and it removed the blurriness but it was replaced by some really bad flickering of edges for objects that were previously blurry, which I can't get rid of and is actually less playable than the blurriness was. Do you get that too or have a solution?

    To be precise, in the xml file I changed TAA to "false" and "cas" from 1 to 0 (not sure what that is). Everything else was already on false or 0. Let me know if there's something else I missed.

    Otherwise after testing everything the best Anti Aliasing option is definitely TAA with FX Sharpening.

  • @Plevs Yes, I get that, too, because getting rid of it is basically what Anti-Aliasing does. It's smoothing out the edges of objects. To achieve this there are different methods which game engines are offering. Other games for example offer FSAA or MSAA, today TAA is very popular. For me the problem is: I don't like FSAA because it looks like someone is smearing butter over the screen and I don't like TAA because it causes ghosting effects when there's movement. F1 sadly isn't offering MSAA, and also it doesn't offer FSAA. 

    The blurryness probably comes from the ghosting effects of TAA. When you are in VR you are constantly moving whether you like it or not. Neither ones head is static :D So the picture distorts due to ghosting.

    CAS is your FX Sharpening. CAS stands for "Contrast Adaptive Sharpening" and the one offered by the game is AMD FidelityFX. Try setting TAA to "false" but leave CAS to "1". Maybe that helps you. I personally do not care about having no Anti-Aliasing :D
