Same...no QV. Please, what are your setting details in PP and DCS, if you don't mind? TIA. I'm just starting my DCS quest with Super U/W 50ppd.

I'm deliberately not installing SteamVR, trying to keep my VR pipeline less complex for troubleshooting, etc. What are the must-have capabilities of SteamVR?

Request - Radar Return Emitters on Roads and other Areas
Dawgboy replied to Exorcet's topic in DCS Core Wish List
Yeah...sort of like birds and civilian aircraft. Anyway, +1 -
BTW, speaking of inside-out-tracking, I've not had any issues. (fingers crossed since I've not upgraded Pimax Play...yet) I have a physical, motionless Viper cockpit and three walls surrounding it, with a door on the left. Tracking is flawless for me, similar to my Reverb G2.

I did it both ways. Another user said even with the game-specific settings and starting the sim with PimaxPlay, unless he changed a setting and reapplied it, the setting wouldn't work. Starting the sim in PimaxPlay needs to ensure it's monitoring whether a game starts in a "standalone" mode, not through their processes. While it might work well in some cases, such as DCS, other sims won't. PimaxPlay needs a lot of work across the board.

Ok...I understand. I noticed the same thing with the settings for specific programs not working well, and somebody else on DCS said you had to change a setting, apply, and change it back to have it work. I think this is an unacceptable workaround. It should just work as intended, right? While Viper has the new visor, it's causing me discomfort...nausea. So, I'm focused on other sims, not DCS until they make the visor optional. So, my master settings are tweaked for that sim, not DCS. If you fly 3 sims, having only the master settings available, flawlessly, isn't acceptable. I'll write this up in a bug report to Pimax, too. Thanks for your insight. Hopefully what I said is understandable.

This is my experience, but I'd say I get responses in 1-2 days. I have an optical engine with a spot (or dead pixel grouping) at the 10 o'clock position, almost directly in front of my right eye. It looks like a KC135 as it just becomes visible to the naked eye. When scanning the sky for bandits, it's very noticeable, even tho small. Once I was able to take a pic of the spot, they immediately offered a new optical engine replacement, once it's in stock. I'm still waiting, but flying with the old one. I will send the current one back after I test the new. Given that I'm up when they are asleep and vice versa, responses were next-day events.

+1 The Viper is my main combat platform in DCS. It's completely unusable to me since flying with the new visor and the helmet mount above my right eye makes me extremely nauseous. The only reset is a forced nap to reset my brain. Sigh. Make it optional to revert to seeing nothing, before the last major update, please. Thanks.

Lenses steaming up...I had this once, but the solution was simple...I just use my overhead ceiling fan to keep me feeling cooled off. I'd like to hear the passthrough solution cuz for the same reason you cited.

need track replay Viper Throttle Engaged Upon Spawning into 3D
Dawgboy replied to Dawgboy's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
Thanks! Took me a while to test, but your suggestion worked and stopped my Viper from lurching upon spawning. -
The workaround for the USB connection issues is good enough to avoid what you and the others discovered. None of the new features entice me to upgrade firmware or software. Thanks!

Viper Throttle Engaged Upon Spawning into 3D
Dawgboy replied to Dawgboy's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
I'll see if that works. TIA and will report back. -
Viper Throttle Engaged Upon Spawning into 3D
Dawgboy replied to Dawgboy's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
I've witnessed in Cold War, Kola, and AFG terrains. It happens each time. I'm in SP mode. That said, it doesn't happen with the Chinook and/or Apache. -
Nvidia 581.57 Drivers Causing Black Screens and Total PC Lockups
Dawgboy replied to IndyNavy's topic in Game Performance Bugs
For me, in VR and on my monitor's view, there are mirrors of the clouds at ground level, and they disappear as I gain altitude. After PC reboot and multiple game restarts, it persists. The only change was me updating the NVIDIA game-ready driver. I did an express install to retain my NVIDIA settings. I've not troubleshot or attempted to rectify...yet. -
Viper Throttle Engaged Upon Spawning into 3D
Dawgboy posted a topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
As stated, probably this past update, when I spawn into 3D in the Viper, even though my throttle is at IDLE, I start immediately scooting across the apron/taxiway/etc. in a high-throttle-setting. I have to cycle the throttle forward and back to idle and stand on the wheelbrakes. I have a VKB STECS and this didn't happen before. I run no mods beyond SRS. Has this happened to others? TIA. -

I do the same and focus on what my eyes/mind perceive without chasing numbers.
-
This may or may not sound logical/rational, but I'm trying not to use anything STEAM-related, mainly because it made my G2 experience tougher in other sims. I know I'm no longer using the G2; however, I'm choosing to go leaner if I can, simply using a simpler VR pipeline, so to speak.
-
This is what I want from Pimax...fix the integral Play algos so I can then tweak for each sim I fly (DCS, BMS, MSFS) separately.
-
I've noticed the same; that said, it shouldn't be this way...whether it's DCS that offers a true in-game replay or a third party, DCS needs it. Tacview can give a great overview of the mission, but it's different from a video-quality reproduction. I'd pay for a 3rd-party tool.

PM'd the link.

I have the same pedals with damper. I'll be waiting for your assessment. Thanks!
-
The reply to my bug report was to lower the "local dimming" setting to LOW. This helped a bit, but the hazy glow remains in both DCS and BMS. @Calvin.Pimax do you have an account on the Falcon BMS forum to address issues there for that community? If so, what is it? Thanks.
