New Build. 14900k + RTX 4080. Can't get fps above 40 in VR.

Hi.. I basically got the top of the line hardware without going into the crazy SLI stuff.. Aiming to get decent VR performance..

But no.. i was thoroughly disappointed.. My FPS is basically the same as my old PC 10900f + 3080..

I main goal is to get decent FPS on vamsoy scenes.. which is a big scene.. FPS hovers around 20.

Realfeel project fps around 35.

Of course, some plain minimal light scenes I can get 40+.. but almost all the complicated scenes I cant get above 40.

**I tried both fresh install and my old install... same frame rate.



I use virtual desktop w/ quest 3, ultra quality. In-game quality medium. Also adjusted down the physics cap to 1, and shadow quality to middle.


Am I missing something? is this normal? Or this game is just not supposed to have good frame rate..

If so, scenes like vamsoy scenes or realfeel scene or these big scenes, the intent is to play at 20 frame per second? its like watching slide show.. lol..

I think that door has been kicked at least 100 times on that forum and on the discord.

You won't get to 300 fps or whatever framerate you have in mind for VAM 1, in VR.
The physics are killing the framerate and are bottlenecked by the CPU. Even with the physics patch you won't get proper performances with more than two characters.

That said, the scenes in question could be potentially unoptimized. Too much characters, too much fps hungry clothes or hairstyles... and so on. A well performing scene is also tied to the creator who made it.

Side note: this does not mean VAM 2 will perform better with intense scenes as it's meant to be state of the art.

I forgot: even without VR, too much characters will results in a sub-par framerate and can drop below 60fps. Especially at resolutions above 1440p.

Don't use "ultra quality" in VD, try High instead. (Take with a grain of salt, I'm not a VD / Quest 3 user.)
