Weird Menu Glitch in Oculus CV1

[danson]

Hi all,

I recently re-entered Elite after a few months away. In that time I believe Windows and Oculus had updated themselves.

I noticed straight away that there was a very weird glitch happening when scrolling through all menus (starport services for example) in the game. The lines of the menus jump around and distort. It's strangely nauseating. This never happened previously. It is happening only within the oculus headset and not on my external screen. I haven't noticed anything like this happening in other games although maybe it is but there's just something about the Elite menus that makes it really obvious.

Here is a video I managed to take filming through the lens of the oculus:

I've also noticed that if I look at a menu and move my head around a similar thing happens (so it's not limited to just scrolling up and down on the control pad).

I've tried turning off ASW using Oculus Tray Tool. I've tried lowering the graphics levels within Elite. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Elite in Oculus home. Nothing works. Also, like I say, this has only just started happening recently and I had not changed any settings.

Can anyone shed any light on this? I'm tearing my hair out.

Thanks

My graphics card is an AMD RX 480.

its something to do with dropped frames, I get that if my graphics card is getting toasty both the gtx1080 in my laptop ant the gtx1080ti in my desktop both do this. stick all your fans on max and turn the rift volume up to compensate for the added pc noise and the job should be a goodun.

This is the tell tale signs of ASW, the station menus are quite bad at triggering this.

Also if you got the new windows update make sure to turn off all windows game bar functions, particularily the DVR function since this was forcing ED even in VR to throttle to 60fps.

Yah, AMD 480, there is no way that is going to play ED without the use of ASW, so best get used to the wavies.
