This is gold man, thank you (and all the community) so much for your efforts! I put the FOV to 0.5 and most settings on ultra. I find that looking at reality through a rectangular tube is much more realistic than having a 105° view of a pixelated mess. Now I almost regret ordering the G2 which will arrive this week. Not sure my ryzen 3600x + 2070 super setup can run it as good as the Quest 2 with these settings.

[@paulphibbs7162]

Hi Steve, I’ve been enjoying settings in HIGH and ULTRA after your earlier video. I noticed you have reduced your VR in game settings to MEDIUM. Have you had a change of mind about this or is it simply necessary in heavy areas like Japan?

Due to Tokyo, I use this as a benchmark, if I can run here, I can run anywhere super smooth!

IGNORE! You answered in the video. Nice! I notice people are reporting less than half of the HMDs Hz setting? Even setting the Q2 to 72Hz. Don't we need to make sure we are at least getting half of the HMDs Hz? To get ASW? Or is it just accept judders until hardware catches up?

Thanks so much for these videos! Just what I need right now. I am a flight sim junkie and only fly in VR. I am getting ready to upgrade my headset. Originally, I was going to go with the Reverb G2 but there are so many negative comments on HPs website with seemingly poor customer support that I have started to lean towards the OQ2! I will be upgrading from the Rift S which I upgraded from the CV1. Any thoughts on the direction to go?? 90% of use will be in FS2020!!

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

This video perhaps needs to be updated.

[@MegaIronica]

Thanks for the settings. I like how you have two options for worst and best scenarios! My question is what was your final FPS? Also does putting the ASW at 18 force it to be at 18? I put it at 18 while getting around 25 FPS but when I use the option of showing ASW status in the HUD in Tray Tool, it says ASW available but not active. Why is that?

@@fastfrankee Hey guys thanks for your comments! Yes this will lock to 18 providing you can at least reach this FPS.

Hey thanks for the video!! Question: 72 hertz is a really uncomfortable experience for me, but at 80 hertz I'm really stuttery still. I have a Ryzen 7 3700X and a 2070S with 32 gb of ram, and its jittery even on low settings :/ any ideas?

[@jay6817]

I have both Wireless setup going, and now am setting up the newly received, fast cable, and trying these settings. For Wireless, which is more free'er in usage (head movement). I use Vridge, and as it has built in adjustments similar the Oculus Tray Tool (actually tons more) and is delivering great results. The link cable without the OTT in native form seems to be crazy high frame rate, until the next stutter every 10-20 secs depending how fast you move your head. It's like it has no limits set, cause well it doesn't (Without OTT) Am keen to now try with OTT installed an configured, just for comparison , but yeah Wireless is amazing. Full freedom of movement. Heck I can even do a walk around the aircraft like IRL.

[@jkdjose]

What you see on the headset and what you see on the oculus mirror are 2 different things. FYI... in case you are trying to match the resolutions you are seeing in youTube. I have a 3060 ti and it doesn't look that great on the headset.

[@mohamedelbashir1529]

That’s because the image is compressed in the vr. Oculus quest will have better resolution that oculus quest with link.

[@DelBoy1967]

Thanks Steve. I currently have a G2, thinking of sending it back as I find the sweet spot too small and the image outside of the sweet spot deteriorate so quickly it becomes distracting. I know the quest 2 sweet spot won't be as sharp/ clear, but is it bigger than than the G2. Also is there more clarity beyond the sweet spot towards the edge on quest 2 compared with the G2. MRTV seems to think so, I'd like to get your opinion.

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

Hey Delboy, first and foremost the Quest 2 is not as sharp in the centre as the G2, however you are right, the sweet spot is most definitely larger, as is the fov (out of the box), since the G2 has a large face pad that can inhibit the fov and to some degree, the sweet spot. Don't forget though the Q2 only has 3 positions for its IPD. Good luck!

[@spy2778]

I’ve been considering buying a VR setup for ages. One thing I always notice in these VR videos is that they are super choppy! I don’t mean stuttering from GPU overload, it’s more like a shakiness when looking around. It gives me a headache! Is that visible when you’re actually using the headset?

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

Not at all. It feels just like moving your head in the real world, the effect is the same as a GoPro attached to your head.

[@DaDin600]

I did everything you said and now flight sim will crash every time it opens the main menu. My computer is a little less powerful than the one in the video. I've been trying to play w the Nvidia settings to get it to run the game again but it keeps crashing. Any idea which particular setting is making my game unable to even run the menu?

[@zaelu]

I also switched (back) yesterday to newest nvidia driver as I found the myth with the driver from spring last year is totally bollocks my problems were only caused by VD (which I use for wireless) and not by SteamVR and/or the drivers. Also the latest drivers give the option in Windows Settings/Graphics tu turn off GPU scalling the old driver didn't.

[@mobias7]

Another great video. Thanks for sharing it. I've just been helping a guy out with his Quest 2 set up over on the FS2020 forums and one thing that some people might find helpful is that if you're using the Steam version of the sim do not run it through SteamVR. SteamVR just adds another unnecessary layer into the mix. Run the Quest 2 through the Oculus OpenXR registry instead. I think most people who have tried it said it performs better and is much less of a faff. Thats certainly what I found anyway. I'm just waiting on Nvidia releasing their new drivers. I still can't get rid of those little micro stutters. I'm using a RTX 3080 and with in the tray tool I can play with almost everything in the sim on ultra at 90Hz in the headset. It looks stunning and would be super smooth if it wasn't for a little stutter once every second or so.

[@JanStrojil]

Hi, Mobias7, I can confirm that SteamVR was literally unusable. But even with Oculus OpenXR I still struggle to get any usable output even with an i7@4G and a RTX 3070. :(

Hi Steve, the Quest 2 looks like a fantastic entry point for simmers. For flight sim it uses the pc link cable, but the Quest comes in two different configs, 64gb and I think 256gb....would this make any difference to performance or does the link bypass the internals? Stay safe.

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

Hi Mark I hope you are well. Even though the headset is doing some of the decoding work when on link, the only difference is the memory size which is only useful for standalone gaming.. so in other words, go for the 64gb version 😁

I have a Google WIFI mesh system with the 4th device directly connected to my PC and have made sure my Quest 2 is connected to that device VIA 5GHz. I do this by looking at the Quest 2's connection properties in the Google WIFI app.

[@DLGonzo-VR-Geezer-Cat]

@@VRFlightSimGuy The VR output normally output to the wired VR HMD is sent over the network to the VD app on the quest by the streamer app on your PC. The steamer app on the PC simulates the Oculus runtime so the PC thinks it has an oculus with touch controllers connected. It works pretty well. I make sure I have SteamVR set as the default openVR runtiime and then I go into VR once inside the plane. The VR Pilot has a pretty good video on setting it up.

I have heard/seen that there are much cheaper alternatives to the official Oculus Link cable, do you know whether these are any good? Also, should I hang on until I can get a better GPU (the GTX980 is from my previous build) or do you think the Quest 2 experience will be good enough with this older card considering I mainly only fly GA (C152, C172, C208) in rural situations, only visiting large towns and airports on occasion, and get 40FPS in such situations that I am more than happy with?

It should be perfectly fine and I've had it run fine before. I made sure it is using openxr with oculus in the registry instead of steamvr which fixed this problem last time I had it. But I don't know.

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

Something definitely isn't right there, check to make sure you are not super sampling twice (say in Oculus and Steam VR)

Does it shake that much?

I play Ryzen 5600X & RTX 3060 TI on ULTRA with these settings! Thanks mate!

6 cores?

Could you recommend some settings for me I have a Intel 10 400 32 gigs of RAM with a 3060 TI

Quest 2 in MSFS 2020? Forget it. These 08/15 glasses offer a bad image even in simple games :) You want to be able to read instruments in the cockpit. Currently only solution: HP REVERB G2. The VR glasses for SIMMER.

[@ooof5281]

If I do 80hz and the 1.7 in Oculus app, when I enable Link, that menu lags so much it’s so bad. Also if I ALT+TAB my menu/game lags and crashes too. Any idea?

[@danielmartinsson899]

I have the same problem. Everything lag like crazy. 72 hz work fine however.

[@ooof5281]

@@danielmartinsson899 yeah I need to try 72hz then and see how that handles.

Steve Maybe ordering my new PC tomorrow. I do hope you get a chance to read this one and a quick comment. Intel® CoreTM i9 Ten-Core Processor i9-10900K (3.7GHz) 20MB Cache 10GB NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 - HDMI, DP You zipped it mentioning your 1080 TI wondered what you were thinking of upgrading to. In your opinion what do you think these will give me the same quality as you’re getting. Regards Martin.

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

Hey Martin that's a very sweet rig! I'll be on the look out for something similar soon. Although I'm waiting to see what Nvidia's next move will be.

[@MondoRon]

no head tracking with my Oculus Quest 2 in FS. How do I fix this? Thanks!

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

I'd recommend re installing your device and going through the setup process. If this continues, I'd contact whoever you bought it from for a refund. Good luck.

[@ur_round_next1216]

Nice video mate..I check the HP store every day and the G2 i still cant Pre order right now...Anyone know when Pre orders start up again?? Im in the UK buy the way

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

Sorry to hear. Might be worth ringing HP tomorrow and seeing if you can order direct. Good luck 🤞

[@ur_round_next1216]

@@VRFlightSimGuy Cheers for the reply and thanks ..I might just do that worth a shot..:)

[@mobias7]

The last time I heard they were saying later in February. That might have changed though. I'm still in two minds about the G2. I had my heart set on one and only bought a Quest 2 as a stop gap until they become more easily available. My plan was to sell it and buy a G2. Not sure I'll do that now.

[@ur_round_next1216]

@@mobias7 Good to hear if February is the case.. ill be keeping my quest 2 tho as i play beat saber ect thats where the quest comes in handy on the tracking...For my sims tho i want to G2...I did email them yesterday not heard nothing back as yet

i cant get my quest 2 to run this sim at all :(

Can you please do an updated tweaking for the g2?

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

To be honest very little has changed from my previous video 👍

[@PascalQNH2992]

so strange the Oculus app is detecting my Meta Quest 2. But FS keeps saying there is now VR set detected 🤨

[@AttkBeast]

You probably need Steam VR installed.

[@paradisegunshot]

is it even doable with a 1070TI? my CPU is 10700K, and i have 32GB RAM.

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

No, Airlink is very power hungry. You'd be better off with a Vive Pro 2 or Reverb G2

[@SnakeHelah]

Sadly this doesnt work for me at all. Any settings I tried do not work for link for me. I am going to have to try also VD. But with link, I can't play msfs2020 with my 3070 at all. I also have 3700x. I am just about to give up using link. The problem is, I turn on the performance visual HUD, and it's showing -100-300% performance headroom. And frames are droppping literally into the thousands, no matter which settings i go for that is what I get via VR MSFS2020.

[@jesusrv2009]

Have you try to apply the Oculus Tray settings once you are inside VR mode ?

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

Sorry this hasn't worked for you

[@eseagente]

I've had lots of problems with link, also using an rtx 3070, but with a ryzen 5 3600x and 16gbs ram. Performance is really unstable, sometimes it works amazing, others its unplayable. I just tried virtual desktop for the first time today and had a like 70% increase in performance. A bit of compression artifacts due to not messing with the setting, but otherwise flawless and with no jitter at all. Are you using the original link cable? let me know if you manage to actually get link working

[@SnakeHelah]

​@@eseagente I did get link working but im not completely sure which one works better TBH. Msfs2020 is just hard to run in VR, especially for 3070. are you pushing the max resolution? I kind of want to find playable setting for the 1,7 resolution that is the max that the quest 2 can give, because it just looks amazing. But i dont think 8gb VRAM of the card is enough. I have a 3700x. I did find a 30 fps locked experience by turning my settings to ultra/high and 100% scaling in game, but i was running 1,3 or 1,4 res in the oculus settings (for link i mean). It was the smoothest experience overall, least visually glitchy, but it wasn't as clear as using 1,7. I really am not sure what to do.

[@SbSdude]

@@SnakeHelah I have pretty much the same config as you (3700x, RTX 3070, 32gb RAM) and I just couldnt get it stable using 90mhz. I found VD too laggy but may be due to wifi interference (although on 150mb connection) so I want to try that again. In the end I had to bump it down to 72mhz and 1.5 Oculus app rendering, which was a bit of a revelation as I could maintain 25-35fps at medium-high settings. 0.75; 0.75 fov, adaptive resolution off, ASW disabled and forced 45fps. Tokyo at 2500ft gives me about 30fps. HAGs and Game mode off. I definitely concur about the 8gb VRAM, which is where lesser cards with 8+ seem to perform better and until FS2020 is optimised better I think we're stuck

[@j_zhengli]

Thank you for the info, but I'll stick with 0.3x render scaling and my gtx1650

[@tea.edits.ae.]

thats going to look blurry

[@segredosdotiosam9989]

Do you see other planes when flying in VR mode?

[@declanturner4245]

If on multiplayer you will, not sure about ai aircraft as I have it turnt off, but other online players name will not show up for some reason

Probably a good call. The Q2 needs a lot of juice in link mode.
