Re: Shader variables and VR Single Pass rendering

single pass now works! glad i found this thread. 3d perspective from the vc works like stereo mode and water is now usable. only thing missing is the right eye problem. but with single pass available, i can get decent performance on p3dv5 (which is still lacking compared to mfs as stuttering is stil...

alpha fade?

Hi P3D team,
Is there a plan to implement alpha fade for v5? The autogen popping into view in large clumps in the foreground is totally an immersion killer. The new "other" sim in dx11 uses alpha fade to great effect, there is no noticeable objects popping into view.
Thanks,
kdfw

Re: A question on how to set up for virtual reality in 4.4 moving forward

i see flickering with asw=on in p3d so i turn it off using the traytool. don't see any benefit with asw on p3d, just flickering textures.

p3dv4.3 VR single-pass lighting artifact

Hello, i'm using the flythemaddong md80 model using the single-pass VR mode (rift cv1) and observing lighting anomalies: in the right eye image, light (fx based night lighting) presents a sharp edge while the left eye image is normal. https://www.flythemaddog.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2018_10/VR_lig...

Re: White-window floating in VR in 4.3

the cause of this problem seems to be how 2d gauge displayed over the vc is rendered while in vr mode. for the fsl model, there is a tiny gauge that's displayed at the upper left corner of the screen. when this gauge is undocked or commented out in panel.cfg, the white windows in vr doesn't show up....

Re: P3Dv4.2 VR Single Pass Rendering Mode Issue

general question regarding the single pass rendering: is this feature based on nvidia's gfx card driver api? is this something nvidia is actively supporting and can offer a fix via driver update?

p3dv4.2 vr single pass object flicking on/off

this may be related to what others are reporting:

vector object like power line towers are flickering on/of using the single pass mode. if normal stereoscopic mode is used, everything is normal.

i saw this around orbx lowi scenery.

Re: f16 autoflaps inop

p3dv4.1 content update fixed the f16 autoflaps.

but looks like the fix was done within the .mdl, not by fixing the SCControl.dll. so autoflap works fine for the stock f16 but will not work for the aerosoft f16 .mdl migrated to p3dv4.1.
