    I made an eye chart test scene to experiment with supersampling on my Vive, plus included the instruction on how to enable supersampling. You can get both here: http://newthingsnow.com.au/downloads/

    Supersampling is resource intensive and how far you can go depends on your card. With a 970 it will likely be 1.3-1.5, with a 1080 you will be able to go up to 2.5, but not for all games. The Bilago chaperone changing app has now been extended so you can easily change the supersampling value as well, you can get it here: http://bluefruitgaming.co.uk/bilago/Vive/ChaparoneSwitcher/ChaperoneSwitcher.zip

    I love running at a higher setting, makes such a difference. I sit at about 2.2 and the difference to default is night and day.
