I don't know if you can do it in AH. But some people run DCS on Google Cardboard. If you google it you will find.

HiTech for the Vive, are you using SteamVR?

I think the Vive can also use OpenVR as an API.

I'm using openvr, I was assuming it is the api end of steamvr. If not how is it different.

Just updated to the latest beta and I'm seeing a distinct stutter or pause every 1-2 seconds in the rift.  Is anyone else experiencing this?

I've been flying the current beta in VR this weekend and it's fantastic.

Feedback on a couple of issues:

There is an issue with 3D clouds which spin or rotate as I move my head.

Black out due to injured pilot:  This is VERY disorientating in VR to the point of nausea.  Whilst I'm sure disorientation is realistic it's likely to cause nausea for folk not used to VR because the pilot's head movement suddenly gets detached from the players own movement.  I actually quite like the effect but I'm not sure it's 'best practice' for VR.

Are you using an Inateck usb3 card? I was hearing the usb reconnect every fews seconds along with a stutter in the game. I unplugged the rift headset from the inateck usb3 card that oculus recommends and plugged it into the onboard usb3 that oculus says is no good. The stutter and usb reconnect went away. The sensor is still plugged into the inateck card.

There is still some stutter on the CV deck but I think that's a different issue. The rift does a nice job with frame spacing, even 30 fps looks smooth. With default settings and AA off I usually get 90 fps and it's very smooth.

Sorry, should have fed back, my issue was indeed a sensor connection problem since solved.

Just a thought.  Would it be possible to adjust the eyepoint (back/forward/left/right/up/down) with key bindings?  I think this could be beneficial in VR and to regular users.

Do you mean the home view point? I assume you also know about Ctrl F4?

I mean to change where the default view point is, like adjust it as if you were moving the seat in your car (or 'plane!)

I just ran into another minor issue.  In the hangar view on the CV (in VR) the clipboard hangar is zoomed close in and I can't move it.
