XR Necksafer with Pimax Crystal : some Tips from my experience so far.


Recommended Posts

Posted

Just want to give something back to the DCS Community.

TIP No 1. ... Most of the issues I have had are , Being Seated, left , right, above or outside the Cockpit when I spawn on the runway !..Pressing Centre Vr or Centre Necksafer still puts me Left or Right in the Cockpit .

The Reason is not Necksafer, its the Headset ! ...Do a Test... Load DCS to the Main Menu in VR  and press Centre VR DCS Command ...Now move your head up and down, left and right. ... Is the DCS menu "Jumpin" .? Even by small amounts ?....Hold you head still and try again ?...Same result ?....Even though you think you have re-centred  the headset, its off....When that Menu Doesnt move your headset is centred and necksafer works great.

How to Centre Pimax Crystal Before DCS is Loaded ? ...After Lots of Hours (that I could be Flying ).......Download Pimax "Experience" !....add DCS.exe, and when you are ready, use the "Centre Headset" button...(Makesure you have the New Launcher in DCS Disabled)....

Tip 2.  Sorry "Run out of Time " Real Life calls !

To Be Continued ~S~

What if it’s used without the Necksafer?  

I'll need to ask the team to conduct several tests on it.

Calvin, I have found after lots of tests (without Necksafer) that the Crystal does not "Exactly".. Centre in VR....It may not be noticeable in the cockpit as we press recenter VR, its just small jumps !....Again, Test in DCS. ..In the cockpit , Recenter VR. Hold exactly Still and Recenter VR,..  See those little jumps every time ?...I dont think its minor head movements.

I think, Necksafer is so Accurate with its Layer, that it amplfies  the Crystals centering Dead Zone ..The Crystal must have a Centering Dead - Zone in its Software ?...

But I Digress.

Tip 2 . Bear with me ! Find some spare Keys/buttons/ Hats that you can use with Pimax Headset on. ...Yes ?.. if you have Rotary available it will be easier.....

Lets now go Xrnecksafer / Options/ Key bindings....To keep this simple, we will start on YAW Axis only......Manual Rotation.. Autorotation is OFF.

Now, Set your Left, Right and centre Buttons ....

Still in Keybindings,." Change Manual Rotation values" ...Bind up or down with your keys or rotaries....You will need these Keystrokes to work Perfectly when wearing your Headset...

...To Be continued ...(Are you on that PC again)...

The team is currently conducting tests with Necksafer and is awaiting their reports.

I know the team is probably busy - but if the feature of Necksafer could be implemented natively into the pimax software - I think that would be real neat.

Even better if the team could improve on it, and also do it in the vertical axis as well as the horizontal, so to look up or down low, one doesn't have to strain their neck as much.

I've gotten necksafer to work with the latest versions of everything, however once necksafer kicks in the foveated rendering seems to stop working.  Most of the FOV is blurry as if they eye tracking is no longer synched with the view or something.  Can this be addressed?
