I have done some googling elsewhere and searched a bit here, but have not found any up-to-date info that seems like it would help. So please forgive if this question has been asked before, I did look around a bit. Please send URLs if I am going over well-trodden ground!
I am really excited about ETS2 in VR. Had a taste with a Quest 2, and that decided me to get a Reverb G2 and make the leap to full 3d.
Got the Reverb G2, got all set up, can play other SteamVR games. Got ETS2 to start in VR. Got into the truck! Great audio, lovely 3d world. Then I started to drive and oh my, janky graphics hell.
Tearing, stuttering, shimmering, you name it. I used to run on generic High (with some selected settings raised a little bit) on a flatscreen 1080 HDMI monitor and had quite good quality. But this is unplayable. I can turn generic quality down to Medium and get reasonably smooth performance in 3d, but the graphics are pretty crude (trees are x-section panels and rotate as I pass them, models are kind of toony etc).
My system: Win10 i7 8700K, 32GB, AMD 5700XT 8GB, SSD for both boot disk and game disk. Latest Steam oculus/openvr beta.
My question: am I just SOL because my graphics hardware is not up to running 2 hi-rez displays (one for each eye) no matter what I do? OR... is there a set of tweaks and settings I can use to make my G2 perform reasonably well at High in-game settings?
The more I read online about graphics settings for WMR with Steam the more confusing it gets, and most of the stuff I am reading seems to date from 2017 and 2018 so I don't know how much of it is even applicable any more. If anyone knows of an up-to-date tuning guide specifically for ETS2 and ATS, I would be very grateful for a pointer! ETS2 (and ATS) was the main reason I bought this headset so I'm feeling kinda despondent right now. Do I really have to throw $1K or more at a very high-end GPU (if I can even get one right now!) in order to play ETS2 in 3d?

I play in the Oculus Quest 2, and the last two updates for ETS2 have broken this game for VR devices. I suspect this is what you're seeing. I've been unable get any advice or confirmation of a problem from anywhere so far.

I'm running VR ATM (i9 9900/64gb/3080ti/Vive) and its the same as triple screen.. very smooth until you hit the towns and cities. interestingly, the graphics card never goes above 50-60% usage, and even then, only at half its clock speed, so CPU is the killer in my case. im looking for an upgrade but the fastest CPU's out there are only 15% faster.. and my frame drop is FAR more than that.. i drop to under 40fps in some cities.. poland seems particularly bad for some reason.

Sorry it took me a while to check back in. I am still struggling with my Reverb G2 and ETS2. TRCB would you be willing to share your config.cfg so I can compare your graphics settings with mine? I feel like I must be missing something so obvious. I did read
https://www.virtualsunburn.com/euro-tru ... -settings/
and tried suggested settings. No dice. So frustrating.
My 5700XT is no match for your 3080Ti but if what you say is true it may be CPU that's the issue. My i7 8700 certainly feebler than your i9 9900, so if you are having issues then maybe I'm doomed. Dang, because ETS2 is the reason I bought the G2.
Here is my config.cfg, maybe you could offer some wisdom?

In the meantime I'm going to try ATS and see if it's any better.
