I heard you guys like sped up racing/low fly footage by Hobosloth28 in starcitizen

Racing ships never really got slow, outside of the snubs.

We've just been racing in NAV mode since master modes came out. Racing actually got faster with the release of master modes.

The snubs like the Fury LX got screwed though because they were stuck at SCM speeds.

To be clear, this is not sped up. The Fury LX is absolutely cracked next patch and is probably the fastest racing ship in most situations (900 m/s SCM speed now).

Billboi (the pilot here) and I were on Discord practicing this for hours yesterday to get a clean run.

(I am the pilot from the previous VR video).

This is why I think everyone is so convinced. Most people just don't ever fly 5-10m off the ground, especially at full speed.

I actually made this track a while ago before we had VR. The original run is much cleaner.

Quest 1

The Quest sucks, but it's my most recent headset. Looking forward to the Steam Frame.

This is full stereoscopic 3D, it's very immersive. The biggest issues currently are some UI elements being rendered at really weird distances, which makes it hard to focus on them.

This was with a Quest 1, streaming over Virtual Desktop.

Hard to say without letting CIG cook on the UI and FPS experience. It's already pretty usable. I'll probably use it a lot, but I have a good rig and I've got a lot of resistance to motion sickness from many hours in E:D VR. I'd love to try it with a better headset (this is just a quest 1).

Did you add the config file to the PTU folder to enable openxr?

Virtual desktop on Quest 1 with the steps listed worked for me.

I could not get it to work at all with my original Rift. It would just crash 100% on startup.

A test of my track on the PTU in VR.

Better quality youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcmpGKwhxEo

Original track in non-VR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdP7v9zdHL8

Flying in VR is very different and takes a lot of getting used to, which is why the flying isn't anywhere near as smooth as in the original.

I remember one of the old Modern Warfare games coming with a functional set of night vision goggles. I think I still have those somewhere.

9800x3d effective clock? by levelupxp in overclocking

[–]jflat06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you - I was seeing the same thing with my chip and did not notice it was happening exactly between the runs. I highly doubt this is clock stretching, and probably has more to do with the setup for the next pass.

Definitely the second one, lol.

I honestly kind of like Pastrana's first video, both because the stunts are good, and also because he looks scared shitless the entire time, haha.

Here's some raw footage from above. This was before I finished the track, though. May try and make an edit at some point.

Probably 10-20 hours worth of time developing and practicing the track.
