mrsylvestre Posted December 10, 2023 Posted December 10, 2023 Still no news? This topic comes regularly in the virtual reality subforum. The other, civilian flightsim, nicely dissociates head and mouse cursor movement and it feels so much more natural and is so much precise to have the mouse move the cursor relative to the cockpit alone, not to where one may be looking. With the current DCS implementation, it is as if on the Windows desktop, the mouse pointer would be controlled by your hand and where you look, at the same time. Very unpractical. Please ED, consider adding an MSFS-like mouse behaviour as an option. 1 5800X3D - 64GB DDR4 - Samsung 990 PRO SSD @ PCI 4.0 x 16 - 7900XTX (6950XT for posts before May 2025) - Pico 4 (VDXR)
SharpeXB Posted December 10, 2023 Posted December 10, 2023 The idea is so logical, it makes me wonder if there’s some deep game engine level reason why it’s difficult to do. Otherwise this makes so much sense. For 2D and VR. Does having the mouse mapped to the cockpit require it to be a 3D object as opposed to just an emulation of the windows mouse pointer? i9-14900KS | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO | 64GB DDR5 5600MHz | iCUE H150i Liquid CPU Cooler | ASUS TUF GeForce RTX 4090 OC | Windows 11 Home | 2TB Samsung 980 PRO NVMe | Corsair RM1000x | LG 48GQ900-B 4K OLED Monitor | CH Fighterstick | Ch Pro Throttle | CH Pro Pedals | TrackIR 5

Hicksy Posted February 22, 2024 Posted February 22, 2024 I agree with everything said here. The whole concept of the cursor position being related to head movement and to mouse movement at the same time, seems totally illogical. It's a definite spoiler for me. As for how easy it would be to do implement the option of decoupling head movement to mouse movement, it's hard to say... but it sounds easy enough! I guess it would also require some means to recenter the cursor to where your looking in VR, or you could find yourself searching for where you last left the mouse cursor! Again, it doesn't sound like rocket science. 1
II.JG1_Vonrd Posted February 25, 2024 Posted February 25, 2024 Bump... the new, more visible cursor in update 2.9.3.51704 is great but please de-link it from head movement (or make that an option). 1

If so, can you give a bit more detail as to where to put the script, how to connect it to DCS and the peripheral (mouse or PointCtrl)? Can it possibly break the game or mouse / PointCtrl?

This is a safe zone for free expression of ideas, there are no bad ideas that doesn't mean every idea will be added or can be added. In an effort to acknowledge your wishes more we have decided to start tagging threads and even joining in on the discussion if needed. This is not a high priority though so there may be some time that new wishes might go a little while before being acknowledged, but we promise to try and do better at letting you know we are watching. In the past we would just scroll through and look at them when we are looking at new features and additions to see what people are talking about, but no one knew we cared or watched, we do! The Tags: noted: This means that we have looked at your thread, we might add to the discussion and we will keep an eye on it. submitted: This means that it's an intriguing idea and will be highlighted to management and the team, this doesn't mean it will happen tomorrow or even ever but it will be highlighted for possible addition to our internal plan. already requested: This has already been requested by someone on the team or in the past by another user, it's already in the system but again, no guarantee it will be done soon or not. reported: This is just straight up a bug or issue that needs to be put into our internal reporting system and we have skipped right to that to do so. available: If a thread is marked solved then a solution is already available in the sim. Discussions: Wish List threads can be very personal, and as I said above there are no bad ideas. This doesn't mean everyone will like the idea. If you do not like the idea use the star rating on the thread image.png We do not have time to read through a 30 post thread of two people arguing why something is bad, in fact most times we will just read the first post for the idea and move on from there, if there are 30 posts and a good star rating we will just assume everyone loves the idea. Yes that means that those of you that love arguing about ideas you don't like will actually help the idea get views. So if you don't like it, don't respond, give it 1 star. And be nice to each other. https://forum.dcs.world/topic/341089-transparent-body-part/
