I get engine ice warnings in the hornet when flying through rain clouds. Had to search for the deicing switch (which I had never actually used before). Not sure if you could actually crash from icing, but at least a warning was triggered.

I solved the stuttering by running at 72hz in the oculus software and locking frame rate at 72hz in nvidia software. I have only played single player for the moment, but im putting a ton of units in missions. rtx 2070 super ryzen 7 3900 (I think) motherboard has it running at 4.4mhz with just the built in overclocking in bios. 64gb ddr4 (never peak above 35gb at high distance view setting in DCS) if I use frame rate counter it stays around 36 even at airfield and carrier. From my experience, consistent frame rate over high frame rate as long as you stay above 30-35.

While it’s obvious that 2D clouds render better than in VR, it’s the same for any object at a distance. The clouds we have gotten in 2.7 are far and away better than before! Thanks ED for a great product, and continually working to improve it! Nothing is as good visually in VR vs 2D. We sacrifice that visual quality for the immersion that VR achieves. That said, it would be amazing if ED could get clouds in VR looking closer to 2D!

Yes!

I'd gather most of us mount the HOTAS on our desktop vs. creating a whole PIT. My biggest concern at the moment after ordering an Orion setup, is the dimensions compared to my old X-52pro. If it doesn't fit on my desk, I'm in trouble... From the pics, I think I'm OK, and for the problem you describe, I can most likely change the angle of my desk suction cup mount to make it comfortable.

I disabled hand tracking, which seemed to be when I first started experiencing the disconnects. No Joy. Still getting them, although I can click the Oculus link quickly and get back in the game. I think reverting back to V24 software may be the solution since V25 is when I learned about hand tracking and started trying it. Soon after, disconnects all the time...

Since Oculus support has asked to run the log compiling program and send it, we shouldn't assume it's automatic. If it's automatic, why would they request for me to gather the logs and send them in an email? Do the Oculus logs help the DCS team? Should we give them here to help find the problem?

I've been getting them on mission start as soon as the world is loaded. Running the overclocks is the only thing that's helped so far, but that's how I get good frames with a crisp cockpit anyway. I did lower the pixel density to 1.5 from 2.5 and turned civ traffic from Medium to off. The troubling part is I was getting good performance from the initial settings as of Sunday all day. For what it's worth, lowering those two settings helped lower my disconnects, though they still happen. Edit: Also, since resetting the BIOS auto overclock and using MSI software for extreme performance, I have been able to reconnect to the game after it drops back to the Oculus menu. Quickly click on the Oculus link in the quick actions. Not great in the middle of action, but livable during a cold start/flying to waypoint.

Thanks for the reply! I've been in contact with Oculus support and have given them logs. I bought a new Oculus USB-C cable, and still get disconnects. Since I already tried on a different Oculus headset, I'm guessing it has to lie in the software on one side or the other. Currently I'm overclocking through the BIOS, as well as MSI software just to be able to do basic training missions without disconnecting.

I've been playing in VR for about a month. Everything was going well. I got some great settings which were so incredibly immersive, words can't describe. I'm sure fellow VR users can understand the difference. Since Monday, When I load into the world, I am getting disconnects. I've been troubleshooting with Oculus support, and I'm puzzled why it worked great on Sunday, but Monday I can't even do a carrier landing mission without multiple disconnects. Curiously, In the past when I had disconnects, I could see DCS on my monitor in VR mode, but could not reconnect. Yesterday, I COULD reconnect to the sim, but it would disconnect again after a short amount of time. Today, I did the factory reset and all that crap they want you to do, and now I'm back to not being able to reconnect to the sim. I tried my wife's Oculus, and the same issues. Anybody else have a similar experience? Google has not helped. Any ideas?
