VR Discussions, Questions & Feedback

Can someone give me list what I need / how to setup to have the latest and greatest VR setup with Quest 3 + VD where I'm able to crop the FOV?

Got a new PC and previously I was using
- open composite
- openXR toolkit (non-modded with FFR, but no FOV cropping)
- Virtual desktop (VDXR, H.264+)
(I was able to get this working very well with the limitations of my old PC, steady 80fps, no stutters and all that)

Now the VD has the FOV Tangents, but those don't seem to work correctly with OpenComposite and not at all on SteamVR (at least for me) and I haven't touched the modded openXR toolkit with the FOVCroping feature.

I could use the way I was doing it before, but if there is now better way (definitely want either FFR or FOV croping to get better headroom for the game).

ps. I'm using the LAN adapter with quest, so it's definitely VD based solution and not Link cable.

 

I use Oculus Tray Tool with Link cable and i am quite happy. I modified fov, encoding bitrate, etc. It is flawless for me.

 

Follow this guide, the link for the OpenXR toolkit 1.3.8 (modded) is in the description. I use the same setup as you, VD over LAN cable on a Quest 3. The FOV crop saves much more performance than FFR, even at conservative settings. I use 70% vertical, 93% horizontal, no FFR at all, perfectly happy with it.

 

Okay, so there is still no way to use VD's own FOV tangents with AMS2, you have to use OpenXR toolkit and all that? (even with my old computer, I got good performance no matter the conditions with just tuning the FFR well (and some in game settings, like having reflections on low), way before there was this modded version with FOV crop functionality available).

 

I haven't tried VD's FOV tangents TBH, as I have set up the OpenXRtoolkit cropping before that was available and couldn't be bothered. It might work though. But the modded toolkit was super easy to set up
