Before the 3d printed part, I tried to replicate my Saitek X65 settings and I got really close with it (I fly online F18, F5E, F15, , F14, M2000C, Huey, Hind) For starter you can try the following MFFSB force settings before you do any thing in terms of modding, X and Y axis force to 30% or below, mine was 25% Mode set to Force + Displacment with displacment % set to 40% In game DCS, Y-axis set to user curve "attached" (you can tune the curve to your liking by making it more or less sensitive), some jets I have the same curve for the X-axis. To answer your questions 1- In terms of 3d printed part, I printed it at the shop as I didnt have a 3D printer, however they mentioned it need to be printed really slow to get it correctly. Install one 3d printed part for each axis (make sure to print spares so its ready when needed). 2- Limit reeds (Spring plates) are small metal plates acts as resistance plates or springs to stop the physical movement of the axis, I have 2 reeds for Y-axis, and 1 for X-axis (mentioned in the manual for MFSSB kit here MFSSB Manual 3- PCB is the circuit board The way I did it is to loosen the 2 screws for PCB in picture marked in black box instead of the red box

@Beezer thank you kind sir for the STL file, I did the 3d print with PLA and ABS, I have inserted ABS and so far so good. I have it set as Force only with 25% X-axis ( 1 reed) and 27%-Y axis (2 reeds). It feels more like Saitek X65 (I love that stick). I found out its better to losen the pcb instead of the 2 calibration screws, that way, the calibration stays intact, didnt need to add any dead zone. null

Would this 3D print break inside the Joystick as its 2 thin?

Is yours recentering in simapp pro? Or the deadzone needed there

I tired the cardboard trick however I still see a small step (smaller than before), currently have 2 reeds on pitch axis and 1 on roll. Simpro setting, Fore+Displacment, value set to 29% Regarding Deadzone, at the moment I have it at zero as I managed to tune it without the need for it, my understanding the deadzone required due to the physical movment of the stick, is that correct?

FInally, as an Iraqi who lived through Iraq - Iran war, First and Second Gulf wars, this will be very intersting. I just hope this map is modeled correctly and in more detailed than persian gulf.

@BouwplanUse this if no other solution worked. License is very cheap and works with my 13900k https://bitsum.com/parkcontrol/

Anyone managed to tune the colors for Q3 via openxr toolkit?

I suffered from this when I upgraded to 13900k earlier this year, best solution was to use park control by bitsum (paid software, I have nothing to do with the company). I created a game profile to force it out of parking once DCS is launched. https://bitsum.com/parkcontrol/ By the way, I tested few games at that time and all when launched forced my cpu out of park except DCS.

Yes with 4090, 13900k 72Hz, MSAA 2, ASW off in heavy online servers

@mbucchia sorry didnt know, deleted.

That's high, what's the gpu and compression codec are you using? I had it before high and the fix was to reset dcs world nvidia profile.

Try this Smoothing Radius 10 Crop 12 Motion Model Affinte Suppression Mode Strict

@Devrim sorry for tag, Mirrors not working with this.

Hello, Would it be possible for someone to make this mod compatible with current DCS version please. I couldn't make it to work, as far as I could tell, it's missing gun counter, chaff counter and flare counter. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3302506/ A-10A is used alot in ECW server however there are no new cockpit mods for it, Horse of War was the best mod however no longer work. Thanks in Advance.

@Readyhow did you do OBS: No render lag and no encoder lag. Couldn't figure it out

So If I install it in saved game folder/mods/terrain/Caucasus/vfstextures/ Won't work?

Do I install this in the main installation folder or saved game folder?

Thanks for all the feedback. Today I almost paid for pimax 8k then decided to wait for Pimax Crystal Qled as it's just around the corner.

Last question, how good is the vive software with DCS? I have standalone version and currently use openxr with quest 2, I play 90hz and get about 90% of time 45fps.

Thanks for the feedback. 2 questions and hope you can answer them, How bad is the glare in DCS? Open xr works with it or not, maybe Opencomposite with dcs? Thank you

Thanks for the feedback @Pyker @Supmua. I am still doing my research however I am favoring the Vive Pro 2 just because I can buy the full kit easier plus Pimax dont ship directly to where I live hence it would be a hassle to get every part via differnt sources (Amazon, ebay, etc) and probably takes a month or more to get everything in order. Also considering having neck problem, I sense the Vive Pro 2 is more comfortable and not as bulky as Pimax. Regarding FOV, coming from Quest 2, I'll still have the FOV upgrade with Vive 2 116 degree comparing to 97 degree in Quest 2. Pimax 8K, or Varjo Aero both above my budget (saving some money for CPU/Mobo upgrade)

As per title, looking to upgrade my HMD (Oculus Q2) to Pimax or Vive and looking for people recommendation if possible. The 8K also under consideration however I dont think any current PC system can utlilize the full 8K with current DCS engine (maybe I am wrong) I am looking for feedback regarding picture clearity, colors, ease of setup, weight, comfortability, etc. Also for DCS do I need 1 or 2 VR bases? My current PC Spec, 3080TI, 9700K ( upgrade soon, waiting for 5900x 3D or 13 gen Intel) 64Gb Ram @ 3600 Mhz Thanks in Advance

I have not seen your instructions before in the thread. After cleaning the registry and reinstalling everything, it finally worked. Thank you SIR

for Opencomposite, I meant do I need it installed on my PC since using Oculus as the default OpenXR timeframe? gonna try this again tonight, just cleaned/repaired DCS via DCS Updater Utility, removed Opencomposite and reinstalled OpenXr toolkit. More than happy to buy you a 6 pack of beer if you help me get this thing working, just need to correct the colors of DCS with the tool
