Got my Widmo lenses yesturday and I love them. No more contact lenses
Iâm fairly new to flight sims and VR. I picked up the O+ and am taking it slowly as the motion sickness has been pretty nasty. What should I expect for FPS? It looks good, but Iâm seeing 45-50 FPS in DCS on low settings. On the 1920X1080 monitor I get 100FPS on the highest graphics settings.
- I7-6700K @ 4 GHZ
- 32 Gb Ram
- GTX 1070
- Samsung 850 for Win10 & DCS/IL-2
Also any tips on how to beat the motion sickness? Iâm just taking it in small bits for now.
Motion sickness is very unpleasant, but keep at it just as you are now. Just build up your time âunder the hoodâ a little bit at a time. You should find that you will soon be able to endure longer sessions. Definitely end a session if you start to feel the onset of feeling queezy.
As for getting the best performance out of your O+, @fearlessfrog helped me out with this just the other dayâŠ
On top of what Fearless said, you should enable reprojection for WMR.
Here is a link to a post on the ED forums that shows how to do thatâŠ
I hope that helps, and welcome to Mudspike!
Welcome @Yooper,
I just followed the instructions above and had a little boost in fps and a beautiful experience to boot. The Samsung takes a little extra time and patience to setup but its worth it. As its been said. Take it easy with VR. You will get used to it. BTW, your fps is very good place to start.
Have Fun!
Awesome, thanks folks! If all else I 3D printed an IR headset and will get a TrackIR system rolling. I can do about 5 minutes of gentle, mostly level flight without issue. Any longer than that and I get a strange after feeling. (VR Hangover?) But thatâs up from just a couple of minutes so Iâm hopeful. Itâs just too cool to be able to turn and see things.
Thanks @komemiute! I work in a machine shop and the avatar came from one of the machine tool manuals.
Hehehe in Germany I witnessed the most amazing instructional video ever.
I canât recall the name but it was this crazy forklift operator.
âStaplerfahrer Klaus - Der erste Arbeitstagâ !!!
It is legendary.
Need to find it. We have a fork lift in the brewery and are very careful about who we let drive it. Those things can destroy a warehouse in about 5 mins LOL.
Add close-caption and auto translate and itâd make a passable safety video.
But, related to the topic, is there a forklift simulator 2019 VRâŠ
YEAH! Thatâs it!
Hey guys,
Just stopping in to say thank you. I got my strap for the O+ today. Along w the Widmo lenses it is a whole newer and better experience.
Thanks to BeachAV8R for the review and encouragement. Great stuff!!!
YeahâŠthey have transformed the O+ for me. The strap should have been part of the design all alongâŠnot sure why product engineering or customer testing doesnât reveal these things. Spend all that money on the technology and development and then ignore the easy partâŠreally weird.
Yup! So much better. No pressure on my face. I spent two hours in it today. Hard to do before the strap.
Does it relieve the pressure on your forehead?
Yes, for sure. The difference is night and day. No more Markâs on my face after playing. Before I felt as if the whole thing was suspended on my forehead. Now it feels more like a hat with a mask on. My head thanks me.
CoolâŠand you can use the headband to escape from prison in a pinchâŠ
Sir, you just saved 20 bucks and its just as comfortable⊠NOT!
