LuSi_6 Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Again I'll ask are you using nvidia dsr for the down sampling? me? No, just Nvidia settings, custom resolution for rift and monitor to 2560*1440, same res ingame and go. thats all I did :pilotfly: Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pedals, Oculus Rift :joystick:
rcjonessnp175 Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Ok cool thanks brother I7 4770k @ 4.6, sli 980 evga oc edition, ssdx2, Sony 55 inch edid hack nvidia 3dvision. Volair sim pit, DK2 Oculus Rift.
hannibal Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 Rift is now set up and running very well. Spotting air targets is no issue, ground targets a big no-no. Dog fighting is incredible as you have to move in a 1:1 ratio. WWII fights ends up in sitting 170°deg to your keybord and you shoot the enemy down within 10min or your neck et tiered! THIS IS JUST INSANE GOOD! I'll attach some screens, rendered with 2560*1440 and downsampled to Rift display. Enjoy show some pilot bodies!! (Ka50, Su27, P51D has pilot bodies...) find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179
Lobinjaevel Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 What's the hit on frame rate? And is that by using nvidia dsr? I also have a 4770k, but 780 in SLI. Im running everythin on medium with the Rift. Since i got less stuttering from bumpin' up the resolution, it feels much better, havn't measured it tho. I did the same as LuSi_6, just changed the resolution in the Nvidia control panel and ingame.
LuSi_6 Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 DCS and Oculus Rift- Cockpits and gauges Hi, I made a little gallery of almost all cockpits and gauges so you can see how they look like in Oculus Rift DK2. Also I would like to make a list of useable planes: The most intense plane: The K-4! The Cockpit is so small, you really feel like falling out of the plane! Easiest to use plane (DCS Module): No.1 : Dora. Big gauges, organized cockpit No.2 : K-4, again big gauges! No.3 : P-51 Mustang. Gauges are smaller and a little harder to read than in the german planes No.4 : F-86 Sabre. Same as the P-51 bt new cockpit reflections are a mess No.5 : Mig-21 (quite hard to use without a keybord...) Flaming Cliffs 3: No.1: Su-27! Gauges and HUD are bigger than in other planes, easy to read no number 2, instuments in the F-15 are hard to read, font size in the HUD is to small Ground attack: only possible with IR TV (SU-25T and Maverics in A-10 A & C) A2A: WWII planes easy, no problem spotting targets, BVR works best in the SU-27. Here is the whole gallery, enjoy! http://imgur.com/a/zcG7G#36 :pilotfly: Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pedals, Oculus Rift :joystick:

FlyingHighAU Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) nice work! Btw on the Dora, whats with the red/brown outline on the cockpit canopy, where the metal bits meet the sky? That looks like some kind of red/blue 3D that old school movies and books used, don't tell me the oculus uses that to enhance the 3D? (I can see that its in other places as well, but most noticable between sky and canopy metal) Each side of the image looks kind of blurry, I would have expected that the each image be very clean like on a normal monitor, except each eye a different angle. This looks like it destroys colors as well as readability. Edited January 11, 2015 by FlyingHighAU

This looks like it destroys colors as well as readability. This is the image as displayed on the Rift screen. The lenses not only distort the image, but distort each color differently. When viewed through the lenses, everything looks normal.
hannibal Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Hi, I made a little gallery of almost all cockpits and gauges so you can see how they look like in Oculus Rift DK2. can you comment on the 3d-ness? how is the depth of objects? when you look outside the cockpit, do you have some sort of sense of vertigo? do things outside of the cockpit look far? find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179
timone1002 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 oculus rift dk2 mouse wont work for start screen Hello, i was looking at some forums a few months old about this problem and they didnt have solutions, can anyone get the mouse to work with oculus in dcs? cant click the start menu to fly :((

timone1002 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 ok i found out you have to turn off full screen, but now when i jump in the cockpit the camera view is almost in the front dash and the the camera rotates vertically into the canopy and wont move back down, after i crash and jump into another plane the camera stays forward and head tracking works, but the view is in the front dash, is there away to recenter the camera with the oculus? the home button doesn not work like it does with freetrack
timone1002 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I tried that, it works for after you switch planes, but when first starting up any mission, the camera goes to the canopy, and 5 wont work
Random Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Check for control conflicts. Sounds like you may have the vertical view control bound to something that is interfering
timone1002 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 as soon as i swith to another plane, or if i restart the mission it works fine, it just happens the first time entering the mission
Jamovich Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Oculus Rift and Myo Armband This would be very cool to use to solve the problem of wearing a VR goggle and not being able to see the keyboard/Joystick/HOTAS to activate switches/controls: http://ops.bestofmedia.com/us/ooyala_frame.html#Jrc2FxcjrKyjlJONfkYEwKRgRegRE4ox I hope such a device will get support in DCS World/ DCS world 2 Just my 2 cents
simo1000rr Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 hello guys , does the Rift work in multiplayer games or only in single-player mission??

The improvement it makes to iRacing and the DK2 is quite nice. I'd like to see what can happen with DCS.

timone1002 Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 oculus camera view pans up in any plane on mission start Hello im having a problem with the camera view when using the oculus rift for any module in dcs world. any time i first launch a mission or training mission when i press okay the camera view pans to the ceiling and NUM5 and the home button will not center the view, i have to press left shift + r to restart the mission and then it starts centered, and the num5 button works to center the view, the problem is if i restart the mission in training there is no longer voice overs, and if i restart the mission in the campaign it wont count the mission as completed if i beat it. The other solutiuon is to jump to a copilots plane. anyone know how i can fix this?

Then launch dcs and see if there is any difference.
