Reverb G2 Shaky

[cchiozza 106]

I am having good frame rates with Reverb G2 but the depiction is shaky? Is there any setting I am missing? I know the XR toolkit has a setting in it, I cant remember the name but has something to do with over compensating? Any Ideas?

I've been seeing this as well lately.  Are you using AAU2 beta?  I thought it might be related to that.

Otherwise sometimes reducing settings smooths it out.

Yes AAU2 / same in non beta

Try going in to Mixed Reality settings and under Environment click Clear.

If that doesn't help, in OXRTK go to the Inputs tab and adjust over prediction reduction down. I use -40%. Not do NOT do this step if you are using Motion Reprojection as the two settings mess with each other and cause wobbly visual artifacts.

Thanks the reduction worked. Just wonder what causes it.

I'm not sure but in Windows 11 at least, the G2 seems very prone to shakes and thankfully this OXRTK setting counters it very well.

I guess. What would happen with out the xrtools set?

I've been away for a couple of weeks.  Booted up (and no recent updates or updates on bootup) and the G2 cockpit view was all over the place!  Tried different aircraft but same result.  Checked the settings - and yes, you guessed it - the sim had kindly changed some of my VR graphics settings to beyond my system's capabilities.  I put them back to how I remember them and all was good again.  

When there are SO many settings and they are so system critical, it's not a helpful 'feature'...

I get the shaking with bassy sounds. The bass shakes the whole headset, and then the image shakes. Turning the volume down helps a bit. YMMV.

How are you getting the sound through headset?

[jpe828 624]

What do you mean? The speakers on the headset... when the engine is very bassy it seems to effect the cameras and make the image shake. I noticed this first in the 172 with the soundpack. When I mute, it went away.... In the Spitfire lately, it does it just a touch at certain power settings, but it makes the image look like the airframe is vibrating, much like real life so I don't mind it.

Man, THANK YOU! 

 

I have been pulling my hairs  for the past 2 years, wondering about that shaking source. It make the sim unbearable to me. I have strong VR legs, but the constant heavy shaking made me nauseous after a few minutes of flying. It also makes it difficult to interact with dials and read them.

I've looked through every forum posts, articles, video about optimisation etc. I've read about masking side cameras, clearing environment data, reducing graphics, etc. NOTHING did it. I've searched for a settings that would cause camera shake effect, nothing.

Until I read your post, fine gentleman. Well turns out it is simply the bass of the G2  headset speakers shaking the headset, and probably poor software in WMR that would overcompensate for those vibrations.

If I turn the volume all the way down, the shake completely disappears. Since I want sounds, this gives me the option to use in ears headphones or using open xr toolkit to reduce the vibrations while keeping the sound lower than I would usually use. 

I've thoroughly enjoyed the flight I did yesterday because of your helpful post. Thanks again ! 🙏

good evening,

this app (OXRTK) causes VR to CTD, so I had to uninstall it, is there an alternative way to achieve stable view in G2 reverb?

many thanks.
