Well my first impression was that shimmering might have been improved... what is everyone settled on for AA? I use none in sim and 8x in FI? (no fxaa in FI).. seems to be the best.. still have to lower reflections to minimal though (i think)..

Took the Pa 28R for a flight in a local ortho area.. minimal shimmering.. frames maybe 39 fps / 90 (when not in VR my frames are around 55)..

Then.. bottom drops out.. tried DD NYC area.. started at KJFK.. frames around 33 (i think around 44 with just the 4k).. soon as you aim at the city it drops to single digits (34 on my 4k screen in 2D).. shimmering is a massive mess (still).. unusable in this region (DD NYCX works ok in p3dv4)

All of this with clear skies.

(im using rendering options plugin / ultimate mod with preset #4 for reference)

edit: if i remove the rendering plugin.. i can get around 27 fps max near NYC (24 on average though), barely usable.. then the shimmering.. if i set the sim to 4x from none, it helps tremendously, but the framerate drops to 15 fps.. this even with setting msaa to disabled in FI. Side note.. in all this im using the highest sampling res of 3840.. i may drop down one notch and try again with AA still at 4x in sim. Lowering the sampling to 2880 and leaving 4x AA on, is almost as bad quality wise as 3840 with No AA in sim shimmer wise.. frames went up to 24 though from 15.

If you turn off HDR it does help on the frame rate, but the shimmering even at AA of 16x is terrible.

I guess what this boils down to, is that for hard hitting areas, they will likely be unplayable in VR with 4x sim AA (which is needed).

Also. Possibly setting the fi ini to 5120 2880 and turning AA off might be another option I read on here. May explore this

Thank you for the new Flyinside version!

Just been flying around in the Bell 407 for about 45 mins with XP11.10b4 no problems whatsoever apart from a couple of slight pauses - still need to look into those. My Nivida driver is quite old 382.05 (current version is 388.00). I will update and see what happens.

XP settings
Vis Effects: HIGH
Text Qual: MAX
AA: 2xSSAA+FXAA
Num World obj: MED
Reflection detail: MIN

Flyinside settings
Resolution: 3840x2133
MSAA & FXAA: DISABLED

]Thanks a lot. Very happy with the new version. It is faster than it was with 11.05. I now have 11.10b5 and it works well. I tried that New York scenery and it's a bitch. But since I use Process Lasso, FlyInside stayed above 90 without ASW and the sim was smooth enough to enjoy the flight. That is the worst case. Everything else is terrific. Great job!!!
I have a thread in the Xplane forum - Rendering Options and FPS - VR Settings for Oculus Rift - where I specify the settings in nVidia, FlyInside, xPlane and Process Lasso. Some might find it interesting...

I just discovered an interesting detail. The handling of external windows is greatly improved. I used to have a very hard time locating Little NavMap and to change it's zoom I often had to take off the goggles. Now it works really well and it's commands respond in VR.

How did you move your external windows in flyinside. I use my oculus touch controller to click on the move icon around the rim of the window and it does not move the window around. How did you do that?

In the frame around the window there are 4 icons. The one all the way at the left is the Move icon. Use the little blue dot from FlyInside. Put it on the Move icon and drag the window into place.

I am using Oculus touch control and when I am using them, the little blue dot disappears. I guess flyside does not support Oculus touch to move those windows for the x-plane version.

I have a video on YouTube about controlling xplane in 3D. I have tried the virtual hands, but don't like them. I prefer the mouse and the blue dot.

BUGS: I have started a new thread titled "Bug Report - New Beta" in which I report issues as they occur. I don't know how to reach the programmers, so I hope they are watching this.....
