SteamVR - CRM won't change

[javelina]

Needing a little help.  I'd like to try my IL-2 with a CRM setting of 80%.  I've set SteamVR settings for video to "per application video settings", and I have IL-2 added into my non Steam game, and accessible via VR.  I've set the CRM to 80%, but when I'm in game fpsVR shows my SteamSS at 100%.  (I have motion smoothing "force always-on".   These are similar settings I have in DCS, I've no issue with toggling the CRM to any % with it.

What is CRM?

Note default Steam VR SS for the G2 is like 150% - or at least was last time I used a G2.

Hi Don,

 

in SteamVR, when I go into manage video settings for IL-2, it has a "Custom Resolution Multiplier".  In DCS, when I make changes to the CRM percentage, I see the same percentage reflected in fpsVR.  So in DCS if I have CRM at 80%, I see SteamSS at 80% in fpsVR.

 

I was just wanting to see if there was any FPS effect in IL-2, if I changed the SteamVR setting from 100% to 80%.  But right now, even with CRM set at 80%, when I'm in game, I still see SteamSS at 100% for IL-2.

Ok keep in mind the per game SS setting is a multiplier of whatever your general SS resolution setting is.

I found why I wasn't seeing the changes.  In SteamVR -> Developer, My Current OpenXR Runtime was set to WMR.  When I reset it to SteamVR, I can see my CRM changes.  Now I'll be tweaking a little.  thanks for the pings Don!

 

Maybe the OpenXR Runtime changed to WMR, when I was tooling around in MSFS2020?

Yeah that could be.

Unless you are doing something unnecessarily complicated* in the way you start and play IL2 or DCS then OpenXR has no relevance to IL2 or DCS as they both use OpenVR.

 

* For example: installing the oculus runtime and opencomposite and then launching them through the latest ReviveXR beta which allows you to route all calls to the system's OpenXR handler. (Highly unlikely!)
