  1. They're for distance..but yeah, I use them as well. I mean, Rift (both CV1 and now S) are fine with glasses (at least for me). The resolution and "better clarity" mentioned by some folks with Rift S..I just don't see it..and if it's there..it's marginal..
  2. I got the Rift S and honestly didn't notice much of a difference in that department..but maybe I had bigger expectations?
  3. Apparently, I had the same issue with Target software for TM Warthog. Thanks for the tip, it works now!????
  4. ^^Once the TGP locked on to the target I did just that. The Mav seeker was uncaged and it slew directly onto the TGP diamond/locked on to the target. I even get a launch cue on the HUD (while holding the lase/trigger) but once I hit the weapon launch button, nothing happens...
  5. I am having the same issue. When I lase the target with the TGP and slew/lock the mawerick seeker to it, I press and hold the laser (trigger) untill I get a Mav Launch cue on the HUD. Problem is, when I press the launch button, Maverick won't launch (I still keep the trigger/laser pressed). It's driving me crazy to be honest...
  6. LSO is a bit on the shy side..he won't talk to just anyone..he needs to get to know you first..and than maybe, if there's chemistry in the air, he'll give you landing callouts.
  7. ^^I believe so. I think someone already asked Wags about this on his YT channel.
  8. I'm actually more interested in the carried module/comms/animated crew than in the F-16C Module (which I pre-purchased).
  9. Would be great if there was an option (as weird as it may sound) to "disable" either one of the pits (when flying, say, in Singleplayer at least). The very detailed (double) cockpit may have something to do with the performance issues..
  10. I did set the HUD to landing mode but couldn't find this info. Could you please clarify?
  11. Thanks for the reply guys..so, I guess I should just focus completely on instruments..wonder if RL pilots followed that route under the same conditions..I mean, flying in pitch dark in a simulator, solely relying on instruments is scary enough...could only imagine what it must have felt like for the real pilots..
  12. Flying the Tomcat in VR during daytime is pretty challenging to me, having to look/focus hard at the airspeed and altitude gauges in order to be able to read them, and at the same time, look in front of me to regain my situational awarness. It's not a big deal..after some time, I got the hang of it..however, flying during night (no moon) is a completely different story. I have to use Night Goggles in order to figure out where I'm flying..but at the same time, I have to turn them off every time I want to check my altitude and airspeed gauges...which in turn makes the flying a real pain in the a** and I get disoriented quite often...sometimes close to hitting the deck... How do you guys fly at night? Bare in mind..I'm referring to moonless, pitch-dark nights...in Hornet, I can see my altitude and speed indicators right in front of me and relying on instrument flying is a lot easier..especially keeping the altitude steady..(by manual way, not by using autopilot) in Tomcat, during night, having to look low to the left every few seconds and than look back at the HUD makes me completely loose awarness of my surrounding.. Any tips, hints, would be appeaciated...
  13. ^^Yes I did. It always screws up Jester keybind/function in-game. I removed it and use my own profile.
  14. Uninstalling Voice Attack and doing the repair did the trick. I would like to know exactly WHY does Voice Attack disables the Jester button every time when it's installed..
  15. After installing Voice Attack, Jester Menu won't show ingame, even after pressing assigned key/HOTAS button. This happens even with the Voice Attack disabled. No matter what key I assign for Jester Menu, it simply won't show up ingame. Any ideas? Thanks.
  16. I posted this in the INPUT/OUTPUT forum but no replies. Trying my luck here. Has anyone made a diagram of Warthog HOTAS default bindings for Heatblur's F-14? Thanks.
  17. Hi there! Is there a Warthog diagram of the default throttle and stick functions/bindings for the DCS: F-14B module? Thanks in advance!
  18. 1. Are there YT tutorials on cold start (not the 20 minute one, but a bit faster cold start)? 2. Are there YT tutorials on how to land the Tomcat (land and carrier)? Thanks.
  19. Where in Mission Editor can one set the AA Tacan for Awacs? All I see is the Comms frequency? The carrier has the TACAN option but it appears, the AWACS does not?
  20. Is there a video out there of "normal" startup, with instructions (one that does not take 20 minutes or so to start taxxing)? Thanks.
  21. For the carrier landings, I always set my trim up long BEFORE landing..so, by the time I'm lined up and about to hit the deck, my flight path marker/velocity vector and E-Bracket are 'synced' (i.e. the FPM is inside the E-Bracket) so it's basically, from that point on, focusing only on the stick (movement).
  22. If you can afford it, get VR. It takes simming to a whole new level (i.e. the only thing you'll be missing are the G-Forces.. :D)
  23. I never land that heavy..even if the sim allows it, it's not how's it's supposed to be done IRL. I usually land on the carrier with around 30,000 pounds of overall weight..
  24. In VR, I simply get up from my chair and look behind. Not quite "realistic" but the only way...as the wire retracts too fast for me to make a turn with my plan and see it from the cockpit (as done IRL if I'm not mistaken).
