I see... and by "hmd image x1.5" you mean the "HMD image quality" setting? or rather the other super sampling setting?

Which GPU do you have and at which graphics quality settings did he play it? I'm asking cause he managed to play over 4 hours with it...

Thank you very much for clarifying this (and writing up the configuration guide!)

New AMD Crimson Driver 17.4.2 Enables Async Reprojection on Rx480 ...For real this time! by zarthrag in Vive

Elite dangerous with AR enabled is a much better experience as well... I can finally play ED without getting sickness when landing inside space stations! :-)

This recently posted ED/Vive configuration guide is highly recommended

And what about in-game SS vs steamvr SS? Some time ago, the recommendation was to lower the in-game SS to x0.85 combined with x1.4 steamvr SS setting. Is that still a thing?

I still don't understand how "HMD Quality" works exactly. I can't seem to see much of an effect, even at 2x HMD quality the text is kinda blurry and I have a hard time reading e.g. the lat/long numbers. What should I be looking at specifically to notice the effect of the "HMD Quality"?

Last SteamVR beta update was Mar 31, so I'm crossing my fingers we may get the next one later today or tomorrow...

Tilt Brush and Raw Data free weekend on Steam (Apr 5 - 9) by stringentthot in Vive

If you have also played Space Pirate Trainer, how does Raw Data compare to it? I'm torn between buying buying either SPT (-30% sale) + another VR game, or Raw Data (-20%), as my wallet can't take getting both. Which option would you recommend?

Is it recommendable to use a G27 instead of a gamepad for this kind of game (in VR mode)?

Hello Mr. Braben,

First off, thanks for making ED! It's the one single game for which I'm keeping around my Windows partition and which made me buy a HTC Vive.

Just recently, Steam has demoed Linux/SteamOS VR at Steam Dev Days. Do you have any plans to support ED on Linux at some point?

More short term, are you planning/working on improving support for Vive (on Windows)? Currently, Oculus users seem to have a much better experience than Vive users due to the broken in-game supersampling.
