  1. Sir, 

    Read a few of your posts and comments....awesome to have a real F1 pilot flying dcs....may I ask where you flew and any details you are able to give? I was a cop not a pilot and now like be dcs In my retirement!  Ma y thanks for your service and contribution

  2. Thanks pal! That worked- it had been working fine before so I guess windows was being "helpful" and changed some of the usb port settings and caused an interference Many thanks.....one problem solved,
  3. I may very sadly be done with dcs.i live it but over the last couple of weeks I have spent around 30 hrs fixing problems and no hours flying, I'm a flightsim fan not a fixing problems fan, it's just too unreliable..... Fixed the vr problem with VD, now I have another new issue of controls locking /freezing while the game continues to run..... sometimes for a few seconds sometimes longer , unplayable again
  4. I should add that the game continues running fine, no loss of frame rate just the control inputs which are locked / frozen
  5. Sorry to revive this one- I have the same issue back again, Controls locking / freezing, not only related to using trim but randomly.. Mb339 and F1 modules are affected, strangely the harrier is fine which is weird. During a freeze, no Input works, even pressing esc to bring up the menu doesn't work. Aircraft are fine on the ground and taxiing- as soon as the speed rises on the takeoff roll,the problem starts... Starting in the air, produces the problem immediately. Tried wiping all control assignments and remapping, updating everyone, nothing works! Any ideas? Radeon anti lag is still off so I don't think that was the problem originally Regards Les
  6. On my own setup, I'm actually really enjoying the virtual desktop, it works really well, better than oculus- the problem I have our air cadet Sims is that we don't have good enough WiFi and some places we take the Sims on outreach, have nothing we had a stand at RIAT last year, attached picture of a red arrow pilot flying out SIM in DCS. So we need a cable link or we can't run
  7. I'll try that thanks, my dcs is beta not steam, don't think I can use steam ve to run it? Both oculus processes set to manual in service manager.....still won't start
  8. For me and out air cadets Sims, this is just getting worse .. I can't now update dcs even if there is an update fix, oculus is not running, headset not plugged in, I have stopped all the oculus processes I can see In taskmanager and dcs still won't start.....it also won't update as the last time it was used was in offline mode, so I'm really stuck....any ideas on getting dcs to run in basic desktop mode?
  9. More problems!! So vdxr works good for me ( WiFi permitting) but I now can't run DCS unless I'm using the vr headset! I do like to run it on the monitor for mission editing etc .. I have the same issue of not loading!! I have uninstalled oculus, any ideas? Thanks again... Les
  10. The vdxr route seems really good so far, the only thing being that it's a wireless link and needs a wired internet connection. My main problem will be at the air cadets unit I volunteer at: we have 4 laptops with quest 2 headsets and full seats, hotas and pedals- but we don't have a good WiFi or internet connection so use a wire from the headset to laptop. and often take them to events where there is no internet- we use dcs, ED have been great- they gave us some free modules to get the cadets going, but we may be sunk , it was a big investment for a small sqn ( charity and volunteer staff) I have kept them all off while this has been going on
  11. So......I downloaded vd and ran it yesterday evening, works ok- much more clunky than oculus and lots of strange blurring and stuttering during the various loading segments but once in the game engine it seems quite good, it looks like it will mean changing a load of settings as I have old issues of disappearing aircraft at some distances and the sea going in the wrong direction with the ships at some aspects. As discussed I did have to plug an ethernet cable into the router, and there is a lot running in the background, steam ve, vd itself.....I have 64gb ram and seems ok. A similar interface that can use the wired connection would be preferable.... Les
  12. I always preferred the wired link for my quest2- but that hasn't worked for months......very similar to this update, one day it stopped working, three dots appear and it never connects, so I was forced to use air link which is a pain... All these reasons are why personally I wouldn't buy another meta headset...just too much trouble, I go for another brand with a wired connection that just works
  13. Agree it's not Ed's fault and that a fix may be difficult- communication is key , if we knew they were working to fix it and that at some point it would be ok again, then most people would accept that.... As it is I'm kind of left looking for other solutions, ideally to keep using the quest2 somehow ........
  14. Unfortunately v63 is already released- it's now the current version, so basically everyone who doesn't have that very technical work around to prevent the update will find dcs doesn't work........given that I setup my whole pc and station, including choosing the quest2 , to play dcs, I'm really very annoyed. Not good enough to just rule out all oculus users....cash back for all the modules I've bought???!!
