Cool thanks, I flew this mission 3 times thinking I did something wrong. Glad it wasn't just me.

Hi, it didn't used to be this way, but my kneeboard is greyed out. I can open up the docs still, but my knee board does not show the last doc I was looking at anymore. For example, ILS, TACAN, Channel, etc of the super carrier. I used to be able to look down and see that on my leg now it is just grey. Any thoughts on how to fix that or its just this just the way it is now? Thanks

That did it. Thanks

HI, right when I start mission 3 I see the box telling me to push F10. I am guessing this is where I can start behind the tanker. The issue is I can't get the comms menu to come up so I can push F10 in the first 60 seconds of the game with the jet powered off. How do I skip the first half of the mission? I keep getting killed by the manpad and dont want to fly the first half for the 4th, 5th, and 6th time.

Just upgraded to 2.9. My system is 13700K, 4090, 6000hz DDR5 2Tb SSD, Pimax Crystal VR headset with the latest drivers. I was at 90FPS prior to the 2.9 upgrade in every map. Now I am bouncing all over the place from 60FPS to 90FPS and that's just the title screen let alone an actual game. I have had to reinstall QuadViews twice now to get eye tracking to work. It just stops working and I have to reinstall. I even set the settings to "LOW" and the FPS is just bouncing around and I am not even playing a game. I am just in the title screen. Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.

mbucchia Ok so for the best visuals I need to set the render quality to max in pimax play then lower the peripheral resolution to 10% and then my Fov Res to 200% in quadview companion (Give or take depending on my PC and such). By keeping my render quality on low I am basically forcing QuadViews to start with low resolution rendering which is not preferred? Is that accurate?

mbucchia I was referencing the Render Quality in the Pimax Play SW under the Games settings. You have a choice of min, balanced, max. Do those even matter? It seems if I set it to minimum then crank up the foveated resolution in the companion app, it seems to get a better frame rate vrs keeping the render quality to balanced or maximum in the pimax play SW. Or does that even matter because Quad Views is readjusting all the resolutions? Thanks much

Thought I would post this in hopes it might help others. For the longest time I didn't think Eye tracking was working but I had it set up wrong. Originally, I had set my render resolution (RR) to balanced and then bumped it up to maximum from time to time. I had the Pimax XR and open XR downloaded and on the Pimax XR I turned on eye tracking and quad views. I had my DFR set to maximum. I never noticed a difference. One day I ran into a video where somebody downloaded Quad Views Companion. I installed that and still no difference. What I was missing was my RR. I turned my RR down to low in the Pimax tool. Then in Quad Views Companion I turned down my Peripheral Resolution to 10% and cranked my Foveate Resolution to 300% and holy crap I can see that eye tracking is totally working. Where I was looking was crystal clear and everything else didn't matter. You can play with the setting that work for you but PR @10% and FR @300% is working great for me (4090, 13700, DDR5 @6k Hrz) At a minimum it's a great way to show eye tracking is working even on balanced and maximum RR if you set the peripheral resolution to 1% you can see eye tracking is working. I don't suggest that unless you want to test eye tracking as its distracting to see that low of resolution in your peripheral vision but play with the settings and see if that does not help. It helps me get to 90FPS 90% of the time on high settings. YES I said it "High Settings"....... I only have shadows set to medium. It only drops to 75FPS in big cities in Siria. I am hoping the 72Hrz update for Pimax crystal will fix that. I am also a VRRock lenses user and eye tracking is working just fine for me.

I had a almost perfect pass with Grade _Ok_ : (2 Wire) I did it again then got Grade C : 3PTS TMRD 3PTS - Landed 3 points TMRD – Too much rate of descent I Saved both tracks and replayed them watching from the outside of the plane and they look identical except for the grade. My question is, is 3PTS mean my AOA is off? It seemed like I followed the guide line right down onto the deck with the E bracket right in the middle coming in perfectly straight. Also, not sure how I got TMRD (all be it I was a hair high) I seem to get this grade a lot and I cant figure out what they are calling 3PTS and TMRD and how to correct that. Thanks

Hi Guys what are you using for DCS setting on the Pimax Crystal? I find it only really is good if you can get that 90FPS but that means turning resolution way down to the point it doesnt look that great. I have a 4090, 13000K I7, 30Gig of 6000 DDR5. I have FFR set to balanced, OPen XR with NIS and 20% Sharpening, and RR 75% It seems the only way to make it smooth is to turn down the render settings to low in the Pimax tool then turn graphics to medium (ish) with a few tweaks here and there. IE preload radius ect. If I turn RR up to balanced, I am in the 80 FPS and looking at the ground, I start to see it get jittery and start to see some ghosting on the buildings. What is everybody else doing for DCS settings? There does not seem to be really good settings like the HP and Quest with ASW/MR. Smart Smoothing on the Crystal makes the jutters really bad but does get rid of the ghosting wich forces you to run the FPS at the same rate is the refresh rate and in DCS 90FPS with decent clarity is looking to be impossible. Are other crystal users seeing that or do I have something configured wrong? Keep in mind this is when flying over large cities doing A2G.

@Tholozor @L4key @Hulkbust44Thats it, I was designating a target. Thanks so much guys. I would have never thought that was the problem.

Hi, I am sure I am doing something wrong but when I am using RockEyes or CBU 99s in the F18, I select CCIP but it seems to be stuck on Auto. What am I doing wrong here? I tried to arm/disarm, change out of A2G but I cannot get the cluster bombs into CCIP.

Got ya, it was too late. I uninstalled then reinstalled a few times over and thank god I was not on a plan with a data cap . I did get it working. I had to rename the folder in saved games to .old then reinstall and it is now working again.

Just downloaded regular DCS and its working just fine. I just chcked and shut off all anti virus firewall etc then tried a relaunch and same thing. One thing to note is beta keeps trying to launch Steam and Oculus. The regular DCS does not do that.

Now I am worried. After a reinstall, I still am getting a black screen. I dont see how an update could be the problem at this point. But it was working just fine prior.
