If you have a AMD GPU, Pimax is not for you. It is bad enough that I ordered this in May and it just arrived 3 days ago. In the three days I have had the Pimax Crystal Light, I have not been able to get my computer (Ryzen 7900X3D, Radeon 7900 GRE) to recognize it and start it up. I have left 2 tickets with Pimax support and I have received 2 notifications that no one is at their desk. No one is on Discord for Pimax. No one answers Pimax chat except to tell you to leave a ticket. This product and it's creating company are far below acceptable.

Your swappable cockpit units are a brilliant idea. Almost like swapping steering wheels for sim racing you’re doing it with full front panels 😂. From the video it looks like the leap support is MUCH better than what I saw from a couple years ago. I thought support was more or less dead in DCS but it looks like they haven’t stopped. Are you just using the VR hands as a guide to help you hit your actual button panels, or are the vr hands set up to actually trigger the button presses?
@tallymouse21 күн бұрын
@kornykidd0 Thank you! I am using the hand tracking as a guide to lead my fingers onto the real buttons.. it's now +/- 2-3mm so works very well. It's very immersive, and even when crazy high quality MR comes along in the coming year, I think I would still prefer this:. An MR cockpit doesn't have shadows and the sun tracking across it, just the normal illumination of your room!

I have a an RTX 3080. I tried your settings for DCS. It’s perfect. My FPS jumped from 40-50 all the way to 71, I’m really happy. For MSFS not so much. With your MSFS settings I got 10FPS. Here are a few oddities. In your OpenXR settings (v1.3.2 same as mine) after Foveated Rendering setting (which I set as recommended to Custom) I don’t get the entry “Eye tracking” set to ON. I can see in the sim that eye tracking is ON. Just reporting it here just in case you recognize something stupid I did… Second issue is that in the MSFS VR settings for “Shaddow Maps” I can go only up to 2048 with my RTX3080. Your setting is 8192. So my question is are the MSFS settings really for 3080? Thank you for your help.

One year later and two delivery-date promises broken and these pimax scumbags have still not fulfilled the order. Spoke to their online support this morning and "No delivery date available at this time". I was warned about this cowboy company, eye-tracking is not working (I've been through EVERYTHING) and I will NEVER again purchase anything from them. They are LYING fraudsters.

Think we need to see what the PSVR2 to PC adapter brings to the table, its a pure OLED headset with a resolution similar to the Reverb G2 but with a wider FOV so will not require a more expensive GPU and CPU upgrade to drive it, the Crystal Light will need a lot more processing power to fill those ultra hi resolution screens.
