September 21, 20178 yr Commercial Member So in the future the conversion might go like this when approached by someone while your wearing your super new VR headset.. Someone say's "where do you live?" I reply, "I live in a headset" someone asks, "Headset? isn't it a bit cramped in there?" I reply, "No, I have the whole world in there" Paul Grubich 2017 - Professional texture artist painting virtual aircraft I love.

October 3, 20178 yr I waned to add my 2c to this thread. I picked up a Rift CV1 with touch controllers pretty cheap and thought I'd give it a go with P3DV4. Whilst I admit that there is something kinda cool about looking around the cockpit, I just could not get over the SDE. Yes the sense of immersion is pretty good, but the SDE really does kill it for me. That said, I'm coming from a 4K 49" TV. I'll put it back in the box and sell. Will see what happens in the 2nd Gen of VR devices. Kael Oswald 9950X3D/ 64GB DDR5 6200 @ CL30 / Custom Water Loop / RTX 5090 / 3 x 48" LG C4 OLEDs
October 3, 20178 yr Did you up the Supersampling? I reckon you need to adjust the settings before giving up. Mark Harris. Aged 54. P3D, & DCS mostly.

Hopefully something good for VR uses in the next LM update of Prepar3D. IM
October 4, 20178 yr Fair points. I did try adjusting the supersampling with OC Tray Tool. Up to 2.0 which helped a little bit but the SDE is still pretty apparent. It would also be nice to move into spot view but I couldn't figure out how to do that. I'll try with Flyinside and 4.1 when it's released.

Just bumping this very old comment when reading this thread..... When you try VR, it's as though you're expectations shift instantly You'll find yourself wondering why everyone became so obsessed with 4k crystal clear images because VR gives you something 4k cannot - complete immersion into the sim world Sure, it'll be great when the resolution is improved, but the realism is so overwhelming you realise that the 4k setups are just 2 dimensional screenshot platforms With VR you can step in the aircraft and fly it, and no amount of crisp 2D imagery can get anywhere near that experience I just shuffled the furniture around at home, went back into VR, got up out of the cockpit seat and walked to the back of the plane That's pretty mindblowing and frankly, who cares about high resolution when you can do that
October 20, 20178 yr I agree with you. However sometimes I just feel the need to fly the flat screen, to once again enjoy the spoils of 4K clarity and eye candy that just isn’t there (yet) with VR. Best of both worlds. ICE
October 21, 20178 yr i agree, the 2D experience is still as good as it always was VR is not a replacement currently, it's just a whole new way of enjoying PC flight sims it's a shame that the native VR in P3D isn't as good as Flyinside because with the native you can switch in and out of VR on the fly Meaning you can mix VR for a single flight - taxi and takeoff in VR, cruise in the 2D/4k view, then return to VR for landing and taxi the video showing upcoming VR support in Xplane is really impressive

I'm using a Pimax 4K unit and find it really annoying loosing the higher resolution in native. I've manually set a higher resolution in the FI ini file but this doesn't seem to help much. I'm guess they drop the res down to keep the FPS up. Ice
November 5, 20178 yr VR is the future try aerofly fs2 and take the default 747 for a spin, .... mind blowing... I7-10700F RTX 3070 32 Gig Ram
