[REPORTED]1.5 Broken. Mouse will not move after update ... Oculus

[Tinkickef]

Since today's update, the mouse cursor will not move in VR, it just jigs backwards and forwards, making it impossible to select switches and therefore ramp start the A10C.

was this after clicking the radio menu? if so it has been reported

[metzger]

Same for me ka-50, mirage, the mouse is locked like you have deselected "use mouse" in the VR menu.

Same here, totally unplayable.

 

It has nothing to do with clicking the radio menu I get it immediately after mission start. Deleted my Saved Games DCS folder and disabled all mods still no joy.

[Bimbac]

Same here.

same here

I can move the cursor with the mouse but I will always go back to the center once I stop moving the mouse like it's a rubber band. It's weird. It has nothing to do with the radio at all. I've only tryied it in the A-10C

It appears that the mouse no longer works inside the cockpit you must use head tracking to put the crosshairs on a switch, then click with your mouse, not very workable at thispoint

Confirmed here too - mouse pointer only works in VR when there is a menu up, rest of the time in game it is tied to your VR centre of view. Checked Options and all the same it was before.

It seems that the ED team could really use a couple more VR testers for releases. I mean this behavior gets spotted right after updating for most of us it appears. Maybe if VR internal test users are an issue for ED they could find a community member or 2 they feel they could trust and use to assist with VR testing of release candidates.

 

Not likely I know, given ED's apparent dev culture(not a slam, just from it's communication style with it's customer base), but as someone who has been in the software/gaming industry since 1997 when I started at Sierra-Online we found leveraging some selected users from our titles communities helped bolster areas we were weak in and at 0 cost. Just seems odd to have a tool in your bag that could help improve an issue/weakness and not pull it out and use it.

 

Hope this came across correctly.

I have this problem too... Cannot move mouse cursor if the comm menu is closed. The only way to work with the cockpit is to keep the comm menu open. Hope this is fixed before Spitfire and Viggen are released.

I noticed this without having VR; this happened to me in the Bf-109 and the Mi-8: when in F2 outside view, the mouse did not work - only TrackIR did. Later, while flying the Ka-50, I didn't have that issue. Not exactly sure what caused it, but I remember not clicking the radio menu in the Ka-50...

[jazbanter]

Same thing happening here. Mouse cursor is stuck in a box in the upper left hand corner. Have to turn off mouse and use VR head gestures to click anything in the cockpit. Neck sore.

[Badger633]

Same here with Rift VR can only use head movement of cursor. Tried in a number of aircraft just the same.

[VR-Hunter]

This was really bad suprise to find mouse is unusable.

 

Workaround is to disable "mouse use" in the Setting VR menu

That only makes the blue cross disappear. The mouse values are still clipped (and/or noisy) when trying to adjust a potentiometer or other turning knob.

[AMEDooley]

Has anyone actually submitted the bug yet?

[EntropySG]

Well I cant help but think ED by now should have noticed this bug themselves..If not before the update, maybe by now..

 

Anyway, in case you dont want to roll back, a workaround seems to be to simply have the radio menu open, then the mouse works.

[BIGNEWY]

Yes I can confirm it is reported

I too am having this issue. It happens when you stop moving the cursor instead of dispersing it jumps to centre of the screen.

Same issue with DK2, works very well before. Whit open Com-Menue it works now, but i hope they fix this, have pushed a lot of Money in DCS and Hardware to get this working fine.

[Zweistein000]

 

It's not the best video quality, but it shows the issue well.

[the animaniac]

Have tested it now with the SU 25 and SU 27 and it works only with the A10C, other Planes are still stucked with this Cursor-Problem. Hope they will solve this quick.

[Rocky49]

mostly works for all a/c My only issue is the ongoing problem with disappearing com menu in F86

[viper345]

Mouse Movement on VR

 

Can confirm that my DK2 does this in every module I select, main menu is fine, soon as I enter a plane it does it, only fix I know of thus far is if your in Multiplayer, Keep the chat window open as if you were typing :)
