Stutter when turning head in War Thunder

I have an AMD 3950X and a GTX 2080 and 64GB of ram. I would expect to run my Rift S with impressive settings.

I have an irritating stutter when I turn my head. Sometimes it happens more than than others.

I just turned the graphics down to medium to see if that was the problem and the stuttering was just terrible. It does not seem to be my graphics settings. It looks like something with the Rift regardless of graphics.

When I turn my head the screen pulls, the graphics stop, frames are dropped.

I have everything closed on my computer except for steam, war thunder and oculus.

It is incredibly irritating to have such an amazing gaming rig and to have Oculus stuttering when I turn my head most of the time.

Please help...

A quick search and seems like an ongoing issue with the game itself:

I searched this forum and did not find anything recent.

This reddit post is from 1 year ago and does not have any new comments. I would expect the issue to be resolved on a 1 year old post without new comments.

This reddit post also has nothing at all to do with VR or Oculus. I play the game often without VR and it has no issues with stuttering.

I will also post in the war thunder forum.

Sounds like a supersampling or antialiasing problem tbh. I can run the game just fine but when I start messing with the Sampling options, the screen starts tearing all to hell.
And that's not just in-game settings either. You have to be cognizant of the steamVR settings too.

Agreed. Any stutter issues I've had in situations where it's only 1 game causing it, tends to be related to SS and AA.

War Thunder is the ONLY game I play in VR. I'm on medium and I still have occasional stuttering. Again, I'm on a 3950X and RTX 2080. I would expect better graphics performance. It is just incredibly frustrating to have the screen stutter when I turn my head.

I put in a support ticket and Oculus support solved it without even replying!!! I just have a  case with no replies that says "solved".
