Last week I was managing to get Evo to run ok in VR at locked 90FPS with a massive vertical crop (racing helmet like view) and mostly ultra settings.

I went and played iRacing for a week and after coming back to Evo today I'm completely maxed out on VRAM and that's with a 5090. The game hasn't updated and neither has my Pimax VR software. I've restarted my PC, played it fine on a 4k flat screen, but every time I try VR it's a 10 FPS stuttering mess. Any ideas?

Is anyone playing this sim after the latest update and getting good clarity? What settings are you using?

After 0.7 I'm finally able to play this without an extreme letterbox crop in openxr toolkit. I still need a vertical crop but not quite as extreme. This is using the Crystal Super with a 5090 / 9800X3D.

However, the image is blurry, which is noticeable looking at the dash and braking boards and this doesn't seem to be related to in game settings. Not sure how to fix this.

Until now I've only been able to play Evo on low settings with an extreme letterbox crop (using OpenXR toolkit's crop2fov function to remove around 60% from both the top and bottom of my FOV) to achieve just 72 FPS.

I briefly tested 0.7 last night and performance is much improved but still clearly behind every other sim I play. I can now get away with cropping 30-40% from the top and bottom of my FOV and I raised some of the in game settings, but I'm not sure how much difference these settings made. The graphics are appearing pixelated for me and this is most noticeable looking at the dash. Not sure what's going on there or how to fix but will experiment again tonight.

If they can improve performance further so that it's equal to iracing, fix the dead centre in the FFB and add some more single seaters (Indycar, F3, etc) i'll be very happy.
