@ Firecat, @ Miles, thank you guys!

 

Im out of Toronto, ON.

 

I've read thru the posts, is there anything else you need from me @ this point?

 

Hi NatoAviator, it's just a case of being patient and keeping watch on MilesD Now Serving posts.

One question that came to mind. Has this been tested with WMR headsets, and how does it do with WMR forgetting who own the "mouse"?

 

Also, Miles, if you can edit the thread title it might be good to put the serving #s there if its not a hassle.

New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog. TrackIR, HP Reverb (formermly CV1)

Good point, Not tested with WMR to my knowedle, Only the CV1, Vive, Vive Pro, and Pimax. The Rift S should be getting the run through the beginning of the week. As soon as I get the feedback I will report back. Does the standard mouse behave differently with WMR if your not using the controllers?. And I will edit the title as you suggest.

That makes sense for the Now Serving and general information, then I could just update the first post. I contacted NineLine to see if I was breaking any rules by even using the forum in this this way, but I have not herd back. I will reach out again with what you suggested.

Thanks,

Miles

OK, I will assume that I got trolled. Is there a "Now Serving" post up yet?

Hope to be posting 11 thru 20 tomorrow night.

I took some suggestions from you guys and edited the first post in this thread to be more informative, to include ordering instructions and "Now Serving line numbers.

 

I will also add a blurb about PointCTRL still being a work in progress, and more of an enthusiast product than a refined commercial product for the masses. But it does work well. Most future improvements will be firmware updates.

 

Thanks,

Miles

The only potential issue I see with WMR is that they (at least my Odyssey) like brighter playspaces for tracking. If most of the user's light comes from natural light and not LED sources, there would be an issue with IR pollution.

 

I've never had an issue with the mouse, but I also don't use the WMR controllers for anything in DCS.

No troll intended, just meant that I'm watching every post in this thread for the new Now Serving posts. Sorry for the confusion.

Hi Miles,

 

I don't currently have a WMR headset, but I'm on the list for the Reverb, and I know this is an issue that has been brought up.

 

Maybe some guys with the reverb or O+ or other WMR headsets could chime in on the mouse "focus" issues.

I just ordered the Rift S for testing with PointCTRL, I don't think I will be able to use it with my IPD, but It should work for testing.

miles, zero mouse issues with rift s. For O+ some have had issues with the mouse disconnecting when starting DCS from the desktop then donning the HMD. Starting DCS from within the WMR interface seems to solve the issue for them.

 

Thanks for that info! Oh well, maybe I can make an adjustable IPD mod kit with the one I just purchased. I assume the software IPD slides each render inward and outward, Maybe that coupled with a manual adjustment would work. I have never really gotten into the weeds with the Headsets. I'm sure I will be taking it apart within 10 minutes of opening the box.

 

On another note here is the Index Frunk mount with the Vive Pro mount for perspective. I am going forward with a new PCB design for flat face mounting unit for those that would work better for. It will be compatible with the current FCUs.

 

 

Thanks,

Miles
