  1. Thanks for the mirror Mustang, dling now. And was not sure but is it JSGME ready or does it require a manual install process?
  2. Dang, that link is getting a work out now apparently..lol.
  3. Hey just wanted to say thanks for doing this video. Really appreciated and very useful. Torso
  4. Only question I have is, when can I actually place an order?
  5. Thanks, I appreciate that. But yeah the way the background came out in yours is very cool and has an almost a vector graphics quality if you know what I mean. Really compliments the plane in the foreground and the monotone color palette adds to it. Another that would look at home framed on a wall for sure.
  6. You already can make it so the sounds in the game are like in a helmet for Rift usage. I have done this and I think it makes the external sounds muted as would be in a helmet and radio coms sound like they would in helmet. Right or do I gotta re-test it myself?
  7. As hansangb said, you need to alt+enter and make the game window on your monitor/laptop display full-screen(yes it will be distorted, but not in VR), this will prevent you from losing mouse focus while in game.
  8. That is a nice shot there aemvee. Diggin it.
  9. Sure you bet you can have both installed. A ton of us do. You will want to have it in it's own directory of course, no merge yet. And there are a ton of missions and a couple campaigns for the A10 as well I believe.
  10. I believe it is only showing the left eye view when on screen. No way to turn off from what I have found so far.
  11. Hey thanks man. I think I am gonna get it printed and framed. Will look good on the wall. And might actually go and do a bit of editing perhaps but SweetFX and Reshade mods alone did an amazing job with the current output untouched I feel. And not sure I could improve on it with my 0 skills anyways. But thanks for the comp and as you were picked up already I went ahead and paired up with Jaime22. Good luck to us all of course!
  12. Thanks IronMike for making the adjustment to the announcement date. I am sure it is appreciated by all as is the contest in general. Thanks again.
  13. Participant: Torso Nominated Wingman: Jaime22:Jaime of the *NOB* clan Oh and can it be clarified if the results will be determined prior to the 27th and that an announcement will be made to that effect because if we wait until the 27th for it, and not selected, won't we who have yet to pre-purchase in hopes of a free Viggen prize would in addition to the loss of the contest lose out on the last chance to pre-order as well. Kind of a double hit if so. Maybe a day prior to last pre-sale day would be good. Just a thought if not already considered. Probably has been though. On to my shot. I chose this because my girl said she liked it so much I should get it printed and framed. Simple shot but she liked the contrast and angular lines the runway provided and the gradient from light to dark from the skid marks so figure why not. She generally does me right, though she said she wished it had a red nose. Holidays. I said green will have to do ;). I also feel it really shows the subtle detail of the texture work in both the plane itself and the runways surface. The minute detail is just amazing when studied closely.

  14. I worked for Sierra Online from 97-02. Was the most fun I have ever had at a job in my life. I miss those little extras that we had in games back in the day. I often wish DCS had a pre-flight ready room and/or let you spawn in on ramp start, materialize in in 1st person view as you and walk up to your plane with a ground crew there and you climb the ladder into get in while a gc member is there to assist as they are in real life. Add so much to the immersion I think. But probably just me. I guess in general I wish airfields had there own built in mini-AI so to speak that just made them seem, in use and populated without having to try and setup something in the editor on our own that doesn't quite fill the bill. AI towing a jet for service to some part of airfield, crew doing their own tasks and routines independent of my activities or if scenario calls for it set to a 'conflict' mode vs a 'peace time' mode. Sorry, I went off there..more for a Wish thread I am sure. But thanks for reminding me of a good time back in the day.
  15. Seems those new improved panels are already in manufacturers hands with even better coming later in the year. http://www.roadtovr.com/display-conglomerate-jdi-developing-ultra-high-resolution-panels-vr-headsets/
  16. I am sorry but you are speaking broadly and applying this across the board and that is just plain wrong to do. I have tons of hrs in VR, have had both systems since day one launch. Never used one before. Not once have I felt nauseous. I know several others who are new and now heavy users, same for them. Really, there are people that get seasick, and many that don't. There are those that get carsick and many that don't. There are people who get airsick and many that don't. VR can be quick to trigger those that are susceptible to those other motion/brain conflict issues but you imply EVERYONE is going to feel these negative, technology stopping effects..at some point if you use it long enough. That is just plain wrong. Just like the ones who claimed that for all the above causes for negative reactions in a minority.
  17. Just wanted to say congrats on store arrival Cobra. Always a nice milestone.:thumbup:
  18. You mean them rockets still in their pods yet also somehow inflight?:smartass:
  19. If you want to have tactile transducers in your setup you dang well do. I've been rocking multi sound cards for years.
  20. Nothing, you tell her nothing. The cost to be a man is way less than it is to be a woman. She gets makeup, you get a virtual jet. Luck of the gender draw man. No need to explain it.
  21. You can wear your glasses while using the devices. Ideally you will have a pair of lean designed glasses because big frames can be an issue with the available open space in the headset. But yeah, you can wear glasses with them. I know of some that get a set of VR specific glasses if their daily style choice is not ideally suited. Also, you can get VR lens inserts that match your prescription as well from these guys. http://vr-lens-lab.com/
  22. Well I am glad Friday is the start of my vacation until the 3rd. Whatever is coming, I shall be ready for it. Hopefully something more than words is gonna show up :smilewink:
  23. Nice Verde. I like that axle boot idea. Gonna have to maybe add one to my setup. Very cool. That for sure is one cozy setup Shabi. Nice you made use of the space like that. Close of a door, not a sim item in sight. Quick update on my chair. I got my 1st pass prototypes for my Cougar MFD mounting adapters printed out and test fit is awesome. Yay, no more tape holding shit together! Final version has a couple of tweaks to design and will be printed up soon. Also waiting for new mounting plates from cnc shop. Anyways as this was being planned I, as well as us all :(, were expecting the F-18 out at end of year so I wanted to have 3 MFDs like it has so I could at least eliminate those from the cockpit VR click and lets me reach out and touch an actual control where it exists in virtual space which is the whole goal here after all for the most part, augmenting my virtual experience. So here is my center MFD mounting solution. I think it is gonna be just awesome once finalized. Final is height adjustable and has a bit more of an angle away from joystick. But this test one clears fine and neither hand nor joystick comes in contact at all with it at full range. And this is the adapter for the left and right MFD's mounted and on arm at full collapse. Once bolted to new mounting plates they will be completely storable and allow the chair to be used for any other normal usage. Only holding it up in this pic as can't bolt on yet. Of course one will be on the other side as well :smartass: And in general pos for use Anyways, will update once all is back from manufacturing and hoping to take it all apart and maybe do a proper build post since I will have all parts ready to go in one shot.
  24. Ohh to be young and optimistic again. (Yes there is some assumption on my part there)
  25. How about we let them just focus on getting 2.5 and F-18 out. As well as finish up last of Normandy map and ship it. After those. Then let's talk. Carriers DLC be nice for sure.
