Now that VR is getting pretty useable for me through Virtual Desktop, I'm loving it. BUT, head movement is really limited to 90 degrees up or down, left or right via my neck. Even if I stretch out of the seat, seeing behind me is pretty rough. Is there an alternative to vrnecksafer? It appears to be abandoned.

Fixed it by lowering interpupillary distance setting.

Yeah, I'm in VD with a Quest 3. I can't seem to find the screenshots when hitting the right controller (Meta button and trigger at same time). I THINK that VD has a key combination for a screen shot, let me look a bit later...

Flatscreen is fast, high res, with good frame rates. I run VR using internet connection sharing and virtual desktop with my headset. If I'm single player, it appears to run smoothly on my system although by default I seem WAY too close and the HUD image is larger than the physical HUD. Anyway, if I jump into multiplayer, the screens are so large that after finding a server and connecting, the Join A Coalition screen left half occupies the right side of my screen. I can't see the entire screen. At one time this was running just fine. I'm not sure what's changed. Any ideas?

At this point I'm fairly happy with VD (I just need to create a small passthrough window to see my keyboard) and probably will just keep Meta Link as a backup option, once it is fixed.

Yeah, mine is screwed up too and I switched to VD. Works great. You CAN use a second router connected to the PC your running the game on. My home router is downstairs and my gaming PC is upstairs, about 75feet of cable would be needed to snake it around the house. Screw that. You DON'T have to physically connect the two routers though. It's called Internet Connection Sharing. I bought my router and followed these directions. Works just fine: https://github.com/Crayphish/vrdocs/wiki/Internet-Connection-Sharing .

Did you ever get this fixed. Fed up with TrackIR 5, I JUST bought the Tobii 5 per a recommendation...

No but close, came in September and there was a correction for the 14900 up an updated BIOS soon after. Dell had me run some series of tests (don't recall the program name) and based on the results they figured it was ok. They gave me an extended service plan through 2026 just in case. Are you thinking this is my crash issue (it's only DCS by the way) or just noted my spec in the sig?

I've spent about 3 hours trying to find the problems with my system, which was running just fine. SRS is installed but I haven't even configured it yet. I'm only single player, no multiplayer. At this point I'm ready to scrap everything and just start over and live with the slow download given the terrains I have. Anyhow, here's the log file: dcs.log

After running a number of recommended Analyzer tweaks and some settings adjustments for 2D, I spent yesterday playing for several hours without ONCE thinking about issues. I've been struggling for about a year since first discovering DCS and getting HW and SW set up properly. A brief look in VR was promising too. Hope it lasts for a while!

Is this just AMD? My Intel system rocks with the update, seems faster and smoother, frankly. I was overjoyed after several hours play in 2D (haven't yet jumped into VR). Alienware fans appeared to run silently the whole time. But will monitor later today.

Hey, I'm somewhat new to DCS (F-16, although I have the F-14 with no seat time yet). Spent the year building my seat/pit, decent dedicated PC, fly both 2D and VR. Can take off and land effectively, started mastering gun and Aim9s with and without radar lock. System is fairly stable now using VD for VR. Have run through cold start ups although to get moving I use auto start and auto off. Haven't yet logged into a multiplayer server yet, much less installed anything for voice. If you have room for an F-16 newb, I'll give it a go. I'm 67 and retired, so my time is MY time! Specs for system in signature. Happy flying.

I couldn't get the Link to work after a week, and said screw it. Got the dedicated router, spent a day setting it up with troubleshooting, and haven't looked back. Still, I'd like to have Link working just in case the Virtual Desktop alternative breaks some day.

Someone pointed me to the analyzer tool in the DCS discord. Ran it, got some advice, biggest improvement found after disabling core parking. Just tested it on 2D (good experience) and will try VR in a couple of hours.

Agree. I'd like to record the mission start to finish with me landing/parking.

I really like the concept improvement from Quick Mission. But I think giving a uniform approach to missions equally across the modules would have been nice. As indicated above, bomber intercept on scramble makes perfect sense for the F-15C. Let the USER decide the mission. Why write code to limit this? Still, I like using the QAG to create missions when learning a new airframe, so it will get a LOT of use from me...

I have had DLSS "OFF" in the settings for both 2D and VR. Is this both selecting it in the game AND making changes somewhere outside the game (perhaps in the NVidia app)?

This JUST started for me yesterday. I made a lot of options changes so I need to go back and figure out what might be causing this.

I'm starting to think Pimax but so far my one day VD setup with a gaming router is pretty solid...

I just found that pressing the right controller button and the trigger at the same time does this. My Nvidia overlay doesn't work in VR so I'm trying to get that screenshot plus takes some videos. I feel like I'm starting over with everything since getting VR to work well...

Sorry, I tried printscreen in VR but it doesn't appear to be working. Any ideas?

VD is running smoothly on default and no crashes so far. I'm impressed. I have a strange "shimmering" or quick flicker when viewing outside the cockpit at 90 or 270 degrees but forward is stable. I need to look up tweaks for the headset, Virtual Desktop, my nVidia card, the PC hardware and the actual settings inside DCS itself. Going to be a LONG process...

Yeah, thanks for all this! I've started DCS with the F-16 since it was a Cold War participant, and now that a map for that period is available I really want to hone my skills. Combing through the two available manuals and even watching videos can be tedious--I just want scenarios for getting a handle on my HOTAS configuration, radar modes and how to shoot LR and SR missiles without getting my own butt blown out of the sky. I'll move on to better fuel management, air to air refueling and ground and pound later...

My house router and gaming PC are on different floors. Can't connect up that way. But what I have is working, just looking to tweak the different components. I'll check some videos out and see if I can find a gem here and there to try...

It took a couple of tries, but I finally got my new gaming router hooked up to my gaming PC and configured as an Access Point, then enabled ICS in Windows 11. Streamer was running on the desktop and VD in the Quest 3 headset. From the headset I connected to the 6GHz channel. My gaming PC connects to home wifi on 5GHz through the home router downstairs. Note Virtual Desktop doesn't "see" or connect to the PC (I don't think it's supposed to anyhow since we're on different wifi channels). Ran the F-16 from a runway in Afghanistan, just to see how it all looks. Cockpit looked fine although I was a bit close to the instrument panel, but the world seemed low res. I can tweak the ingame settings. I had a few pauses here and there, which I thought odd but there it is. I've never configured the PC hardware, Windows, the nVidia card settings, Virtual Desktop or the Quest 3 hardware settings. Are there links you can recommend for tweaking things? The PC is dedicated to the DCS World environment. Specs are in my signature. Thanks!
