Finally! I get to fly DCS again!

[Moxica]

..and it is so good to be back.
For several months, due to tracking problems, swimming image (and a few other "inconveniences") DCS has been totally un-flyable to me.
Today, I found a(nother) software and firmware update for the Pimax set.
Installed it, and everything got even worse.
Tech support answered within five minutes:
"Re-install, but this time, flush all settings."
Now, I'm not even using Mbucchia's software.
(Had one instance of severe "swimming" but restarted PC, and from what I can tell. 
It's all kosher.)
Goddammit, guys. You have no idea. The struggles. The frustrations.
I once chewed my left arm off at the elbow. -Didn't help.
I also have been known to utter "grrr" just before sleep. Didn't help either.
Update, and a kind advice from tech support did.
-I'm having a beer now. A large one. Cheers!

Moxica, I was having this "swimming" image as well but the newest Pimax Play and firmware seems to have resolved.  Curious though, how did you "flush" the settings?  Enjoy your beer!

There is a radio/tickbox at the beginning of the installation. Tick that!
Not sure if the word "flush" is used. but there are only two boxes to tick, and one is allready ahem.. ticked.

Sad to say, that did not last very long..
Swimming is back, and Pimax not remembering room setting.
..rolling back to 1.39.2

Did you do a new style room set up in the menu that appears when you hold both volume buttons down for a few seconds?  That's a brand new feature in the last three or so P-Play versions. 

You don't need controllers to navigate, a green dot appears, place it over a menu item and tap a volume button, which acts as a mouse select click.

You should ultimately end up surrounded with hexagonal green walls around you, your headset will learn the room as these panels disappear when you aim and allow it to learn, on all sides.  It's OK to take the HMD off and owl aim it behind, up and down.

Most important is set your headset on the floor when it wants to learn the floor level for a few seconds to stabilize than tap the volume button to select. 

Now every time you fire up the software set the HMD on the floor while the pimax play fires up and turns green with a connection, you should be perfectly positioned on the asteroid and have solid tracking in your games every time.

Thank you.
..Yes, I'm aware of that. Except the bit about the floor. I mean.. really? 
Tested again just now.
Rolling back again.

Regarding the room setup data not being saved, the developers are currently working on it.
