Varjo XR-4 in DCS "Is it the master of the skies?"

I conducted a test with the Varjo XR4, which is currently one of the best, if not the best, headsets available. I tested it within the DCS Combat Flight Simulator and encountered several issues. For instance, I found that the headset is too bulky at the back.
I would love to hear your feedback on what I have made and if there's anything else you want to see or have tested. Check out my Discord to see the BF109K4 cockpit parts I created, which you can download for free and 3D print yourself.

Great video! At 75hz if you want to lock it lower, you'd be better off with 37.5, not 45. Best wishes.

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

I played around and it is now locked on 75.. And that works good.. Even put the focus on 1.4 in foveated

[@cnchobbyist991]

Thanks for the video. I'll be opening my XR4 package today :)

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

Nice let me know how you like it

[@mikewright2858]

How did you order it? Are you a business? Asking for a friend ... ;)

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

@@mikewright2858 iam a business, but the one I got to test out, as Iam telling on the end.. I like to test the somnium vr1 also.. To be sure what I like more.. I will make a video of it.. If they lent me 1

I was having stutters when looking 90 degrees left and right. Just out of curiosity I ramped the MAX Fps up to full right 300%. Stutters went away. I then start backing it down slowly until I had the lowest MAX FPS setting with no stutters. Give that a shot.

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

For me the stutters went away when I limmeded the fps in dcs.. I'll come back to this and test again. Thanks for your feedback.

[@VRFlightSimGuy]

I'd also recommend a 100gram balance kit from Studioform on the back of the XR-4. Cheers!

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

Well I think my neck it to big lol.. I made the back smaller and I did had the problem anymore

[@fossmarkluni]

I have just bought the XR-4, I have the same issues with tracking, the Varjo head tracking process is maxing out 8(!) CPU cores on my 13900KF CPU, and if the room is not lit by daylight I get tracking issues. I probably need to install some very strong lights to avoid any tracking issues or do other visual change to my simpit. Other than that I'm happy with the visuals and comfort, I hope they can fix most of it with software/firmware updates as the visuals are so great. Another thing I noticed I didn't get any motion sickness in the XR-4.

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

You can play around with different tracking settings for tracking in the XR-4 Tweak tool (found in the Varjo folder, in the tweak tool subfolder). You can adjust the Tracking parameters and see if that affects tracking performance and performance.

[@fossmarkluni]

@@Dutch-bf109k4 I did some more testing yesterday, I got DALL-E (OpenAI image generator) to make me some random patterns and I printed the patterns on A3 size paper and placed in my simpit, after that the tracking problem went away.

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

Perfect.. I had the same issue. And how do you like it?

[@fossmarkluni]

@@Dutch-bf109k4 I installed some tracking paper with various geometries printed on an A3 paper, and placed it in my simpit directly in front of my face/XR-4. It fixed all tracking issues. 😊

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

@@fossmarkluni how is the xr4 performing?

[@mikewright2858]

How is everyone getting VR4s to play DCS with if it's currently only for commercial customers?

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

It is only for business now. The xr4 is going to be for everyone to buy in the future. And believe me it is worthy the wait.

[@rovpilot1]

Good video but music makes it hard to hear your voice

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

Thanks for the feedback.. I'll turn the music even more down..

[@HangmanGlenn]

why u fly in vr whit a sim pit? cause u see in game cockpit ?

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

That is why iam testing the xr4 and there is a video coming on mixed reality.. But for now the cocpit is 100% scale so the buttons and switches are at the same place as you see it.. And it looks great 😁

[@HangmanGlenn]

@@Dutch-bf109k4 just curious cause u are doing all this hard work on this sim pit should be nice if you can get the mixed reality working also. i am also flying in vr an just had my thoughts on an sim-pit cause of making it harder because u can not see the pit only the vr cockpit in dcs..

[@Dutch-bf109k4]

I do livestreams you can see me fly in the cocpit.. You see I don't have any problem finding everything.

[@HangmanGlenn]

@@Dutch-bf109k4 goed om te weten ik stream zelf ook dcs think youre dutch haha

Stop using AI voices.
