I fly mainly the F14 in VR. Altitude and speed gauges are completely fine to me. The only gauges I zoom in are the hydraulics when I check preflight, that’s about it. The only drawback compared to some other modules is that the cockpit does not have the same interaction with the controllers as other ED modules (F18, F16). Other modules provide haptics when you press buttons, as well as you don’t need to press the ‘grab’ button on the controllers to interact with the cockpit. In the F14 you do. Hopefully that will be changed at some point. otherwise absolutely amazing module and can only recommend!

Flew it again, turned hot a bit later once my wingman did, got the ‘strike package destroyed’ message this time still didn’t get the mission complete after completing case III or RTB call i can provide track files as needed. MT VR thanks

Hi, I’ve flown Interception mission twice now. first attempt, I turned hot on the enemy when they were around 50 NM. Then we clear the sky, I get no further calls. Do the Case III but no mission complete. second time I waited with turning hot until my wingman did. We clear the sky again. I get the ‘strike package destroyed’ massage by awacs. Yet, no RTB call. Again, completed the Case III but mission is still incomplete. I can provide track files for both times as needed. Any suggestions? edit: in F14 (couldn’t get answer in F14 forum, MT VR thanks

Hey! I’m on the fence of ordering it with the sale.. originally I wanted to wait until Black Friday. But I wonder what people think of this year’s VR lineup were expecting new Quest, new Index, which both will probably be better priced with foveated rendering. I wonder not only if they give a similar performance, but if they will also drive the Aero’s price down. Maybe worth to wait a little longer?

My bad - it’s Operation Cage the Bear title is changed accordingly. thanks for the headsup

Hi! the mission is called ‘interception’. I actually didn’t get any order. AWACS calls the fighters hot and they were around 50nm when I turned hot on them. did I attack prematurely? 50nm is a pretty close threat thanks!

Hi, Played this mission for the first time. I clear the sky along the other F14s over bullseye area. I get no radio call to RTB. When I request a picture from awacs it says it's clean. I returned to the boat and completed a case III recovery. When I landed, again, no message that I completed the mission. In the campaign menu I get a 'draw' for the mission. I have a logfile if needed. Is this a bug? Thanks Edit: this is on Open Beta MT version with OpenXR

Yep some of the master tests are not fully implemented currently. Hoping to see them in the future

Thank you. Yes I did that, the mission name has changed and that’s why my progress wasn’t showing up. So I copied the rest of the entries from the old log file under the new mission name. Not sure why copy and pasting wouldn’t work. But when I did that, in game I got a message that I lost my progress due to some changes and so my progress wasn’t showing up. Maybe next I’ll try entry by entry Edit: thank you guys, I was able to edit to log file after all. The issue was the mission name as it used to contain an ‘SC’ that is now gone. Once I removed the SC from the name of the missions, my progress was recovered.

So I tried to edit the log file. In game I get a message that Heatblur has changed the campaign and my progress has been reset. So editing the log file doesn’t help. So the only way to continue seems to be reverting to previous versions of DCS or skipping the missions. None of those feels right

Thank you, I’ll take a look as soon as I can

Hi, I’ve been stuck in that campaign on mission 7 due to the mission not progressing. Appreciate the fact that that’s been fixed. However, my career progression has been erased and I’d need to restart from mission 1. Any suggestions? thanks

I have seen that topic but it seemed most of the projects were DIY. I’ll take another look though

Hi, I have the Reverb G2 and I have an ultraleap tracker. I find that enabling ultraleap in DCS is ok to use MFDs, however it does not work well for side panels, and is very limited (just the left mouse click) when it comes to cold starts. For cold starts I find the VR controllers work very well and I don't mind using them at all. Now after starting up the airplane, it would be great to have a button that I can press that disables VR controllers and enables Ultraleap handtracking. Currently, I have to pause the game, go to menu, and do it on two different tabs. This breaks immersion. This would really make a difference when it comes to immersion and dealing with the limitations of ultraleap's current implementation in DCS. Any chance for this to happen?

I have a switch on the throttle base with 3 positions and would like to be able to turn the switch back to neutral without having to pick up my mouse

Yep, engine crank to neutral would be needed! Thanks

Hi, I am confirming the issue. I was flying the F14 in single player campaign, multithreaded version. Air-to-air radar warnings were working fine. I got shot down by an SA2 though - it launched two missiles, I got the RWR warning when they launched. First missile blew up, RWR signals went out; yet the second missile was still tracking and got me out of the blue. I can provide track if needed.

Thanks guys, that makes sense! Green shirt it is

Hey, before launching from the carrier, there is a crew member in black shirt, showing a 650 on the sign (it’s a pop-up). What does that mean? it’s probably not a black shirt, is it xD thanks!

Hi, I am wondering if the night vision goggles are realistic - meaning was it used in the F14 as it is in the SIM? thanks!

Finished the mission. Was able to defeat the fishcans with the two winders, but yea, no margin for error missed the bombing target tho. Well Paco helped out there. So I guess fair exchange of help there for the fishcans. Teamwork it is! very fun flying in formation with 3 Cats!

I have the G2 as well. I am running SteamVR Runtime and it’s working well for me. So I start SteamVR, then I run the MT version of DCS with the command line input. Might be worth a try!

What happened to me was after Paco assigned the bandits on the merge with the two Fishcans, Chig locks up the south bandit. I am going for the south bandit thinking that Paco is taking the north bandit. I believe Paco even calls out a Fox 2 at the north bandit, which made me follow through with chasing my assigned bandit. However, the north bandit - Paco's bandit - fires the missile at me and that got me. I understand that bandits can be unpredictable and any bandit can come after me. What confused is that Paco called the Fox 2 on his bandit, yet when I look at the Tacview he never fired one. And that allows the north bandit to come after me without any delay, before I realize that Paco did not deal with his bandit. Is this how it is intended? I can certainly approach the merge with different strategy, just wanted to let you know that Paco did not fire the Fox 2 he calls out ( unless that Fox 2 is called out by someone else on Tac?)

On the right you can see my first run-through with no retries. On the left is my second run-through with retries on the Unsats. The improvement definitely feels good, and definitely feeling like a more competent virtual pilot thanks to this campaign!

Hi! Your message caught my attention: I can use OpenXR toolkit even if I’m using SteamVR Runtime? Thanks!
