Been using VR for about a year and love it.
A big problem is when you take your headset off for a phone call or comfort break.
You come back and your view is screwed-up. Only solution I have found is log and come back.
Not great if you are carrying kills.
-
Do you have a button mapped to reset or center your view? I'm not sure I've ever had to re log after taking my headset off.
-
No I don't have a button for that.
Which key is it?
-
Everyone with VR should map Tracker Center, it's listed under the view commands. It's the same AH key that centers TrackIR. :aok
-
Are you using rift with touch controllersor htc vive? If its rift with touch controllers just press the menu button on the right controller then click reset view.
-
Using Vive Pro (great product).
I have mapped the centre tracking key, but it is sub-optimal because it goes to what AH3 thinks is centre not my centre setting.
Also removing the headset often (not always) results in loss of headphone sound. On/off the Vive will sometimes resolve this, but not always.
Still loving my VR are experience despite the early adopter clunkiness.
-
Also..not using controllers. Joystick and thruster for me.
-
With the Rift and your "not my center" happens...if Gun Sight is trending to the right (IE you see the leftest part of sight....lean right an hit Tracker Center. There is also a "resetv" command that might correct a audio issue. AGREED!!!! Even with the "growing pains" of VR development....still better than 2d! What times we live in...no? Loong way from Atari :banana:

The center tracking command resets the head position in AH. The head position is adjusted with F10. When you set the head position you want with F10, the center key will restore it.

er...wearing a headset....keys are not available to me.

Same her,Brother!

Logging and restarting is still my best option.
It really should not be so hard for VR users.
Let's have some simple intuitive fixes to these issues please.
We pay enough for you to do the research not the subscribers.

Might be an issue with "VIVE". Rift works just fine as described :uhoh All I do is move myself to where I want it to look like..hit F10 then recenter button. If memory serves, there have been several posts here about Vive and Acer headsets NOT keeping center very well? :uhoh Believe ATLAU had this issue posted before? Under VR in Preferences do you have the Auto VR Mode Swap checked? Dont know if that would even be the issue...(i have it unchecked)when I take my headset off and then back on...sometimes the "engine restart sounds" occur...followed usually by Errors about automatic time off of sounds isnt happening? Might even be a Graphics Driver? With NVIDIA if I am not up to date, I get more little quirks in VR.

For WMR headsets bad lighting makes the centering issue worse.

I generally fly in a fairly dark room. I had some tracking issues with the Rift S with lights off. I got a little ir illuminator on Amazon, pointed it at the ceiling. Problem solved.

Good tip. I'll have to try that out
-
Had that issue since last Occulus update....now I know how to correct that..THANKS Drano :rock
-
I can't take credit for coming up with it! Read it on a forum somewhere. The Rift S has internal cameras that do the tracking and they see IR light pretty well. I verified it using the pass thru feature where you can use the cameras to switch from VR to be able to look around the room without taking off the headset. In the dark room with the IR illuminator on I can see everything. So the cameras see what they need to see to track my head.

Can you make the VR logon a bit less clunky please?
Once my headset is on I dont want to have to take it off.

Don't understand what's the issue. On the Rift S I am not using the touch controllers for anything in AH unless I need to use the pass thru thing to look around the room but that's not on the outskirts of clear vision. Typing is a problem. Voice attack works great for various commands but regular typing yields a lot of word salad more often than not. I end up deleting stuff it types or tries to with a command that works great for deleting!
I'm still using the mouse tho. That's easy enough to find in front of me. At logon I just save both of my creds on the login screen, move the mouse cursor dot to click OK and click the left mouse button. That's how I'm navigating the menus, hangar, etc., with the headset on. Easy enough. Bring up the clipboard and the mouse cursor appears. The clipboard is up at login. Just point your head to move the cursor at the thing you want to click on and click the mouse. Bingo.

Hey Brother, I feel you... but when that happens, I press the main menu button (for rift it is right touch controller menu button) not sure for vive. But when the positioning is messed up, press that menu and instead of clicking "quit app?" Click "reset sensor tracking " or "reset view".
Do that and you are right as rain...
You are a graveyard killer my friend.. A true Ace of Aces.. His prop doesnt start spinning until after 2am... pst that is... Pleasure to fly with you good sir.. sorry for my illness... Im suffering from non stop Shotdownism..

And yeah I just have the same center view button for VR mapped to my stick that I had mapped for TIR before. That way I didn't have to relearn anything. In my case at login the clipboard is usually way high and close up to use so I just click the reset view button and it's back to where I can use it.
