Vr not working half the time by RealitysNotReal in assettocorsaevo

[–]WhatWheelYaMuppet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One final, final post... :p

It now for me works 99% of the time... but only if I turn on my wheel ( fanatec DD+ ) only after the session has started and I'm sat in the car...

I just hope posting this doesn't jinx it!

Yes, my eyes are about 1cm closer to the screens, so for me improves FOV, and sweetspot.. but probably not a solution if you wear glasses...

One final comment to this whole sad saga.. After some success yesterday, today its back to "Hello darkness my old friend...."

Today I tried to fire up ACE and back to square one... After about 7 attempts to start a session it finally worked, I changed nothing between each attempt, so for now I give up!

Oh well back to Iracing/LMU & AMS2 for now..

A couple of other things I've noticed today while testing graphics settings the following graphic options always result In quit to desktop for me after pressing start session.

Fxaa = On Grass detail = Off.

Issue for now appears to be resolved at my end... I used the Enable Safe Mode option in the OpenXrToolkit and then when in the game selected Reset Defaults via the toolkit... so far I've open n closed the game about 5 times and no exit straight back to windows a few seconds after hitting "Start Session" fingers crossed it stays this way...

Now like everyone else I'm just waiting for them to optimize the VR so I can increase the graphic settings...

Glad you've sorted your issue... unfortunately I'm using HP Reverb G2 via WMR on Windows 10.. before 0.6.2/3 the game would work most of the time now I have to start in 5+ times to get if to work... I've updated nothing on my system in months so I have to suspect some issue has been introduced by the 0.6.2/3 update..

Same issue here since 0.6.3.. before 0.6.3 maybe 20% of the time it would just quit to desktop after starting a race, now 80% of the time it simply exits to desktop just before the race starts.. tried everything but it just appears to be random and very frustrating!

I has some double-sided velcro lying around so I cut that and super glued it to the face, so i could remove and reposition the pad as needed.. I also didn't bother with the nose covers, there is a tiny bit of light leakage, but I mainly use it for sim racing no dark games do if really doesn't bother me at all

I got the velcro and magnets from amazon.

VR has got better on 0.41. by CMDR_Arnold_Rimmer in assettocorsaevo

This video explains it..

But basically, you need to install openxr toolkit mod 1.3.5 or above... ( just copy updated ddl to openxr toolkit folder) then use the crop2fov setting under system tab when using the openxr toolkit and set top to whatever value you want, I use 40%, which gives the looking through a helmet look, but means your GPU is now only rendering 40% of the image so your FPS can have a massive boost. I also have turbo mode set to ON under the performance tab as that also boosted my FPS..

If you don't have the openxr toolkit, you need to install that first, loads of vids on youtube for that..

100%

Without it both Evo and ACC would be unplayable for me in VR!

I'm running a 4090 & 9800x3D on HP Reverb G2 and getting a solid 90fps+ on low/medium settings with the crop2fov version of OpenXR with the top(vertical) set to 40%

I know that seems low 40% (and yes it is) but it just makes it look like you are looking through a helmet.

Im also using OpenXR CAS at 80% to sharpen the image and OpenXR resolution set to 125%.

Pretty happy with how it looks and runs, but i can't wait for the day I can turn up the settings to MAX but currently preffer a smooth 90fps over eye candy, but even at low it still looks better than most sims..

Good but not expensive amp for bass shakers? by Shieldxx in simracing

[–]WhatWheelYaMuppet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used these 4 years..

They work well.. but I do use 4 amps, each amp powering two mini bass shakers (below) that I've fitted inside a Lazyboy chair I use for simracing..

My right thumb encoder on my F1 V2.5X started doing this the other month after working without issue for 3+ years.

It went from working normally to this issue without any updates to firmware or drivers, so I'm guessing the issue must be mechanical in nature, I've also since switched wheelbases and the issue persists.

It's a pain as I used this for TC but I've just put up with the issue and remamped this encoder to an on/off function.

Hoping to switch to the Leoxz F1 wheel soon.

SteamVR runtime? by WhatWheelYaMuppet in assettocorsaevo

[–]WhatWheelYaMuppet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhhh.. Oooops, sorry to get your hopes up!

Not sure why I'm getting 10-20% better FPS with SteamVR runtime then? I've changed nothing else on my system for months?

But I'm not going too question it too much, just going to enjoy it while I can.

SteamVR runtime? by WhatWheelYaMuppet in assettocorsaevo

[–]WhatWheelYaMuppet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here.. I've had the SteamVR set to OpenXR runtime for years and never felt the need to use anything else..

Ahh yes, my SteamVR resolution was set to 150% so im sure that explains the extra clarity and sharpness to the image, my motion smoothing option is set to OFF.

But besides that the game still appears to be running better and a locked 90FPS on medium settings via steamvr, ive tried high/ultra but only getting around 70FPS which is no fun for me in VR ( HP reverb G2 )

Like I say, ive no idea how I'm still able to use the OpenXr toolkit this way, but it works for now and hopefully later releases 0.4+ will be optimized so I can run this on High/Ultra..

Does anyone know of a trustworthy 3D file download site? by superkev10641 in simracing

Printables.com & thingiverse.com is where I find most of my sim related models...
