THANKS ED for fixing the F10 Map for Rift users!!!! THANKS!!!!!

Can't wait!! Count me in :D

Euch alles Gute! Wir haben seit einigen Wochen nun auch eine Logistics Squadron ( Mi-8 ) in der 132nd, und es ist ein riesenspass. Wir üben CSAR etc, ist echt super. Vielleicht sehen wir uns beim gemeinsamen Training eines Tages :)

very strange, I fly the A10-C and want to disable the tooltips. That works for singleplayer, but when I go on our multiplayer server the tooltips are there regardless my settings. Is it simply overriding local settings and using whatever settings the mission creator/server admin is using ? (like model enlargement which is also overruled by server settings afaik?)

Im apparently not very knowledgeable when it comes to technical things, but from what I see the rift in DCS in its current form does not care so much about fps. In preparation to my rift purchase, I upgrade my rig, brand new CPU, super fast memory, quality mobo for overclocking and a GTX1080. At my current settings, when I start a more or less 'empty' mission, I get betwen 100 and 140 fps, depending on the area at 4k resolution in 2D. so the hardware should be ok In the oculus rift during some 3rd party campaign missions, or our combat operations in mutliplayer with tons of ground units etc, my fps sometimes dips at the 22 fps range when shit hits the fan in the A10. according to the in game FPS counter that is. but guess what, I dont notice it. At all. I dont know how they do it, ATW, ASW, whatever. My careful conclusion would be: DCS is in the rift kicks ass, its super awesome and probably a crazy hardware upgrade is totally not needed. I can play the game at low FPS just fine

Hi alle! Bin seit ein paar Wochen auch ein stolzer Besitzer der Rift. Meine Muster sind die A-10C und Mi-8. Mittlerweile fliege ich nicht mehr in 2D und das trotz großer Skepsis was gerade die A-10C betrifft. Mit viel Übungen und Geduld beim konfigurieren von z.B Voice attack o.ä geht's aber super!

wait, in your input folder under saved games should still be the files for the 'old' axis IDs. simply reload each axis from the 'old' file this should only take 5 minutes.

Klasse! Euch das Allerbeste und schöne Grüße von der 132nd! Vielleicht sieht man sich ja mal bei einem gemeinsamen Training :)

yeah I have the same

Mirage keeps on rocking!

Look at the SPAWN sample mission then it will become clear. Iirc it means it will spawn a new unit every 150 seconds with a 0.5 (50%) variation of the time randomized every spawn. Edit sorry now I see. I think it's maybe a mistake in the code it should read spawnscheduled?

so true. The head tracking alone in the rift is just too amazing, you cant even remotely compare it with TrackIR. oh and Tic-Tac, when I first flew the A10 in the rift, I thought this would never work. There is just too many buttons and switches that you can't see with that damn goggle on. however, there are workarounds! Have a look at VoiceAttack its simply amazing. Also, come up with handy keybinds for your HOTAS. For example, ever tried changing the Altimeter setting while in close formation? A pain! Real pilot would simply leave the hand on the stick and turn the know without looking. Well, you can use the paddle switch as modifier and use coolie up/down for altimeter settings. or the numpad keys (that you can find blindly) for preset up/down. You can come up with any workarounds and bindings that work for you, be creative :) Then, and imo, only then, a full systems simulater like the hog is viable in the rift

Hi Tic-Tac I am in the exactly same boat. I used this wonderful CDU ipad app and it was just too convenient. However, I always felt bad, because this was a luxus that real A10C pilots dont have. Since getting the rift, I have to force myself to use the UFC and CDU repeater of the right MFD obviously. Its strange at first, but youre getting used to it, and thats how real pilots do it as well so even better. :)

Hi Manitu03, ich weiß dass ist nicht die Antwort die Du suchst, aber etwas einfacher als eine Tastenbelegung zu erstellen, um einen neuen Hardwareschlüssel zu generieren und dann die luas umzubennen is einfach die profile einzulesen (import profile oder so denk ich wars). auch nervig, da man es für jedes gerät machen muss, aber immer noch besser als mit den Dateien zu hantieren. Dauert pro Aircraft ca 1 minute also nicht so schlimm

works nicely for me

DCS Friday, best Friday!

I totally agree. As a very recent Rift owner, I also felt the need to set up voice attack and man, is it worth it! Take a while to configure, but it just works! Invest the 10 minutes and train your windows speech engine. Now I need to find a good way to input coordinates into my CDU, maybe it could work via dictating to voice attack

map would actually be awesome!

this mod is a life saver THANKS!!

seriously, try the Mi-8 in the rift. Then switch to the middle (flight engineer) position while flying, AMAZING.. the view.. wow. One thing with the Huey, while the cockpit dimensions feel just about perfect, the default textures seem to be low res? Even when I zoom in, I have a very hard time reading the labels. Anyone have a link to a high-res huey cockpit , if there is one?

ok I also got a rift now. I need that damn numpad 5 key in order to input coordinates. No matter what I bind it to, I cant override the center view on the rift. That cant be?!! what Im asking is: how can I STOP numpad 5 key from centering the view?!!

sorry, didnt see your post. just with black tape, works well :)

EDIT never mind, I got it to work. It looks like it doesnt like multiple displays and or certain aspect ratios. Will test at my home PC and report back, very excited your software!

Hello and so great to have you back! I just tested with my work laptop (no mods, no fancy usb devices etc) and it seems to work like a charm! However, it only works if I disable the cockpit displays. I want both the cockpit mfds and the exports at the same time, then DCS just crashes during mission load

I think this is a super cool idea!
