Depending on what trick you are refering to. I just tested DCS World 2.0 OpenAlpha (That's what it says on the desktop shortcut at least. I thought it was 2.1 beta or something, but I might misremember). Anyway, the pedal setup post I wrote earlier still works. Perhaps its different from DCS World 2.0 (not OpenAlpha)? Off-topic :D I haven't really used DCS for years, except a couple of tests with Oculus Rift DK2 some three years ago. I never really got far in it anyway (start, take off and land A-10C :) ), and while I bought Nevada last year I gave up on it because of draconian download system and limited SSD space. Got a shiny new rig, HTC Vive and an SSD with a slightly better space and so I figured I try this again. First flight was pretty fun, awesome random weather turned out to be a thunderstorm with lightning! Mission went fubar ofc, and I kind of even managed to land (forgot to set up wheel brakes lol).

Same here, got 4 in a row an hour ago.

Figures! Just got my DK2 (struggling to get it to work, it seems to have a mind of its own.. but for the moment it works). Haven't touched DCS in a long time, and I just had to try this.. but ofc... The actual mouse pointer seems to be in the middle of the pointer as seen with the left eye and the right eye through the Rift. The same 2D pointer I think (it just being one display). Hopeless to hit swithces with.

That's great! But don't thank me, thank Eagle Dynamics and their awesome controller setup! :) Btw (about my second post above), I'm still a bit fuzzy on the details of the inverted axis output mapping, perhaps just the display that's not updated. I think it would help a bit if the output indicator could be on the Y axis in the graph also (It't actually a while since I've been using this now, so maybe I'm wrong).

I was thinking the same thing :P I wasn't aware of that, I'll have to test that sometime. Soldering up three IR LEDs shouldn't be that much trouble (Making it look good, be comfortable and wireless is perhaps something else). Just realised, kinda old thread. But no matter.

Yup, I got them activated. I was about to post something like that too. So all is well :)

Thanks for the reply. Yes, thats the window/dialogue that showed up, first for CA, tried retry some times, then BS2, then P-51D and then UH-H1. Same with these (except P-51D, I just skipped it for now). They show up both when trying DCS multiplayer, and in normal/singleplayer DCS when trying to start a mission in one of them. I only tried the Huey and BS2 now, they start but I cannot get into the cockpit view in single-player. I assume it thinks it is un-activated, which is kind of true as I have not activated them, only installed via Module Manager. In multiplayer I get to the log-in screen after all the failed activations. I didn't log in, just exited afterwards. Btw I had them activated before, I have recently reinstalled my OS some four-five days ago.

I had DCS World with A-10C installed from my harddrive, then updated it and found I could no longer install the other titles (the installs were deemed incompatible). So I used the Module Manager and got them installed yesterday, no problem. However I didn't try them until just now. For once I thought I should check out some online servers to see what was available, and was greeted with inputting the serial numbers (even if they are visible in Module Manager, and installed). And activation fails (I turned off windows firewall just in case). I tried to activate CA, BS2 and the Huey (I also got P-51D), all fails. Can I assume there is some problem with an activation server or is there some other issue at hand? (Especially as they are visible in Module Manager with my serial numbers - why activate again?)

I was thinking, maybe the (BIOS) battery in your motherboard is bad? Causing it to loose settings. About your pause key I have really no idea. Faulty keyboard? Btw I'm with you on dreading those complete reinstalls of everything. I also turn off all automatic updating (except antivirus) when things work the way I want. (But, as it is a good 3 years and two motherboards since my last install, and I got me a new SSD - first one btw - I thought it was about time and so I did all that anyway.. I have some issues ofc but I hope I will get it fixed soon-ish.. DCS stutters unfortunately).

Does it also de-activates the modules? Or do you have to start the a10_protect.exe (depending on which module) in the module folders? Or click the delete button in module manager? Sorry, probably stupid questions but I'm not clear on these things. Also, I've -finally- got myself a SSD :) And about to reinstall the hole shebang. For now I went with deactivating via the _protect.exe's (Btw shift-click didn't seem to matter, but no biggie as there is a deactivation link in the window that pops up).

Great, thank you!

Just bought the UH-1H, and btw also recently got me a TM HOTAS Warthog stick :) I mapped my right throttle to collective (so other way around than you imply). But how do I map the other throttle to throttle? It doesn't seem to be an option atm?

I know what you mean, me too. Btw, xkcd had a joke about that :P

Hehe. Nah, the trailing aircraft doesn't count :P

Always puzzled me while waiting for DCS A-10C and those loading images.. TrackIR centered, display (TV) on/off button below is in the center. Also, keeping the stick right in front of it, in the center. Same with the brake pedal below on the floor (since I happen to have a wheel. Not that I use it in this sim, except ofc for the pedals, for rudder and brakes). But.. the awesome A-10C loading images are off center? I wasn't actually sure. But a quick cap into Paint.net proved it. One image is about 6 pixels displaced to the right, and the other, being a bit closer, is a bit more. Probably the least important thing to "complain" about with this awesome sim :P Still a bit puzzled by that though.
