Missed intro to topgun kinda

[Indianajon]

Hey Greg, quick one for you. The first video (mission 2) in vr has me placed inside the hut for the duration.  Assuming that's not right. 

[Reflected]

just use the mouse to pan around and get out of the trailer  I can't control the default camera position

[OldBadger]

I have this issue too.  
I tried moving the mouse but nothing moves. Are there DCS settings that need to be enabled. Don’t normally use outside views so not sure.

just for the record having a total blast and am only on the intro mission, well done for what will clearly be a cracking campaign as well as a good education tool

Hmm interesting. Do you have external views enabled in your settings? In my 10 years of playing dcs I’ve never not been able to pan the camera with the mouse and zoom with the wheel. It’s definitely not mission related. What if you press ctrl f11 and use the free camera to move around?

I do now. I managed to get the mission viewed firstly in non VR by using F12 then CTR F11 then did the same in VR, but still no movement with the mouse.  I could move about with keyboard but not the mouse. Maybe I have something not set correctly in DCS or maybe a conflict with my Waco Tablet but I have completed the mission now so moving on.

Thanks for helping though.

got to be some sort of conflict, the mouse control works for me both in 2D and VR. Do you have external views enabled in your settings like the briefing suggests?

Ok here is what I am seeing in VR through my Quest 3.

 

using F11 and F12 views:

In a mission outside Mig Killers, both these views work and also allow movement with the mouse.

in Mig Killers ‘Intro 1’ both work and mouse movement works.

in Mig Killers ‘intro 2’ both F11 and F12 work with NO mouse movement but the bizarre thing is that F11 and F12 views can only be selected from the keyboard and not when the keys are mapped to my PFC Yoke. At first I thought the Yoke was disabled however the exit mission button on the yoke still works.

Just to be clear the tests above that worked used the same mappings on the PFC Yoke.

Bizarre!

As I said before I have now watched the mission and am moving on to enjoy the rest of the campaign but just thought I would give the result of what I found as it may help others (or not).

It's probably because in intro 2 there is no ownship, only ground AI. None of these view settings are enforced in the mission. (I couldn't do it even if I wanted to)

[OldBadger]

Not a problem.

I am really enjoying it as it stands.

Im in VR and the mouse moves the view for me, check you haven’t deleted the bind in controls.

Possibly, TBH I  am not entirely sure of which mappings are needed. Will check though thanks.
