Sboys3 driver pimax VR

For those VR players in the Pimax ecosystem I thought I would pass on my findings for the sboys3 driver and warthunder.

This driver lifts performance significantly. There is a 10-20fps gain at least, and it’s enabling pretty insane super sampling.

I’m able to push my headset (crystal super ultrawide) to 5624x5108 per eye and keeping a stable 72fps.

Am also using the FXAA2 CAS filter from within sboys3 to get extra sharpness.

This results in very good spotting and ID of aircraft. Well above what I was seeing just using pimax play at 1.0 native resolution.

The negatives are I could only get the driver to work in DX11 mode (it was displaying upside down in DX12) and the overall image does look a little oversharpened. I may have to tweak that. But I can accept these for the phenomenal resolution.

My rig has a 5090 so others obviously won’t hit that res, but I’m sure the results are scalable.
