VR adopted keycaps ?

[Gunnars Driver]

I'm about to 3D print som things to make it easier to navigate on the keyboard when gaming DCS with VR. With earlier VR sets I could glance under the VR above the nose. but with the Varjo I just cant.

I'm thinking tactile keycaps and maybe a few "wings" to make the blind navigation on the keyboard easier.

I did not find much on this on the net but I guess I'm not the first that need these...?

I just glued little bits of plastic to the keys

I 3D printed reference points and add ons to glue on F1, F5, F9 as the first in each group. And also print screen, enter and the F-menu opener to the left of enter. And also Numpad 5.

Have to see how it works out.

Ugh I would hate to have to try and use my keyboard with DCS whilst flying in VR. I make good use of my HOTAS for button assignments along with Vaicom Pro/Voice Attack for comms. I only do single player though.

I make good use of VAICOM/Voice Attack and I'm primarily multi-player.  

I don't think tactile reference on the function keys is a bad idea though - certainly could be handy in some instances but so far when I've had to use my keyboard I've been able to make do. (Mind you, if I had a 3d printer I might reconsider)

And I do only multiplayer, but I do not think it really differs.

I have the TM warthog Throttle + Stick and all funktions is already in use.

F-functions is needed for me, most of the F1-12. Select weapons, refueling both in air and on ground/supercarrier etc. Print screen is nice when the right Kodac moment appears. Numpad 5 for resetting the VR View.
