Some issues I am having while in VR is I use the vive controller to click something, like the circular controls for the MFDs and I can't click them back after cycling them. Need some help with the button setup or finding the proper left and right clicks on the vive wands.

 

Second, is out of gameplay, i need to use the mouse to click on menu options or to get in game, is there a way to disable this so i can use the wands?

 

Third, I have the the thrust master t16000m hotas and on the throttle, it has a mouse like index control, however, it doesn't let me utilize this to mouse around the pit or click items, need some help with that as well

 

Fourth, any profiles available to the hotas for the f-18?

 

Thank you for your help :)

For the mouse controller on the twcs throttle, you may have to map the X and Y axis part of the ministick inside the Axis command section in dcs control designated as TDC axis

Are you making things unnecessarily difficult for yourself ? Picking up and replacing wands ? Risking inadvertent button pushes doing so ? Dealing with all the ancillary problems you outlined ? May i suggest a trackball ?

I was looking for the axis, but perhaps I over looked it. I’ll have to look for that again and see if I can find it. I’ll look again for it, if I do find it, that would help me out greatly with a majority of my issues.

Well, I guess the above post would solve a lot of that. Mainly having to use the wands and then not use them in order to push buttons and then flip switches back and forth, which I still can’t figure out. The more difficult thing is that my play area is set up a bit away from my desk which inhibits me from making quick moves since I have to roll back to the mouse to click and unclick items, so it sounds like it may be more work, but using the wand for me would be easier as I just lay the right hand on my lap and it doesn’t get touched.

TDC function is not the same as mouse function . TDC is confined to DDI . I have read of the left/right problem with the wand in the VR forums , but do not recall a fix being confirmed . One suggestion , offered but never responded to AFAIK , was to rotate the wand upside-down and press the same switch .

 

As to using the ministick as a mouse , generally speaking that is possible , although in my experience it is far from satisfactory as establishing an ideal cursor speed is very difficult . I have no experience with the T1600 , so YMMV .

 

I do get what you are saying re being too far from the desk-I have the same problem with the joystick and throttle ! Got a fix in the works , but in the meantime I'll continue to fly with less-than-ideal ergonomics .

 

If the problems persist with the wand , I'd still consider a trackball in the lap :)
