you you should smoke us in terms of performance with a 4090 even if you don't have a X3D CPU. I was doubtful about headset fundamental differences but I fired up my Q2 last night, that I had left to my daughter for standalone Gaming for a long long time. and to my surprise it did introduce some micro stutters in RRE, and I observed also graphical artefacts in bumper view None of this is present when I VR with my Pico NEO3Link so yes headset itself or maybe the drivers/settings create this discrepancy and influence your experience with the G2 as I mentioned above, it could be such a rabbit hole to identify source of stutters and low performance in VR that I would recommend to start from scratch. Your headset generic resolution and generic settings set in the drivers/WMD UI Disable any monitoring/tweaking tool, I mean no MSI AB, RGB stuff bla bla bla (concrete example for me few months ago, I had stutters with ControlFan due to the source of sensors its using for GPU temps so I had to untick this in the software settings to get back smooth VR) set your NVIDIA CP and Profile inspectors to DEFAULT see if that toggle in Windows affects your performances hope this helps
Anyone have a link to iron wolf's opencomposite? can't seem to find the exe anymore and the site seems to just have uncompiled code.
You don't need to use the exe, the dll files will do. You can find them here: https://gitlab.com/TheIronWolfModding/OpenOVR I have not been able to get any version of open composite to work with Raceroom though, let me know if you succeed.
Thanks, I have those and I can get it to run without Steam VR but can't get openxr toolkit to work, I recently deleted some stuff off the network drive and thought for sure I had a RRRE specific opencomposite.exe guess I'm about to where I'm going to get unless they bump it to dx11/12
I found an .exe here: https://gitlab.com/znixian/OpenOVR#system-wide-installation Don't know if that's what you need.
That is the upgraded/maintained version, I either misremembered a bespoke rf2/RRRE version or it is no longer available.
This remains an issue. ASW is a great way to run R3E without having to sacrifice graphics. Remember to assign Mirror Quality to High if ASW is Auto or Forced.
You have a 13600k right? It is possible that the game is running on efficiency cores or the os is unparcing just 1 core fore Raceroom because of the small load. You should check it while in game. I had the same issues with 13700k. Solution is to disable the E-cores in bios and actually unparking all the cpu cores (google it, I don't remember how exactly) If you have not set these it's almost certain that you have some issues with it. A 13600k overclocked is possibly one of the fastest cpu for Raceroom in existence now, RR cannot use 3dvcache and fancy new stuff, it needs a few cores at extreme frequency, thats it.
I have 2 possible ideas, hope it helps: 1. You had an Nvidia graphics card before, and AMD still does not support DX9. I have written about this here before, bought a 6900xt and it was not running RR (just RR as in your case) I switched to 3080 and now I'm using a pimax 8kx at 120% resolution. To check if this is the case verify the GPU frequency whyle in game (with GPU-Z), if it goes up and down and is not on the max freq. (like in other games) than the problem is what I had, and probably everybody with a new AMD card: GPU load is so low with DX9 that the driver is constantly underclocking the graphics card. 2. You were using the old Pimax software, called PiTool and now with the Crystal You have to use the new software. And this new software has an inexplainable high CPU usage (even at idle) and that is limiting RRs performance since RR is so heavily CPU bottlenecked. I had this issue too with the 8KX, I have to use the old Pitool instead the new software avaliable on their main site. Worth mentioning that I have not tried newer versions since last year.
I run the Game with a 5800x3d and 4080 super giving me a 90fps locked smooth experience on my pico Neo3 link and that is with above 3000pixels per eye resolution and graphics cranked up in Game not even need opencomposite anymore but I reckon PCVR is so time consuming to tweak so it could be anything creating a bad experience
that last part is definitely not true. In fact, I think RR might have one of the biggest performance uplifts from the ryzen 3D cache! Because our engine is not very efficient, it has tons of data it needs to constantly store and read, which is many times faster if it can be stored in a huge L3 cache instead of RAM We've seen uplifts of over 30% going from a 5800x to a 5800x3D
Yeah, I was wondering too, and I also see a significant FPS drop if I disable eDRAM (essentially L4 cache) in my i7-5775c. About 20-25%.
Oh, I didn't know that. I have realized in the past that RR runs very well on overclocked intel cpus, and ram speed makes a difference too. And that hyper threading and very high core count is not needed. This is why I thought that the game has no benefits from these new technologies like 3d cache. I have built my last 2 PCs based on that belief specifically to run RR well in VR. No I'm wondering if it was a mistake. Would be nice to see a performance comparison of the last few years cpus in RR. If somebody is interested I would do some controlled benchmarking to compare cpus, something similar to the DX9 performance thread.
Does someone got the DLL files from TheIronWolf? The links are no longer working unfortunately.. Thank you! Very appreciated!

Hello folks, Does anyone still have the DLL file for 'TheIronWolf'? The Discord link is going nowhere. Thanks
Thanks, that works perfectly. It starts without SteamVR, but the performance is still subpar. Graphics set to low, it looks like the end of the 90s and it runs just borderline. I have a 5800x3d, 6950xt and 32GB ram and vr with quest 3. ACC and AMS2 run very well and the graphics look very good there too.
