Hello, So i get JTAC on the comms and they add these red markers. At some point i've blown through half a dozen JTAC requests and the TAD is littered with red markers. How can i make out which is the current/active JTAC request? Thanks.

No subscription model please. I've already forked out on most modules, so there's a lot of us out there i suspect who will be at a disadvantage. For a subscription model to work it should have been done early on. Now its not to say if a new engine or entire game comes out then maybe that could work. I am not sure how sustainable the existing DCS engine is. If you look at Bohemia Interactive with ARMA, they took the 2001 engine and ran it down to hell until ARMA 3 in 2013. They've now moved to a new engine but it is taking a considerable time to rebuild everything. I suspect ED is in the same place, but they are sticking with their own engine for now.

Literally that. Takes me around 3 weeks to learn basics after that its just about improving BVR/dogfighting and muscle memory. I really really really enjoy touching buttons and things in the cockpit. I tried FC3 when i started DCS and got bored in 30 mins. I find the same with other combat sims e.g. IL2 and even MSFS2020 (when most buttons are INOP).

thanks, cant believe i haven't found that watching all the vids.

Sorry, newbie here. I constantly get problems in the f16 when there's a line of contacts ahead of me and i want to launch in TWS. In the hornet you can spread targets out, but i cant find any option in the f16. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks, working now!

Thanks. For 2. I think @Qcumber and your answer to 1 just made me realised the default runtime was set to VD. I need to try to set it to steamVR then relaunch the game. Will report back after that's done.

Thank you. It looks like VD was set as the current runtime and i was running Quest 3 in DCS all this time probably in some other mode unless it used oculus OpenXR. Sorry, you might be able to help with these questions too. Will try to explain: How can i switch between the OpenXR profiles. Some days i use Quest 3, sometimes Pico 4 via VD. I want it to point to the correct launch. Pico 4 i am now trying the new Pico Connect beta. I have applied the additional hack to give godlike resolution. When i launch in SteamVR via MT, the game only displays in 2D TV screen mode. Thanks.

oh please give me fix. I Launch Pico Connect > Launch SteamVR > Pick MT Steam VR > Result = DCS in desktop mode within SteamVR.... Works fine in non MT but laggy.

sorry, stupid question. I have Pico 4 and Quest 3. In Pico 4 OpenXR just works straight from launching in Virtual Desktop. In Quest 3 i have no idea. How can i know if OpenXR is working?

ok im probably the same then. Rocking a 4090 everything's running fine as it is. I got the pixel density at 1.5x. Just wish we had better AA options, DLAA makes me drunk.

thanks, dont have pimax.

what is qvfr and how to enable?

rtx 4090, i get choppy/crackling audio from the built in headset speakers so i default to my desktop speakers and no issue.

DLAA is the perfect balance but it makes me feel ill after a while. Its like i drank half a bottle of whisky and sat in the cockpit. Everything shimmering and blurring.

VD only on the Pico as it doesn't do wired connections. Link cable on Q3.

Must be something wrong then. I swear the first day i got the pico 4 and ran DCS it was a lot clearer. I could easily see the cockpit labels and around the edges of the lens. Now it feels like the Quest 3 is what i experienced on day 1 with the Pico. I was using Godlike, 150MB H265 10 bit via OpenXR

Hello, Today i tried the Quest 3 for the first time using the link cable. I'm not sure if its placebo or somethings happened but my Pico 4 is seriously very blurry using VD. It feels like there's a sweet spot in the middle but the edges are blurred. Kind of brings me back to the Quest 2 Fresnel days. The clarity and performance on the Quest 3 is absolutely stunning, albeit a little of chromatic aberration on the edges, hardly noticeable. If anyone wants to know i am using a RTX 4090, everything all maxed out. For the Pico on VD i have a 6ghz router right next to me so no loss of network performance/quality, but it still feels choppy. If anyone else has tried both headsets let me know. Thanks.

Thanks so much. When you mean cannot control brightness, do you mean even following the manual and it wont even work with that i.e the two button press and using the knob?

So i just got my Viper TQS, plugged it in without booting DCS and got the standard green lights. I am unable to change the led light intensity (i've followed the TM manual i.e pressing the two buttons and moving the knob) I don't have any other lights such as for the gear lever or the "bricks" and "wheels". I assume i need to download this and it will automatically get the other lights to work in DCS?

orion 2 for sale?

bumping my question in hope someone sees it. Thanks.

I got a 4090, can anyone tell me what is the best anti aliasing options and VD setting combination to max the headset/DCS? I seem to be getting decent frames at 90hz with FXAA 4x so i think i can push it more and use some better anti aliasing options. Thanks.

Thank you. Good to know, i will turn that off and try again. Did you apply anything to the steam slider to get that 3850x3850 as that's what i have it set to also?

I got a RTX 4090 + 5800x3d. I wonder how far i can push the pico? Tried DCS Liberation - 150mbps HEVC 10 bit and strangely it locked to 90 fps and around 50ms with some limited dips. I had everything maxed out. Did i miss something here or did i just get lucky?
