Cheers Bart. Also waiting for air link...have a WiFi 6 router so that might get
me back to using the Quest 2 if it's wireless image quality then beats the
oculus link. Which still seems bonkers to me, but there you go. Using open
composite is another bonus.
Final thing I want to see if oculus has fixed is the microphone not working
when playing a 'Rift compatible' title like il2. Yes there are workarounds, but
that was just annoying.

Subject: [56raf_firebirds] Quest 2
Was reading somewhere that for the quest 2 to get a 1:1 render ratio you need
to render at 1.7 at 90hz 5408x2736. Well my GPU cannot do that at 90hz, but I
did manage it at 72hz, with oculus debug tool and my normal IL2 settings with
average clouds.
It turned out to be very good, smooth, no ghosting, etc, I did this via the
link cable. I could not do this with the Index to get the same sort of picture
with my existing setup, it might work if the Index could do 72hz. Even though
the detail is very good which is great for once the engagement has got close,
less than 3km. Spotting is so much harder as expected.
After using both set of software oculus(and open composite) and steamVR I do
think the oculus software is better of the two. ASW seems to work better than
motion smoothing and this is with Il2 and DCS, I can push the render higher
with ASW in DCS and it gives me better results in DCS than using the Index and
steamVR.
I really do rate virtual desktop(wireless) it’s amazing but that uses steamVR,
I am hoping that the new air link(with v28 software which I have not received
yet), uses the oculus software and there for open composite as well.
If I can get the same results with air link as I get with link cable in Il2 it
will be massive.
Here’s hoping :).
