  1. My DCS is installed in steam. Here is my boot sequence I - first launch Oculus app II- turn on Quest 2, connect USB Cable and activate oculus link in settings III- launch steam , DCS, then I choose OculusVR option since I have better results than SteamVR hope this helps
  2. Bump !!! This is Feb 2022, and still no pilots for the Mighty Tomcat, the Viper and the Hog... I'm not even close to leave the Hornet pit !!!
  3. Despite the cloud issue, and the VR memory leaks that plagues my Quest 2 sessions, DCS is still a dream come true for me. I know dev are working on this new engine, and VR is not an option in the foreseeable future. This is all I need to know.
  4. Thank you for your input, I believe all we can do ATM is waiting for a new graphic engine. It seems unlikely at this point ED is working on improving things for their old engine. Hope I'm wrong though.
  5. Does anyone knows if Reshade 5.0 is functionning with a Quest 2 and Oculus VR ? I prefer launching DCS under oculus VR rather than steam VR. I find the VR settings more straighrforward. But I could be convinced otherwise.
  6. thank you very much for this detailed instructions I will try this command asap
  7. I have exactly the same question. and was searching the forum a few days ago. Did not find any answer I also have a TM warthog hotas, and when binding the launch bar to a switch the up and down is somehow reversed which is annoying I have a similar bind for the arresting hook and this one is fine. The latest Open Beta changelog mentions a new keybind for the launch bar, I hope this will help, but since I'm running stable I can't tell yet.
  8. Totally agree, I'm not sure it has any added value if you're not an F18 jockey. Maybe if you're under VR, the writings on the case make less sense and you can program it the way you need to.
  9. I've been looking for a box full of switches with a few encoders as a generic panel for flying VR. I haven't found such a product yet. If, like me, you're into the F/A-18c, winwing has some nice dedicated control panels https://wwsimstore.com/
  10. This DeltaSim mod is a fantastic addition to the Warthog. You won't regret it
  11. From my experience, if your server hosting the game and your gamins PC are on the same LAN, they share the same public IP, and for some reason the Gaming PC cannot see the server in the MP interface. It's not a big problem since you can always connect to the server using its local IP address. If you really want to see (or check) the server in the MP list, you can always use a VPN on the gaming PC to use a fake public IP. This should work but at the price of performance because tunneling means encrypted traffic. And honestly there is no point going out of your LAN through a VPN in order to get back to your LAN and finally to your server.
  12. IIRC Massoud and the afghan resistance were backed by CIA who shipped them weapons. So definitely not an open conflict between US and Soviet Union, but a conflict nonetheless
  13. At this moment, which one gives the best FPS between low and flat shadows on terrain ? I think there was an issue recently with flat rendering. Was it resolved with the latest patch ?
  14. thank you very much for your help Taz, I can assure you the terrain is overblown while the cockpit is fine, I have no idea why, but I have had this issue for a while. This setting should be perfect
  15. Sorry to jump on this thread and ask some obvious questions for many of you. I exclusively play VR on a Quest 2, with the latest stable version. 2.7.9 if I recall correctly. I would of course benefit from a few more FPS, but my main issue is the terrain, which is way too bright while my cockpit is too dark. Changing the gamma slider doesn't resolve the issue since I must choose between terrain and cockpit readability. Could a shader mod prove beneficial for my issue ? Can you pinpoint me to the correct package to DL ? Thank you all for your help
  16. Sorry to resurrect this old issue, but I was wondering if any progress or improvements have been made on the clouds front ? The subject has not been raised for a while, and it seems a bit strange to me. Maybe I'm missing something At the moment the clouds rendering in VR is still messy for me, there is absolutely no contrast, and it's overall painful to look at. FWIW I have a Quest 2 and an RTX 3060TI. Can someone with a similar equipment achieve better results ?
  17. I have finished all your 3 campaign too ! That was nothing but pleasure, and now great memories. I'm looking forward to playing your next story.
  18. The default ingame profile is not bad for the warthog. it's defintely a good start to fine tune your own profile I would recommend to stick as close as possible to the real F18 hotas as described in Chuck's F18 guide (which is soon to be your bible) Got get it here, this guide is a fantastic tool, way better than the original user guide.. https://www.mudspike.com/chucks-guides-dcs-f-a-18c-hornet/ BTW I have a warthog too, and found no need to install the Target software , I might be wrong on this, but keep in mind it's not mandatory
  19. Aaaaaah ! No more Ford, Chevy, etc... A small one, but truly a game changer
  20. Was it the "water surface rendering fix" mentionned in the last changelog ? Something else related to shadows drawing ?
  21. If you like clickable cockpit and you are willing to learn. Pick whatever plane you like and get to know it inside out. No plane is too difficult, if you decide that's the bird you want to fly. IMO you don't need a trainer, but you might want to learn on a trainer first because it would replicate a real life learning curve. It's entirely up to you. There is no bad choice.
  22. definely worth trying !
  23. Wether we agree to fly this map or not is a different subject. And after reading last posts, not a particularly interesting one IMO. What's occuring to everyone atm : there is definitely something technically wrong in the Mariannas. Such a small map and terrain should not put high end hardware to its knee when way larger map like Syria or Persian Gulf are running fine.
  24. In VR seriously ? Over Guam it looks like a powerpoint slideshow for me. Instant nausea guaranted I haven't tried winding down the settings since all is fine in VR in Syria, Persian Gulf, Nevada and Caucasus. There is something wrong with the Marianas obviously.
  25. 3060TI here, it's unplayable in VR. Not even close. I won't complain because it's free, but this is the only map I cannot use
