[PLANNED] Option for JHMS display for both eyes in VR

In Oculus rift VR, after switching on JHMS the sight only appears in the RIGHT eye, make it appear very strange.

Should be easy to reproduce , just switch on JHMS whilst in VR

Right eye only here as well. I'm not sure this is a bug though, but it does produce an issue for streamers since the monitor only displays what's being sent to the LEFT eye ...

It should be like this IRL.I think

Yes, according to manufacturer's webpage: https://www.rockwellcollins.com/Products-and-Services/Defense/Avionics/Displays-and-Controls/Helmet-Mounted-Displays/Joint-Helmet-Mounted-Cueing-System.aspx

[NOT A BUG] JHMS only in Right eye in VR

I refer to an already locked thread as it's not a bug, but representing the real thing.

https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=224080

I was expecting this to come as there has been a thread about this before the release of the JHMCS already. Now I have to add this to the wishlist as an option in the Special tab to be able to set it up on the left eye instead or even have it projected to both. Why you'd ask. Well, it's for medical reasons, not all of us have Dynamic Eagle eyes - and it's often the case that one's better than the other and that not always being the right one.

As I'm not suitable for RL flying at all, I have to do this virtually and I'm glad to be able to do so thanks to ED (and other companies as well), but being restricted in VR isn't a nice thing even if the real thing is just on the right eye. I don't even have a VR headset yet, but anticipate to get one next year, and I want to know that I can use it without restrictions from ED's side

Issue with JHCMS in VR ?

Hello,

Does it's normal that the JHCMS's display is only on one eye when using VR ? I don't have the display for the left eye.

Thanks

It is correct as is. I didn't think it was right either but thats how the big boys do it so thats what we have.

interesting. I know the cobra that the viper and hog drivers have IRL is one eye, but I thought the JHMCS was 2 eyes. Good to know.

OKay nice ! If it's like the real, why not :)

Can I know why it is like that on the real one?

When you do eventually get your VR headset, wear it upside down. Problem solved.

Might be an idea to make it both eyes for VR as a concession to current gen VR limitations.

My guess is that it wont last long before a mod will be avaliable so people can choose what eye to use, or maybe even on both eyes.

I dident try the JHCMS much, but in vr i could imagine it might be more pleasant in the long term to use both eyes.

but lets see :)

Reposition HMD VR

Is there a way to move the HMD in VR, it is way to far to the left and I can only read about half of it. It is not in the center in my right eye.

Please, an option to change JHMCS to left, right or both eyes, because not all of us have perfect vision in both eyes, maybe some see better through the right eye, others through the left... whether it's real or not.

You can also configure other unrealistic options in the simulator, so please ED keep all users in mind.

HMD Not CENTERED in Right Eye VR

The HMD is not CENTERED in the Right Eye. It is too far to the left of Center. HTC Vive User. Is there a way to move it further to the right? I messed with forcing IPD but that doesn't change the location it displays. It is currently unplayable as it forces me to be cross-eyed to view the HMD.

Trying to illustrate what my issue is. In the image, that T light on the deck is center view point and that’s where the HMD aligns. Seems there’s an Align button in the HMD menu, but of course it doesn’t do anything.

JHMCS in VR mode

Is it normal that the JHMCS hud is only visible through one lense when in VR?

It works fine, but only through the right lense of my Rift.

Not sure if this is a bug, or reflects the real thing (it's doesn't feel normal and is kinda nauseating)

Any other Rift users here that can confirm this?

On the real JHMCS, it is a right eye display.

However, from what I'm reading from my squad mates, the VR display is causing eye fatigue and feels as you described. I'm hoping they can continue to adjust it with a VR option to stereo the display to prevent it from causing long term issues.

It's realistic to be in one eye, but Wags has said they're looking into giving us the option of both eyes in the Special menu.

phew.... thanks guys, I thought something was wrong with my install orso :P

F-18 VR display in both eyes

is there a mod to change F-18 helmet display to both eyes like he Su-27 in VR?

Not yet but ED are working on it as a special option.
