Awesome :thumbup: Now all we need is a release date! :D :beer: :joystick:

nineline said no. The A8 is a tough cookie for cal 50, i don't know how accurate this is but a B-17 gunner has a hard time killing me in my A8 while i get wrecked in seconds if i Im in a K4 or the D9. But i got couple of times where i couldn't use several cannons/mg anymore because my plane was looking like a sieve, but i was still flying :joystick:. Maybe because this is EA and WIP, for example you can fly all the time with max throttle without your engine overheating.

This was talked about before the EA already, i quote Yo-Yo here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3940314&postcount=23 Thread: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=242623 So, if anybody can come up with a better source than the "Teil 7 Flugzeug-Handbuch" - Part 7 Flight Manual - and an former FW190 A8 pilot i think ED is willing to change it but don't expect them to do it because you read about it on the web or in book. Or am i mistaken and you are not talking about the same thing discussed in the older thread? :beer:

I hope so, i can't wait to fly this beauty. This little bird must be a blast in VR :joystick::D

It's not a lie it's just a placeholder, it was the same thing with the F-14....they have to put a date in there(steam rules) and can't say autumn/winter....and nobody prevents them to change that date to whatever they want to. Thats why nobody cares about steam release dates for dcs modules, if it's not officially announced on the ED store/forum.

I didn't try the KC-135 yet but i did AAR in the F-18 and had the wake turbulence behind the S-3, IL-76, also behiind An-26, Mig-29 in an F-18 and FW-190A8, can't remember if the B-17 had this effect. In the FW-190A8 behinf the Antonov i was surprised by it, got rolled 90° before i could react :joystick: :D Only one option in the gameplay tab to enable it.

Try to recentering your view with the numpad 5 key, that works for me if my view is screwed up in DCS with the Rift S. I don't know if you need the oculus tray tool for this to work but i installed it so the oculus software is not starting anytime i start a game even without the Rift connected to my PC.

Yes the VR patch is not in yet, but they fixed a memory leak and replaced trees with ones that perform better. So, overall perfromance was increased with the 2.5.5 beta patch but the VR patch has yet to come.

Hi, i'm new to VR but i noticed in my first flight with the A8 that the sight is behaving weird. Attached are two pictures, i'm not an artist so forgive the simplicity. If i move my head left right or right left i would expect the gun sight to behave like in the first picture but it's like in the second. The reticle moves and then jumps like if it's changing from left to right eye and at some point it's merging.

Just finished my first quick flight and i can confirm the things marked bold in the quote, didn't try the other things yet.

I have accomplished my first flight too. What a lovely lttle bird, thank you very much for this ED! :thumbup: PS: Recently got into VR, am i the only one who thinks the WW2 birds are way easier to fly in VR?

Yes, i know that. What he ^^ said :D We can't change it, so what...have some fun. :beer:

Could be, but i don't think so. Wags said they will release this patch this time if the 3r party module is working or not. But heh, maybe the latest fix for that module screwed everything up....:music_whistling: Who knows, who cares....

But the last two delays was because of a 3rd party module not being ready/working for/with version 2.5.5. So technically this is a new reason for the delay.

Works for me, i'm running the OB.

Yes, i did that. I did this again and touched my desk to be the "ground", looks good now. Sorry for spamming such stupid questions here. :beer: And by the way, now that it works it's a blast! :joystick::thumbup:

I tried to connect the Rift S at the same Ports like yesterday and i had the same problems. Long story short, i reinstalled Win 10 and now everything works perfectly fine. It seems i screwed something up back in my first Win 10 days with the Win 10 privacy programm. But know i have a "little" problem, i have to stand now to have my virtual head aligned with my RL head. If i sit down in my chair to have access to my HOTAS and pedals i'm looking directly at the stick in game :D Anyone has a quick solution for me? Something like a button click to center the camera like with TrackIR?

I found my problem, the camera was enabled in my win 10 settings but i remembered after first installing win 10 and all the "calling home debate" that i played with a little program called win 10 privacy. In this programm i disabled the camera(never used one myself), undid this and now everything workes fine. :thumbup: :beer: Except the hand controllers, in the oculus "home/menu" (don't know how to call it) they are sticking to my face and i can't use them there(connected in the software), but that i will figure out later at the weekend. Thank you!

Hi everyone, i'm totally new to VR and just got my Rift S today. I installed the software, it was updating the FW of the Rift S and after that i tried to run the setup to configure the Rift S and there i run out of luck. I connect the USB cable, wait until the LED in the rift turns from orange to white, plug in the DP cable, both show as connected/green in the software but the next step fails. I tried every USB port on my PC including one on my powered USB HUB but i always get an error telling me "...Sensors can not detect headset..." something like that(i'm running the software with german language settings). If i skip the setup and look into my the oculus software/device i can see the Rift S as active with a geen check but all i see in the Rift S is a rectangle with 3 white flashing dots. A quick google search didn't show me the fix for my problem, so i'm asking you guys. Anybody out there who can help me get this thing running?

Like said by my two previous speakers, ED and Belsimtek merged, there is no seperate Belsimtek anymore. They did atleast the PFM for the FC F-15C and they worked on parts of the F-18 if i remember correct

Yes that is what i quoted.... But thats the same as if i would say the "Leopard1/2 tank was using a 105mm and 120mm gun", it's not clear which version used what weapon, thats what iwanted to say.

Do you have a direct link? Because the only thing i can find in your quoted link is the F-16 C/D Block 50/52 article which states:"...The Block 50/52 is capable of carrying the new JDAM munition, the AGM-154A/B JSOW and is the first F-16 version to integrate the AGM-84 Harpoon antishipping missile....." So no clear statement which one could carry it. I would love to see it on the F-16 but i doubt our version can do it.

+1

That's why they test/bugfix this patch since last week.

You could put your point of view in your signature instead of quoting everybody who is happy with purchasing an EA product on the forums. This would save you alot of time and us reading the same statement for the hundredth time(at least felt). No hard feelings against you :beer:
