Papa1 Posted May 15, 2024 Posted May 15, 2024 Trying to get Open XR toolkit to work in vr. When DCS starts I get a box that says to hit ctrl + num2 to see menu but it won’t come up. I have tried many different keys but can’t seem to get the settings menu to come up. Just starting my vr journey so have much to learn. My rig is a 12400, 3090, 64 GB, m.2, quest2 Any advice would be much appreciated
LOW_Hitman Posted May 15, 2024 Posted May 15, 2024 (edited) By default it's ctrl + F2 (also other F-keys to toggle and so on) Please check if "disable Toolkit" isn't crossed out Mention that you have to be inside of DCS to make the menu work - for example within the game menu or in a plane Edited May 15, 2024 by LOW_Hitman i9-9900K / Bios Profile XMP2 / Rog Strix Z-390F Gaming / ASUS TUF Geforce RTX 4070Ti Super / 32GB HyperX Fury 2666 / Saitek X52 HOTAS / Pico 4
Papa1 Posted May 16, 2024 Author Posted May 16, 2024 The disable toolkit is not checked. I changed the default keybinds to the numpad keys because it was easier for me to find them with headset on. What’s happening is I get the headset going then launch dcs and when I get to sign in screen a box is up with welcome to XR toolkit you can access menu anytime by pressing ctrl+ num2 which is what I set in the toolkit. So I press ctrl and can see it highlight in the toolkit box but when I press num2 it does nothing. The little XR toolkit box follows where I am looking. I started and instant action cold and dark and the box is still with me but the ctrl + num 2 just still won’t do anything. I have played in vr when I first got the headset a couple days ago by watching a tactical pascale video and used the meta app and oculus tray tool. Then after watching a Afty86 video about setting up dcs with the open XR toolkit I tried that. All went well until I was not able to get the menu once I was in the sim. Not sure if the OpenXR toolkit would do anything more for me than the tray tool I guess I’m just trying everything to get the best resolution and performance. I’ve been play on a 4 k monitor and I know vr will never be that but although it’s amazing it’s a little blurry for me with this headset. I don’t wear prescription glasses but I do have to wear 1.50 cheaters to play on a monitor and have good clear vision. I guess I may need some sort of prescription lens for a vr headset. I’ve read alot of post on vr and I know it’s going to be tough for a new vr guy to try and get going with it but it’s just so amazing I’m going to keep trying. Anyway thank you for the reply
ldwater Posted May 16, 2024 Posted May 16, 2024 I'd check the obvious thing like num lock, or change the num key to something else in the toolkit just incase it doesn't register those keys for some reason. I use the arrow keys since they are easy to 'feel' for on the keyboard. The fact that the XR toolkit menu shows means that its running, so you just need to find a key combination that works in DCS
Papa1 Posted May 16, 2024 Author Posted May 16, 2024 I will check for numlock and try some different combinations of keys after work today. 1
