VR: Pilot View doesn't switch to gunsight, when gunsight is turned on.

I selected the option to move to the gunsight when it was switched on, but nothing happens when I do, no view change. I will continue to test, I may have missed something but as far as I can see at the moment it does not work my end.

 

This is on a MP server.

I'm also in VR.

I was playing around with this, and for me, it won't shift if the gunsight can't actually turn on (i.e. if I'm sitting on the ground, cold). Otherwise, it remains in the default view position. I can't speak to the tutorials as I haven't started in on them yet, but this is what I've seen just fooling around in the mission editor.

The setting has no effect in VR, may be intentional. IIRC it's like that in other airplanes too.

Flying in VR, so can't speak to 2D...  I've tried both settings in "Special".  Switch to gunsight view when gunsight is powered on, and also Always use gunsight view.  Pilot view is always left/default view.  This DID work in the included Training mission on cockpit familiarity, but doesn't work on my own "free flight" missions (nothing other than flying waypoint to waypoint around channel map with AI.

This is correct as is, the wonder of VR means you can physically lean across 🙂

Ok thanks! Makes sense... Sucks being left eye dominant. Good thing I have wheels on my chair. I’ll mess around with recenter VR view and deliberately shift Left when I set it, so normal seating should be closer to the sight.

In VR using Pimax 9axis sensor and motion compensation I need that setting specified in the DCS settings to provide at least half the width of the pilots seat to provide alignment with the sight.

 

NB: I have since found by assigning a POV 4 position control to the cockpit camera view it is easy to set virtually any pilot position in the cockpit
