  1. Same for me in terms of everything else working fine. Very random in my case, happens in multiplayer when I'm in a fight, seems to be just the once in any session on a server but it can empty your ammo boxes pretty quickly.
  2. I also have this exact same problem, only in spitty and very random. I've checked my Warthog with the control panel s/w all works fine, nothing sticking, press and release registered sharply.
  3. Have you taken a look at Air Combat Tutorial Library on YouTube. www.youtube.com/@RequiemsACTL null
  4. Quick update on above. Have a sequence that gets me running in DCS MT every time. Boot DCS Let DCS boot WMR Select a multiplayer server. SRS initiates, so agree to SRS booting. Well it does I can navigate to XRNS (its in my tray along bottom of my screen) select it and it boots. Alt/Tab back to DCS as live screen and all works fine FYI when I check FPS. I have Red CPU Bound message. It isn't when i check on performance manager its around 30-50%. GPU is at 90-100% but not reporting Bound. Many others reporting the same
  5. Here's my experience. I've a I9, 3090, 64G Ram and a Reverb G2...is motherboard a factor? Apart from the first boot in MT which worked, subsequent boots didn't. I had a normal image on my monitor but in my headset I'd see the standard hanger inverted, nice picture but no sign of the menu screen. On other occasions I'd get a mostly black image in the headset with a slither of the home screen menu on right side. There was also a hint of static noise in the largely black screen. I read about XRNS being a possible issue, so I didn't start it or SRS....Some success, I had a higher hit rate in terms of getting DCS running in MT, I could even start XRNS and SRS post DCS boot and it all worked. However on most occasions it takes me about 5 goes to get DCS to boot this way, the failures being as described above. I always have the correct image on my monitor. It almost seems like there is a timing element in play as to when I initiate the G2 in relation to the DCS boot screen with it seems greater success if i fire up the G just as the 2 x progress bars come across the screen. I'm not a computer wizard but to me there is a random nature as to when I get MT to boot properly which doesn't sound very computery to me. Is theis a G" problem or a DCS problem...or both?
  6. I get this also, with the odd random occasion when MT has booted. Not sure what is going on and nowhere near smart enough with computers/IT to be able to work it out
  7. Take a look at this site, there is also a discord. Thud's VR4DCS I have the G2 with an i9, 3090 card and 32G. Working through the recommendations on VR4DCS I managed top get the G2 working pretty well, but you'll still need to teak as you go. I think VR performance varies depending on the server and even the map you are in and I learned quite a bit about the upside and downside in terms of performance, of changes and tweaks that seem to be required. I've got a lot of my graphics settings at the high end and still get around 45fps in my Spitty on WW2 servers. Just getting into the F16 and same setting seem to be OK in term,s of FPS, but I need to sharpen cockpit detail a bit
  8. Me being stupid. All sorted and happily firing rockets and dropping bombs
  9. Thanks for this Art-J. I'll go through your suggestions and see if it addresses. I hadn'r realised rockets on bombs were on different button, I though you could use just the one mapped button which released whichever ordnance was selected in the cockpit. I'll go take a look at that now.
  10. Just wanted to add that rockets in the Mossie have been working fine for me until the recent DCS Open Beta update which i installed last night. Now I can load then flick the relevant switches but I cannot fire them as I could before using joystick button 2. I cleared the cell and remapped button 2 but still no joy. Tried a different joystick button assignment, still no joy. What I didnt do was see if joystick button 2 allowed me to release bombs. Will try tomorrow. Button 2 is working, I jumped in a Spitty and mustange and it works as mapped for cqannons and rockets.
  11. Thanks for this info, Been distracted with an issue around my Reverb G2 not working but that sorted now, so will take a look at this tomorrow. Kev
  12. Hi, Sorry if this is a pretty basic question but my IT skill are at best Basic. When I run DCS on the inital page when I go to controls the window for tweaking control bindings etc is really small, as is the SRS window and the normal ATC automated comms you get, top right. I've a 4K monitor set to 3840 x 2160 as recommended by Windows. Also although I have the setting selected for DCS to come up windowed, it comes up full screen. Have I a basic setting wrong somewhere? Kev
  13. Hi Tony, I'm new to DCS, have just got a great spec computer and chose Reverb G2 VR as my headset. Had the usual HP error messages when setting up, loads of on line help to address those. Initially just had standalone DCS and didn't get it going in VR even with WMR. I signed up for DCS on Steam as well and downloaded Steam VR. Now I can play via Steam, (just select Play and select VR option), it all auto loads. If I want to play Standalone in VR, via WMR running in the headset, I select desktop and then select the standalone Shortcut on the desktop, It then utilises SteamVR to load your standalone version.
  14. Hi, new to DCS, you might say this is my mid life crisis . Just got the spit at the moment, can sort of take off and sort of land...long as you don't want to use the aircraft again Air to Air gunnery in training ok, well they tend to fly straight and level. In a dogfight can get on the tail and stay on the tail of an ME or FW but struggling to shoot them down.....One of their mates tends to shoot my tail off well I'm still trying to kill the guy on my nose. No idea of radio or comms yet, not been on a server yet as don't think I'm good enough, the guys on the YouTube video's make it look so easy don't they? Going to keep practicing until I can take off, land and shoot something down somewhere in the middle.
