Pimax Crystal Light Setup - MSFS2020 - OpenVR - AMD7800X3D - RTX4090 - VR-Rock Lenses - Wired2fire

IMPORTANT UPDATE : Thanks to a comment below I now have found out that I had not been aware of the separate VR graphics setting in MSFS2020. When you go into Graphics settings it shows PC at the top. Change that to VR and you can then adjust VR SEttings. Having done this I am now blown away by the VR Display in tn the Pimax Cystal headset. Thanks to Andy for letting me know, hadn't been aware of that setting before.
This video takes you through unboxing of Pimax Crystal Light and connecting to a PC. It talks about the software and drivers required to get OpenXR running which is the recommended VR environment to run MSFS2020 using the Crystal Light. It mentions the step required to load the drivers and be able to use MSFS2020 in VR. I am just a beginner in VR and only some experience in using MSFS200. I also cover adding VR-Rock prescription lenses at the end of the video.

Mate youve set up your settings wrong. 1. In msfs graphic settings, youve adjusted the pc list instead of the vr list. So.... when you are at the pc settings in msfs, press the arrow to the left or right. That will bring you to the vr graphic settings. Pc settings wont adjust your vr settings at all. 2. You have the same spec pc as me, and you can easily run the pimax at max res in the pimax settings. Balanced is way below what you can acheive. Let me k ow how you get on.

Andy. Thank you very much for that advice. Never even noticed there were different options. I'll change them properly next time I am in MSFS2020. Dont think I have ever heard a MSFS2020 VR KZbinr mention this before, hence why I missed it out.

Andy. Just got a chance to change the settings and blown away now. The graphics in VR are now amazing. Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know about the VR Graphics Settings Options

@@SkyenetT999 That's great news! Really pleased your getting the best out of your system. The 7800x3d and 4090 combo is awesome isn't it. I can highly recommend the "auto-fps" app also. It can save you 10 to 15 fps. It works by dynamically changing your tlod as your altitude increases or decreases. With zero effect on graphics or scenery. I set mine to 120 tlod on ground and set a max tlod of 275. It's a total game changer. Let me know if you need any help setting it up or any questions you may have. Once it's downloaded it's set and forget, and dead easy to adjust if needed. Totally worth it 👌 Cheers and happy flying. Andy.

@@jamesleicher Decent now that pimax has just released its upscaling software for the pimax light. Should be good with that.
