Think of VKB as separate from DCS and not 'within' the game like the DCS Kneeboard hence the mouse is focussed only within DCS when flying. If using a tablet then the pen works fine as does configuring keyboard keys or if you have spare controller buttons you can assign those .... all these are outside of the DCS GUI. VoiceAttack using assigned keyboard combinations is another way. Hope this helps some....

I do not think VKB is the problem with VRAM not being released. With me It was there before I installed VKB and often became worse when you respawned into the same or another aircraft. Resetting seated position in SVR sorted things for the most part but sometimes a complete restart of WMR & SVR was required. Yes it could be DCS or WMR / Steam. Often, on quitting DCS to desktop the GPU is still running full chat with WMR portal open, so yes VRAM is held somewhere. I have only had VKB running this past fortnight and it is great with no performance hits at all..... but we are all running differrent CPUs, GPUs, MBs, Memory, etc let alone the OC's... With latest steam beta software it is happening much less. YMMV

For the most part, for me, alt tab to Steam VR, > settings > reset seated position then alt tab back to DCS fixes things... I say "For the most part" because after 3-4 spawns a radical drop in fps can only be fixed by a reboot of DCS, WMR & SteamVR. Looking at memory stats it seems as if DCS or WMR is not releasing VRAM and then you spawn on top which drops frames from 60 to 10.... 100900K, 2080ti, 64 RAM. HP G2

Always been great my end...G1 back 3 times over 2 years and this is the first issue on the G2.... the G1 was a business launch and consequently I always take the business options to contact.... worse wait was about 10 minutes... and all sorted promptly... might be worth always select the business line when calling and let then transfer....

You were lucky.... my G2 has been faultless for 8 months till about 5 days ago.... now it is virtually impossible to get a connection on whatever USB3... dropping freq to auto from 90Hz sometimes works.... Registered it as a warranty fault - HP believe a new type cable may help - me I'm not so sure but time will tell... anyway email Friday past, HP are out of stock on the cable, at least UK that is......

Happens to me in VR only though.... when respawning from one aircraft to another - from 50FPS to 10FPS.... G2 on high settings GTX2080ti.... what works for me is to alt tab to SteamVR and 'reset seated position' that normally cures it. Seems somewhere DCS ? Windies is not releasing memory.

A curious comparison... Running an OC i9-10900K WC on a ASUS Maximus X11 Hero with 64mb RAM feeding a GTX2080ti in 2D displaying with mostly high settings on a 3440 x 1400. A couple of months ago on Syria the CPU was running at 100% with about 40%CPU and returning around 80FPS - In the Caucasus it was around 120FPS.... a good all round result. Now, 27 June 2021 on the same map at the same place CPU is down to around 10-20% and GPU about 50% with 30FPS spawning on the Roosevelt. Memory used is shown as 32mb. That's some FPS hit! Disabled SRS. Vaicom, Tacview and DCSBios scripts in the export.lua and FPS went up to 50FPS. Whatever DCS has done the CPU performance has taken a big drop.... hopefully only temporary.. If you are struggling with FPS maybe worth a punt disabling any export scripts if you can.....

Just installed as per the instructions and all works well. Great piece of kit.... DCS 2.7.1.7139 Open Beta (had to minimise SRS overlay)

Thanks Ramsay, the breakers did the trick....

I cannot find any way to pull up the comms menu, I even mapped all COOMs to spare buttons on the off chance that it was a UL keyboard thing. Anyone any ideas.... as of this build 24 MAY 21 or is just simply borked? I must admit I always regret buying this module... it has never been really sorted...

All the time, every single day..... 80% changing planes 90% changing servers - always MP SP not so much Running a HP G2 via i90100k W/C 64gb ROG MAXIMUS HERO 2800TI WIND 1O PRO ON M2 WITH 560GB SPARE PAGESYS AUTO Only sure fix is close DCS close WMR close STEAMVR and restart... Terrible pain.. Most settings are high and FPS 40-60 then on model change FPS drops 10-15 and un-useable. No idea whether it is DCS or Steam or Windows..

So am I but as of now it is not recognized as a bug even though the complete module reliability is frustratingly broken in MP. 2 workarounds, 1) Put in a Stennis 10 miles away and spawn on that, old skool Stennis works without issue or 2) Most of the time if ai is not playing you can line up 10' short of the shuttle, drop your bar and slowly advance. Often the ai will wake up. If you are too close to the shuttle sometime ai will wave you straight through them and not pick it up but they are now awake, go round and come in and it should be good. Hope this helps...

With us, this not a standing bug that is present all the time. On default 24/7 MP training miz no real issues but then the aircraft spawn is spread over a period of time and occasionally 1 A/C will not connect to the launch crew...... fly off without the CAT, land and all is good, its working again. However for larger specific MP missions involving multiple A/C types the SC ai launch is totally unreliable, period! For us, with say 30 - 40 A/C in the mission, spawn 6 onto a carrier, all start up and prepare to launch BUT no CAT crew will accept a launch request despite being on the correct freq etc... a sort of a uncoordinated dance begins as frustrated ED cursing pilots gracefully dance between the CATs desperately looking a launch. Op launch window busted, carrier wing mission fail! ReSpawn and Respawn to no avail then suddenly one makes a connection normally on cat 1 and he is off, some can connect to CAT 1 now other cant... then CAT 4 starts working for some and another is launched...then CAT 2 works then CAT 3, someone has finally paid the ai to do some work and all the CATS work. I've no doubt it will be fixed and realize it is difficult for any group of testers to cover all configurations of mission assets.

Just create a correctly named folder structure in your saved games, and in this case, extract the images from the download zip and place them in the folder... For the hornet it is.. C:\Users\<YOUR PC NAME>\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\KNEEBOARD\FA-18C_hornet\ Helps if you bind buttons to kneeboard view, and prev and next commands in DCS controls

Minsky Thanks for the update, the original was good, these are better, sincerely thanks for sharing...

Snipped 06APR21... you can work out the time line from that..... Brilliant!

Sorry to hear that Ben, If I can do anything to assist just shout. If you do not find anywhere that suits you, you're welcome to hang your hat in 892 with the Hornet or under the umbrella of 1 FTS if you want to use the servers and keep in touch with the wider RAFAir community.. You know where to find me.. Chris

load Hercules_Cargo.lua in the ME as a trigger 'do script file' action or use Hercules_Cargo_CTLD.lua if you have MIST loaded and use CTLD. Hope this helps some,

See attached png... STEAM VR beta 1.15.13

Agreed. On the G2 Setting SteamVR resolution per eye to 118%, the indicated dot position on the slider bar, gives me the same result as setting 2160 x 2160 on the G1. Initially I set 2160 x 2160 on the G2 and instantly noticed the poorer res in use. Use the dotted position on the slider bar for max. So far G1 v G2 all is good as indicated by reviewers but the standouts must be speakers 1st, larger sweetspot 2nd and comfort / tilt 3rd and to boot a thinner cable... ,

No, ai response changes build by build at the moment and of course they are pretty stupid in the first place. Use a wpzone and all will be good. Create an available trigger zone called wpzone1 ..... or whatever is named in your script if you have changed it.... and place the center at or behind the enemy making sure the LZ is within the zone. Any troops dropped in the zone will make their way tot he center. If enemy are in the way, bingo you have a fight, as desired..... Hope this helps, sri if you already know this function...

Agreed 100%... at times I just wish the info feeds from RB on changes were better than what they are.... but then we are getting fixes / changes so I am happy...

Yes, I can only assume it is feet, and yes the display changing that way is pretty annoying. Divide by 6000 and you'll get something near NM.... better still unbox it and just use the bearing unless of course you're short on gas. I've no idea if it is staying or was a slip... the HUD symbiology appears to be in a state of flux and RAZBAM info about it is pretty tight lipped for whatever reason. Note you have 2 altimeter read outs all the time now as well.... above 5K you see one preceded with a D - I think that's for digital - GPS but no idea...
