  1. Hi thanks for the reply, but the issue is that when I follow the procedure, it wants to install the WHOLE game again.......all 124 GB of it, which obviously, I dont need to do do I? Or is it the case if want to run the Beta, then you need to install the whole game again? I thought that running the Beta just involved a mandatory update ? I am using the Xbox insider Hub....I go to previews, select that, then select go to store ( as per the instructions) then the store App opens and if you press install, it asks where you wnat to install it and it needs 124GB...... Thanks
  2. I have found how to get the beta, have installed the xbox insider hub, I pressed join on the preview for MSFS, but the next option seems to be installing the game again via the hub, which I dont want to do...... What am I missing? The instrcutions I found online (https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/how-to-participate-in-the-public-beta/480099) say it should give you a mandatory update at this stage.....which I did not see? And then a small update within the sim? thanks
  3. I grabbed opentrack, but dont see the track ir hardware anywhere in the input options?
  4. Hi, I am experimenting with VR in the sim, and having some issues getting decent performance, which I should noyt be, given my hardware ( see signature) I have followed some youtube guides and am fairly savvy in setting up VR, having been through a world of pain getting it running right in DCS!........All the forums ect say that VR is MSFS is actually OK, but I am yet to find that sweet spot. I started off using my Vive pro 2 but gave up as nothing I could do made it run any better than around 13 FPS.......So i swapped in my G2 and its better, but still...... After following this you tube guide I tried VR, but it still pretty slow, especially out the side windows.....so I changed the render scale to 60 from 80 and teh terrain detail slider down to 100 I started up the sim in normal mode and then when in flight switched to VR....it was great, really smooth and still looked fine. it was the same flight I had been using for testing but then after about 5 minutes, it suddenly stopped performing well and reverted back to previous bad performance.....without me douing anything...... I cant figure out what may be going on. Is there anyone with a similar spec PC and G2 who can advise on ALL settings, from nvidiua control panel to steam VR and in the sim. I was not expecting this degree of difficulty in getiing decent performance from my hardware, the web is full of people on lesser rigs getting perfectly acceptable frame rates and graphics.....!! Very frustrating! Thanks in advance! Mark
  5. cool, thanks!

  6. Hi, I have done all the steps such as making sure track ir software is updated , game list updated etc and set my profile in the software for msfs....In the sim, my track ir shows in the controller options menu, along with all my other peripherals. But in the sim, I have no head tracking. Do I need to set it up like the other controllers, IE setting axis etc? I have scoured the net and cant see any threads or guides about this. Can anyone advise please? Thanks!
  7. Hi, just started using my VP2 with MSFS and having trouble getting performance at an acceptable rate. My PC is an AMD 5900x 12 core, 64GB ram and an RTX 3090, so no shortage of horsepower. However, despite pretty conservative settings, I am getting around 14 FPS and frame times in the 60's for the GPU and the 40's for the CPU. With all the latest updates etc, and 2020 supposedly VR friendly, I was hoping for better. The same set up runs DCS in VR at around 45 FPS and 20ms frame times, with pretty high settings. So I am a bit stumped as to why performance is so low..... Anyone here got a similar spec PC and using a VP2 who might advise? Thanks
  8. Hi, just installed the sim......can’t seem to get my trackir5 to work in the sim, could not see anything in the options...can anyone advise -lease? Thanks
  9. Sorry guys, was just me being stupid.....I was not using the right key.....
  10. Hi Rob, I am using sli and notice you refer to SGSS & MS..... are these types only available using Nvidia inspector and do you think NI is a must for using? If so, do you have a list of recommended settings for 2 GTX980 ? Currently running MSAA at 4 and vsync, with FXAA & SSAA both off...... Thank you
  11. Thanks for the advice David, but how can one set of default settings possibly be correct for all the different hardware set ups etc that possible users may have.........? There are like 40 different settings any one of which could have and does have a big effect lord knows how many combinations that is..........and any number of combinations of more or less powerful cards, monitors, GPU memory etc........the default settings cant be right for all of those......not to mention NVCP, for example, do you need to set anything there, or leave it default ? What am I missing here? I like to understand what I am doing........and I dont understand how this could be. Also, I tried the sim when I first installed the new system build and NVI without changing anything and that was where I got the worst performance. I tweaked a few settings and managed to get it about 20% better, but that was it.......... rgds, Mark
  12. Hi, I am starting another thread as my last request for help got lost in sea of replies slagging off win10 and people saying told you so...... Basically, to all people running win10 and an SLi setup, would you mind sharing your NI, NVCP and in game settings, as my P3d install is running at around half the speed it used to before I updated to the final build. Used to get around 50 FPS, now around 25. I know it can work very well, I had it working very well, but the elusive combination of correct settings eludes me for now...thanks PS, I have looked on Robs's site, but there are 2 different pages of NI settings there for 2 drivers, neither of which I am using ....(353.62)
  13. Damn I wish.....same drivers and I cant get much over 25 FPS, when I was getting 50 -60 on previous build / driver combo's....... Would you mind giving details of all your settings for me to try please? (NVCP, NI and in game) Thank you
