Hi everyone,
I am considering getting into DCS and I have a few questions I am hoping someone can help answer.
1) Does DCS support rendering for stereoscopic displays such as the Oculus Rift, which includes head tracking, and if not is there an API for integrating such hardware?
2) Can I build my own custom maps for use in single player mode, for example using GIS elevation and orthoimagery data downloaded from the USGS?
3) Does DCS support HOTAS joysticks just as the Cougar which has force feedback, as well as the throttle controller that comes with it?

Basically I was looking into developing my own combat flight sim based on the Unity Flight Simulation Engine ( http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/171604-UnityFS-Flight-Simulation-toolkit ) but DCS looks pretty amazing and has almost all of the features I would need to develop. UnityFS supports the Oculus Rift and I can build anything I want, but if DCS can fulfill my requirements above, than I am sold.
Thanks a lot!
