btaft Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Hi, I recently received the Vive as a gift and have been exercising it in DCS. One thing I have not been able to do is to get the VR zoom to work. I found the item in the control configuration under UI and mapped it to a joystick button but when I press the button nothing happens. Is there something else I am missing. Any help or insight is appreciated. Kind Regards, Brett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MainSail Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 You have to restart DCS after assigning a button for zoom. Did you do that ?

btaft Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 I thought I had but I will give it another shot. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btaft Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 Didn't seem to work. Does it need to be held down? Any other switch used or zoom functions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btaft Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 Just a little update. The zoom function works as expected in DCS 1.5 but doesn't work in 2.0. In fact the pixel density slider also doesn't seem to work in 2.0 or at least has no noticeable effect. Not sure if these functions are not active yet in 2.0 in the vive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickD Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 unless something has changed in the last month , VR Zoom doesnt work with HTC VIVE. only Occulus edit; you are reporting it works... please describe how you did it because mine still doesnt and it was known as not compatible a month ago It was added in some patch within the past month or so. I'm assuming that 2.0 isn't updated yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
