Did you do a new style room set up in the menu that appears when you hold both volume buttons down for a few seconds? That's a brand new feature in the last three or so P-Play versions. You don't need controllers to navigate, a green dot appears, place it over a menu item and tap a volume button, which acts as a mouse select click. You should ultimately end up surrounded with hexagonal green walls around you, your headset will learn the room as these panels disappear when you aim and allow it to learn, on all sides. It's OK to take the HMD off and owl aim it behind, up and down. Most important is set your headset on the floor when it wants to learn the floor level for a few seconds to stabilize than tap the volume button to select. Now every time you fire up the software set the HMD on the floor while the pimax play fires up and turns green with a connection, you should be perfectly positioned on the asteroid and have solid tracking in your games every time.

If your using a big screen TV as a monitor the light off that itself may be disrupting your tracking depending on how close. Try turning it off once in game, you may have to place other detailed objects around your play area, or light up the area blocked out by TV light. There was printable black squares that helped with this a while back you could hang to help the headset see.

Usually the 1-1 is titled as the Aircraft performance manual, has every performance chart ever compiled in testing, such as braking distances for every known runway condition, high elevation airfield take off performance with obstacle clearance charts, and things like loss of an engine or two flight performance charts if multi engine. Any flight condition and it's tested performance that you could think of, including things like range to power setting charts. When I see a 1-1 that's the manual I automatically think of, but if it's way back the manual series may have been different and not yet standardized.

I don't believe anyone is actually going to drop armor with crew inside. All of the US forces training and exercise drops I've ever done were with the same old shelled out junk with the actual fighting vehicles standing by ready on the ground. The wreckage and failure rates are to high to actually drop the real gear on a regular basis, the costs would be enormous, only happening in a real shooting match. You don't have to actually destroy your good equipment to get quality and real drop training. And if you note the guys riding in that armor shot are fully kitted with personnel chutes and drop gear, what would be the purpose of wearing that if your strapped inside on a drop? Good luck bailing out of a light armored vehicle falling in a drop that's gone wrong, not happening with anyone sane.

With that 1-1 supplemental flight manual there's no need for a working jet, that thing has every performance metric you'll ever need to make a flight model and more. It's rare to get an actual hold on one of those manuals, they were a controlled item and had accountability, had to be turned back in by any aircrew they were issued too. Generally they weren't issued to single piloted aircrew, but a copy available back at the squadron for any reference. For heavy multi-crew they were issued to flight engineers only.

One thing that can be improved is the ability to set wingman to 0 and not have one. Why do I want a wingman in my way going one on one in a fast scenario to get quick gun training, or destroying my training targets? That should be one of the major purposes behind a quick action generator, get in fast, maximize guns training in the limited time most of us are stuck with. For me the whole purpose is fast action specifically against a type I want to go up against, random isn't wanted for that, nor does a restricted list of opponents. That's just another waste of quality air to air combat time which I really don't have. This sim has never been set up for developing proficiency in more than one or two types at a time for us average players, and this is the major reason. Lack of fast access on a limited time budget. I've stopped buying modules because of this, there's no way to use but a few in any sort of efficient manner, way too cumbersome. One would think it would be in Eagle Dynamics own interests to fix this problem, at least they finally tried.

Very disappointing, the F-5E on a bomber intercept mission set on all is restricted to only WWII aircraft??? Really Even the dogfight is a funky very limited list of third rate stuff, who wants to bother going up against that garbage? Why isn't there an unlimited mode where I get to choose what I want to fight? This doesn't even make sense.

Keep your batteries, that'll always be a weak link. Proprietary batteries, and their weight mounted on your head, just another failure point. For flight sims it's not as if we need to nor want to walk around. If you got the cash to continually throw a new VR headset on every year that may be the way to go, but for scale of economy through long term operation and reliability tethered will never be beat using a quality built HMD.

Turn off the security features in your bios that win 11 requires for an update and it will tell you your Win 11 is ineligible to upgrade to the latest version. You can stay on 23 forever and still get updates.

OK thanks, hope it also resets position completely to the default center X,Y,Z on the planet Vulcan.

It's awful without it, see they added the option to center the HMD by hitting the volume button for three seconds. The big problem there is many of us never purchased nor wanted had controllers, and the app that opens don't work with a mouse, you can't even shut it dowm. Some games are almost unplayable now, the alignment is so out of whack upon start with no more easy solution. Can we get it back, or can we go back to the old play with this newer firmware?

Go to the files on launcher and wait, it will take a while and the wheel will spin, in a few minutes it will refresh the modules list and allow the download of Germany. Same with the purchase on main site, refresh is your friend. Middle continent North America, map is over half downloaded.

First run 502, second attempt 504, server is AWOL.

Nice, with a US factory humming I'll be using the Amazon store when production catches up. The most convenient option, just pay for the thing and be done. If there's any major issues it can be sent right back to the store, no messing around.

Still not correct, too high, the first zero should be no more than 2/3 it's own height above the bottom of the vertical stab where it mates to the fuselage. The cut out colored drawing is correct, the in game model screenshot is more than the height of the 010 by almost a factor of 1.5. That's an error double the regulation standard.

Under $1000 you can throw the wide FOV requirement out, not happening with any latest gen HMD. Over I'd wait just a bit, the Pimax Supers are shipping in two days, in another week we should be seeing actual flight sim users with initial impressions and reviews to follow. It meets both requirements on paper at least so far.

I did say temporary solution, as of now you got squat, its definitely slightly better than nothing. Besides it wouldn't be a bad feature for the library in itself.

Air Force TO 1-1-4 specifies the serial will be placed 2/3 the height of the serial number block, above the bottom of the tail fin.

So why can't a skin select menu option be added to the library? It already selects a new livery every time you flick back and forth between two airplanes, objects, or vehicles. In it you can zoom and rotate with nice inspection ability already there, to easily line paint parts up. It's quickly accessible and far faster than firing up missions and having to fly the things to examine them. Right now the library is not very handy, but only because you can't self select the skin, how hard would it be to give that option, could be a quick fix temporary solution.

Very excited about the instant action mission generator, the old falcon one was the cats meow. You could rapidly test your jet against all potential challengers.

If you don't start it using the Games profile page with a DCS specific profile the settings being used in game from the Games page are going to be the default ones, not the profile settings. Not so important if DCS is the only game on your rig, but can be a problem if it isn't, such as quadviews crashing another game or not switching on in DCS.

Might be the year of the Dragging?

Had the same issue, stuck in a limbo offline state error 0. Funny thing I wasn't in an offline state prior to patching, did the DNS trick and I had access to most 3rd party modules but no multiplayer or DCS modules. My offline.bin was inside the config folder in saved games, set everything right once deleted and game launcher restarted.

Over 98,000 sorties in Korea, how do you not include it.

Fire up Pimax Play, left side select 'Settings', than turn on the 'Public Test Channel', than hit the 'Check for updates' button top right. It works now and will offer you the option to update to 1.37.01.01
