I use a track ball mouse I find it very steady for clicking switches

We saluted a few times after we were ready trying to get some action for the deck crew

Not sure where to post this. 9 of us tried to launch and the cat crew never tried to taxi us. We all saluted plane captain gave us the signal to start. As each of us got ready we saluted again and there we set. No statics on the carrier that I'm aware of I did not build the miz. So I'm not sure if its a us problem or if its a SC problem.

I have my dcs slider set to 95 and with openxr toolkit I lock my frames to 45. I'm also using Virtual Desktop with the 90hz setting. I get really smooth gameplay SP and MP my specs are in my sig. When I left everything at 90 and have the dcs fps showing I would see the stutter/skip if it dipped down in the upper50's or low 60's and back up to 90. With it locked at 45 I rarely get anything at all. On the FPS monitor staight fps line and the frame time line is really tiny zigzags. Don't know it it helps or not but thought I would post Happy New Year everyone J

Go over to Virtual Desktops Discord channel if you haven't already. They are real quick on replying to problems

ED is supposed to be doing server maintenance today here was their post in case this is your problem Master Server Infrastructure Maintenance We will have infrastructure maintenance on Tuesday December 17th 2024 from 04:00 UTC. All users will lose connection to the DCS Master server and all account sessions will be reset. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this short downtime. Thank you Eagle Dynamics

Virtual Desktop gets you away from using the meta pc app. Not sure how it works in the headset itself but I would assume that it still has to interact with the meta software in the headset

@The_Nephilim I have no idea if this will help or not whether I'm using link connection or Virtual desktop I'm set at 90hz but I use openxr toolkit to lock my frame rate at 45. This is with ASW disabled. I do not have the apache I mainly fly the hornet and tomcat in VR. If I look to the side I will see a little skip here and there but you really have to look for it. This is with the quest pro and eye tracking.

quest pro here also have a cheap charging cable from amazon and use a trackball mouse. I tried hand tracking but it was hit or miss for me and stuck with the trackball mouse

I fly VR on the main settings dcs tab and vr I do not have confine curser to game window checked on either screen. I do have use mouse checked on the vr tab J

Make sure your screen size resolution on the setup page matches to what you have your monitor display set to. I know it will mess up 2d not sure if it carries over to VR but something to check

About the only thing really use open xr toolkit for anymore is adjusting the colors and the sunglasses option. Helps with seeing the hud in bright backgrounds. J

If your using open xr toolkit have you made any changes to the Field of View setting. That setting worked fine for Virtual Desktop on my system but messed up if I tried to use oculus link one side was out of focus for me. Set it back to default 100 and everything was back to normal. J

I figured it out, for some reason oculus link does not like any changes with the Field of View setting in the openxr toolkit. With Virtual Desktop it works fine. I put it back to default 100 and oculus link is back to normal. It took me awhile to remember I had changed it tweaking Virtual Desktop. Thanks for responding guys J

I'm set up so I can use Virtual Desktop or quest link just so if one gest broke I have a back up. Been using Virtual Desktop most of the time popped back in with quest link for a quick flight my eyeballs feel like their going to pop out of my head. Everything looks fine but it feels like my eyes are straining to focus if that makes sense. Go back to Virt desktop no problem. This is just with DCS quest home screen and stuff seem to be fine. Was wondering if anyone else have run into this. My quest is on ver 69 on the computer app and headset I have tried this with and without my debug settings and different refresh with oculus J

I know that you have a Q3 but here are my Oculus Debug Tool settings that I use with my Q pro if they will help any J

Yes both are working for me. If i had eye tracking checked and quad views in dcs . The view would lock up checking your 6. I dont know what the eye tracking option is supposed to work with but with it checked it broke xrneck. With it uncheckef everything works

If any of you are using XRToolkit there is a Sunglass option with 3 presets which helps a lot with seeing the HMD. J

I know this is an older post but I had the same problem with my Quest Pro. I un checked the eye tracking option but left the quadviews checked on the DCS config screen. Everything is working now quad views and XRnecksaver along with my xrtool kit settings. J

@Lord Vader I just wanted to add to this and I could be doing something wrong so please correct me if that is the case. I used 2 bombers at roughly 38 mile in an orbit. If i goto lhacq while looking at them through the Hud no radar lock if I go back to rws or tws i get a return or a lock within 2 sweeps. With no locks while there in the hud and lhacq and I manuever to get them off to one side off of the hud glass i will eventually get a lock. trac file attached J hmd.trk

yes I use virtual desktop. I have not had the game close/minimize during play

I get the same thing scared me at first thinking DCS had crashed.

I have not used it for a backup image yet but I downloaded DiskGenius and have messed around with it. Have warched a few Youtube vids seems fairly simple to use. Right now I have been using SK hynix software that came with my SSD drives only downside is that you must have one of there drives installed to use their software. But I do keep a backup image of my C drive and my E drive DCS on 2 separate SSD's. When windows goes south I can have the drive reimaged fairly quickly and I dont have to reinstall all my other programs. J

I started with a quest2 then the reverb G2 and now currently using a Quest Pro. I don't have the beefiest of systems but have been really happy with the performance and visuals with this headset. I bounce back and forth between using USB link and Virtual Desktop for DCS and at this point in time the software for both are working really well. The only problem that I had was here awhile back Meta updated their software and DCS would not run. Luckily there were a few work arounds and the problem got fixed. Most of the guys in our squad that have gotten into VR or upgraded have gone with the Quest3 with a few Crystals in the mix there. Just wanted to share my VR journey so far J

In the main headset menu not the computer app goto the green gear settings icon then system it will be in the display tab "enable fit adjustment" also on the tracking tab it has auto ,50hz,60hz I set mine to 60hz
