Based on your response, I’d say the only way to get advice around here is to have an attitude. In any event, when your VR isnt working, 12 hours is an eternity.

I seem to have solved the problem by uninstalling and reinstalling windows mixed reality, not just the portal. Not sure what caused the install to start functioning like that, but with the reinstallation, things seem to be back to normal. Thank God. Thanks for all the useful advice. Couldn’t have done it without you.

So a couple of days ago I noticed that my HP Reverb felt much hotter than I am used to and the display in the WMR portal was much more bright and vibrant. I am also noticing that the image blurs when I move my head, and then returns to normal when movement stops. Something is clearly off. I've found one other person reporting this issue in the HP Support forums. He seemed to solve the issue by uninstalling the portal and re-installing it. I've tried that several times to no avail. Anybody know what the heck is going on and how to stop it? VR is pretty much unusable until I get this sorted out. Thanks guys.

I wonder if it is not working for me since I am using the mic that comes with the headset? Doesn't really make sense though since the mic appears to pick up audio without the controller being on...that's the only difference I can see though.

That’s what I want to accomplish. How did you do it? What headset are you using? I’m using an HP Reverb. How are your speech settings configured? What voice command are you using?

The commands including, "Flashlight on," only seems to work for me if I have the controller on. If I shut the controller off, all commands stop functioning. Anybody able to get it to work without the wands turned on? Thanks.

Any update on these? I'd like to order the v1, but if v2 is right around the corner, I'll hold off. Also, is online ordering going to be implemented on the Pointctrl website soon? Seems like that will be a much more convenient way to go about making the purchase. Thanks.

Will there be a discount package for getting the throttle and panels all at once? That would push me over the edge.

So, at the risk of asking a really stupid and obvious question, why isn't it possible to simply affix a small knob or attachment to the existing slew device that is there. For instance, in less than 30 seconds, I was able to make a small knob with a plastic cap and a washer I had laying around. I haven't glued it to the end of the slew control yet, but when I hold it onto the end of the device, it seems like it will function well...Surely, someone must have tried this.

$100 - $150 USD seems reasonable for each panel.

Nice. Any ETA on when these might be available? Looks like they are in early development. Good timing on the post though based on my thread today asking for information. Can you provide any details on what systems each panel will model and how they will be sold? Thanks.

Is there any information or details about the upcoming combat ready and take-off panels for the throttle? I'm very interested in the throttle, but the current panel and its switches don't really blow up my skirt. I will use the switches on the panel most for take-off and/or combat, so I'd like to see how these options will stack up next to the panel that currently ships with the throttle, and see what features they will offer, i.e. FCS reset, flaps, radio, etc.? Thanks.

So it works when I set a key command to call the ball. I never do get the ball option in the comms menu like I have seen in videos, but once called with the key command, the LSO communicates with me . Strange.

OK. So this has to be done by key command? Because the option does not show up in the comms menu...

Just caught my first 3 wire in the Super Carrier module, but one problem...I never get LSO comms. All communications work as intended throughout, from first contact with ATC at 50nm, through contact with tower at 3nm, breaking the deck and kiss off. Then, when I turn on final with gear, flaps and hook down, I never seem to get any ball option or comms from the LSO. I can only call Clara. What am I doing wrong?

I hear some doctors are prescribing the Super Carrier module in lieu of Viagra. It seems to be having a similar effect.

Whatever can be done to raise anxiety and make the wait more intolerable. lol

Thank you! That is fantastic news and all I'm talking about. If that simple piece of information had been shared in the official weekend news, you wouldn't have had to bother here. I just don't get it. In any event, thanks again NineLine.

My only complaint with ED, which clearly remains, has been about the manner in which information is conveyed, or in most cases, not conveyed. I have never faulted ED for bugs, glitches, technical issues and the like. If its broke, I get it, but to not include any official word or comment in the weekend updates is patently ridiculous. Its just another missed opportunity to communicate effectively with your customer base. It almost feels spiteful...although, I'm certain it is not.

Not even so much as a mouse fart in the weekend news. All it would take is a single line. "We know you're eagerly waiting. We're working hard and we are getting there." Something...Anything. Instead? Nothing! But, some of you will keep making excuses claiming that ED communication is second to none! Enjoy the P47 screenshots though.

In my line of business, if I was as vague, ambiguous and non-communicative as I feel ED sometimes is with information, I wouldn't have any clients and I wouldn't be in business. The manner in which information is conveyed is my number one criticism with ED, beyond anything else. Communication is scattered, comes from multiple sources and is posted in multiple places with an absolute and utter lack of consistency. Furthermore, most informative posts aimed at providing an update raise more questions than they actually answer. I can only surmise that this is done on purpose, as the information is either simply not available to the person posting it, or the full truth is left undisclosed for various internally mandated reasons, which leaves the individual communicating it to dance around the truth. Some people are always going to hold delays, bugs and problems against ED, and in many circumstances, unfairly so. However, communicating well and reasonably is 100% within ED's control and its consistent failure to do so is completely an unforced error. ED has proven time and time again to be its own worst enemy.

It is insulting at this point. Communication? Transparency?

Presently, it seems like its more of a game breaking module...just sayin' :pilotfly:

Thanks. That makes more sense, but Kate's message comes across as meaning that SP could be released in 2 weeks without too much trouble if acceptable progress on MP has not been made. If that's not the case then I'm with you. I can see why precious resources shouldn't be diverted for something temporary like that.

Now this just pisses me off and I really have to call BS on the excuse given for today's delay. If you're prepared to do this in 2 weeks, why the hell not just do it now. WTF?
