AMS1 working in VR

Honestly sounds like ASW kicks in. Have you actually checked your fps or do you go by what you see/feel?

 

Hello, everything was working perfectly, and now I only have 20 FPS with my 3070 and PIMAX 5K+. I don't know if it's the nvidia drivers or the new version of steamvr

 

I don't think that one is to blame since I've got it disabled in the Oculus Tray Tool already.
I haven't checked the FPS, I'm just going by what I feel. I'm extremely sensitive to low FPS, and I don't think that is the question here.
When I'm driving and when I'm looking around from an open wheeler cockpit, everything is pretty smooth. No jerkyness.
You know those microstutters when AI cars colide?
That's what I'm talking about, it really looks like a limitation of the GMotor itself, I don't know...

 

I feel you buddy, Steam VR update is a pain in the you know what.

If only there was a way to disable it permanently.

 

Try steamvr beta, I'm getting better fps with it

 

Tried, but with no luck, thanks anyway

sorry don't know why it posted the images twice.. I'm new to this stuff, I'm using steamvr beta btw

 

I would recommend to use the Nvidia profile inspecor to set up Sparse Grid Super Sampling AA (SGSSAA) . You should get a flicker free experience with it. The 8x supersampling for transparency you have set up is not ideal in comparision as your MSAA is just at 4x.

Try this settings:
Retrolux Reshade Automobilista

 

Yes. Set AF 16x in Nvidia Control Panel (can leave it at 16x in-game too, doesn't cause issues). Then use 4x MSAA + 4x SGSSAA. You can try 8x MSAA + 8x SGSSAA but that is considerably more demanding than 4x + 4x and the image quality improvements it gives is tiny.

Thanks for the Retrolux Reshade link. I'm going to try this. I normally don't use any of the AMS1 built-in SweetFX profiles but I'll download Reshade and try it. What happens if you use Reshade and SweetFX at the same time? Do the 2 programs conflict with each other? I'm not planning on doing that but I'm just curious.

 

Yes 4xMSAA + SGSSAA is enough as 8x differency is not very noticable. Mixing sweetFX and reshade is not recommended and often causes issues like blur or other side effects. So follow the install instructions (readme.txt) closely to disable the build in sweetfx and prepare it for VR + Reshade. Hope you will like the enhanced clarity you will get

 

Anyone having issues with the latest version of Steam VR ?

I keep getting: steamvr failed to initialize for unknown reasons. Error not starting vrserver for background app (121) (121)

I wish we could use opencomposite with AMS 1 , in order to avoid using SteamVR all together.

 

Sorry I can't help, but do you know when the update came out? (so I can avoid it if possible)
Have you managed to solve your issue?

 

hello
I am both AMS1 and 2 user but focused VR on AMS2 so far. I will try to mod AMS1 in coming days and as I have a RTX3080, would you say this CP and NV inspector settings apply for both Games?
thanks in advance

 

For me the only way to get AMS 1 working in VR now is to Start Steam VR first through Steam .
Then start AMS afterwards. This however has come at the cost of performance , with annoying random stuttering that wasn't there before.

 

Thanks for your reply! This kind of thing is so infuriating...

 

For me AMS vr works for the best, but there is still a small problem...

Menus screens are duplicated in different size. I use Pico 4 with SteamVR

 

Due to lack of space on an SSD I moved AMS1 to another disk. Since then it no longer works in VR. I uninstalled everything, reinstalled...nothing. I'm scared

 

Is this VR-plug in still available for download somewhere?

 

Link is in the OP
