Just wondering if VR has actually made you better? I have watched tracker IRs view the rear section a lot easier than VR. Being able to keep eyes on without changing views is very helpful in many situations.
Have you noticed you have gotten better with VR or just stick to it because immersion and depth?
-
Better
It takes a bit to adjust..I had to learn to look through the gunsight and use as just a reference
But after that the immersion makes some great deflection shots
Spotting pre icon range is better imo also

Definitely better. Can’t get any closer to reality with anything else. There’s definitely an adjustment period, as Eagler mentioned. Once used to it, you’ll never go back.
-
Better for sure. Depth perception is vastly improved. Immersion is complete. No longer looking at the cockpit on a monitor---you're sitting in the cockpit. I think even my historically pathetic gunnery is improved.
It does take some getting used to looking around. The hat switches still work.

Better, BY FAR! I set my Niece up with VR, when she just started :devil She held her own, against more than a few Seasoned Players...so YES Better! I blame SIS!!! :rofl

Seems gunsight center can be off easier in vr
I punch the center front view button repeatedly to counter this when in combat

One of the drawbacks is the limited FOV, it makes high angle high closure rate deflection shoots alittle tougher for me. I don't think the difference from IR to VR is as significant as Hatswitch to IR.
VR is a blast, as a fighter pilot it is an overall net benefit. I think its kind of a pain when level bombing and GVing. Worth a try though, makes the game quite abit more immersive

Having a tough time with aim as well as watching different pad views in vr. Everything seems zoomed in, almost too much. In VR are you able to adjust your FOV? Have had a rough go so far

Not really, its locked at 90 and can only be zoomed in with the normal zoom function.

You can change your head position in each view though. Lean back as far as the view goes and hit F10. if you like it move on to the next one. I still use a pinky switch to raise up in the seat to look over the nose without having to jump out of my seat!

What Fugi said about f10
I had to do all views including straight up on all planes
Default was way too close

Thanks. It has helped some with recentering and moving back.
I did some digging through the forums. Using left and right to check 6 views made more sense for my mind while in vr so it wasn’t so disorienting. I’m sure it is just practice and muscle memory. Appreciate the help, the little fine tuning details make the biggest difference once you are familiar with this game or any game in general

Centered on which eye?
Also you can save your default position with F10.

It'd be great if the VR mirror would display the right eye. Currently it displays the left. Reason being there are quite a few birds that have the gunsight offset to the right eye. The LW birds especially although I discovered the P47D-11 also is offset to the right. In order to record game capture you have to shift your cockpit view way to the right in order to be looking through the gunsight straight thru the left eye in your recording. Unnaturally right.
As far as hps adjustment in VR, I used to be able to pause VR and use the arrow keys to adjust when I had an Oculus. Can't seem to do it with WMR. I just move around and F10 it now.

Right I guess but seems like I am looking through the soght with both
F10 doesn'thelp with center as the center reference is different each time you look away and then back to target
That's why I punch the center view button repeatedly to keep center centered

Eagler that's just part of the whole VR thing. Your gonna shift around in your chair ever so slightly every time you look around and that throws off your center. I just have a button mapped to center tracker and yeah---it gets hit a lot.

Yep that's correct

Makes sense Drano.
There have been a few times where I have saved views while in a plane then take my headset off during climb out and just fly with pad views to find that the site is usually placed further to the right. I wondered why it was off. I would recenter from monitor and have a problem when vr was placed back on. If I dont move the site and save view while in vr it is a problem. I thought up until I read this post today that maybe my brain was not trained yet to match up the sites from both eyes. The default position on the site looks like your looking at it from a angle where you cant see the entire site. Thought I was just being a bobblehead every time I lined up a shot. I also now have the Center button set on my X52 Pro as C right by the thumb hat switch.
I Think I have my stick setup button wise dialed in. If anyone needs a layout for X52 pro. Still need to get a usb extension because my Saitek pedals cord is not long enough, still plays but get kicked out often.
Aim is still for the birds.

You don't have to re-save the view every time, just re-center. Look in the map controllers tab for a command "tracker center" or assign the key command ctrl+F4. Map a button to that by double clicking the button you want, select that command, click OK, done. Now every time your head position is a little off, hit that button and you're back at center.

That is how I have it set already with center track on stick :salute
