investigating Gunner Status doesn't pop up in VR

[scorpion80]

AS stated in the title. Using the specific key combination, in vr, nothing happens. So I have to guess, by cycling the ROE of the gunners, what state they are in.

Is there a work around? Is it just my problem?

 

Thanks in advance

Are you using Helios or have a special monitor file?

I had the same but with Voice attack, I tried calling up the AI gunners menu multiple times. Then I tried (blind) changing ROE and burst lengths. I tried the AI gunners menu again and it finally popped up and yes the ROE and burst had changed from previous voice commands (VR used).

I think in my case it is voiceattack/Vaicom having problems communicating with the CH47 module.

He's in VR.

Strange. I haven't changed from default, and mine are the same as in the Huey and the Hip.

No issues on my end, while I had to change the "target" in VoiceAttack a while back, (a year ago?), with the introduction of MT because name of the app/what VoiceAttack saw changed.

Yeah, saw that. Can still use Helios tho. That’s what I do, and my AI panel is also wired and I’m missing a few other overlays like cargo box etc. 

Really need an option from ED to move those overlays and make it a bit easier to adjust them

That's true of course, while I've read that some users have had some issues. Can't really remember what.

So, the AI panel works fine, what's your screen layout? I had to tinker a lot with the Gunner Status panel.

Well spoken, and true words! 

I don't understand why we can't have some drag and drop system for the overlays. IFLOLS and Kneeboard works, except position isn't saved for some reason. This goes for other displays too, and they are too dim.  

Cheers!

I use a 10” touch screen and a standard monitor. Have the touchscreen setup to the right of my screen. 
 

Half the Gunner panel is on the bottom left of my main screen and the other half nowhere to be found

 

Kneeboard box shows up in VR but the actual knee board only on the VR mirror. 
 

controls indicator and cargo box is nowhere to be found. 
 

Im using open knee board anyway, so at this point I’ve stopped messing with it. My gunner ROE etc. is setup with keybinds anyway, so I just cycle through

@tribundf Well, that makes sense then. If you post a screenshot of the Windows layout, I can guess where they are. 

Controls Indicator is rendered in the lower left corner of the total display area, the gunners panel lower right, and cargo top right. There seems to be issues with Kneeboard rendering. Sigh....

I think in my case it was when I was using the VHF head controller instead of the CDU to tune the vhf radio, I was having all sorts of game crashing and strangeness.
