Help with VR Settings

[Jarhead0331]

Hi all…I’m a dedicated DCS VR pilot taking a break to get back into IL-2 after a long time away. I recently booted into IL-2 and was surprised to have unusually low FPS, somewhere between 25 and 35 on average. I’m running with a Pimax 8KX and below are my system specs.  In the Pitool, resolution is 1.5 and FOV is Normal. Parallel Projection is off. Steam VR global SS is 100%. One problem I noticed is that on my monitor, the VR image is displayed for both eyes…this is different in DCS. Could this be holding FPS down? What about in game graphics? I don’t see any VR specific options. How should they be configured? Thanks so much!

Clouds have been changed. Try running High Preset, Clouds at High, and Shadows at High (none of these options on Ultra). I recommend fpsVR so you can dial in your system.

 

The CPU should not be a bottleneck, I got the same.

 

P.S. Nor the GPU, it's more a performance issue with the game in certain situations, especially at high resolutions.
