the location they should be placed is C:\Program Files\OpenXR-NIS-Scaler\NVIDIAImageScaling\NIS?   the included NIS_scaler.1-0-1.h is for the newer version of the nv scaler so not needed, right?

and sharpen=0 as shown below?

    {PostProcess

I don't have the above referenced folder. I am using an Oculus Quest 2 and Airlink. Will this not work for a Quest 2?

the installer will place it at that path.  according to the description it should also work for quest.

I am confused, what do I install? Your download is only three files and you only mention two of them. What do I first install before loading your modded files?

see this?

it's not my modded file but RXP's files in this thread.

Does the scaler config tool have to remain open for it to be effective? or can I set it and close the tool like I can with openXr developer tools for mixed reality?

[mobeans10 199]

You can close it once it's enabled. You only have to open it again if you want to make changes to any of the parameters

World scale will be interesting and maybe a little subjective. I will base it on the size of the coffee cup in the FBW A320. As of now it looks a little small to me. I have a lot more experience with the size of coffee cups than the inside of a flight deck so that will be my yardstick 😀. Would be easier if I knew whether it's a Tall, Venti, or Grande though.

I confirm it is coming up in the other more general OpenXR ToolKit project, and this is working great!

The world scale adjustment is pretty much based on what I've documented here and I'm glad we can put in motion some of these ideas, which honestly, would have been quite simple to implement in the core game from the get go...

In addition to NVidia NIS Upscaler, the OXRTK is also embedding the AMD FidelityFx FSR Upscaler and it might be just personal, but I like it much more than NIS in VR because I find it is not taking more computing resources and the sharpening feels much more natural, albeit less contrasted than NIS though. At least users will have the choice to use what fits their headset panels and vision sensitivity better!

I'm also working on other QoL features, such as a filter to reduce the over exposure in VR. It won't be a magic wand but it will help a little bit. I've also an experimental implementation of a tweak which corrects some of the 3D vector maths lighting bug in FS2020 (something contributing a lot to the shimmering bug... wait, there is no shimmering bug did they say in the last Q&A? 😉 ) but the problem is that this tweak is also causing WMR motion smoothing to loose its tracks sometimes. So for those not using motion smoothing I might consider implementing this in the official release.

Here is the official OpenXR ToolKit project where this is happening (there is no release available yet):
mbucchia/OpenXR-Toolkit: A collection of useful features to customize and improve existing OpenXR applications. (github.com)

There is a lot going on in this project and I must say Matthieu is doing an excellent job and I'm honored to be working with him on this project!

can the world scale be adjusted and saved per each model?  that would be nice as having to readjust each time would be a pain.

[Kassu62 30]

It is very odd that the world scale must be adjusted for each model. Plane models are drawn using CAD software and the dimension should be get from real plane or drawings. I believe that the dimensions are right. Maybe there is hidden plane specific VR zoom setting or something similar?

[dogmanbird 269]

Thank you RXP 🙂

If the NIS interface is updatable real time, would that mean world scale could be adjusted on the fly?

[Kassu62 30]

You can adjust world scale on the fly with the IPD slide on your G2 headset.

Sorry that's incorrect, adjusting IPD does not adjust World Scale in the Sim. The IPD adjustment is to get the correct spacing for your eyes, World Scale is something completely different that relates to the "size" of your surroundings whilst in VR.
