Problems with shadows (oculus rift).

[Zejch]

Greetings, VR pilots! I speak english not very good, so i appologize for that.

Some shadows on the planets and stations are moving when i turn my head. It looks very baaad. Anyone solved this problem? Help, please.

And one more (dont know if this VR problem or not). Sometimes light become superbright and flow in my cabin, and i cant see anything. It happens on the planets i guess. And lights under the lampposts are bright like superwhite milk.

(Rift CV1, GTX 980, i7-4820K, Windows 10).

about the "shadow" problem I beleive you are experiencing what we know of black smearing. This has to do with contrast and black levels which oculus is not very good at especially in dark regions. This is not only issue in elite but any game that has dark regions. No solution is known of yet. A patch would be for oculus or frontier to introduce some brightness and contrast adjustment feature. But up till now they have ignored the issue even though there have been many complaints about it.

He´s talking about shadows that are far away, like mountain shadows move with your head in vr. Sorry I dont think its any fix for that.But you can turn off bloom and fx in the graphics settings if you dont like the light effects

Or does he mean the black streaking that can happen when you haven't got your HMD/settings tuned in?

When I was first setting up I used to get something that sounds the same. Meteors and the like, when I moved my head around, would have a black ghost/streak. I can't remember exactly what I did, but it was fixed by changing one of the reprojection settings

Thanks for answers everyone!

Yeah, something like that. According google translate.) I'll try tune settings again.

And black smearing is sooo bad effect too. I thought it is one problem, but maybe they are 2 diffirent problems. Will wait fixes from oculus.

Hate to sound negative but if you are waiting for Oculus you might be waiting a long time.
