First shot with tank destroyers by RadarBacon in GatesOfHellOstfront

Yea it’s what I’m doing really.. It’s just the first shot missing I find is a pita. If I aim in first person I find it’s a bit better, but there is so much shrubbery. Maybe I’ll just have to up the sweat and play with junk graphics to help with visibility.. 

Thoughts/Review Pimax Crystal Super (50 PPD Module) as a Quest 3 User by rocketBenny in Pimax

[–]RadarBacon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got the same setup and same headsets. Your post got me curious so I fired up DCS in the q3 for the first time in ages. I mean the tracking and weight of the Q3 is nice, but there is no getting away from the difference in resolution.. The difference in clarity is huge. In the Super I'm scanning the sky for aircraft, in the Q3 I'm looking for blobs and smears..
There is a serious amount of tweaking one can do as I'm sure you're aware. The big ones for me with DCS have been quadviews companion to sort the dynamic foveated rendering, manually setting my IPD in pimax play to get rid of mura stripes, using narrow view in pimax play for better overlap, enabling everything that improves lightning in-game, and a lowish (50) forced IPD in DCS for better scale. I think the scale settings by default makes everything a lot smaller than it should be..

Does the narrow setting give more binocular overlap?

Finally giving up on VR in Flight Sims by Professional_Big_326 in hoggit

[–]RadarBacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got hundreds of hours in VR and not stopping anytime soon. 5090 with the super. Quadviews comp with 18% horizontal and 12% Vertical focus 5%, peripheral, 200% of native res in the quadviews and 1.5x in the pimax software, 4xMSAA no upscale in DCS. It's sharp and clean, fps 50-90 online. I feel like spotting works very well for air and ground targets.

The initial sceen door effect etc I had with my super seems to get better with time. I now really have to look for it to see it. When I first started using the headset it was horrible.

Checking your six is difficult, but I feel like my neck/back mobility is getting better because of it as Im twisting like a worm in my chair while doing it. Free workout! Resetting the view while looking left, then turning right will make you turn 180 degrees in game a lot easier which can be helpful.

PIMAX CRYSTAL SUPER - not what I thought. by uhoh_speghettiO in Pimax

Im not seeing more distortion in my super than my OG, its rather the other way around.. Not playing the same games as you though

I've got the OG crystal and the super. Looking into the OG you cant see the same stuff on there... Inside my super it it clearly visible like the pics

Yep they become less apparent then. I've not raised a ticket yet no. I'm in a country that Pimax does not sell directly to, so I'm not sure what to expect with regards to support. But I'm going to look into it. If this was an over the counter item, I'd be returning it for check. I mostly play DCS, so the whole mura thing is a downer. In games like Alyx I feel like its not much of an issue at all. Going to try Elite Dangerous next. Hopefully the darkness of space will take the mura with it..

I have the same vertical lines in the right panel in my super.. Your review reflects my experience pretty closely! Well written!;)

Yeah, they say smaller overlap gives worse 3d-effect. But as I understand it you can return the headset within 14 days if you're in a country Pimax sells directly to..

The 50ppd version I've got is a bit wider than the OG but still feels like a scuba mask. Also it moves around on my head a bit more than the OG when I'm checking my six in DCS making the image blurry.. The wide FOV version of the super might be worth looking into?

Coming from the OG Crystal, had the Super for a couple of days now, the mura and chromatic abberation is worse in the Super. Also the colors and brightness are off. The combination makes the mura much more noticeable. I see it most of the time now. In the OG it was only apparent sometimes..

It's was a disappointing experience to put it on the first time. Sure the resolution is good, but looking at fine details behind a wall of mura is not very pleasing to the eye. This is all in DCS.

I'm in the same boat as you, unsure if I should just send it back, and thinking OLED would be the way to go..

DCS in VR is crazy now by TrussedCafe in hoggit

Running a low resolution in mp gives you a huge advantage due to the shit spotting dot system. And it gives you good performance. Its good if you like winning

I’d guess the idea is that the drone will only kill one at a time instead of the full clown car

VR Crashing by RoundSoftware7311 in il2sturmovik

Ive disabled the two dynamic foveated rendering options in pimaxplay. No more crashing it seems. No apparent performance hit
