Lobinjaevel Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 So with hotfix 3 (latest) the num 5 option to recenter to pilot doesn't work any more. Anyone know if they changed the command to something else? Still works fine for me, have you checked the key binding?
xaoslaad Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 In Hotfix 2, the FPS counter was double what it should be. Hotfix 3 shows the correct FPS. I have the same with high settings with 32GB, i7 6700k, and two 970's (only using one though since SLI isn't supported...)... SLI will undoubtedly improve much whenever it starts working, but I wonder if the CV1's higher resolution will cut it right back down.... may just have to mess with settings to get better fps.

hannibal Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) soooo amazing.. i enjoy watching the through the lens videos... it gives me an idea of how awesome the 3d is! BTW, i do NOT have oculus rift. but i notice the user zooming in at certain points while inside the cockpit.. so ppl on the forums complain about not being able to see far targets, and recommended some kind of binocular feature, IM WONDERING IF THERE CAN BE A TOGGLE BETWEEN ZOOMED AND NATURAL VIEW (so we can facilitate some kind of binocular feature) Edited October 26, 2015 by hannibal find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179

DerekSpeare Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 So with hotfix 3 (latest) the num 5 option to recenter to pilot doesn't work any more. Anyone know if they changed the command to something else? I have sort of the same issue with the view recenter. I can manually select the KP5 for a recenter, and I can bind the function to one of my sticks...BUT when trying to use it when flying it does not work. The KP5 will do it, but any of the buttons to which I bound the function don't do it. I put in a ticket and posted it on the bugs subforum, but so far there's nothing from ED. I've also found there are some other anomalous issues with controller functionality that are not present in v1.2 but are in v1.5.

atomdude Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 SLI does not work with the Oculus Rift yet... when do you think oculus will support SLI?
vicx Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Been playing a bit with VR mode outside of the cockpit. I'm experimenting with external views that offer cool (Point of View) shots in VR. In VR some of the naval units, ground units and aircraft on the ground seem like they would make really interesting environments to move around. The more I play around with this the more I want to be able to move around a lot more without losing tracking. I realise the Rift is not ideal for this but I have mine set up high on a tripod looking down so that I have the widest possible tracking space. I can stand up naturally and almost turn 360 and take a step or two in each direction. Just having a taste of this make me very interested to see what the Vive can offer in DCS in this area. Will post some DK2 videos soon to show what I'm on about.
Crunchy Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Some of you having recenter problems. Have you made sure your Num Lock key is on? I tried everything when my Key number 5 didn't work until I realized my Num Lock key wasn't switched on. JaySmizzle - No idea what you mean by not been able to find a recenter key because it's in the DCS settings for sure.

DerekSpeare Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 KP5 works just fine. It's when I try to set the very same function to a button - and it gets mapped properly - it won't work when flying. The workaround is to use a remapper like Xpadder, joytokey or SVmapper, but that's not clean for my tastes. Another question: Do all of the planes have clickable cockpits or are some not clickable? I have some planes where they are not clickable and others which are :/ Derek "BoxxMann" Speare derekspearedesigns.com 25,000+ Gaming Enthusiasts Trust DSD Components to Perform! i7-11700k 4.9g | RTX3080ti (finally!)| 64gb Ram | 2TB NVME PCIE4| Reverb G1 | CH Pro Throt/Fighterstick Pro | 4 DSD Boxes Falcon XT/AT/3.0/4.0 | LB2 | DCS | LOMAC Been Flight Simming Since 1988!

I have some planes where they are not clickable and others which are :/ That could be due to some controller or device that is conflicting. I had a Microsoft Sidewinder plugged in at the same time as a Hotas Warthog and I got conflicts. I have to unplug the Side Winder now otherwise my trim won't work on the Hotas Warhog. This is even after deleting the Sidewinders trim setting in DCS settings. You should try unplugging some Usb devices and see if you reset key works on your device then.

This is covered in a BUG thread in the DCS 1.5 BETA section. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=151041 I haven't tested the reported solution yet.
dot Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 Hi all, I've recently tried 1.5 beta again (wasn't working great after launch). I have to say that I'm impressed! the game looks and runs much better on DK2 than the previous version. I sometimes get black square flickering in the right eye, but that might be me pressing keyboard or mouse buttons (it's very easy to switch to windows of another app when oculus is in direct mode). The only thing I should mention is that colors look very washed out compared to the picture on the screen. This is probably due to DK2 pentile screen. I'm wondering if DCS guys tried playing with contrast and exposure as CV1 looks like will have crappy pentile screen as well?

That's not just you. I also have a black flickering in just the right side of the Rift. I also thought it was a browser or some other window I had open when I started DCS, but even after closing everything I get it.

DerekSpeare Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 Thx vicx - I posted my issues there. Can someone tell me where to find a list of the planes which have a "clickable" cockpit and those that do not? Any help is appreciated!

I thought this was just my device playing up and I contacted Oculus support about it. Now I know it's not the Rift, I'll have to let them know about it. What is causing this though? Because people like me might think its a fault with the DK2.

Is there a pre-made mission for a/a refueling in either the A10 or F15? not sure, i have to be honest, i dont play DCS much, im am just waiting for the oculus CV1 to be release till i actually fly in DCS. i cant do the 2d monitor nor trackIR, i have to dive in VR! i look forward to hearing about your VR air refuel experience! find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179
LuSi_6 Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Vr air refuel is very easy. You begin to understand how it's really not that big of a deal. Same with formation flying in vr it's just so much more easier with all that depth same for landings. K-4, FW190 and Mig21 is quite easy to land in VR :pilotfly: Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pedals, Oculus Rift :joystick:
