No Mans Sky VR - Impressions, Gameplay & Performance Tips! // GTX 1060 // Oculus Rift S
118(Performance tweaks below!)
**I mentioned in my video that the game isn't living up to my hype, but after more tweaks (See below) and with 2 hours of smooth gameplay..... I'm starting to change my mind and starting to enjoy the experience now!
* Performance Tweaks I Used:-
Turn V-Sync off in GPU settings.
Right click NMS.exe and in properties, compatibility, change High DPI settings, select High DPI scaling Override, and check that box Scale by Application.
In Game set your resolution to your HMD's resolution and set the FPS to your HMD's Hz.
For me I set my resolution to 640x480 (Lower than the HMD) and my FPS to 80 to match the Rift S 80Hz.
** New CPU Core Tweak:-
You first need to find the TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.VR. MXML config file.
It's located in \Steam\SteamApps\common\No Man's Sky\Binaries\SETTINGS\
Easiest method to find it:
Right click on No Man's Sky in steam and select Properties
Select Local Files tab and click on Browse Local Files...
Navigate to Binaries and then Settings folder, the file is there
Open the TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.VR.MXML with simple text editor (like NotePad) and search for a line "NumLowThreads"
It will usually have a value that's 4 or 6 or 8. Just change it to 0 and save the file.
You can also in addition try different values for NumHighThreads afterwards to see if that makes any difference.
I have an i7 (4 cores) so I changed this value to 4.
