HMD alignment in VR

[Sprool]

Im struggling with the HMD in VR, its way too high up. If I go through the alignment procedure, on the ground (cold start) or in the air (hot start) it still ends up way too high so I end up looking out the cockpit with my chin on my chest to move the hmd centre to pick a target. Can it be shifted downwards?null

bind a button to Center VR headset? it's NumPad 5 by default.

I have a button bound for that, it centres the cockpit view, the HMD remains annoyingly high up, its linked tot he headset spacial position, not aligned with the cockpit.

Have you ever fiddled with views.lua ?

Any mods installed?

[Sprool]

Never touched views.lua. No mods concerning F-18. What is interesting is if I align hmd in flat screen mode it all works fine, right int he centre of view as i look around with the mouse. When I do same in VR the HMD display remains elevated about 25 degrees too high, and changing cockpit camera viewpoint doesnt alter that.

Well a kind person on Redditt posted a workaround, which means you have to remove the black visor thing that blocks out the light, then on the Quest 3 and Bobovr halo head strap it allows the lenses to be rotated down a small amount to bring the hMD centre back into alignment. Takes a little bit of gtting used to, flying without the visor, but at least I have a VR HMD that can be used.

that's just strange ... no wonder i couldn't work out what was wrong if it was hardware specific .. glad you got it "working"
