Cant get a cursor to show up in lso/air boss after hitting Left alt C

Cant get a cursor to show up in lso/air boss after hitting Left alt C. Im in V

[Yoti]

Same thing here.... Using VR and hitting Left Alt + C does not convert mouse head movement into a visible cursor. I can see the cursor on any other view if I Left alt + C. Now the cursor does "work" even though it's not visible. Random clicking and moving around has zoomed in on a console here and there. I have tried full screen as well as it was in windowed mode to begin with. Mouse cursor is also confined to the game window. 

And yes. I have selected the options to use them in the editor and selected the role

Same here, no mouse cursor and I've done the same as above.

No mouse cursor for me in VR, do have in flat screen.

Try launcher from new panel with flat screen option (icon near launch button). You will still enter VR mode. Choose Airboss slot and take mouse pointer with Lalt+C.

I was coming to report the same problem.  I have not tried Jeremy's approach of entering VR with the flatscreen mode.  Seems really unintuitive and probably the sign that something else is wrong, so this is probably still a bug to report.

Toggle movement and mouse interactive control by pressing Right Alt + C.

(Not Left)

edit: There are posts that state that it actually is LEFT ALT + C, not RIGHT. Although the changelog says RIGHT.

It still doesn't allow you to interact with the screens in any way that I have found.

[AdrianL]

The AirBoss must be enabled on the carrier and you have entered the mission by selecting the AirBoss slot? 

 

[RafaPolit]

Are you asking or telling us?

Same here. Works in 2D no problem (and confirmed, you can only control the CVN in the Airboss "slot", so have to re-do your missions to add the LSO/Airboss slots), but I can't get the mouse cursor to show using Right or Left Alt-C when at the Airboss station in VR. Funny thing is this has been an issue at the LSO station for quite some time, but I found a little work around so you can press the WO and CUT light buttons... You need to enable the IFLOS overlay under Super Carrier "Special" settings in game, then have an aircraft at least taxi near the LSO platform so that the overlay pops up, then a white dot-mouse cursor will show and you can press those two buttons. Unfortunately, this hack doesn't work for Airboss as there's no overlay used at that station. I think this has been a long-standing bug for the LSO station for VR, pretty amazing ED hasn't fixed it, and released the Airboss station with the same problem.

me the same. No cursor in VR

Did anyone find a solution for this, or manage to get it to work in VR?

No it needs to be patched by ED to make it work in VR

Oh it is a bug then. I guess since there's been no acknowledgement of this bug then not to expect it anytime soon.  At least I know that the issue is DCS and not me, so I'll stop trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong. Thanks.

Seems this is still an issue.

I think this will be a very low priority for them and could possible never get fixed.

[Dangerzone]

2 weeks years^tm 

Will come back here when/if it's fixed and see how close I was.

But looking at this bug which is one month from 2 years still remaining I think I'm in with good odds.

I didn't think of that, but that may be the better option moving forward. Seems like these bug report threads are hit and miss as to which ones get read. Please let us know how you get on.

Nice try, but as I heard from others' expierience you will be redirected to the bugs' forum if it's confirmed DCS problem.

[maximov]

Thank you for raising the issue. The programmers already know about this and are working on solving the problem, but we don't know the deadline for fixing it yet.

[Dangerzone]

Thank you so much Maximov for responding to this thread and letting us now that it's now reported and in the system! Very much appreciated! 

[SilentSierra]

Last update don't fixed it. I'm trying to figure out if only me, but already have a ticket. Good to know.
