Wicked.- Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 I think it's very individual. For me the body always looked like a small alien. Now I set it to 53 and everything looks like real world! :thumbup: I noticed a huge difference in the mirage but I can't see any change in the A10C. I typically use 45 but I've tried from 45 to 64 and don't really notice any difference. Is it just me?

BiBa Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 (edited) I've recently purchased the PiMax 4K. Compared with the other Mixed Reality 6DOF HMD, it has only 3DOF. At the beginning I deactivated the Yaw/Pitch/Roll boxes in my TrackIR leaving the X/Y/Z to compensate this defizit. I've also done the same in DCS Axis Assignment/TrackIR, and it worked! For unknown reasons the second day once I activated my TrackIR, I lost the Yaw/Pitch/Roll in my VR. It came back when the TrackIR was deactivated. I couldn't find a way to make it work again. Does anyone have an idea how to make it work again? [EDIT] I've moved the first question to "DCS and Pimax" Thread. My second question; is the zoom option deactivated in VR or am I the only one having this problem? Edited March 25, 2018 by Biba BiBa...............BigBang WIN 11-64 Pro.

uri_ba Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 No zoom in VR "as you used to know it" There is VR zoom option in the UI keys, it will zoom about x3 on center while pressed. Just bind it to a button and you are good. It's not perfect, but it's something. Very useful for checking out specific points here and there. (I.e see if the runway is clear, check a little text on an instrument, identifying a boggy) but you use it far less often then you used zoom on the 2d screen.

JazAero Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 .. Been Over this at least 5 times in the beginning of the thread.. and yet you still managed to get it wrong each time.. it is NOT IPD! that is incorrect nomenclature, and it's misleading and confusing.. it's a world scale adjustment.. and it has not a single thing to do with pupillary distance. You are adjusting the distance between rendering cameras, not your physical lateral focal distance of your eyes. the 2 are totally unrelated. Why not just pass this on to ED and stop trying to defend and erroneous position.

PiMax has released today a new update backed up with the new software Dr.Pi that evaluates your computer to see if it does the VR job well. Weird thing, I got ok on all hardware with the exception of the CPU. it seems that the 6 cores x 3.2 Ghz aren't enough for my 4k VR?! Anyway I'm still in the VR experimental phase...

You keep the camera same but you scale world. Or you keep world same and scale the camera. Yet you keep the 3D effect (camera distance) same as you say. This is something that so get confused by people defending it is "IPD". This can as well be seen with VR by just closing your other eye.

Adjusting the DCS GUI IPD is the same as Adjusting the Camera Lenses. You're not Scaling the World, the World Remains 1:1 Scale regardless, you are scaling your Virtually Represented Head. What you are doing is Adjusting the Rendering IPD, the Distance between Left and Right Eye Rendering Cameras. Larger IPD, Simulates a Larger Head, making objects seem smaller Smaller IPD, Simulates a smaller head, making objects seem larger There are at least 3 types of IPD in play here, all of them must match to give proper representation of scale.

This^, While it's still Techincally a Type of IPD, Renaming it to Camera Scale or Head Scale would be more accurate, World Scale is incorrect, the world remains the same size, only the illusion of it being larger/smaller because you are scaling yourself.

BiBa Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) ...There are at least 3 types of IPD in play here, all of them must match to give proper representation of scale. Biological IPD (Distance between your actual eyeballs Pupils) Physical IPD (Distance between VR Headset's Focal Point of Lenses) Rendering/Virtual IPD (Distance between Virtual Camera's Rendering Viewports Center)......let alone what process is behind the whole terminology dilemma, the perception for the average consumer is a change in the FOV (Field Of View). Seen from the camera perspective, augmenting or decreasing the field of view beyond the prescribed HMD angle, is like zooming from wide angle to telephoto lens. If for example your HMD has a 110° FOV, then you should adjust your ***numbers (***IPD / FOV) so that your field of sight angle in the cockpit would match your HMD°, otherwise there'll be a Wide/Tele distortion. Only the exact FOV angle that matches your HMD characteristics would guarantee the 100% real world cockpit. Example: If your HMD has a 90 ° FOV, get a bird's eye view drawing of a cockpit, place the tip of a right triangle over the pilot's head and draw equally the two 90 ° line from it, and look how far away from the dashboard is to be seen in the cockpit. Exactly that is how far your HMD may show you. Seeing more buttons from the dashboard means an extension in the angle of the FOV and thus a diminution of the reality and vice versa. In this case, it is advisable if the ED programmers set a box for the HMD FOV angle and program it accordingly instead of experimenting too much with the so-called IPD values. So from this point of view, adjusting the angle of orientation / how far your eyes perceive while holding your head straight in the cockpit would logically resume the whole thread designation debate to the FOV alternative instead of IPD. :thumbup: Edited March 29, 2018 by Biba BiBa...............BigBang WIN 11-64 Pro.
