VR Feedback - Multiple Headsets

Played on a 3080Ti/10700K

Valve Index / Quest 2 / Pimax 8KX

1.  The TAA + FidelityFX sharpening NEEDS some kind of sharpening slider for extra sharpening because it's still not sharp enough as it is now... all other AA settings are really blurry and borderline unplayable if you compare them to other VR racing games.  Maybe the sliders aren't working well but the FSR/DLSS sharpening slider didn't really do anything.  Reshade doesn't work currently which can use CAS Sharpening, but I'd rather not install extra things anyway.

2.  Of course the issue everyone is complaining about - when you move your head the camera moves excessively.  This issue occurred in DiRT Rally 2.0 VR when it launched, but it was eventually fixed...you would think the devs would learn from their mistakes...

3.  All of these headsets have bad jitter/lag while in the garage.  

4.  In the garage, the smoke coming out from the crew member's hose is in different spots (doesn't line up with the actual hose in the left eye).

If you set the game to modest supersampling the framerate is pretty decent.  I'm using a mix of settings but most are medium, some things high, texture streaming high.

Index at ~160% at 90Hz

Quest 2 - actually didn't play with this enough but it seems to need something below ~2400x2400 per eye at 90Hz (worse than Index to feel smooth).

8KX I'm at ~60%SS on Small FOV and seemed to have a decent time..it's the sharpest headset I have and I still easily notice the blur.

Fixing the blur and head movement would probably make me keep the game(bought on Steam but currently playing on EA Play trial until we see acknowledgement of VR fixes (hopefully within 2 weeks), but I'm on the fence.

  • Attention Oculus CV1 Users:

    I have found the magic sequence that makes the CV1 work. 

    You have to be inside the goggle for this to work. If you have black screen problems, select VR VERY LOW (the lowest setting) and apply. Don't restart the game, immediately go to the screen with the Anti Aliasing settings. Toggle between the modes, there is a high probability that the graphics will suddenly appear. If it does not, make sure your resolution is set to 1280x1024 and always in WINDOWD mode. The 1st AA setting yields top FPS, the second is bad FPS and the 3rd is black screen. 

    If it fails select other VR modes then back to the lowest one then AA toggle again. 

    This is the only way to get the CV1 to work. 

    Once the trick works, you can adjust all the settings in any way like you normally would. It just needs that kick start to work. Every time you launch the game you have to go through this sequence of steps. 

    On 1080ti with Oculus CV1 on 1920x1080 Medium VR you get smooth gameplay and very good quality (no blurring).
