 The Drag[en]gine game engine is currently (as of version 1.7.1) not optimized yet for VR use. This can cause performance issues with less performant GPUs or graphics intensive scenes. You can improve the performance for motion capture by changing a few [[dragengine:modules:opengl:main|Graphic Module Parameters]]. The Drag[en]gine game engine is currently (as of version 1.7.1) not optimized yet for VR use.

 The OpenGL module automatically adjusts the VR render frame rate to 90, 45, 30 or 15Hz depending on the performance of the GPU. For motion capturing a frame rate of 30 is enough for quick motion while a frame rate of 15 is still acceptable for common animations. But for the actor wearing the HMD, low frame rates can be strainable. It is thus recommended to improve the performance as much as possible, for the sake of your actor. The OpenGL module automatically adjusts the VR render frame rate to 90, 45, 30 or 15Hz depending on the performance of the GPU.
