Maybe you notice it more in the Rift.Try lock camera to horizon in visual settings Works for me with Vive, Dave O.I didn't know you had a Vive Dave.

Turned out to be my PC was the the problem in the end. Passed the Steam vr test no problem, but it wouldn't run the Vive.I upgraded PC to a i7 7700k and a 1070GTX and all is good now. Would have signed up for this season but not sure if it wouldit would handle a field of 20-30 drivers. I don't think I could go back monitors after VR it really is something else, but very resourcehungry Cheers Dave O. Logged NEVER TOO OLD TO RACE ... being competitive can be a PROBLEM though.

It takes a few laps to get accustomed every time I get in there.I'm not going to go and change settings for the camera to be locked or unlocked from the horizon. This track is an exception and I haven't noticed this issue anywhere else.

If I could happily switch between monitors and VR it would be fine, but could I actually do that I reckon it would be too much hassle to just switch between both.

If you can run 24-30 AI then theoretically in MP it should run no worse as the cpu has much less to do in MP when its not calculating all the AI drivers.Quote from: Cursed on March 20, 2017, 05:59:37 PMI notice the bumps from about T3 - T7.

This track is an exception and I haven't noticed this issue anywhere else.Must be a VR specific thing then as this track to me on a standard triple screen setup is no bumpier then any other.I think t5 is famous for its steep bumps at the apex, and I think that's why the f1 line is to avoid the apex and stay a bit more in the mid of the track. Also, t9 (the very fast right hander) is known for the bumps (for example, Sirotkin was talking about how different 2017 f1 cars were more or less table over those bumps in a recent interview in motorsport.com).

I'll head back from eastern creek at around 6, so I'll be home by 7-8, tired, in need of a dinner, etc...I'd be a liability on the track afterwards I think, so I won't force the issue. Have fun!
