This is the way. With an extension you can’t tell where the zero point is and I don’t want to use the soft center detent cams. doubling up the cams gives a strong centering force without the clunk of a detent.

So I typically fly the F-18 so changing frequencies for the two different AWACS isn't an issue. Not to mention data link. But when flying the F15C, you rely heavily on the bogey dope calls. In growling Sidewinder's PVP server he has two AWACS setup for the Blue side. After using RSHIFT+M twice to make sure only you can only hear requested calls, when I request bogey dope via a key bind, I can here the AWACS try to speak and then it immediately cuts out. (I think I am just out of range) And when using the keybind I can only contact the overlord 1-1. But if I use the communication window, I can select the other AWACS (magic 1-1), find the bogey dope in the communication menu and it will work just fine. Problem is, trying to do that in VR is incredibly difficult. So basically, using the bogey dope command keybind just doesnt work depending on where you are at on the map. I am just wondering if I am doing something wrong. I cant tune radios to make the Magic 1-1 the primary radio for bogey dope calls.

Can you post the link to the reddit page? I googled this crap out of this for weeks before giving up and just posting it onto here because I just could not find information on it let alone a solution. Felt like I was the only one having the issue there for a bit.

Do you know this for sure? I only say that because the controllers work flawlessly in every other game including VtolVR which also has the option to run in openXR. I also used steam VR’s controller calibration to look at how the buttons are depressed and everything looks correct in there as well. This leads me to believe it is an issue with ED’s support for these specific VR controllers because the triggers are both an axis and a button.

Jesus Christ, I just realized in the CBU fuses, the PRI and OPT are just short for primary and optional meaning you can set both of them in the rearming window and then choose which one you want when in the air. But you can’t change the times for PRI and OPT unless you are on the ground.

I found in my pimax crystal that if the controllers aren’t in view of the tracking cameras when starting up DCS they won’t show.

I tried to post this in the general bugs section but it got completely ignored. So maybe I will try this forum. I fly mainly in VR and a very annoying bug has popped up. It honestly took me a while to even realize something was wrong because it is subtle. Both my VR controllers seem to not function the way that it used to. The triggers will emulate a mouse click. They still do but when I hold the trigger down, it glitches out and immediately releases the trigger in the game even though I am still holding it. This means that I can essentially get one click but can't get a click and hold. This is annoying because I cannot use the trigger to hold down buttons on the F/A-18's IFEI panel for setting BINGO fuel. I have to pull the trigger 40 times to set 4000lbs. I used to be able to just hold down the trigger and set it. And because it emulates a click and hold, once you start holding down the button you no longer have to point the controller perfectly at the button. I have attached a short video showing what the glitch is. Its hard to explain it but I am holding down the trigger on the VR controller and it is not in the game. I have checked if it was a malfunction just in both of my other controllers and it appears they are working fine in games like VTOL VR and even just steam VR's home screen. When playing in DCS I only play in OpenXR using the Pimax Play. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know if use an HMD for locking up enemies and you don’t stay in the cockpit view that replicates your head movements, you will not actually lock anyone up in the replay track and therefore your missile will not track once fired. That one is annoying.

Been trying to use the A2G radar in DCS. Runs fine up until I try to use the expand modes. Wonder if anyone else is having this issue. dcs.log-20231217-210702.zip

I was hoping there was a dedicated hotas function like double clicking SCS right or something. Thanks for the answers guys.

Hi guys, With the recent OB update the hornets radar flow has changed. RWS, then STT, then TWS. The question is, is the softkey the only way to switch to TWS? Is their a hotas function? Or do you just have to bind it? I feel like you having to remove your hands from the stick to switch to TWS isn’t necessarily right. But I’m probably wrong lol. Any help? thanks!
