My settings so far for Rift S

So… I have some test. What i have now.

SPEC:
i9900k (no O/C)
32GB RAM DDR4 2400
RTX2080Ti (no oc)
SSD m.2 for system and game
Oculus Rift S with beta software (v24)

Nvidia setting:

Oculus setting:

PPDPO for better readable

Ingame setting:


So running in newly installed game with B78X flying around KLAX at FL020.

Got 20-25FPS. No freezes. No shatters

Hey! I am no expert, and yet to turn on VR myself, awaiting headset. You are limited by Main Thread - the CPU. your GPU is in the 20ms that is good! Are you running 9900k at base 3.6 Ghz? You could push your 9900k to an easy 4.5 GHz. That might really help you. I have a 9700K I push to 4.9 Ghz with a Noctua cooler. I have a 1660Ti and will be be GPU limited. hoping I get 20- 25fps in VR… doesnt look good though.

It’s already @ 4.6GHz (TURBO)

Sure, I’m using Nvidia driver 452.06. The one that was launched with the release of the sim.

@TJUKiRacer - thanks so much for posting your settings! Before I used them, I was getting pauses every 1.5 seconds, making the sim unflyable. I just tried a circuit at KVNY (where I learned to fly), and wow, yeah!!
Thanks so much…I will explore more now!

I am getting bad performance with my Rift S in MFS.
I am running a 7700k at 4.8ghz with a 2080ti and 32gb DDR4.

Very poor visuals like difficult to read cockpit switches and the view outside not very good even at low altitudes I was kind of expecting to see good definition but suspect that a limitation of the Rift S. Strange thought because i have several games from the Oculus store that look stunning graphically.

After more tweaking I’ve changed now using the following settings, quick set up guide too

I am using the following on my rig :slight_smile:

  • Rift S (Oculus v24)
  • 9700KF @ 5.1ghz
  • 2080TI (driver 457.30 game ready)
  • 32gb DDR4 @ 3400mhz
  • MSFS on a dedicated SSD

NB: I did try messing around with the openxr but it doesn’t do anything I think that’s mainly for supporting the G2 out of the box.

I checked the public beta to get v24 of the oculus app. I am also running Nvidia driver 457.30, reason being the earlier one 452.06 won’t work with xplane vulkan (if you do run this too?) and the later versions don’t seem to work as well on the 2000 series graphics card drivers.

I applied the below to my Nvidia Profile for MSFS:

I have found the below the best settings similar to TJUKiRacer, but turning up the render scaling up to 120 but down the anisotropic to 8x and turning off super-sampling. May help others:

I force asw at 30 using the CMD below, I did install Oculus tray tool but getting better performance without the need for that running.

  1. Open OculusDebugToolCLI as administrator here:

C:\Program Files\Oculus\Support\oculus-diagnostic\OculusDebugToolCLI.exe

  1. Type in the following command and hit enter:

server:asw.clock30

  1. Verify you get the enabled message “Simulated 30 Hz display enabled”

I now get a fluid 27fps in most scenarios, I’ve tested this over London and NYC with some complex weather and I am happy with the results.

you know i was wondering what would make the gauges and buttons more readable an could not come across any suggestion from the community until now. THanks and ill try the ppdo thing. I only have a 1070 but oc’d to about 2Ghz core average on high load. i feel like you should be getting more fps like ~30 but you do have more aggressive graphics options than me. Im on everything medium with %100 resolution scale x16 AF (does this have a performance hit on VR? usually AF has no performance loss up to 16x on every regular DX11 game). getting like 27 - 30 fps flying 2,000 ft

I set up a vr zoom bottom on both joystick and throttle for this very reason. If I set it too high in game 150% it gets too stuttery. That gives me the ability for accuracy whilst not compromising smoothness for the rest of the flight.

Flying at B787/B747/A320 or any small aircraft? Where flying? Huge airport or small airport?

Great settings for Rift S. 2070S

rift s is 80 hz so 1/2 rate is 40 and 1/4 rate is 20.
the oculus tray tool doesnt have the option of 40 and 20, just has 30 45 and 18.
how are rift users using asw on OTT without the option of 40 and 20 being there.

on another note. any 3080 or 3090 users with the rift s? is 40 fps and smooth performance possible in the A320?

C:\Program Files\Oculus\Support\oculus-diagnostics

will test tomorrow and feedback on 3090 however i think the a320 747 and 787 need a few more updates before they will be smooth enough. When i have tried a320 i get egg timer on approach to airports

no not on my sytem ,card not maxed or cpu still struggles

After more tweaking I’ve changed now using the following settings, quick set up guide too.

YMMV depending on hardware but may help someone i list what I’m running in it.

Thanks a lot!

Thank you so much! It helped me a lot!

Currently on 1070ti, 9900K @ 5GHz , 32GB RAM, Rift S.
Will be upgrading to RTX3080/3090 and HP Reverb g2 if/when available.

But I am happy now with what I have. THANK YOU! Happy New Year!

what have helped me, and i’m surprised i haven’t seen this mentioned, is setting ASW to 18Hz instead of 30hz in tray tool after the game has started. example - you start msfs with 18hz in tray tool, switch to 30 and then back to 18hz - this still has some minor jitters here and there (i think its a game optimisation issue rather than VR) but the game is now somewhat smooth (definitely smoother than on any other Hz setting) and the render scale is on 80% with the settings more or less the same as in the .pdf mentioned above :slight_smile:

these are my specs:
i7 7700
16Gb Ram
Geforce GTX 1070 overclocked

I assume that 18Hz works for me due to my old graphics card and this might not be necessary for 2080 and newer users…

Thanks for all the great tips mentioned in this thread and in the forum, that really helped me from being almost unplayable to being quite enjoyable!

Hi, i get really good perfomance with those settings in GA Aircrafts. Does anyone has recommendations for A320X or CJ4 Mod? there the FPS tanks
