Hi, I would like DCS to charge me for system updates. At the moment it is still like this: for a new map or a new plane ED asks for money, with which they finance the development of the core. I feel that this prioritizes the development of the aircraft and weapon systems. If we as users want the development of the game core to go faster - e.g. for VR or AI, then we need to fund ED better. I don't know - maybe 10 € for each system update?

I tried it again today in an F14. In my opinion, nothing has changed. If you seat in the F14, then the outdoor model is not complete. Probably to save resources. This is also the case in the Gazelle. If I click Ctrl+F11, then the outside model is complete. It would be nice to go where you are looking with the HMD. Not with the mouse wheel

What's new in VR - Free Cam Mode

This is how it has always worked ! What has been improved after the last update. It would be great if you don't have to set the direction with the mouse, but if you go in the direction you are looking.

how do you take notes in the video? (min 1:25) You are in VR... How can you see the notes under the HMD?

Hi, Can I just update the app or do I need to delete something first? And how can I update?

I am German. I can speak and understand some English, but I can't translate the radio messages in the missions fast enough. I would like to have a plugin/feature that translates simultaneously. My iPad can do that I have a dream...

I just tried it again: if I deactivate the option "Hands move the stick/throttle, my virtual left hand disappears. It does not come back then either. So I have to activate the option "Hands move the stick/throttle" - but I have to be careful that the virtual hands don't grab the stick/throttle. When I move my head back and forth, my virtual hands move as well, which causes the stick/throttle to move - but I don't want that. This still seems to be a bug - I hope anyway

Good points! I still have the problem that when I deactivate "Hands move stick " (I don't know what the function is called), one of my hands disappears as soon as I move the stick or throttle. That's why I leave this function on. You just have to be careful that your real hands don't get too close to the virtual sticks and throttles in the cockpit. Otherwise the virtual hands will make the control inputs.

I am sitting in a car seat. I can push it forward and backward. If my virtual fingers can't reach the buttons, I can use "Move cockpit view forward" and a keybinding to move closer to the control buttons. That's the first thing I do when I go into the HMD. I will still paint the cockpit mockup black. That way I will have a better tracking. The Leap Motion I had also tried to attach via Velcro. Also with me the devices were too hot and the tape did not hold. Note that the virtual hands are tracked in relation to the headset. It could be that the hands are displayed in the wrong position due to the high position on the HMD.

Hi, I would like to briefly share my ideas here regarding the mounting of Leap Motion Controller on the Hp Reverb G2 and the possibility - despite the lack of buttons and switches - to still have the feeling of pressing a button. For the mounting of the Leap Motion Controller on the Hp Reverb I use "Worbla". This material can be heated with a heat gun and then bent into a desired shape. When it cools down, the shape remains and the material becomes solid again. This way you can also glue two layers of Worbla together to give the material more strength. (See photos) To press a switch, I don't use real switches, but soft foam, which I glue on a hard foam plate. Here for the Viper. This way I am not forced to find exactly the point (in height, right/left flush in depth), where to find the button in the VR cockpit. Nevertheless, I have the feeling of pressing a button. It's a bit difficult to find the right distances while wearing the HMD. But with the help of my lovely wife it worked I point where something is in VR and she draws a line or says the distances. Maybe this will give you some ideas of your own Photos.zip

Hi, Is it possible to get the Gemini Throttle/Collective Base in combination with a throttle head? I do not need the many switches of an Orion throttle. But I need the switches that are directly on the throttle head.

Do you also have the problem that when you move your head a little to the left and right and hold your hands in front of you at the same time, the virtual hands move shortly in the same direction - but then swing back to the middle position?

Das ist ja cool! Den Jetseat habe ich mir nicht gekauft, weil ich mich manchmal zum Einsteigen ins virtuelle Cockpit auf den Sitz stelle. Ich hätte die Sorge, dass dadurch die Motoren kaputt gehen…

Das ist sowieso ein gute Idee. Wer schon einmal mit der F14 mit einem ButtKicker unterm Stuhl vom Träger aus gestartet ist, weiß was ich meine

Ich würde VR an deiner Stelle unbedingt ausprobieren. Das ist einfach ein völlig andere Nummer als 2D. Motion Sickness hatte ich. Mein Hirn schwappte nach jeder Kurve nach und brauchte einen Moment, um wieder klar zu werden - vor allem beim Rollen auf dem Boden. Es hat ca. 6 Wochen gebraucht, und jetzt kann ich alles machen. Mit einem Humwee rumfahren, Kunstflug (sogar einen Vollkreis mit Rollen fliegen in der Christen Eagle). Macht mir alle nix mehr aus.

I wrote to ED about this. They said that the API is available to all, but it is up to the companies to implement Leap motion. Heartblur writes that they are not thinking about it at the moment, but maybe in the future.

Alles klar, vielen Dank für die Info. Dann räume ich meine SSD mal auf, dann passt da wieder was drauf. RAM habe ich 32 GB, das sollte reichen.

Hi, ich habe in meinem Rechner nur eine SSD verbaut. Da ist alles drauf - auch DCS. Und die ist mittlerweile gut gefüllt. Vor einiger Zeit habe ich gelesen, dass man DCS auf einer eigenen SSD speichern sollte. Ich kenn mich jetzt nicht so gut mit Windows aus, aber bringt das Auslagern von DCS auf eine SSD auch Geschwindigkeitsvorteile während ich fliege? DCS startet eigentlich schnell genug, deswegen bräuchte ich also keine neue SSD. Aber irgendwelche Auslagerungsdateien spielen vielleicht eine Rolle. Kann mir da jemand einen Tipp geben?

Probierst mal mit buttkicker Gamer 2…ist allerdings im Moment schwer zu bekommen.

Vielen Dank fürˋs Feedback!

Hi, kann mir jemand sagen, ob ich OVGME geöffnet haben muss, wenn ich in DCS fliege und die Mods aktiviert sein sollen? oder kann das Programm geschlossen bleiben?

Now it works! Thanks for your quick support !

Yes, on the cycle. I need to use srs in the gazelle

I have a stupid question: where can I find the PTT button?
