[VR related] Just read about this today, set the Dream Air to 90hz (was 72) gave it a go and it seems to work! Not sure what the deal is as the game reports 45FPS and the app a steady 90, but seems very smooth, see no artifacts... https://github.com/djules75/OFXR-Bridge/releases

I would like to see latency, the reprojection should work better that this. Anyway there are same issues with the image like duble objects (ghosting). Might be good for static environment like MSFS24 but not for dynamic CFS.

Just so your aware there's a bug in Pimax Play affecting VRAM that doesn't play well with that bridge.

Maybe they'll eventually get it worked out and it'll be worth a look, only affects you if you try using it in openXR, should work OK in steam and openVR.

I'm guessing that would explain the increased issues I saw when I tried it. I wonder if a same/similar cause affected VectorVR for me too.

There is a bug with Cheeky when I turn the new overlay feature on in vectorXR, eye tracking won't work, the F8 won't open it.  Also if the vectorXR layer isn't over the Cheeky the game none of my directX 12 games will fire.  So there is a bit of conflict in the mix.

That's right, I noticed that too; for example, I had trouble launching MSFS 2024.

Hello. I just tried it, it seems not bad at all. Of course there is some slight ghosting on fast objects like side looking a f86 when it is at your 3 in head to head, but as soon you are behind him, ghosting is not so obvious. I did not see any issue for ground attack, it s seems to me a good option to overcome fps drops due to CPU load. What is missing is a way to turn it on/off during game.

You have anyway to be in a sweetspot. My current settings worked fine, but as soon as I tried to re enable some items like shadows, mirror, or even AA then I had a lot of ghosting. So this is a solution to maintain fps in CPU bound situation but not a solution to set graphic options a level up...

New version is out, from the author on MSFS2024 forum:

"Hi, I just released a new version of OFXR that fixes issues for non SteamVR users. It’s likely to fix those unstable framerates you had, which is a sign of OFXR not working as it should.

Also, there are multiple forks currently of OFXR. I am working with the original creator of the tool, Tigermaster. He is working on a future v0.3 and I am maintaining the v0.2 one.

v0.2.13.3 on my fork (djules75/OFXR-Bridge), is the latest version as of today, and should be the most stable to use.

I can’t post a link here to the github repository but a quick google search will take you there.
Please try it and let me know if it works better! If it doesn’t happy to help diagnose and improve for everyone!"

Gave it another go, with greater understanding. The VRAM issue isn't one with 32GB of VRAM, so I ran it in OpenXR regardless of the warnings and it ran fine. Thing is, it just can't do what it's supposed to do particularly well. Planes are moving too fast for it to be able to calculate the fake frames without ghosting. Low over the city, instead of very low-frequency bigger steppiness it gives ultra stutter. I much prefer the steppiness.

Anyway, was worth a punt to scratch the itch (graphics greed). VectorXR, same result (plus it broke stuff).
