The sim throttle levers do move when I set the idle on. However, that's bound to a switch in the throttle quadrant of my HOTAS. The levers also move when I slightly raise the rpm (up to 68 or 69%). That seems to keep the engine running. Next thing I'll try is to move the levers up and down first thing in the mission, even before turning the batteries on. Maybe the sim needs to know where the actual levers in the hotas are.

Sigue a la venta, si hay algún interesado. También se pueden vender por separado.

By "in the VR menu" you mean in the SteamVR menu, right? because I can't see anything close to that in the Oculus menu. I tried what's in the video above, but: 1- I can't have it only for DCS, because mine is a stand-alone version and I don't have it in the SteamVR apps list 2- Not sure if it was that, but it was a horrible experience. I think my GTX 1070 can't handle that.

Thank you all for your replies. I will try all those things above and let you know.

I tried that and saw now significant difference I guess I'll have to wait until I manage to get one of the newest GPUs. Is there a way to bind the VR zoom to a button in the joystick? apparently, in VR, the reguar zoom that I had bound to a potentiomenter in the throttle is disabled, and only the VR zoom works, which is one of the nunchucks button. Obviously, I barely use them while playing, but I would still like to have the option of zooming close at hand. Can that be done? Thank you

Hi. I recently got the Oculus Quest 2 googles and started testing them in DCS. I don't have a superpowerful GPU, just a GTX 1070 (I'm trying to get ahold of one of the new RTXs, but it's a rather impossible task), but it runs the game in VR. However, I would like to optimise it's performance. The main issue I'm having is that the cockpit labels are barely readeable, and I was wondering if I could improve the cockpit resolution, even if it meant lowering the exterior resolution or other features like clouds or smoke. I attach my current settings. Thank you

the thing is that I'm not using the auto-start, so it should not be the issue. Don't know why it's happening, but it's happening every time. I'm sure that if I was to do it "quickly", without the tutorial, it wouldn't have time to turn off, but since the tutorial is so slow, it stays a long time on and idle, and at some point it's like it run out of fuel.

Hi both. Sorry, I have the "Follow topic" on, but I didn't receive any notification. Thank you for the LCtrl+Z tip, I'll try it next time. Rregarding the throttle, I don't have any abnormal binding, as far as I can see, and this happens without touching anything in the keyboard, so it should be something in the joystick. But the Throttle off is bound to two spring loaded buttons, and I'm not even near that area when this happens. I'll try a cold start with an instant action instead of the tutorial, see if that does any difference. Thank you anyway

Hi everyone, I don't know what's sometimes happening, but when I'm cold starting the F18, sometimes it turns itself off. I've noticed that sometimes the throttle goes off out of the idle position, and it's not an issue with the mapping, as sometimes it happens with me not touching anything. Any idea of why could this be happening? Also, when in a tutorial mission, is there any way to skip the messages? I've repeated some of them several times and I would like to go faster, but I need to wait for the narrator to finish talking. Thank you

Hi everyone. I'm assuming that the Thrustmaster F/A-18 stick is not compatible with the X56 HOTAS, right? but hasn't any 3D guru already modeled a 3D printable version of the stick to disassemble the X56 stick and mounting its "guts" on it? I don't think I have the skills to design it, I can only model quite basic designs in Fusion360, but I'm quite sure it should not be a supercomplicated thing for someone with the knowledge, and it would be much appreciated by the thousands of X56 users. Has anyone already done this? I haven't found anything.

Hola. Vendido. Gracias por el interés.

Vendo kit de TrackIR hecho por mi. Incluye: - PS3 Eye modificada con una capa de disquette + Driver - TrackIR con carcasa impresa en 3D, con batería interna, puerto para cargar a través de USB, interruptor de encendido y apagado y led indicador de encendido. - Opcional: Auriculares donde va montado el TrackIR. He trasteado un poco con ellos y el micro ahora mismo no funciona, pero estoy seguro que es cuestión de volver a soldarlo bien, con un poco de maña. Si no se quiere, puedo desmontarlo y enviar solo el TrackIR y la PS3 Eye. Funciona perfectamente. Lo vendo porque me paso a la VR. Interesados escribir a mpavillard@gmail.com Envíos solo a España.

Thank you LucShep. I don't want to change the processor, I was just wondering if I needed to. So the RAM update and GPU should be ok? It's mainly DCS, yes, though I'll probably play some other vr games from time to time.

Thank you eracer1111. Not planning on changing the motherboard if I don't have to. Thoughts about the specs above? Ryzen 7 with B450 and a RTX 3080? does that make sense? is it needed? can I keep the Ryzen 5 and upgrade only the GPU or it will be too slow?

Hi. I'm thinking about upgrading my current setup, as I would like to play DCS on VR and I believe it's a little bit short for that. I have: MSI B450 tomahawk max Ryzen 5 3500 2x8 Gb G.Skill Ripjaws 3600 (already ordered a new set so it will be 32 Gb) Geforce GTX 1070 Now that the new Nvidia cards are about to come out, I thought of purchasing one of them to accommodate the pc for VR. I was thinking of the 3080, which is a huge upgrade for a reasonable price, and for googles, I want the hp reverb, but I'm going to wait for the gen 2 which is also about to come out. My questions are: Should I also upgrade the processor or it's not necessary? I believe I can't upgrade up to a Ryzen 9 with the b450, so it would have to be a ryzen 7, correct? At what point will my windows license fail to be valid if I change components in the pc? Thank you very much

I'm going to go for the DIY option, as I'm not too bad at these kind of projects. Thank you Baaz

May consider it for the future then. Thanks for the info. I'll start with the hat switches and see if I can get my hands on a tracIR device

Yes, I need to create a signature with my rig. I just built a budget one, but I think it would do the trick (maybe with some mora RAM). - Tomahawk B450 Max - Ryzen 5 3600 - Ripjaws 16Gb (2x8Gb) 3600mhz - GeForce GTX 1070 G1 8Gb

Thank you both. I've seen that the TrackIR is about $180? is it really worth it? you can go to a VR solution for just a bit more, can't you? what VR googles would you recommend?

Hi. I'm about to receive my brand new Logitech X56, and I was wondering about the viewing around the cockpit. How do you usually look around (when not using VR, obviously)? When I tried the game with the keyboard and mouse to see how it looks like and getting familiarized with some of the commands, you do that with the mouse, of course, but I wouldn't expect to have to remove my hand from the joystick to move around the mouse. Can the viewing around the cockpit be linked to one of the small joysticks in the stick, like the C-stick in the handle?

Hi. Can any administrator check out my user account? This is the only place in the forum I can post on.
