The cursor in Vive

Post not valid any more. Returned my Vive and got a refund because I didn't find it good enough.

The VR tech as it is now is, at least to me, not mature enough. That said however I'm convinced that it is the future.

I will however wait for generation 2 or possibly generation 3 :)

Hi mates,

 

The cross that is in your vision is it possible to turn it off or make it less obtrusive in the view?

 

I have the Rift, but this part should work the same in the Vive too. If you go to the VR tab in DCS, there should be a "Use Mouse" box. If you check that box, the cursor should only be visible when you're moving the mouse to click on things. I like leaving it off because I find I can click buttons faster by using the headset as my pointer. One other thing about using a VR headset is that you might lose control of the sim if your mouse ends up outside the game window, so hitting Alt+Enter when you enter the sim will make it full-screen on your monitor and you'll no longer have to worry about the mouse getting outside the window.

 

EDIT: DOH! Just saw your edit, but I'll leave this reply here, just in case someone else might have the same question.

You should try the rift now. With the Async Space Warp support (just came up), it makes a WORLD of difference.

 

Vive support is probably 1 year behind from Rift. From a DCS perspective, I mean.

And I'm glad you left it there, as I've been looking for exactly this solution, cheers.:thumbup:
