  1. Show the actual shortcut properties box with parameters, without error message.
  2. The wingwing MFDs have a program that exports to their lil mfd monitors-I think it works-but I got the "blank" ones for VR. I barely use them since I have PointCTRL.
  3. I remember trying to get my soundblaster sound card to work with Wing Commander....JESUS!!!
  4. In IL2 I had massive jumpiness, but good FPS (I don't know why)- If I "alt-tabbed" out and then back in again, it was smooth. No idea why, but just an idea.
  5. I got it for a <profanity>ty price, and off of Amazon. It came pretty quick, so I think it's (somewhat) available-if you can accept the pain of paying over retail price by a little. I paid over 2,500 USD. I barely researched it, so the one that I got may have been larger than standard versions, but it wasn't even close to fitting. I'd say a good 30% larger than my 3090. I figured it would probably be "safer" to get a system built around it, and return it via Amazon. If someone wanted to buy it, I still have it, but am returning it shortly. I think it would take too much trust to coordinate the transaction. But I'd be willing to try for this community.
  6. Just be aware the 4090 is a BEAST. I have an alienware with a 3090 in it. NO way could I fit it in those cramped quarters. I ended up sending the 4090 back and ordered an entire new system. Just an FYI.
  7. Yea me either. The SteamVR worked out of the box (using the initial instructions)-and then the composite XR worked too (using initial instructions). I had an Index, then Vive Pro 2. I did uninstall SteamVR and did the wipe using the below: definitive method to reset or restore SteamVR to default / factory options (clean Reinstall) :: SteamVR Troubleshooting (steamcommunity.com) But it has worked pretty well.
  8. Well, I like to tinker too. Thanks for explaining...
  9. Yea me too. Just when I thought I had things "dialed in" a whole new branch of vocabulary emerges. FSR/NIS. I was just getting my head around MFD, and CBUs.... I messed around with FSR - really just turned it on- I didn't notice a difference. I'm not sure about the upscaling etc...hurts my head... Do I need to use OpenXR Developer Tools (Also known as OpenXR Tools for Windows Mixed Reality?
  10. So, what numbers do you set your resolution when FSR is on? And the other parameters? Sharpness etc?
  11. Excellent advice. Will do. It was foregone conclusion (once you said you got better performance with open composite) that I'd have to try it. Following the initial instructions in this thread made it pretty easy. It is really appreciated for your help guys. Anyone on the fence about the Aero-it is really beautiful and clear. And after following advice in this thread it is smooth too.
  12. Just got the aero. Very pretty. Using the SteamVR/Open XR (seems simplest). MFDs sharp. No shimmering. But not quite as smooth (subjective) as the Vive Pro 2. Is the resolution via Steam VR or the Varjo Resolution PPD the ACTUAL resolution used in DCS? I saw the other posts about the OpenVR-has anyone else used this successfully? To what benefit?
  13. I did not uninstall Steam. Only Steam VR. and Vive pro (steam version). Sorry I wasn't clear. And I had done most of what you had previously done too. It was the "using the vive install process" that changed things for me (maybe). Instead of installing the software through steam itself. I'm on Win 11. I ordered the aereo as well. I'm excited about my new toy.
  14. Well I also had a shaky mess for a bit. I uninstalled everything through steam. THEN, THROUGH THE VIVE WESBSITE, I installed via their process. I downloaded the setup software and started there. During the process, it linked to Steam, and caused it download the Steam VR etc. I don't know-but it cleared my mess.
  15. I fly super low throughout that mission, and no one launches on me. I then afterburn towards Stennis, and the (spoiler) migs never catch me.
  16. I hope I save someone with my short attention span a little frustration. But honestly it really is a great starter campaign. I spent so much time just tweaking shit, and learning shit, I never really PLAYED the game. It's very cool! LOL- damn a whole button. You must have few options. My HOTAS is maxed out. The Vaicom pro has a "ground crew-salute" option
  17. Hi, I am enjoying this campaign immensely and having to bring together everything I have been practicing. This is a great starter campaign. BUT, in Mission 3 (aircraft Carrier)-Stennis gives me the green light-I go to full afterburner, annnnndddddd nothing......I sit on the carrier full burner...and I never take off....I have done the training mission for aircraft carrier takeoff, but it didn't give me the solution. I am sure I am missing something, but I can't figure it out. Anyone have any ideas? OK I figured it out-For whatever reason I had to 'salute' the ground crew....SHEEEESH
  18. Hi,

     

    Did you ever get a center mounted joystick to work on your on your rseat?

      Yes, i'm using a Virpil T50 base with extensions and a Hornet grip. I drilled 4 holes in the bottom plate and attached it with Virpils compact baseplate and M6 screws. Works fine so far.

      AWEOME. Thanks l'll try it! Any other tweaks and upgrades to the seat?

      Sure. PM sent.

  19. Yup, once you do VR you won't/can't go back to trackir etc. I have pointctrl coming, but have found mapping mouse buttons to my HOTAS works. There is a visible cross in the middle of the VR "screen" that you center (put on) the buttons etc within the cockpit. So basically you look at a button (eg MFD button; Master Arm) and then click your mapped HOTAS button to click the VR button. It's not super awesome, but it becomes pretty intuitive after awhile.
  20. I started using vaicom-I am just figuring it all out. But, I think it is a viable solution.
  21. Hi, Yes the looking down difficulty is how I am physically seated, and my HOTAS set up, as well as my VR cameras lose 'tracking' as I turn my RL head left and down that far. I can't get Bailey's VA profile to work. Any other solutions etc. A snap to comms panel would work.....
  22. You're the best. I'm focused on the A-10 II. I am trying to get this profile working, but it may be outdated. Can't seem to get VAC to output key pushes etc. Probably user error, but for now I guess I'll stick with easy comms.
  23. In VR-I am having problems "looking" down at my comms panel so that I can change frequencies. I have to crane my neck so far to look at the panel. I am waiting on PointCTRL to become available, but in the meantime are there any workarounds?
