Yes I noticed the black smear when simcar stopped but then I stopped looking for it as I thought I'd start notice it all the time

With its imperfections the dk2 is much better than I thought it would be & a great stepping stone to the CV1 in a year or so

I'll keep my dk2 as a momento as my first useable VR headset

everything tracking wise seems to work spot on for me,
I don't have the prediction turned on at all (in LFS menu)
or vsync

I can't seem to post pics in this forum

Scawen could you turn player's car shadows on in the first person view? They are currently turned off (to reduce GPU usage, I guess).

yes I noticed no shadows there too -although I'm new to LFS and didn't know if they existing before or now (only used LFS in the dk2 )
monitor setup disconnected now

worked fine for me

although I had to manually drag & drop the files,
(so I hope everything is active !?!%#?! )

couldn't find the "installer" that the instructions referred too

opps sorry, I meant s2 !


have edited lol

upgraded to s2

the open top V8 is very nice

I much prefer using the in-sim wheel now I use VR although I have a fab sim wheel with pro display etc (obviously this was what I looked at when using monitors) it's so nice to have a change!

switched to left thanks

we did this earlier I'm the week, it was fab & a total blast

I'm sorting a dedicated fast PC to host
(as on my PC although the fps was up there was some physics lost)

so we'll do it again hopefully next week

Quote from cmorosco :

Just recorded a video but it is hard to see. Will have to wait for it to upload but I can post a picture from the video.

that looks pretty bad, no I do not have this,
I am running at very high fps though,

what is your fps?
turn off AA and anything else you can just to eliminate anything that could be slowing your PC down,

I also assume you read and followed the setup (for LFS - dk2 ) instructions completely

does your PC run quick & pretty much trouble free otherwise?
sometimes I need to re-instate mine to keep everything super slick
(re-install windows fresh)
check to make sure LFS speed is running glitch free on your monitor just to eliminate any strange software conflicts

does your dk2 run the desk config demo without this problem -If it does then we know there isn't a rift hardware fault

can you do a video

(press a camera up to one of the dk2 lenses )

downloading !

......the stream of data joy never ends with LFS !!!!

do these texture packs make much difference in the dk2 ??
(noticeable)





Scawen

-Thankyou for showing me that the dk2 is fully capable of replacing my monitors and for such a great experience

I'm new to LFS and very impressed with VR implementation

is there an eta for the laser scanned track & tire updates + content texture update?


I'm happy to pay to upgrade to s2 & s3 if this happens etc

LFS could be a great mainstream up to date sim with these tweeks & additions

with so many other titles "in progress" this is a great opportunity for LFS together with its fantastic & leading VR support

p.s sorry to mention this again (for the devs)

be good if the next patch could simply allow unlimited fps cap

eg not limited to 100

I use uncapped (it seems to run at 333.3fps) but suspect that 151fps cap might be a good cap for me

-based on cap experiments with Iracing on different monitors in the past
121fps cap for 120hz & 181fps cap for 60hz always worked & felt the very best for me

sorry to sound as though on top of the total fantastic LFS - dk2 support there is a request lol

thanks

yes some demos I was getting that dreadful shudder

then (& again no idea what solved it) after fiddling everything totally butter smooth

trouble is with pc's there are 1000's of hardware configurations out there
so seems to take a while for problems to be sorted


anyway assuming you have a decent spec PC keep fiddling

p,s I run uncapped and no vsync (check your gpu control panel)
with vysnc things are not butter smooth

turn off AA & multisample (perhaps use low AA & no multisample in LFS once your happy with the way it's running)

maximise your fps at all costs for a lag free 1:1 fluid experience

most demos don't work on my setup

the desk config demo always work 100% -I assume this is working on yours?



I fiddled with different modes etc -then nothing worked so I reverted back to what I thought was the basic settings then suddenly some started to work including LFS (so I've not touched settings since) I'm referring to mainly nvidia control panel -extended monitor - both resolution HD (check rift is 75hz)

in rift config it's in extended mode

the rift software is still a tad sentimental it just takes some fiddling
(then leave it alone once you have working what you want to work)

it was really about 6hrs in the first evening of receiving my rift until got it going like it is now & still not entirely sure what it is I did ?!%#?!

does this also enhance the visuals in the dk2 rift ?

anyone tried this?

sorry I was referring to the "G" version (or closer to it)

that you've mentioned , so it was a LFS rift update

yes it's something I've dismissed before, but like you pointing a fan at my face (due to a rift) is actually a decent effect within its self !

I only really use open top cars too

I thought about putting something together -I think xsim can control it?

anyway keep us posted with progress

new update coming for the rift, might as well just wait for that

another update coming .....great!

worked no problem

a big thanks for the update, it's nice for them to keep coming

the replay system ....at last I can watch replays -thanks


I see you've done it this way to get implementation out quickly but it works totally fine, it's like watching a cinema screen


full spectator mode I guess is something different and would take a lot more
work

just one thing it's nice to have the 3d depth slider for the replay screen
is it a good idea to have this for driving too? or is there a particular 3d depth standard for the rift (that's suppose to match natural real world 3d) ???

latest patch gives replays great!

works great ! thanks for joining !


some good little races too !
