Check out the OpenVR FSR implementations: (I guess this has been a thing since summer, but I never saw a post)
LINK TO OPENVR FSR FILES: https://github.com/fholger/openvr_fsr - for the modified openvr.dll and the associated .cfg file - works for me.
LINK TO AN OPENVR FSR Manager: https://github.com/tappi287/openvr_fsr_app - For an app, which I haven't tried that appears to manage these installs?
Immediate credit to these folks for their contributions!
I was terribly skeptical, and I hope you are too when you read such claims - but given the poor AA and poor FPS I was getting ... (I didn't know it was poor), so I tried this out.
At first it looked worse naturally since all it does is lower your render resolution and upscale it - no surprise there, but:
when I realized I was getting a huge FPS boost I decided to take it to the same FPS by increasing the supersampling in SteamVR (my target was to get 45+FPS in stations and 75+ outside.
I simply cannot believe the perceptual difference!
The setting that worked well for me at first was to:
-Increase the SteamVR render size by 200% (I could have just as well changed the HMD modifier within the VR graphic options)
-Use FSR the Multiplier of 0.5
-The real key for me was that the FSR also includes a radius for which the up-sampling is applied (importantly you can turn a debug circle on and off to see where and how big it is)
-It also includes a sharpening modifier, which I left at 0.9, but it may be a good idea to play with this to either see more or less of the aliasing on orbital lines and mail slot bars. Perhaps this is where the real FPS boost comes from?
It gave me both an increased FPS and smoother AA and even a little more consistent FPS.
Maybe it's all just due to the foveated radius, but hey that's a plus for sure~
Now NVidia lets do DLSS!
Other notes: Try Turning HAGS and Game mode off (I kept getting a weird effect and spent hours trying to figure out what the culprit was). I can't leave any post without sharing that as well.
My specs:
i7-9900K
3090 GTX overclocked 7%
Pimax 8KX (with FFR off, PP on, other settings as I choose.)
Please reply with your results, settings, specs, and perceptions!
