There are alot of different factors if we want to discuss how much sense it makes to use different tools. For example, the vrmodapp/vrperfkit will only help you if your system is bottlenecked by your GPU - it wont help you on a CPU bottleneck at all. SSW is different and better there, from what i understand its basically the equivalent of afmf/dlss3 for VR headsets. Furthermore, i have no idea if these tools work with VirtualDesktop at all, i didnt test it at the time of writing the Guide but its a great thing to experiment around with for the update to it.
Lossless scaling has vastly improved since this guide was written and now enables framegen (afmf/dlss3 tech) for every GPU. Its highly likely that you have this enabled as it is the default setting iirc. Your regular fps counter and your GPU fps counter doesnt display the actual FPS in that case any longer. Toggle the "Draw FPS" switch in Lossless scaling itself to see the actual FPS youre getting with framegen.
Correct, Lossless scaling does not work in VR - thats why i specifically wrote "For Desktop" above it in the guide. To get positive results for desktop, you need to set an upscaling method and configure it properly. Or enable the framegen. Theres lots of Videos and Guides about which upscalers and which settings do what specifically, youll find plenty with a quick google search.
thanks for guide...
i bought steam lossless scale as im sick of 30 fps in VR....
BUT using HIGH vam settings on default scene.
i currently get worse FPS/ latency
Lossless scaling does not work for VR headsets, thats why i specifically wrote "mandatory desktop tool" in the title. You can enable "SSW" in VirtualDesktop for a similar effect, though.
Your GPU and your ram are very nice and should produce more than 30fps - IF youre not using a very old CPU. Try cleaning up your system and maybe update drivers, especially after a hardware upgrade.
Another thing is that you need to keep your scenes reasonable - for example, you cant just add 5-10 Persons in your Scene, even the most expensive hardware help wont help you there.
Lastly, a messed up AddonPackages folder can also be the cause of performance issues. If youre hoarding thousands of .vars in your client, better hardware wont help much. You need to clean that up.
Hope this helps, your hardware can definately go way higher than 30fps in a 2 person scene. Sometimes setting everything up can be fiddly - dont give up
More fps are always better! Sounds like too many .vars are the cause of your issues. Some of my Patrons pointed out on discord that there are certain tools for managing them - i didnt use them yet so i cant give any recommendations or offer help help for them, but here they go: JayJaywon's browser assist and VaM ThinTwin. Maybe try one of those and see if they can help you manage all these vars.ahh i was hoping that the software had evolved to VR .... as its very different from when it launched..
also there are lots of reddit and steam claims that it works in VR but clearly it doesnt out of the box....hell if you google how to get more fps in VR for vam you literally get a thread on reddit and then this guide because google sucks
i have a newish decent cpu from this year and i only ever have 2 looks or 3 with a male but still in vr rarely get more than 30 fps... and yeah there are alwyas missing dependencies and too many vars haha i have like 4 versions of vam as a result and keep having to start from scratch. I really hope the no1 priority for vam 2 is performance ....
I used the virt desktop direct hack skipping steam vr and oculus which helped... but still need more fps... ALWAYS NEED MORE lol
thanks for your hardwork all the same im sure this helps many people who dont use vr...
