Hi all, I just installed the Apache as new bird to learn after my F16-C. I'm using the Thrustmaster Cougar Hotas and was looking for a Foxy profile for the Cougar. I didn't find anything around on the internet and on dcs forums, maybe somebody can help me out? Thanks, Ross

Great!! Thank you, seems to resolve my problem Maybe you can also help me out with the 'out of window problem', once i receive this message in my screen, the fps dropped from 50 to 20.

I just received my new system and installed all software i need to fly DCS in VR. All my drivers, steam, steamvr, Nvidia drivers are the latest drivers. When i start up DCS everything seems normal but once in the cockpit steamVR is frozen and gives an error, Oh non, unexcepted error, please restart. I reinstalled steam, steamvr, windows reality, etc... but still the same problem. Sometimes, maybe 5% it will work and startup, but mostly it's frozen and i need to restart steamVR but without solution. My system, windows 11 home, i9 - 12900, 32GB of ram, 2TB SSD, Cougar flightstick and the HP reverb G2/V2. (all drivers and software are up to date) Maybe somebody had same issue.... maybe windows 11 is the problem, but i don't know...

Yes, correct, I send back the system, was bad, overheating and restarting the whole time. So I need to change my signature once I have a new one.

Just checking for new system, I saw two system who could be interesting for me. Can you help me out which system to buy and what reason?

Thank you

Thanks all works fine now

I know there's already alot of treaths starting with settings, configuration, etc, but with all explanations, nothing helps to run it smooth. Still trying to config the HP Reverb G2 but without any joy My systemconfig: i9-11900/ RTX3080/ 2TB SSD/ 32GB ram. (total new system) The big problem i have, when everything is set, the fps are good, but it's just like my eyes don't see everything clear in DCS. When i'm in the MRP and SteamVR and checking the wide of the eyes it's a clear view of distance on the linial. When i'm in DCS and checking the distance from the eyes with the slider i see the 2 distances (left and right) went trought eachother. (so i mean when i close one eye, it's clear, when i open only the other eye, also clear, when i'm opening both eyes it's not clear, i think it's a setting but i don't know which one.. Hopely somebody can help me out and so can fly DCS in higher detailed resolution than the Oculus Q2.

Yes same for me, all working fine except the microstick... Waxer if you fixed it, you let me know please, i'm still searching ....

Specs in my signature, using link (2.3GB/s) cable, 72hz..

Just flying a copple of days with the Oculus and in my opinion i have some tunnel view, so 'abit' left or right looking doesn't work well, it's all blur. I changed the setting of the glasses, 1-2-3 about the distance of the eyes, but nothing works fine. Also after a while of flying it's just like the Oculus is about the freeze, stuttering,.... also it felt hot, so if i take a break and start again it's over, so i think the cpu on the Oculus had big problems to convert the data from the computer. For me it's almost not possible to read the instruments without zoom-in. I'm sure that i haven't problems with the fps from my computer, he's strong enough but i think the Oculus isn't.... Any proposal for a better VR with no tunnel view or distance blur?

Hi all, new update First, i deleted the firmware on the stick, reinstall the Hotas Cougar control panel software (incl Foxy) update Foxy with 4.2 beta. Restart the computer, going to device manager, look for the cougar input and reinstall the drivers. Restart computer and everything gives respons. The only thing i have, after some hours of flying, i lost again contact on the flightstick, so no inputs again, pull out and in the usb from the cougar and it works again. Still need some testings, maybe everything stays normal.

Foxy software works fine, but i can't connect to my Cougar. Each time i start up the Hotas Cougar Control Panel it says, E2: Ensure that the device is connected and worked properly. The only strange thing for me is that windows recognized the stick and it's possible to see the movements, axis and buttoms..

I just received a total new system and tried to install the TM Cougar on my system. I followed all details who were post from Rudel but it gaves the warning, not device detected. In windows itself i see and i can fly in DCS, so axis works fine, but when i try to define the buttom with the helptool Foxy (with all updates) it still says no device detected.

Hi Rudel, very interesting and good explanation to configure the TM Cougar. I just restarted DCS after a 10 year brake . I followed all your steps but everytime it says, ERROR 1008: Device error. But when i'm looking to calibrate it in de windows software i have no problem and can do the job. I installed all latest files as you mentioned. Dunno anymore what to do, because i'm sure the total hotas works fine and could fly with the general axis without compiling the buttoms. Hopely you can help me out and so i can start the whole procedure for the F-16C learning curve I'm on windows 11, with a total new system. Thanks, Ross
