Raven (Elysian Angel) Posted March 5, 2024 Posted March 5, 2024 Hey, Lots of games sport a clock (displaying RL local time) on their main menu, and in my opinion DCS could also use one. Especially in VR it is really easy to completely lose yourself and any awareness of the outside world. A clock would help with reminding us to take a break now and then for example, as flights tend to last quite a bit longer than you realise (at least mine do): "time flies when you're having fun!". So there goes, my wish for a (digital) clock on the DCS main menu Thanks! 1 Spoiler Ryzen 7 9800X3D | 96GB G.Skill Ripjaws M5 Neo DDR5-6000 | Asus ProArt RTX 4080 Super | ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E GAMING | Samsung 990Pro 2TB + 990Pro 4TB NMVe | VR: Varjo Aero VPC MT-50CM2 grip on VPForce Rhino with Z-curve extension | VPC CM3 throttle | VPC CP2 + 3 | FSSB R3L | VPC Rotor TCS Plus base with SharKa-50 grip | Everything mounted on Monstertech MFC-1 | VPC R1-Falcon pedals with damper | Pro Flight Trainer Puma OpenXR | PD 1.0 | 100% render resolution | DCS graphics settings Win11 Pro 24H2 - VBS/HAGS/Game Mode ON

I'm using voice activated Siri to get local time, much to the chagrin of the other people in my voice chat. I once wrote a steamVR overlay to always display a local clock in your environs, but that was long ago, and I need to see if it still works. Edited March 6, 2024 by cfrag
Freakmeister51 Posted March 6, 2024 Posted March 6, 2024 Try Baileywa’s user file list. He has something similar to that for download.

Any menu while you're not actually flying, would be grand. 3 hours ago, Freakmeister51 said: Try Baileywa’s user file list. He has something similar to that for download. Sure, but that's an overlay that also shows in flight. I'm not a fan of overlays personally 1 Spoiler Ryzen 7 9800X3D | 96GB G.Skill Ripjaws M5 Neo DDR5-6000 | Asus ProArt RTX 4080 Super | ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E GAMING | Samsung 990Pro 2TB + 990Pro 4TB NMVe | VR: Varjo Aero VPC MT-50CM2 grip on VPForce Rhino with Z-curve extension | VPC CM3 throttle | VPC CP2 + 3 | FSSB R3L | VPC Rotor TCS Plus base with SharKa-50 grip | Everything mounted on Monstertech MFC-1 | VPC R1-Falcon pedals with damper | Pro Flight Trainer Puma OpenXR | PD 1.0 | 100% render resolution | DCS graphics settings Win11 Pro 24H2 - VBS/HAGS/Game Mode ON
