  1. He means with the Reverb. It’s different with a CV1
  2. Ok I get what your saying about the higher pd settings. But I gather your pixel density settings in DCs options override the native ideal setting. So what is the native resolution of the reverb and what pixel density do you set on the reverb in DCs and find works best?
  3. Yes please along with the other modules
  4. Thanks for this information, I’ve had my eye on the reverb but didn’t want to make a £600 investment on something that wouldn’t run very well. But it sounds like a good bit of kit. The CV1 has been good for a start in VR but it is starting to piss me off a little now. How are the colours on the reverb? I find colours just off with the Oculus particularly Normandy, and does it have a software similar to Oculus or do you run it through steam VR?
  5. I’m not sure if my next move will be to go for a better graphics card. Going by your impressions it could be worth it. It gets disappointing as it wasn’t long ago that I built a new rig with VR in mind. And we never really got confirmation if the VR improvements were implemented into the game or not. I did notice an improvement a while back, but it certainly hasn’t improved since. Can we expect this to be looked at again? Will we see any further improvements? Or is it a case of spending more ££££ on hardware?
  6. You won’t be disappointed

    VR pilot body

    Please can we have one, I think we had one when the F-18 released.
  8. I have to pay for my subscription to the magazine. So I can’t really send you a link but I can screenshot some pictures and post them on the forums when I’m home later Mike. I think the only rating that was not excellent was for documentation which we all know is a WIP so it could have been even higher. That’s probably the highest rated sim that I can think of.
  9. Just read your review in latest edition of PC pilot magazine. 97% rating. And fully deserved. Congratulations HB. You should be very proud.
  10. The only way I can describe it is that when you put on the headset you no longer are sitting in front of a monitor you are sitting inside an aeroplane. It’s one of those things where people can be headstrong against it until they have tried it. My brother recently tried my rift, he is a dcs user and has flown aircraft. He was without exaggerating amazed. In fact he was not expecting the influence it could have on tricking the mind and was pessimistic about vr. He was particularly impressed when looking down from the side of the cockpit and the depth of perception and the feeling that you were indeed 20,000 ft in the air and those were his exact words. ,”you no longer feel you are in front of a monitor you feel like you are inside a cockpit”. Over time I admit you kind of get used to it and that initial amazement wears off. And I now long for some kind of motion influence, but what is telling is there is no way I could go back to a 2d monitor. And I would say virtually all people that have gone to VR say the same thing. If you decide to do it you may experience some sickness. I did. Over a short period of time I overcome this and no longer experience the problem. Powerful pc giving good FPS is a necessity though. This is my opinion of course and if people are still playing on monitors and still enjoying it with home build cockpits fair play to them. We all enjoy are own thing. If you’re not sure about splashing out on that kind of money see if there’s a way to experience VR in a flight simulator first to see if it’s your thing.
  11. I’m glad you’re still visiting the forums.
  12. Yes I don’t get the Mirage situation, I was completely happy with the VR pilot and thought it looked great didn’t see the need to re-do it. But fair enough if that’s what they want to do but why not keep the old one until the new one is ready.
  13. I do hope so. I thought it was becoming the standard for all modules to have it included but developers seem to be putting it on the backburner. The hornet looks and runs fantastic with it. But I’m surprised nothing has been mentioned about the recent Fw190 a8 not having it. It surely has to be a must for the F16 and VR.
  14. looks like you had a great day.
  15. When you say it is there, you can activate it with Right shift+P?
  16. Much better performance wise since the last few patches.
  17. It really needs a pilot body for VR hope that gets added soon. All modules would benefit from this with VR in my opinion
  18. Hope they get the engine note of the TF-30s right. I Look forward to it.
  19. Ask WindyTX about it. A former F3 pilot. I asked him about it and it was a more capable airplane than people ever gave it credit for. I believe the radar was particularly good. I’m sure he would defend it from some of the bashing it receives. That being said I would prefer the interdiction variant. I just love it.
  20. Can you make this available?
  21. Just the AI models would be a great addition to the Normandy map. I would not be interested in them being flyable personally but the models look very good.
  22. Fantastic skins.
  23. I still enjoy the Gazelle. It feels extremely light to control maybe too much and slightly unnatural, but then I’ve never actually flown a helicopter so what’s to say this isn’t actually what a gazelle is like. I would have thought by now they may have looked at the pilots and particularly the face renders which I think look horrible particularly when you compare it to the detailed work from belsimtek.
  24. Hi what map are you experiencing this on?
