  1. Yeah, it´s those directions that I want. They are implemented in russian in the hip, but my russian is kinda rusty...
  2. Thanks, but I was aware of that :) And I found that when looking down in the rift, that message can be a bit hard to see because it´s on top right corner. Maybe I´m just a crappy pilot, but I still find it very hard without the indicator or any other help to easily do this. Mi8 much harder than Huey due to "largeness".
  3. I might try that a couple of times maybe. I did manage to hook some cargo without the indicator, but it was much harder (especially in the mi8 ), I really need some kind of aid, maybe that voice function in the Mi8 would be enough, but it´s still only available in russian so still waiting for that. With the Mi8 it´s harder than the UH-1 in my opinion because your point of view is so far ahead of the cargo.
  4. I tried looking out the window a couple of times, feels natural in a way but in a large airframe it´s pretty much impossible to lean so far. And trying to look all the way down and properly control the heli, I find that very hard and disorienting sometimes, but fun in way.Try landing the gazelle for instance while only looking at the right skid.
  5. Do you mean that you don´t really need the indicator? I noticed that I find it hard to see if the cargo is right underneath the heli. Maybe more so with the Mi8. Can you do effective sling loading without the indicator?
  6. I asked this already on the Belsimtek forum but figured I might get more response here. Hi there, In VR (rift), I can't see the sling loading indicator and the voice assist feature for the Mi8 is still only in Russian. Is the indicator working for anybody else in VR? Are those russian voices still being translated to US speech? I'm pretty sure sling loading is really cool and challenging in VR, hope to see it working someday! Thanks. cheers

  8. Small issue with beta version and F-5E Did some flying with it and seems to work just fine. Because of the auto flap/slat functions of the F-5 I think it might be a usefull option to be able to set the flap volume for the F-5 separately from the other planes, since it goes up and down a lot. The real issue I found when after landing, stopping and even switching everything in the plane off, there was still some effects going on, like slow taxi bumbs. Very slow and soft but still very noticable. It happened both times after I landed the plane, one time after a training mission and one time after a self made mission from the mission editor. Also still noted that with unlimited ammo (training missions) there is no gun effect. I remember this was an issue from ED´s side and could not be addressed by simshaker software. Is this still the case? cheers, Geert
  9. No pilot body? Is the pilot body not here yet? There's a "show pilot body" option in the controls options, but that doesn't seem to work. Using rift CV1. Great stuff so far!
  10. I set up a new system and left DCS 2.0 untouched on a SSD. Even in the new system I got the error I mentioned. I also did a new install and that works just fine. Still not clear what caused it, but not an issue anymore, but possibly an issue for other folks.
  11. Interested in the pro version I´m interested in a pro version. Does it has to be US? I´m from EU, does that matter for these licences? I want an english version anyway.
  12. Hi there :) Yeah, already tried that, but obviously useless, says my PC isn't ready for rift, but I pointed that out in my first post. Building a new PC anyway, lets see what happens then.
  13. Interesting...just a few PC reboots? I almost always leave it in sleep mode. Could check it out.
  14. No, must have missed that. Were / how / what do I do that?
  15. I did, doens't work. My system can't properly handle VR in DCS anyway, better just wait untill I get at least a new gpu.
  16. Tried that too. No luck. Also removed DCS.exe from nvidia profile. Still nothing. No mods. Also tried repair. Am I really the only one having this error? Open beta doens't even start anymore even with rift autodetect disabled.
  17. Actually, it´s a white LED, don´t know if its supposed to light up in green. But like I said, the headset itself does work with all the other apps and stuff and it would be kinda strange to have an app dependent HDMI problem.
  18. Hi, 16 Gb of RAM installed, possibly the only item that´s not an issue! I did wait, but probably like 5-10 min. or so. Would it be possible that I have to wait longer than that? DCS is already active on the monitor within a few seconds. All apps that I installed work, although some work better than others, just some free movies and demo´s. Only games are Lucky´s tale and EVE and they actually seem to work nicely. thanks
  19. Hi all, Got my CV1 yesterday and I´m trying to get it to work with DCS 2.0 but no luck yet. I enabled the "allow 3d parties option" in oculus home and I don´t know if I have to do anything else. Checked the "auto detect oculus rift" option in DCS options menu. When I start DCS, oculus home also starts (if it wasn´t on already) and in the rift I get a message saying something like " Sorry, DCS.exe is taking a while to load. If the problem persists check the app on your computer" something like that. DCS starts on the monitor (in very small unusable format/resolution, like preview window) and I can hear sound from DCS on the rift with no problems. My setup is nowhere what is required (2xgtx 660 ti (SLI disabled), FX6300 and no working USB 3.0 for the sensor) but still, lots off apps work and I don´t understand why it´s not properly starting up. Anybody got a clue? thanks, Geert
  20. Still not working Tested landing gear with the L-39 (in DCS 2.0) and still doesn't work. Any ideas?
  21. Thanks. I don´t really know what I was doing in the registry, but I found some entries (2 or 3) somewhere which refered to an installation that I had deleted, so I deleted those entries. Those same entries (dcs.exe and updater) for the new path were I had copy-pasted that installation were already there. Should that suffice? Will do some testing later.
  22. Error messages Hi Andre/Olaf, I´m still having some problems with simshaker, some effects (landing gear for instance in L-39 and some other planes) just don´t work. Once in a while I get a bunch of successive error messages. That also happened just now and I took some screenshots of the messages, see attachements. Happens with both the beta shimshaker and normal simshaker. Maybe I should mention that I have the old stable DCS, beta 1.5 and 2.0 installed. I once moved the 2.0 version by copy-paste to another SSD. Hope you can help me with this one. Thanks. Geert
  23. Support for Gazelle in beta simshaker Thanks a lot Olaf for the incredibly quick addition of support for the Gazelle!! It´s been there for like 2 days now and surprised to see no mention of that in this thread! (or maybe I missed it). Also great to see added effect for payload/weapons release for the Mi8! (haven´t tested yet...) Was waiting quite some time for that one. Although I haven´t tried it out/"tested" it extensively, it feels very good (Gazelle effects). One small bug I found was that when the Battery switch AND the generator switch are both disabled, effects immediately stop but come back again when switched on, regardless of rotor rpm. Another bug which has been there for a long time now, but apparently nobody has mentioned, is with the slider nr.11 in the helicopter tab (Payload release). When the slider is moved, the number next to it doesn´t change. It only changes when after you have moved the slider you slide another slider. It also doesn´t seem to save that setting which is a bit more anoying. Cheers!
