I recommend others to go check these missions that CptTrips has designed/created...

All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC

They do with mine.  Vive.  I only fly VR.

Are you having a problem?

I'd post on the VR or support forum to see if they can help troubleshoot. 

There should be no reason they wouldn't work with VR.  I've played most of them on a my Vive with no problem. 

Weird.

I was able to fly for allies and axis in the spit5 vs 109f mission

Great fun!

Can the fight be sooner in the mission?

So after I get shot down in one of these missions how do I relaunch it without having to completely exit the game?

Thanks

You really think the merge takes too long?

So I kinda based that on giving them time to see the message that it is cold merge,
also for some odd reason, when you air-start  it starts you with your gear down and your engine off.  :O  I wanted you to have time to raise your gear and get your RPM/speed stabilized.

Also wanted to give them time to visually acquire the oncoming targets and prep their brain.

How much shorter do you want the merge?

I might make you a couple of custom versions, but I don't think I would like to go back and update all 64 of the current ones.

What would be your perfect setup preference?  If I was going to make you 3 varients, what planes do you want?

I don't have the UI in front of me, but

first you'll get a rating screen if you have never rated that mission yet.  Either rate it and hit OK, or cancel.

Now, on the "Staged Missions" menu, select "Select Missions"  (or after the rating you might already be there....)

There might be more that one mission listed for that terrain.  Select the one you want and hit OK, and it should start.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

Doing that from memory so I think it mostly correct.

Great fun CptTrips, thanks for taking the time to make these. Wanted to try just one and ended up trying 5 or 6.
