what? Makes no sens XD
Alright I’ll try this out <3
With Smart Smoothing?
Ok, played around with various permutations of FoV (down to normal, then small), SS (down to 50%), Quality (down to low), Vive compatibility (on/off), Hidden area mask (on/off). Still no luck with the cut scenes. They seem to be hardwired to the view direction (like the Pimax logo when starting the HMD), but with the wrong distance, so I can’t really see what’s going on. Ok, the story isn’t so difficult to follow so far… Still, seeing things in computer games helps with immersion.
Yeah, there’s some weird bug where the game will report good frame times/FPS but it’s only actually rendering at 60hz. If you watch a frame by frame video it’s obvious
I play at 120hz with smart smoothing on yeah, works great that way.
oh Yeah, it is better!
I do notice some lags first time some assets are rendered:
- I shoot for the first time: lag
- I launch missile for the first time: lag
- I use repaire droid: lag
- I see capital ship: lag
So after 2min of playing around, I don’t usually get anymore lags, but it’s still very annoying for the first 2min XD

Lag and stutter are very different. I dont think that’s an issue with VR, but rather that the PC itself can’t keep up. Have you tried the same on a monitor to see how it’s running?
I have read the game does some decompressing and compiling after launching, each time, owed to its Consolero-architecture.
I then checked CPU and Disk demand right after starting it up.
It locked at 100% for CPU for roughly 1-2 minutes.

No I did not test on desktop, I was too happy making it works nicely with 120hz that I played all evening XD
I can’t believe they didn’t fix those damn stars. Those Playstation 1 stars pull me out of immersion so much.

Guys is there any way to use as a INPUT index knuckles 2.0 or hand track / eye track?
i dont have joysticks and HOTAS =(
Also, how i can CENTER vr in game?
Please advice! i, so dissapointed that there is no options for vr controlers(((
You cannot use vr controllers. This was mentioned before release. Only keyboard/mouse, HOTAS, or xbox style controller
To center view in VR, change the keybind for it on the keyboard
thank you!

It depends what you like to play
Half Life Alyx is AMAZING
Sim racing and flight sims are my favorites but theyre best played with wheel/pedals/HOTAS
And of course the usual games like Beat Saber are great.

Is there any game that supports hand track and eye track?
How did you get your hand tracking module already? Are you an original backer?
What works best with Pimax, Origin or Steam version?
Use SteamVR not origin

I’ve read this on the Steam forums: “You can force SteamVR to carry out motion smoothing via the per application setting”
Has anyone tried this on a Pimax headset with refresh rates other than 120Hz?
New patch is out today, the subreddit says it’s fixed the refresh rate glitch!! the big question is though, do we still need parallel projection mode?!
