  1. How do you partially apply it?
  2. some say taking a strap like that and just going from side to side adds support on the top of your head and it makes a difference ..
  3. Your monitor may have a display port connection as well as HDMI most do, unless it's a TV ..
  4. Monitor Sold GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1080 Windforce OC 8gb Video Card $400 shipped Never overclocked or used for mining...Selling because I got a new card for Christmas. Comes with original box/cd/startup guide.
  5. Hate to say it but it's true ...Of all my VR Flight sims DCS is the least optimized ...I'm not saying it's not enjoyable ....but like the Hornet not ready for prime time.
  6. PS ...The Lenovo is great if you have an IPD of around 62-64 as it's a fixed headset .......If your eyes are set like a shrunken head or like a hammer head shark it may not work for you,,,,
  7. Seems to have Worked for me as well ....Lenovo Explorer ....thanks
  8. No comparison ..night and day..Gimbal is way better all metal ...much smoother ...I have both ....
  9. Nice job!
  10. Me too ^
  11. Exactly ...I have my curves set to mil power at indent and shaved the indent a little so I can just push through to afterburner.... Easy to do and no lifting.
  12. All depends on your budget ......And how long you want to wait ...I would list them in this order add the rudder of your choice ...I have VKB's and they work great 1) Virpil WAR BRD base + the upcoming Thrustmaster or Realsimulator.com Hornet grip or buy a Warthog grip from Thrustmaster. and Warthog throttle. 2) Thrustmaster Warthog Hotas Set (can change to new base later if so desired ) 3) Thrustmaster Warthog joystick along with the TWCS throttle. Combined with Voice Attack can make up for any lack of buttons. 4) Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Hotas combined with Voice Attack can make up for any lack of buttons. I use #1 with VKB T-Rudders Mk.IV and am very happy with my setup and unless something dies I don't see myself ever going to another setup. Took me awhile to get here so if your on a budget I would start with the Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Hotas and add to it over time ...Good Luck
  13. Nice......Are you using a Jetseat or bass shakers ?
  14. I have a warthog on a WarBRD base and I put in the stronger springs ....works great.
  15. Hope it's more sooner than later but the realist in me thinks later.....
  16. I have Thrustmaster MFD's left and right close in front.I set them about where they would be in the pit (obviously lower) I can pretty much feel my way around them pretty well ... I use the rockers as reference points ...for the f-18 top rocker on the top left is AA/AG switch bottom is arm switch ...on the right radio lower left ....still have to setup the other rockers .....
  17. Nice ....can't wait.
  18. It's with another flight sim .... Posted over on the IL2 Forum ....guy just got his pimax 5K and flew some quick sorties ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Okey Gentlemen, a few words how I feel Pimax 5k plus with IL 2 Box. But its only inital impressions without solid messing around with settings. So nothing is set in stone yet The good : -sense of presence in 3D dimmension munch deeper that in my gen1 ( Vive , tested also Oculus , PSVR) I was flying in P47 on Kuban map between canions and mountais and due to wide fov , better resolutions, rgb strip and IMHO better scale factor I was able manouver munch easest than at my OG Vive . Also becouse of thouse factors I can locate and target ground units or objects easer ! In this heaset the sense of distance is much more pronounced. I was tested that on normal Fov mode ( around 150 horizontally) and small FOV mode ( around 125 horiontally) Even on small Fov I wasnt missed peripheral vision . It was still good enough. - Zero goodrays and tiny SDE - which dont bother me at all. I didnt played yet on MP servers with Pimax becouse need stabilize FPS first but this headset seems to give us nice advantage during combat missions. The mixed: My Vive with "Gearvr lens mod" combining with Steam VR video render settings at 340 % gives me munch crisper image . Pimax lenses are quite good but cant compete with gearvr lenses. I have this feeling that I'm watching over the windows with kind of thin foil on it. But definitly better that orginal Vive lenses or Oculus lenses. Edit : might be wrong here and lenses are great but strong exagerated LCD backlighting gives that effects. Didnt find proper settings for 90 fps yet. The problem is if you want have sharp image you need to running this game around 4000x3000 pixels per eye. On small FOV mode ( still good for me) my higher FPS was around 75 ~80 fps on Kuban map and around 50 near ground level. On normall mode - my overall fps was lower , around 66 fps and 49 near ground. Initall test was done with medium textures settings and AA 2x , HDR off, distance view set 70 km. Definitly BAD Colors - not even bad blacks, but this fraeaking fuc...g LCD backlight ruin my imerssions. I'm used to vivid colors of my Vive and 4k AOC MVA - 10bit monitors. All colurs in P5k + are bleached /faded. I know that this is very subjective but I can't deceive my mind if blue summer sky is not really blue but greyish and yellow sun is not really yellow and this dirty grass which should be beautyfully green in summer or spring... Geometry distortion - there is still something wrong when you moving your head left- right or even up/down (less), its very noticable on briefing screen and less during flight ( barelly) and not noticable with low FOV mode Conclussion Pimax promised color temp/saturation and brightness slider in PiTool, but those folks promising a lot and make only 50 % of promisses. I will play a few months at Pimax 5k+ but If they do not fix above ( backlight /distortions) than definitly I will looking for better HMD with AMOLEDs screens - meybe Pimax 5k be or new not announced yet Valve hmd - leaked specs looks fine for me . Yeah for 500 $ which I spent a year ago it was/is good deal. I still don't see nothing better on the market . Odyssey+ = problems with steam VR ( bad support) , tiny FOV, and not so crisp image. SDE tricks is not for me , prefer native resolutions with sharp image.
  19. No worries ...Appreciate the work you've done ....I use your mod in IL2m and just thought how great it would be to have something similar in DCS ....Thanks again.
  20. Is this in any way working any more?
  21. NP ....It may vary from headset to headset so you can change the values to suit what you need like from 0.5/0.3 to 0.6/0.4 or 0.7/0.5 for example ...
  22. Yep
  23. RGR ...let me know how the HMD looks in the F-18 if you have it ....it's a little light on my Lenovo Explorer.
  24. That did it Allign Thanks! ...I didn't think that setting affected VR.......I made a mod to change it to stroke_thickness = 0.5 stroke_fuzziness = 0.3 And it made it sharper in VR ...thanks again
