  1. UPDATE After going through a several different scenarios I'm pretty sure its an issue caused by Necksafer. Even when I launch NeckSafer after DCS has started I still get the upside down and 180deg rotated image in VR. If I go into Necksafer and use the deactivate layer option and then run DCS its fine. I'm going to try and uninstall and re-install and see if this fixes the issue. I reported the issue on the Necksafer Discord and apparently offers are having the same issue.
  2. With the release of ver 1.2.4 of OpenXR Toolkit I decided to give Turbo Mode a try. After I activated Turbo Mode and restarted the image in the headset is upside down and rotated 180 deg. I haven't been able to access the Toolkit menu to disable Turbo Mode. If disable Toolkit using the checkbox provided in the app the image is orientated correctly when I return to DCS. I had previously tried unchecking DCS World in the Toolkit app list but that didn't do anything. 1 - I realize Turbo Mode is experimental but is there away to correct the image orientation in VR? Anyone else have this happen? 2 - Is there away to clear/reset the Toolkit settings for DCS World so that I can access it again? Thanks for your help!
  3. First time user looking for some help to resolve an issue. I've installed Beta5a, DCS OpenBeta Standalone, HP Reverb G2. I was able to setup manual rotation buttons but when I'm in DCS and I engage NS the view rotates but there is a wide vertical black stripe in the middle of the view. I also tried the autorotation smooth and same issue - large black vertical stripe. As per install instructions I verified that NS is included in the XR API Layer list. Any ideas on how to go about fixing the issue? Thanks
  4. No worries. I'm just trying to understand JTAC and this question came up when I started reading some of the guides. The campaign may be old but its a lot of fun! Thank you!
  5. Just tried mission 4 last night and had a question regarding the 9 line info passed from Axeman. Here is one example of a 9 line provided by Axeman: Offset 007 900 1995 infantry KN 695 589 no mark 275 south egress west Why is line 1 Initial Point missing? The offset 007, and distance 900 are supposed to relative to the IP? I don't have a lot of experience with JTAC so I'm probably missing something? In any case great campaign so far, the most fun I've had in DCS for a long time.
  6. Gave this a go last night. Very well done! I thought the production was top-notch. It would appear to me that during the startup sequence there is no check in the background to confirm if the checklist item is correctly set. Is this correct? I look forward to the release of the full mission set. Is there an ETA on that?
  7. I have a few questions re the kneeboard. 1 - LOG Page - No matter what I try I can not get the LOG page to display I've tried "Show Log" and "Log Page". I hear a beep but the view never changes to the LOG page? 2 - What is the LOG page supposed to display? I've read the manual on the Kneeboard and there is no description of the function of the LOG page. 3 - I noticed at the bottom left hand corner sometimes the word PIN is displayed along with a left and right arrow. Since I fly in VR it takes some messing around with the mouse to get this to appear. The left/right switch page but what is PIN supposed to do? Thanks in advance for your help!
  8. Anyone using OVR Toolkit? I heard that there were issues with DCS - specifically window focus, mouse function. I imagine its also a hit on the FPS?
  9. I've been looking for, but haven't been able to find, a list of all the ordnance that the A10C II can carry. I'd like to have something that summarized the options and included range, target types, guidance mode, etc. Thanks
  10. I'm hoping someone can help with sorting out this issue. I have a shortcut on my desktop to DCS OpenBeta. As soon as I launch WMR the DCS shortcut disappears!! What is odd is the DCS shortcut for the release version of DCS does not disappear. The only difference is that I have VR enabled for Open Beta in the DCS settings. Any ideas??? Thanks EDIT - I found a workaround I pinned the DCS OpenBeta shortcut to my taskbar and it does not disappear when I open WMR. Still be curious if others have had this issue?
  11. I have some Bonus Points which expire June 1/2020. How do I know what products I can apply them to? Thanks
  12. I'm new to the P51. Just tried a "Create Fast Mission" and I was surprised to see the Red Force populated with Migs and SAMs! This seems to be the case even on the Normandy map. I guess this isn't news to the veteran users. Is there something I'm missing, I used this option with the A10C it would have been nice to have it available for the P51.
  13. Just got VAICOM installed. The issue I'm having is that all of the commands are repeated even though I only voice the command a single time. So if I request landing VAICOM sends the request landing command twice. Here is a bit of the log from my recent flight. Any ideas?? Thanks! 2:37:42 PM - Listening suspended 2:37:42 PM - Joystick : 'Transmit TX1 release' 2:37:41 PM - TX1 | SEL/AUTO: [ ],[ ],[ ] [ ] [ ] 2:37:41 PM - TX1 | SEL/AUTO: [ ATC ],[ ],[ ] Request Landing [ ] [ ] 2:37:41 PM - Recognized : 'ATC request landing' (contains 'atc') 2:37:41 PM - Recognized : 'ATC request landing' (contains 'request landing') 2:37:38 PM - Listening resumed 2:37:38 PM - Joystick : 'Transmit TX1 press' 2:35:11 PM - Listening suspended 2:35:11 PM - Joystick : 'Transmit TX1 release' 2:35:09 PM - TX1 | SEL/AUTO: [ ATC ],[ ],[ ] Inbound [ ] [ ] 2:35:09 PM - TX1 | SEL/AUTO: [ ATC ],[ ],[ ] Inbound [ ] [ ] 2:35:09 PM - Recognized : 'ATC inbound' (contains 'inbound') 2:35:09 PM - Recognized : 'ATC inbound' (contains 'atc')
