Pimax Crystal Light Virtual Reality Headset Is On Another Level | DCS World

It looks like you’re only recording view input from the right eye, which makes sense in VR. Is there a choice? Just an observation; great content thnx!

Your discount code is $10 not 10%. I was gonna pull the trigger at 10% off lol.

Some of the passing shots watching the pilot were beautiful.

Wow buy me one, dude.

Awesome video ! Thanks ...

What are the computer specs?

Very nice !!!! The video quality of the Crystal looks superb !!!

Hey Longshot, for those of us who've gotten violently ill using VR headsets previously, what's your impression in comparison to previous headsets? Worth it, or stay with Track IR 5 & a nice huge monitor?

Chinese....hell no

Lol...PIMAX must not be clear enough to clearly see the radar switch in quiet mode...ROFL

i think that's the most missiles i've seen locked onto one target LMAO

Welcome to VR!

You did pretty well with your radar in silent mode.

Would love to see you jump into some VR WW2 missions? Nobody's doing it...

Haha, nice but... you lost. Hahaha...Love your videos. You are always having fun. I really enjoy the videos you do with growling sidewinder, You two have great chemistry together, and it is great to watch.

Bare bones it's $800.00
In this economy?!? Pass. I have a family to feed.

Very cool product review

Is it just me or do the trees look less detailed than I'm used to?

Thinking about getting a VR headset as well.

Anyway, what map is that?

Pimax Chrytal or Chrystal light, that is the question. Is the foveal tracking not a MUST in term of performance ?

Imho the highlights are disapointing. They look washed out. The screen door is also visible there. Anyway still great headset. I also wish Pimax made some magnetic smart tags. You know, some little plastic/electronic things that I could magneticly (or 3M tape) attach to my cockpit in few places so I could see some point markers in VR. This could be easier to find some specific buttons on my SimPit.

Another awesome video

Can someone explain why "%" is blurred? YT insanity?

No matter what VR set you use, the fun ends when DCS can't maintain stable frames. It will happen sooner or later, no matter how powerful your PC is. DCS is pathetic in the context of VR in the long run. Cool as an experience, awful as a routine flying.

The F16 is still badass even though your radar wasn’t working properly. I own the original Pimax Crystal before the Light came out and original is still amazing. I am waiting for the next level in VR to come out and that is the Pimax Crystal SUPER which hopefully will be out next month.

wow i enjoyed watching your vid :D

Love the legacy skin on the 16❤️

With a failing targeting system, you fought very well. Bravo!!!

You did pretty well without a wingman!

Im sitting here hollering at you. You're in quiet mode. Turn your radar on.

VR frame drops can be fixed with a drop-in upgrade to a 5800X3D (or whole upgrade to a 7800X3D or coming 9800X3D.) DCS thrives on cache

LOL you can't record how it looks in VR.
It's useless to for commenting about details in the video because it's 2d recording not actual VR view. Same recording would be if you were using Oculus Rift from 2016 or Crystal from 2024. Just yours game level of details/settings and fps are true nothing else.

Well done . What is,the name of the song in the video ?

I won’t play DCS without a VR headset ever again, I started when I bought a used Rift S 4 years ago, and on that headset I couldn’t read a single F16 button…
The only problem with VR recording is that the view is offset to one side

Wow, that was amazing, thanks for the ride-along! I continue to be impressed by your airmanship and your fighting skills. The Pimax looks pretty impressive. I noticed that the out-of-cockpit views were really crisp, smooth and nearly photorealistic. The in-cockpit views looked quite a bit less detailed (panel views were good but less so thru the glass). Was that a result of editing? Lastly, do you get a better sense of depth with the Pimax? I find it harder to visually reacquire a target in 2D, wondering if the VR headset changes that?

7 reference… nice

Are you and GS buddies in real life? Would love an IRL of you guys sometime.

DCS has always had trouble with VR. Probably the best the can do with an outdated graphics engine.

💥💥💥👍👌

Are the colors that vibrant

What are your system specs?

Is there a screen door effect with the Crystal? I have the 5k xr, which has a small amount of screen door effect. I’ve held off on the upgrade, so that Pimax can work out all the bugs.

the fact that you're running this with a 4070 super with decent graphics settings is excellent!

One of the best videos I've seen so far. Great editing.

Awesome video, dude.

Lemme guess , you can’t run this on an AMD 7800

Great video man. Quick question. I have the CL and have not yet set it up for DCS. I see your still using your mouse to control the cockpit controls. Is there a setting for this or does it just work this way? Also I have been considering the F16. I currently run the F18 mainly. Reason is the F16 has the side sticks and I may mount them to my sim rig. Let me know thoughts on comparison. Thanks man

Seen a lot about the Pimax,I have quest 3 I got a few months ago so maybe next upgrade
