Thanks for the suggestions. I used the tip from the reddit post (adjusting the profile.json) together with the TruNite preset from the OpenXR toolkit. Now night flying is much better. Thanks!

I currently have a problem with my Crystal Light, which I only discovered recently as I started to do more night time flying. When it gets dark outside, I get terrible light bleeding/halo from all lightly illuminated elements in the picture. For example, when flying through clouds, then there is that fog/light bleeding around the entire window frame. Same with the armrests in the Fenix which are still slightly illuminated from the overhead panel. Therefore, night time flying isn't dark at all and the picture looks terrible. On the internet, there are so many people claiming that the Pimax Crystal Light has great black levels. Unfortunately, not for me. Does anyone know what the problem could be or how to solve it?

Just tried a flight with the Fenix in the new version. GSX not working. Opened the MSFS EFB to look at a chart and CTD. Rolling back to SU2.

Performance in VR is terrible with SU3 beta.

If you want to use VR, you have to be an SU2 beta. A lot of the problems (but not all) are fixed in SU2. However, performance is still underwhelming.

Still not fixed. Incredible.

When I check the box for foveated rendering in MSFS 2024 SU2 Beta, then the sim just crashes. Pimax Crystal Light user here.

With SU2 beta I have the problem that when I want to start a free flight, then the sim is stuck after I hit "Fly now". It doesn't crash, but it stays in the view from the top and never starts the flight. In some rare cases it works, but most of the times, the flight does not start. And I have an empty community folder.

I stopped the update and uninstalled MSFS 2024. Maybe, my settings still exist in the cloud. Since I just moved to a new PC, I still have the old install of MSFS 2024 on my old PC. Maybe those files will help to restore the settings. For now, I will just leave MSFS 2024 untouched and wait how this whole nightmare develops. What a mess...

Is there any way to cancel the update one it has started? But I checked and my Limitless folder is already gone. Thank you, Asobo, for this word not allowed again.

Hi guys, just a quick update from my end: I have now played around with the headset for quite some time and I'm mostly happy with it. When I turn down the settings and go for 90 Hz upscaling together with AMD FSR2, then I can even run the headset on my ancient system. Of course, at the expense of loosing the clarity for which the Pimax Crystal is famous for. So I have to build a new PC in spring, when the new generations of GPUs are out. That's for sure. I also ordered some new foam pads as well as counter weights from Studioform, which help a lot to better balance the headset. Together with the Pimax top strap, it is now very comfortable to wear. I only have one problem with the headset. And that is a small vertical distortion on the left and to some extent also the right lens. When I move my head from left to right then it is sharp in the sweetspot, then suddenly gets slightly blurry for a moment and then sharp again. I don't know if anyone else had a similar problem. @Calvin-Pimax: I already opened a support ticket. Hopefully, support can help me on this issue.

This was the key advice I already took from one of your previous posts. Without it, I would have returned the headset already. Now I just have to get a better face foam.

I finally managed to get the sound to work by reinstalling the AMD display driver. I'm starting to like the Pimax. The main challenge is really to get it to fit right. If it is not properly placed on the head, then the image is not great. But if it is, then it is a blast. Even though I have to use upscaling and fixed foveated rendering because of my mediocre system. My only problem left is, that the face foam is too small. I have too many gaps between the headset and my cheeks. I have ordered the 15mm face foam from Pimax. Let's see if that improves the fit.

Yes. But still no sound. In Steam VR I do have sound. But not if I just use Pimax Play.

I checked all these things, but still no sound in MSFS if I only use Pimax Play. However, if I play other VR games in Steam VR, then I have sound. Strange. @Calvin-Pimax: Do you have a suggestion what could be wrong on my end?
