Assetto Corsa in VRPC

[Cote Dazur]

For what it is worth, I have checked the CPU and GPU load with Geforce experience and with MSI after burner and it appears that Performance counter app in AC, at least on my system, is totally off.
Anybody else did the test?

Do you have Turbo Mode on on the Openxr tool? It can mess tests to show false records.

No, I do not, but it does not mean that , maybe, something else is not in my system.
Do your readings in AC App and OpenXR tool match?

Do your readings in AC App and OpenXR tool match?

Yes, they do match, not excactly same, but close enought.

I,m more interested to know how you can get AC to run smooth with a G2 at 60fps. I tried it once and it was a mess.

After a few hours of comparing 60 to 90 fps. It looks the same to me but my system is running smoother and cooler with higher PP settings, and my CPU can manage 60 much easier than 90.

As I was trying 90 fps instead of 60fps, my issue of big discrepancy between AC performance app and afterburner was gone, it appears to be off only when I run my G2 at 60fps.

Are there any recognised 'solutions' to our Reverb G2s (I have three: a fully-working one, one with a badly-chipped lens, and one that doesn't work at all) getting borked later this year as the mandatory Win11 24H2 update rolls out?
Will setting up a dual-boot to Win10 just for sim racing do it?
Has anyone looked into this yet?
I imagine there are quite a few nervous owners. It's not a perfect HMD due to the WMR baggage it carries, but it's pretty damn good for sim racing I really don't want it nerfed for no good reason when it would probably do me for a good few years yet.

Either
a) setup a dual boot Win 10 or Win 11 23H2 version
or
b) just lock you present Win 11 version to 23H2.

You can fudge this by editing registery files or go down the route of upgrading your Win 11 instalation from Home to Pro. The Pro edition is designed for businesses and has the built-in feature choice of locking the installed Windows version to whatever you like to avoid automatic version upgrades breaking a business-critical system. This is exactly what is happening to us. Win 11 Pro keys can be bought cheap from one of the sites of dubious reputation for less than 2 quid. The 'dodgy' keys work or they will give you another one. There may be a difference between a fresh install key and an update from Home to Pro key but not 100% sure. Some people say the keys are from stolen credit card numbers but I don't know how true this is, selling for less than 2 quid, it sounds like a lot of work. I believe Steam support ends Nov 2026 and that may be it for the G2, but that's still another 22 months.

The lock to W11 23H2 means you still get all the security updates so no problems there.

Thanks! I'll look into it.
I wasn't aware that Steam was ending support for the G2 in Nov 2026. That truly sucks greasy goat balls.

I think mine is locked to 23H2 simply by not selecting auto update. I guess that is a pro only option then. Am still hoping for someone to do a workaround driver for the thing but i will not be holding my breath. Until then i will use for as long as i can.
I like the G2 but i will not miss the buggy mixed reality app when it finally gives out on me
