Till now I fly without EA. I had bad experiance with enhanced atmospheric = on in VR. Worse FPS (a lot), too dark shadows, clouds problem with Active Sky (for example METAR shows overcast and I saw clear sky).

Today I turned on to test and.... I started to like it (with Envshade)! Looks really nice and FPS are really OK for VR.

Any tips for EA settings for VR and Active Sky P3D? I remember it was a problem with layers (of clouds). Is it present still?

Make sure you have the latest beta version of ASP3D and enable detailed clouds. I think it's enough to use medium cloud resolution in VR with the Rift S. It will save you some FPS. Other than that, there's not much to do that is different from legacy.

I have the latest but where is this option in ASP3D? Thx.

In "simulator depiction", I believe. Also, I would reduce LOD radius. Proably contributes a lot to your stutters. I only use medium myself. In VR you can't see very much detail in the distance anyway so you'll lose nothing.

Thx. I think You talk about this setting:

So it must be OFF (like on screenshot) or ON (ticked)?

No. That's not it. You have the stable version of ASP3D. You need to go to HIFI's download page and download and install the beta version. It will have an additional setting for 'enable detailed clouds' here. Tick it, and the clouds will improve dramatically.

Thx I see it. I have 7638 but on HiFi its 7668 version. This 7638 doesnt inform about update. I'll try it, thx again.

Btw. this option do you have ticked or not? This for volumeric cloud control?

I have it enabled. I think it makes sense to let AS do what it needs to do to work best with EA on. I find that this option does make the clouds look more realistic. It can be turned off if you want to use custom tweaks for the clouds, but if you don't use any custom tweaks, it's probably best to turn it on and AS will take care of it.

ASP3D should handle the clouds, meaning it should remain unticked as it was by default.

Thx guys! Btw 2. Is it normal?

White (fog?) line near horizon at dusk?

So leave it unticked - as default?

This does not not look normal. Clear your shaders and let them rebuild. Are you using Envshade? If so, make sure you have updated to the latest version and reaaply your modifications after you have cleared your old shaders.

Yes I use Envshade, thx for the advaices, I'll try it.

Ok, maybe it was this, I had it turn OFF:

 

I don’t know much about program  settings , however you mention AS shows a clear sky when the METAR reports overcast. I think for this Overcast to show you need the “cloud coverage density “  ( bottom right on world menu) turned up full.
