Nice photos Matbog. The 2000 cockpit is quite cosy by the looks of it, almost as cosy as an A4. And a Mirage F1 in the corner of the hanger as well so I am sure someone is probably going to touch base with you soon :)

Hi Andre, PM sent. Nothing in Logtoscren for 1.5 but working and recording data on test vibes and also in 2.0 Uninstalled 1.5 completely and reinstalled, still no vibes from any aircraft in 1.5 My DCS installs are as follows: 2.0 D:\DCS World 2 OpenAlpha 1.5 D:\DCS World Comparing this to buttkickers is a no brainer. What a huge difference and doesn't matter how low the volumne. Thanks Craig

Hi Andre, Seat has arrived thank you. Works well with DCS 2.0 but not 1.5 Registry is correct for both versions. Am I missing something? Thanks.

A few more pieces cut, picking up some pace now. Just go give some reference to the size, the base above is 1.8m long and 1.2m wide. The sides to the ejection seat will need a bit of sanding.

It's hard not to be disappointed with Oculus with regards to the ordering system. They should have honored all the preorders first before selling in stores. Am happy for you though Shogun.

Cheers Kayos.

The base is built, watch this space :)

I've ordered a 1080 from my supplier but I have a question regarding other hardware. 1. Does the CPU model matter for performance in the Rift i.e. is it worth upgrading from 4690K to 6600K? 2. Is it worth moving from DDR3 memory to a computer with DDR4?

Thanks Andre, got your PM and hadn't received that email (spam filter issues most probably - can't trust those pesky Russian email servers :) Appreciate the really great service and cannot wait after reading all the feedback here.

How do you track your order?

A-4K (let me know if you want photos, details etc) A-6E Jaguar Tornado B-1B (the bone would be awesome

Woohoo - only 1.2 million units to go until mine is shipped :)

What was your order number Hannibal? I've been reading that the new expected date was pushed way out and then shipping earlier to make people feel loved. I ordered on 20th Jan and expected shipping is July 20th - 28th. I've contemplated ordering a VIVE as well but am holding off.

Here's the thing guys, you will buy it or you won't. I have the C101 and the hawk but don't fly them but I bought them to support the developers because the bigger picture here is that with DCS we have an amazing environment and lots of great things happening this year. Belsimtek have release a lot of great modules so this I am sure will be great as well. Stay positive, it is what it is.

I've just ordered one as well Andre. Thanks

Hey Hannibal, how are you powering your butt kicker? i.e. are you using the standard buttkicker amp or something else? What speaker system are you running? And how are you finding the jetseat? Does the simshaker software work okay with DCS? I wasn't sure it was supported. - Correction, I was thinking simvibe. I've got a 700Watt amp running 2 x butt kicker Mini LFE's (tapped off the centre/sub analogue)but I'd rather have the 5.1 surround run from the optical digital out.

Version 3.0 Version 3.0 is a modification of the last all aluminium 2.0 but this one will have: 1. More accurate seat with extra detail 3. Redesigned center console and TV/Monitor bracket. 4. Lots of access panels (with captured nuts) 5. All the cables will be mounted internally and there is to be a cable break out panel for quick release / hookup 6. 2 x Mini LFE's for enhanced vibration 7. Base is solid aluminium and smaller for portability Have 2 months until my Rift arrives... so game on

So the big question SkateZ - Do you think there will be enough of a boast in performance using a 1080 over a 970 or 980ti for the occulus just with the hardware improvements they are making? I know it's all guesswork at the moment but would appreciate your thoughts given your knowledge and expertise. Cheers

Here is the real one sitting down at the local muesuem. A bit run down now though sadly, as they have left it outside weathering under our harsh NZ sun.

It's broken, you need to send it to NZ for testing :)

Exactly, the only way to look at it.

Rift order updated - will arrive late July some 6 months after ordering. Good thing I suppose is that hopefully some of the performance issues are ironed out in that time :)

This is my YAK52, taking a friends dad up for a fly around my home town recently... [ame= ] [/ame]

I have the best wife, this sits in my dining area! And I am going to build a 2nd seat to match (with some refinements). With the rift on order, it will be 140cm x 100cm instead of the massive thing it is now. Plus having two will make for some great nights dog fighting and doing traps in the F-14 :)

Cheers Peter, always very helpful :) So does anyone here have DCS working with a motion platform? And is a motion platfrom worth it over the rift. I fly in the real world also (Yak52) but $15000 - $23000 buys a lot of flying so I have to make sure it's worth it to get a platform.
