    I have recently moved to Quest3 from Pimax Crystal and also changed from AMD XTX7900 to 4080 Super and getting really poor performance in R3E. Really hoping the new updates next week are the answer and improve VR hugely, or at least back to how it was over a year ago. I stopped playing as I just could not get a reasonable vr image without stutters & hiccups after having it work brilliantly for a long time.

    This goes for everyone really: make sure you set the nvidia power management mode to maximum performance for RR. You will probably have to add the program manually to customize the profile for it, as below. Leaving it on normal can cause the GPU to start powersaving in RR, causing worse fps and stutters.

    Thanks and do you know somewhere I can download the openvr opencomposite file ? I tried the links in the first post but it goes to a dead mediafire link.

    Yes I tried the x64 dll. It gives error that OpenXR call failed. The branch that is supposed to work is the Iron Wolf one but the links to that are dead.

    I turned the Power the Max Performance in nvidia profiler and it runs a little better in Steam, but it really does not look very good and the trouble to get it working is really not worth it.

    I wish KW studios had spent time to replace the dx9 for dx11 or 12 as that would ensure much better performance. Lets see if the updates next week bring something that boosts the gameplay performance, I really hope it does !

    Yeah same, I went hunting for them and only found dll's that throw errors. Back to AMS2 I guess but will check next week after update lands.

    I use Quest 3 and did not find any working openvr.dll in this thread.

    Thomas Jansen said he would link them but I do not know where that link is ?

    Well that's disappointing, I for one don't have any performance gain at all. Especially Zhejiang and Ningbo and Charade are still unplayable here. So I have to use openvr again with the RiftS under i7-8700 and rx7600..:(
