Blurriness on Quest 2 VD at semi-far distances

[Xaco]

Hi all, just curious if anyone has suggestions regarding medium-to-long range bluriness for this particular distance. I am running a Ryzen 3 1300x and 1660 super. I've tried increasing the resolution in both steam overlay options (to 500%) I also have a few graphical mods going (hd textures, and environmental mods) and am overclocking my GPU. If anyone has any other suggestions to make skyrim look better, I would really appreciate it! I hope it can do more, and the quest 2 isn't the limiting factor...

I'm in the same boat... Medium to long distances seem blurry... I really notice it on peoples faces, in Mid distance! I'm assuming this is some sort of compression when transferring it over to the quest 2 via Virtual Desktop... I suspect the answer lays in Virtual Desktop with the bitrate transfer/compression setting, But I haven't yet had the time to test it out... If you find an answer, please post it here for others to learn aswell ...

This is pretty normal for VR games, especially if using TAA in Skyrim. The only solution I've found is to run TAA and a CAS filter for ENB for sharpening. That being said even a 2080ti and 9700k struggle with this at 175% super sampling, also Steam supersampling only takes place after restarting the game.

Having the same issues but what has me confused is I played this with the Ultimate VR essentials mod pack using the quest 1 and had no real blur issues but doing same thing with the quest 2 is mad blurry at distance to the point where I'm getting headaches.

You need to disable "dynamic resolution" and temporary antialiasing in VR performance settings.

The other problem is that the game has a lot of grays, and grays can result in loss of detail when video compression is involved.

Guessing the best way to sorta get rid of some of the blur would be an enb?

I recommend disabling "dynamic resolution" first, because that's the thing that contributes to the blur the most.

Regardless, you will always have to pick between blur and shimmering in this game. TAA will bur the image, however without it everything is a shimmering mess. An ENB with CAS can bring back a decent amount of sharpness while retaining the smoothing of TAA.

Thanks for the comments and help guys. Will try disabling dynamic resolution and get back in a few days.

I added quite few mods and high-res textures(smim and others) (no enb) and it looks pretty sharp and generally amazing, but as I run 1070 - my fps dropped to unplayable 20-25fps.

Use the Steam community guides, particularly "deblurring Skyrim VR" and "Kithara's Skyrim VR mod list". The ENBs (haven't tried the CAS sharpener) greatly improve the game contrasts and sharpness!
