SimFreak Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) I map my mouse buttons to x55 throttle rocker switch(down - left click, up - right click) works pretty well, then point with my head where I need to click. Although I do keep mouse enabled cause I still use it to navigate the \ menu and I like how this way the pointer disappears when not in use. The only inconvenience is that I have to bring the pointer back to the center of view when I finish using the mouse. I mapped under UI left/right mouse to joystick, but in the game it doesn't work. Is there more to it? Edited June 27, 2017 by SimFreak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dburne Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 I mapped under UI left/right mouse to joystick, but in the game it doesn't work. Is there more to it? It is a little finicky, when first start one has to make sure to click kind of in middle of screen to first get it to show, after that should be ok.

VO101_MMaister Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I need some advice. Currently I have a 2600k runing at 4,5ghz and a GTX1070. WHWhat can I expect from this combo with a CV1? I have the chance to buy one at a good price but I don't want to upgrade my pc.

Silvern Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 How is Oculus for flying the A-10C? Can you read the HUD or MFCD and see the TGP with good enough clarity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDuke6ixx Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 How is Oculus for flying the A-10C? Can you read the HUD or MFCD and see the TGP with good enough clarity? I can no problem, as most seem to be able to, but some (small number) complain. It's almost like they haven't worked out that you can lean in a bit closer if you have to. Anyway, I can fight the A10C in VR without compromise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
some1 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 How is Oculus for flying the A-10C? Can you read the HUD or MFCD and see the TGP with good enough clarity? The default view, which is much more forward than a real pilot sits, makes it quite usable. You shouldn't have much problems, esp. if you already know the aircraft. If you try to move the eyepoint to a realistic position though, things get complicated. The HUD becomes partially clipped and reading the small print on MFD requires leaning forward.

The HUD becomes partially clipped and reading the small print on MFD requires leaning forward. I always fly from the correct eye position and readability is not an issue. Also, the HUD in the sim is accurate. In real life the pilots do in fact have to lean forward to see the entire HUD. Sorry to hear that you find leaning forward a bit, a bit 'complicated'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnhard Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 How is Oculus for flying the A-10C? Can you read the HUD or MFCD and see the TGP with good enough clarity? Sommehow, idk why, the OR is absolutely clearest in the A10C. Much more than in the Viggen for comparison. Idk why. Just make sure you crank up pixel render amount to 1.5 or more. Makes a world of difference.

Lucky Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Am I the only one who loves the Rift and VR in general but find it more difficult to play DCS seriously with it. Things like keyboard commands, 9 line briefs are a PITA to deal with with the Rift on. I think I'm going back to my TIR 5 and save the Rift for other VR games and less serious flying in DCS.

Things like keyboard commands, 9 line briefs are a PITA to deal with with the Rift on. I think I'm going back to my TIR 5 and save the Rift for other VR games and less serious flying in DCS. The only drawbacks for me are the performance hit (especially in the alpha), harder to spot targets and the warmth of the rift after having it on for extended periods. I used to use the TM MFD's, but find it very easy in VR to just grab the mouse (muscle memory) and click whatever is not bound to my hotas. In fact I wish I could go back to using TiR so that I could fly BMS again. But last time I did so, it just didn't do it for me anymore. The positional 1:1 tracking and the feeling of being in the cockpit are just too good to go back.

It's harder. I think a lot of us compensate with full hotas (that's a given) but also with a real kneeboard. You can jot things down peeking through the bridge of the nose.

witwas Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 If you fly helos (like i do most of the time) there is no going back. landing spot on becomes child play. I can now even fly backwards like i have done nothing else in my life. Had to use screens + trackir again because i got stuck in a mission (not able to fly in smoke with vr).

hansangb Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 You can check the "use mouse" in the UI layer, IIRC. The UI layer is in the drop down box in the control setup menu. The same drop down you use to pick which airplane you wan to modify (the controls). UI layer is at the bottom of that list. hsb HW Spec in Spoiler --- i7-10700K Direct-To-Die/OC'ed to 5.1GHz, MSI Z490 MB, 32GB DDR4 3200MHz, EVGA 2080 Ti FTW3, NVMe+SSD, Win 10 x64 Pro, MFG, Warthog, TM MFDs, Komodo Huey set, Rverbe G1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colmillo Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Hello everyone, I am a new user of Oculus Rift, and I'm looking for a good advice to configure this wonderful piece of art. I'm change all the parameter, but it's seems that nothing happens, and I see the cockpits same as High resolution or VR (in DCS configurations). Does anybody find the correct parameters in nvidia and in the DCS worlds?

No, I am trying to say if I click VR or HIGH preset, I dont see any difference. A few moments ago I tryed Oculus Tray Tool, and I cannot see difference at all, maybe I am not using all the settings in a proper way, for that reason I am asking for help, I think that there are a lot of pilots whose spend hours of hours (like me) and one of them catch the right configiguration.
