Anyone know how to get The Climb started with steamvr.
I've copied gammon across to E:\Games\The Climb\bin\win_x64-steam and run Climb.exe but nothing happens. I have pimax hmd and tried to run using pimaxplay which has something like revive built in, but still no go? Does it even work with steamvr?
I have read all the pinned posts and i have searched the megathread.
Bag zipping exploit bug - remove bag zipping
Breaking npc necks helmet bug - remove neck breaking
Bag item collision bug - remove bag collision
Gun smithing - remove gun smithing ( oh wait...)
I'm sure there is others and it's just an Si I can't remember
For years I have had to put up with shadows in one eye with various games. Subnautic, elite, zombieland, contractors exfil zone (ssao active) that crossed eye feeling was insane. Thats because pimax play forces PP on
Well no more thanks to Sboys3 driver. And simple click turning off parallel projection and all my worries are gone.
Ok I'm dumb, I made a mistake. I was so excited about my new dream air and everything working so good I stuffed up on my last Sboys3 driver post.
The problem was that running pimax play direct gave steamvr one resolution and running Sboys3 driver gave another, Even thou I had both set at 150% in steamvr. Which I didn't notice until someone pointed it out.
I spent today testing rather than playing as I wanted to make things right.
Game - No man sky - I find this game good as it allows me to see quality differences quite easily.
Pimax Play 1.43.9 - 8.8ms - Adding sharpening did not make any noticeable difference in performance
Sboys3 1.2.0-beta0 - 8.3ms - CAS Sharpening and you take a large 1ms hit to performance.
As you can see in the photos (Sboys3 is the round one) there is no noticeable difference in quality running at the same resolution. I tried all other settings under Sboys3 and did not notice any difference. Like sub pixel and PP etc. I thought maybe the distoration profile might be considerably better in terms of resolution, but no.
Conclusion - Yes there is a gain with Sboys3 driver. Is it as large as I shot my load yesterday over. Hell no 0.5ms is not a game changer sorry about that. You still get the better warping profile and all the bells and whistles. But if you want sharpening then stick to pimax play. Anyway I'm done now, back to playing
Problems I have with pimax play. In steam menu constant jitter, fine in game. Also I'm pretty sure you can't set boundaries with the dream air. There is no camera, and the room setup can only be activated from the desktop, which tells you to put the controls and headset on the ground and thats it. So if you want boundaries you need steamvr either through Sboys3 or pimax play, no boundaries with only pimax play openxr
Been playing around with my new Dream Air. After 3d printing a new facial I'm very happy with it. Playing Moss2 is no longer a neck strain, and hugely colourful.
But let me just say Sboys3 driver is next level. On a 5090 and 7800x3d super sampling at 200% I'm getting 7.8ms. Without Sboys3 driver I'm not only getting a constant jutter but also runing at 12.8ms . That is insane! A 39% reduction runing both under steamvr. Thats a better improvement than purchasing a 6090.
So a massive shout out to Sboys3.
Anyone know why beat saber got removed from PCVR ARMGGDN?
Hoping it wasnt cause it had a virus
P.S I'm not looking for this game.
Have a weird bug. When I start some games I'm presented with a blank screen. No controllers visable, no sound but you can still tell the screen is active as it's black but not like when you press the power button. On the monitor I can see the game is active and responding to head movements. I can also double tap home button and pimax home screen will appear with controllers and audio inside the hmd.
Now the strange thing is if I look straight up the screen becomes active. I'm able to play my game. Sometimes the screen will go blank again and I just look straight up again and it comes back on. Sometimes I have to move about before looking up to activate the screen.
This seems to affect openxr games under steamvr.
I have also adjusted my screen time out in pimaxplay to 20mins, which makes no difference as blank screen will occur within a couple of mins regardless of setting.
I've noticed other people complaining about blank screens but I don't think they worked it out to look up. Why would they. I think it has something to do Steamvr and it's boundary. Oh maybe it's Steamvr screen timeout, just thought of that. Still testing
