Hotkey to disable/enable
Zod1234 opened this issue · comments
The problem with scaling not built ingame is that text can suffer greatly. Some games I can't read the text. If we had a hotkey one could cycle it off, read whatever and turn it back on.
Ideally, I would think it would be great if a joystick combo invoked this. Looking at the other shortcuts they are keyboard shortcuts, maybe it would be a out of scope for this to have joystick bindings, but say both joystick buttons as a combo would be great.
This has been asked before, but it is unfortunately not generally possible. Such a feature would rely on games reacting to resolution changes, but not all games do, and for those that do, it can cause significant stutter or freezing while the game regenerates its rendering resources.
that's too bad. but I just learned steamvr has dynamic resolution functionality but only for native steamvr headsets. i wonder how does it accomplish this without having the impacts you described. what about scaling the decreaseUpscalingRadius down to where it has no effect?
I have never heard of such a feature in SteamVR, and if it existed, it would have the exact same issues.
Lowering the radius to zero would have the opposite effect of what you want - the whole image would be rendered at the lower resolution.
I misunderstood what someone said about steamvr, i thought it was dynamic.
I meant increasing the radius to max so in effect the entire image is rendered at higher resolution.
It is not, though - the radius controls the area that is getting upscaled. It is still rendered at the lower resolution.
